Mediterra Bakehouse is a family-owned & operated Pittsburgh-based artisan bakery. We bake artisan breads using traditional French methods. We’re committed to quality, and use the best ingredients possible. For many breads, the baking process begins in Arizona, where we grow our own organic heritage red fife grain on 35 acres of land. Once the grain is harvested, the entire milling process is done in-house using stone-ground Austrian milling equipment. Milling our grain the old fashioned way makes a huge difference in the flavor of the bread & nutrient retention. When we aren’t using our own grains, we depend on the highest quality organic, non-GMO, unbleached & unbromated flours. At Mediterra, quality comes first – always.

Reviews
Attached to my review you can find the menu of the catered foods that we had tried. Of the many delicious foods that I’ve tried my favorite dish would definitely have to be the sprouted grain salad with the with roasted sweet potatoes and lentils. Because this place is fancy the salad also includes farro, quinoa, herbs, radish, fennel, musclum greens and toum. The dressing was especially delicious and complemented the nutty, earthy flavor of the grains as well as the fresh herbs throughout the salad. It was very well balanced. I also really enjoyed the heirloom squash soup with the fennel, maple and herbs. I actually never would have thought that fennel would taste so good with the squash and beans in the soup and the soup also went really well with the salad to the point where I was even mixing the two together. I might even call it the best soup and salad combo I’ve ever had! My partner and I also really enjoyed the succulent salmon with dill and butter and the very rosemary flavored chicken which was just as tender and delicious as the salmon. I could also tell that the coffee they served was of higher quality.
The only food selections I personally didn’t prefer would be the strong white and red wines, the strong and hard cheeses, and the roasted marble potatoes (although I did like the other roasted vegetables). Another downside was that there wasn’t enough space in the restaurant for everyone who was there. As a result, we were stepping over one another’s toes and blocking one another from being able to use the bathroom or be seated very easily. Also, as shown from the other menu that I posted the prices are not very reasonable.
I purchased the red fife deli and batard loaves, and both are out of this world. I generally am dipping them in intense, single origin extra virgin Greek olive oil, and the pairing works perfectly. Their advice on freezing bread has proven to be on the money, as these have been great thawed and heated in the oven.
My only challenge now will be figuring out how I can continue getting ahold of these breads, as I work from 8 to 5 weekdays with no real lunch break. Whole Foods in Upper St. Clair has a “heritage” loaf by Mediterra that is similar, though has more ingredients and is not identical (I’m sure it will be great).
