Mancini’s Bread Company

Whether you’re there for one of the many yummy varieties of bread or, like me, a devoted fan of their pepperoni rolls, Mancini’s is a must-​stop for anyone visiting the Strip District!
Side story: When I lived away from Pittsburgh, I used to fly home with Mancini’s pepperoni rolls. I would always get a knowing smile and nod from anyone who smelled the deliciousness and saw the red and white bag :)

Yes… on a busy day in the strip, its easy to miss. Stop in anytime because the line may be long (great sign of its popularity and history), but they’re efficient and quick. You can buy fresh, hot breads or if you’re hungry now, grab hot pepperoni rolls and eat right on the strip!

This place has the best damn bread I have ever had. I come here every single weekend to stock back up on their hot dog buns, kaiser rolls and cinnamon swirl bread. I eat the kasier rolls plain, right out of the bag, and I make french toast with the cinnamon swirl bread… absolutely amazing.
AND THEY ARE OPEN ON SUNDAYS UNTIL 4!

A small and great looking bread store on the Strip area in Pittsburgh. We tried a few different types from their samples and all were very delicious. If we lived in the area, we would probably pick up bread from here often! Parking was a little annoying trying to find a spot. Worth stopping by if you are walking around the area.

I got a pepperoni roll from here. I enjoyed the $ 1.70 one from Wal-​Mart more than the $ 5 roll from here — too much bread. But this is a bread company after all.

Have had their bread and love it… But this weekend, I grabbed a pepperoni roll as I was with some out of town friends I had taken to grab some bread… My god… This is the BEST pepperoni roll I’ve ever had … A true Pittsburgh gem

I had just finished a sandwich at Premanti Brothers but the smells coming from Manicini’s brought us inside. What did we order? Pepperoni roll of course! We stood at one of the tables and ate the roll with marinara sauce. It brought back memories of my grandparents pepperoni bread they used to make. It was so amazing. I can practically taste it in my mouth right now. Next time in Pittsburgh i’ll be back for more.

Told by friends to grab a pepperoni roll on the street. Was not disappointed! The role was great but next time we’d definitely get some marinara to dip it in.

This may be a small shop, but the flavor of delicious, fresh bread envelops you when you walk through the door. Samples of several varieties greet you as you wait to place your order at the counter. If you enjoy a warm fresh loaf of bread, Mancini’s is pure heaven.
If I had to select my version of foodie heaven, it would be delicious wine, aromatic cheese, and a fresh loaf of bread — soft inside with a crunchy crust. Yes, that would be my paradise. At Mancini’s I am halfway there :)
Though known for their classic Italian loaves, I tend to explore the options: Pumpernickel, Rye, or my personal favorite — Cinnamon Swirl. Oh dear Bread Gods, I worship this delicious loaf! Sweet and savory all at once — I will and HAVE devoured the entire loaf at once. Don’t judge me until you’ve tried it. Their Pepperoni Rolls are also exquisitely flavorful.
Whenever I make a trip to the Strip, Mancini’s is a must-​visit location. If (wo)man could live on bread alone, I would never leave.

Now, I was only in here for a couple minutes while a friend bought a peperoni roll. I did however grab a sample of the cheddar jalapeño bread with garlic butter… WOW. It was soooo good. Just a hint of spicy kick with the mild cheddar is an excellent combination. Garlic butter = fantastic. There’s really nothing else I can say here except go get some!

Went here on vacation last year, got the pepperoni roll right out front and saved it before the Pirates game (ended up being the one that Homer Bailey threw a no-​hitter, but hey, got to see a no-​hitter at least).
The roll itself was the best pepperoni roll I’ve had in my life. It’s like they rolled up a small pizza with the amount of cheese and pepperoni that was packed in there. It was so good that I didn’t even need to get dinner that night — which is great considering concession stand food at any ballpark requires a 2^nd mortgage, and the pepperoni roll is completely worth the small price tag.

We stopped here along our tour and were greeted with fresh pepperoni rolls. The bakery is small but has a ton of different breads to choose from and everything is made fresh in front of you.

When my family which is from Pittsburgh posted on Facebook that you could buy Mancini’s bread online we were so excited. We love Mancini’s bread (I even met Mr. Mancini years ago) so we went online and bought 4 loaves. Cost of the bread was reasonable at $ 10.00 for 4 loaves but freight was a whooping $ 18. I figured that was for speedy overnight freight since, hello, it’s bread. They shipped on Tuesday (the only day they ship) and our STALE bread arrived Saturday October 10^th. Unless you live in the Pittsburgh area stay away from this bread shipping scam. You have been warned.

I got to try some free bread from Mancini’s once. A Mancini was working at my workplace for a little while and he brought in some bread for everybody to try, it was AWESOME.

Their garlic butter is ABSOLUTELY and UNDOUBTEDLY AMAZING.
They let you sample 5 – 8 kinds of bread; serve yourself.
Pretty good pricing.

2 words… PEPPERONI ROLL!
Yummy bread, consistency of Pepperoni to bread ratio… A+++++++++++++++++

Fresh bread and the BEST. PEPPERONI ROLLS. EVER.
This is a special treat for me and hubby, and we always take our out-​of-​town guests to the Strip for one of these delicious treats.

We have only been to the Strip District location and have been delighted with the bread we have purchased. Fresh and affordable, the bread can’t be beat– especially, in combination with cheese from Penn Mac!

I have only been to the strip district location and i can’t get enough of this place (my waist not included)… Its a few blocks from my yoga studio and even after 90 painful minutes of sweating out carbs i always find myself back here. I recently discovered their basil pesto bread and it has become a weekly staple. It is simply the bomb. com. Fresh, soft and spicy. Just dip it in some olive oil and vinaigrette and you will be on cloud 9. I have always gotten my pizza dough and bread crumbs from here and they are both well made and cheap I refuse to shop anywhere else. Their breads stay fresh for a really long time too. My only wish is that they stayed open a little bit longer on weekdays (they close at 4 pm).

This place shocked T-​Bone.
He hate pepperoni, but…
Their rolls are just wow.
