Jak’s Bakery is a small, independent bakery focusing on unique, handmade pastries using traditional Bulgarian techniques, recipes, and ingredients, but with modern twists and tastes. Founded in 2019, Jak’s Bakery is the U.S. iteration of the life’s work of Zhelyazko (Jak) Latinov, who has owned and managed a bakery in his native Bulgaria for more than 18 years. Since moving to Pittsburgh, Jak has been practicing traditional artisan techniques for pulling and throwing handmade phyllo dough, braiding Easter breads and crafting delicacies while developing a following through farmers'markets, special events and pop-ups

American bakeries range from wholesale operations that supply restaurants to neighborhood shops that sell bread, pastries, cookies and cakes over the counter, and many of them also pour coffee. Bagel shops boil and bake on site and sell out of favorite flavors by late morning; donut shops open before dawn and are often family-run; patisseries and cake studios take custom orders for weddings and birthdays and usually need one to two weeks' notice. Ice cream parlors, gelato shops and frozen yogurt bars are seasonal in the northern states and year-round in the South and on the West Coast. Prices are posted per item, by the dozen or by the pound, and most shops now take cards and mobile payment.

Hours are published for 5 days a week. On most of those days it is open 6 am–2 pm. Note that it does not open on Monday, Tuesday.
