Reviews of Valerio's Tropical Bakeshop (Bakery)

ExpLoren Dawn

Ray

Great place to buy Filipino bakeries

Mimi W

Bakery with all your Filipino staples like pandesal, taro (ube) bread, ensaymada, cheese bread along with bread, pastries and other colourful desserts you may not find elsewhere. Individual treats are well priced, but some of the packaged stuff gets up there in terms of cost. In my opinion, the highlight has to be their deep-fried, sugar soaked balls (carioca). - Mimi's Cake Tour

The cheese bread rolls and ube rolls r the best in there

Nice open concept that let's you flow from one tasty treat to another. Many different varieties of buns and sweets. Beautiful colors catch the eye from one area to the next. It smells so nice in here, the staff are nice and pleasant as well and will help you out and ensure that you are well taken care of. Have been here a couple times now and the area keeps growing. Lots to see now..

great filipino bakery in mississauga love the purple yam filling on some bread especially the bullilit breads????

Kenneth John Lim

Come for their freshly baked sweet bread

Fatimah Mie

I always crave for their cheese bulilit bread.. and the cheese pimiento... I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT.. AND I can say, it is for sure, a MUST try.... so soft.. so HEAVEN... Sooooo Cheeeeeeeesssyyy. ***TIP: YOU CAN BUY THE CHEESE PIMENTO SPREAD. IT IS AVAILABLE AT THE COUNTER...

Mike H

They have classic Pinoy treats such as bibinka, maruya, ensaymada and others. Try the Haba-haba for $5.99 though. It's delicious! I have it with my afternoon coffee and I'm set. I also highly suggest the Cheese Bulilits which are small bite-sized cheese pimiento sandwiches. Yum!

C H

I just bought ube hopia this morning. Tonight, I took a bite, its already has molds. Holy Moldy. I ask my mom not to eat it. We threw it away.

Iza Bethany

Amazing Filipino bakery in the area. They offer a wide variety of Filipino baked goods from different regions. They are fresh - so fresh that they package/bag them while you're paying. They do offer a small amount of savoury goods but mostly sweets and bread. I specially love their pimento flavored "Bulilit" and cheese balls (sooo good). Everyone need to try them.

The Grumpy Traveler

Oh the sweet smell of fresh baked bread... my weakness. Lots of baked goods available. Pricing wasn't very noticeable on most items but was very clean. I'll certainly be back.

Dehia Robles

Bakery offers all kinds of Filipino bread & sweet made with Ube. Snacks & bread items are pricy .

Marian S

Busy place.. they have a large variety of yummy baked goods! Steamed and Baked siopao, cheese bulilits, lecheflan, empanadas, pandesal...

Cuong Lieu

Interesting Filipino bakery, they had many baked goods from sweet to savoury. I really liked the desserts with ube. Staff were very friendly and helpful in providing suggestions. Definitely will return to try more things.

Kristine Besana

Best yellow mung beans-filled hopia ever! Great variety and selection. Prices tend to be on the slightly higher end.

Trina Tionko

Delicious Filipino bakery. I love their products. Top quality.

Klara S. Montano

Love the pandesal! So moist and fluffy. Spanish bread is a bit dry and lacks stuffing.

Enaila Villa

Plenty of options and very delicious !!

jay inocencio

Love those little Ube sandwich thingy

Pooja Prem Kumar

Just saw this place at heartland and decided to check it out. The place smells heavenly when you enter. They have all the traditional Filipino baked goods. We tried a cheese roll which was basically cream cheese and sugar on a roll and it was tasty. There were a lot of varieties of pandesal and bullits. We picked up the cheese pandesal and a cream dulce roll, both of which are delicious! They had little milk candy samples which i don't remember the name of and they were sooo good!! Many items were sold out by the time we got there, so I'm curious to see what else is there and try some new items next time.

Arlene Tungol

Hope you would let customers know that you are charging us for the boxes/containers

Aileen Babida

Amazing place to be!!! Especially if u miss home ????

James

Bought this pastry on the 12th Feb due to expire on 15th. Kids got stomach ache and vomiting find out its molded. Return the molded pastry on the bakeshop the following day, asking for a gas compensation ( since its a drive there), No they won't. They offered anything on their bakery instead, I declined since I learned from Asst Mgr that they have several complain with molds. The emotional stress when a parent see's their kid got sick only to find out its food molds.

