Paris Baguette is set to open its first Pittsburgh-area location tomorrow, September 4, in The Block Northway on McKnight Road, according to local media. Paris Baguette is a chain of bakeries ubiquitous throughout South Korea that has over 150 locations across the United States. The menu boasts a wide variety of cakes, baked goods, sandwiches, juices, and coffees, in addition its eponymous French bread. It is the second international Korean bakery chain to open in the Pittsburgh area, after Tous Les Jours in March.
The franchisee said earlier he aims to open five Pittsburgh-area locations, but only the North Hills and Shadyside locations are in progress. It had earlier set September 21st as the grand opening.
