Great spot!! Great eateries, wonderful place to watch the games, tons of outdoor seating, many food options, tons of places to shop, and ample parking. Very lucky to live close by to have such a great "shopping center" like this!

A great place for community gatherings as there's so many different options for food, all of them delicious. In the main gallery of BKSQ you can mobile order and have any of the restaurants deliver the food right to your table which is super convenient. I personally love the greenery and design of the space as there are plenty of places to sit all with outlets which is great if you want to get work done. The atmosphere is always super welcoming and just a great space overall to hang out, meet friends, rewind after work or class, or grab a bite of delicious food.

Bakery Square in East Liberty consists of office buildings, stores, and restaurants. The main footprint is on one side of Penn Ave with a sky bridge across Penn Ave to office buildings. Just some of the office tenants include Google and Philips while retail stores include Anthropologie, Free People, and West Elm and restaurants include Panera and Tako among others. There is limited parking in front of each establishment but a multi-level covered garage is on the property. I like the concept and the stores are inviting in both merchandise, cleanliness, and layouts. That said, there is community concern, rightfully so, regarding the whole topic of gentrification and who the audience is. Walnut Capital, the owner of Bakery Square wants to expand into space curently occupied by its neighbors of Trader Joes and other tenants in that plaza. That project is still to be decided. My thoughts? I loved my visit to West Elm, Anthropologie, and Free People. Eye candy was everywhere. It did make me wonder how such upscale/pricey merchandise stores are surviving while local malls are struggling. Did I buy anything? No. But i did enjoy looking and merchandise was more unique than the usual mall fare.

4.5 stars. Bakery Square is a shopping center that was built on the site of the former Nabisco Bakery. In recent years, Bakery Square has been attracting more businesses to fill the storefronts. Bakery Square has a few office buildings, which are occupied by Google, UPMC, Philips, Carnegie Mellon University, the University of Pittsburgh, the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, and others. The shopping center also has apartments and townhouses for residents. Bakery Square's restaurants include Alta Via Pizzeria, Galley, Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams, Jimmy John's, Panera, Starbucks, and Tako Torta. Current retail stores include Anthropologie, BHLDN, Free People, and West Elm. Other businesses include PNC Bank, LA Fitness, TIAA, and Springhill Suites. Some vacant storefronts remain to be filled and are still available for lease. I like this shopping center because it is new and nice. I deducted half of a star from my rating, because I like the restaurants more than the stores.

What a wonderful place!!! It was warm enough to eat outside. We all ordered from different places from a digitized menu on the table. Huge TV showing the NFL game and places for kids to play. This area is pet friendly. There is indoor and outdoor seating. The trees were changing color and it was just a perfect day. There is a hotel (where my parents stayed) and a Starbucks-always a good thing. I had chicken pot pie and tea. The bathrooms were clean and there is a parking building on site. We will go back....

This place has a host of small restaurants and a nice shopping mall in the area. It caught my eye first while driving past in with its bright interior. I decided to check it out on a weekend. They have a big screen outdoors for the NFL games - to have watch parties. There is a variety of food options. You can order the food online from your table by scanning the QR code. The indoor booths are super comfortable. Would definitely recommend checking out this place for chilling out.

This vast space is so nice! Enjoy drinks from the bar and food from a handful of food stations (see my pics to drool over!). There's also outdoor seating where football watch parties and other events take place. Parking in the garage next door is free for 3 hours when I went on a weeknight after 5pm. This is a great spot to meet friends for happy hour!
