This year, I decided to get a cake from Prantl’s for my husband. Not only did they have a great selection of cakes, but they had countless pastries to choose from, including paczkis. In addition to the selection of pastries, the team member I worked with was friendly and helpful. I’ll definitely visit again soon!

I almost didn't go in because it was a little dark and I didn't see anyone but I'm so glad I did. I had time to look and decide what I wanted. The chocolate cream donut and the raspberry cream were beautiful and delicious. The dough was not gummy and the cream was perfect And didn't leave a skim of fat in your mouth. The raspberry jelly was the the right consistency and none of it was too sweet😊

The staff at the Bellevue location is extremely cold and unfriendly. Their cake “artist” is in need of severe training. My MIL picked this cake up for me as I got ready for my daughter’s first birthday. Had I been the one to pick this up, I would have refused it. I had asked for a “Winter ONEderland” theme - with white snowflakes and a few pink bows. I really don’t know how this bakery thought it was acceptable to put this out. Really a shame - when this was Lincoln Bakery, it was great. Will not be returning!!!!

Prantles in Bellevue (Lincoln Bakery) Saturday morning, 915am, bought ~~a chocolate glazed donut and it was dry, hard, lacked taste. Icing was matte, hard, like it was made day before. $2.29 ~~chocolate thumbprint cookie. Very dry & icing lacked chocolate flavor & left a very waxy feeling in the mouth. $2.99 ~~burnt almond torte mini cake. Its a gift. Probably get 4 servings. $7.39 On top of the overpriced donut and cookie, an added $.44 "handling fee" was charged. Didn't notice it until I was in my car. Assume it was for the box.... Want to support local businesses, but I've tried their baked goods aboit 10 times over the past 3 years. This is my last time. Giant Eagle has better chocolate glazed donuts and Orams donuts are sold at many places now. Shop & Save has fresh Paddy Cake donuts.l, Dudst's in Wexford. Id rather spend the extra money and just go to Jean Marc's Chatellier's im Millvale. We have so many better options. And, the grumpiest ladies work there. Im not a fan of Prantles from Shadyside but had hopes they might improve the old Lincoln Bakery. No such luck. Still serving dry donuts just now with a handling fee.
