Bunny Bakes

This place is truly Awesome. Capital A. I don’t throw that around lightly. Rachel, Griffin, and Joe were working while I was there, and all three of them were genuinely warm and welcoming. Not in a corporate-script “have a great day” kind of way, but in a real, curious, human way. They actually wanted to know who I am. You can feel the difference. The coffee was fantastic. I got a specialty latte that somehow tasted like dessert without drowning out the coffee. It was definitely sweet, but the espresso still showed up, which is a balance a lot of places miss.

Wow. I lived in and still work in the Bay Area where you might see comparable prices. The difference is that the quality matches most times. My $6 muffin was frozen inside which, I’m not even sure how you do that? Maybe moving them from a different location on a cold winter morning? Regardless, charge high prices but make sure the product matches. Do better. ✌🏻

Bunny Bakes in Squirrel Hill is an absolute gem! This warm, welcoming bakery is named after Bernita “Bunny” Buncher, whose legacy of inclusion is beautifully reflected in everything they do. Their mission shines through the moment you walk in—an accessible, supportive environment where adults of all abilities are valued and empowered. The baked goods are exceptional (and kosher pareve!), and their coffee and drinks are dairy and Cholov Yisroel, making this a perfect stop for anyone seeking high-quality treats with thoughtful certification. I have to shout out my personal order: the Honey Bunny Latte. It’s smooth, sweet, and truly a must-try! If you’re in Squirrel Hill, Bunny Bakes is a spot you need to experience. Warm people, amazing mission, and delicious food—what more could you want?