Cesar Cardines

Pastries galore and their good.

Smells amazing when you walk in. Have never been disappointed with my purchases here.

Serena S

Lots of ube and cheese options. We got these little ube buns and they were delicious and moist - not too sweet! Gonna be little more adventurous next time and try their cheese buns :)

Mel Harhar

Fresh pandesal. No other words needed

Nat Du

Everything I have tasted is so good.

aous poules

The store was hard to navigate and understand what most of the items were besides the obvious names. Prices were fair & the quality of the baked goods was nice. The Ube, purple sweet potato is great.

DK Lo

Cute Filipino-run shop with a lot of history and heart! The variety is staggering and everything from pan de sal to siopao and even hopia is served here. All are made fresh on-site, and all are nice comfort food. Plenty of parking too - and the aunties that work there are very nice. Will definitely return.

Geeno Amoranto

This is my favorite bakeshop.All of the stuff they sell is awesome,i always find myself buying alot in here because their bread are amazing because its always fresh!Highly recommended.

Robert S

Pricey but they got the best purple yam bread !

Joseph Martin

Line for payment should be different to those who are ordering..

Jake M

Here are two suggestions: (1) make more of the pork adobo buns and less of the ham amd cheese buns. You run out of the pork adobo buns faster than the ham and cheese. Can't understand how the owners fail to see that there is more demand for the pork adobo buns. Make more of it! Basic retail sense, and basic economics of supply and demand. (2) And what's with the minimum amount before being able to pay with interac? Hello!?!? Ever hear of COVID19? Some people don't want to handle cash!!

lolzman213

Very nice and friendly people. Also quality products, especially that they are close to home foods

Ron Dungog

Great bakery for your Filipino cravings. A bit disorganized and messy though. Stuff is always fresh and taste amazing.

Nino Azurin

Your filipino go to spot in the west end! Everything is made fresh and always has long lineups! The cheesebread is heaven!

Colin Gordon

Great Filipino bakeshop for all classic Filipino baked goods.

Fernando Dela Paz

Awesome! 2 thumbs up!

Kaiser Co

Nice products and even nicer staff.

Greg Ybañez

I try to stop by this tropical bakeshop whenever I'm in the area. They have lots of mouth watering delectable pastries. But sometimes the lineup at the counter is very long, but worth the wait.

Roberto Martinez

Been here a few times. Awesome selection of savory and sweet bakes goods. Ube pan de sel is amazing. They do limit the amount of ppl allowed in but it is a quick wait

tanman81

our favorite is the pandesal

Todd Ostaszewicz

So many tasty delicious treats and baked goods. Filipino pan de sal is so good. They make a whole version which is great. if you are in the area and haven't tried Filipino baked goods stop in and give them a try. So good!

Alvic D

Sumptuous offering of baked goods and delicacies

FUBU ENYCE

Good selections but prices a little on the high side

Niell Davin C

I find this bakery very pricey though the food is nothing special.

Flipboy

Pretty clean place. Its small. I like the selection. The spanish bread we got today wasnt the best. But the fresh pandisal is where its at for me.

Simply Tintin

(Translated) Why do they hire or hire hypocritical staff. They will roll their eyes at you or other costumers when they get hurt. Especially for the 2 staffs who have a mole on their face, they just don't know their names. Rude. Yes the costumers are annoying sometimes especially now it's Christmas season but they shouldn't be unfriendly and they should smile they are the faces of your company if they are tired we understand but . I'm a regular costumer, I'm always there when I see those staffs, I know I have an experienced attitude if I'm not with other people. (Original) Bakit naghire or nag hihire sila ng mga ipokritang staff. They will roll eyes on you or to other costumers pag nakulitan sila. Especially dun sa 2 staffs na may nunal sa face nila just don't know their names eh. Mga bastos. Yes annoying ang mga costumers sometimes especially now it's christmas season but they shouldn't be unfriendly and they should smile they are the faces of your company if they are tired we understand pero wag dapat iirap at ibabagsak sa counter yung mga orders, mga bastos eh. Regular costumer ako lagi ako pag nakita ko na yung staffs na yun i know may maeexperience akong attitude kung di sa akin sa ibang tao.

Jesselyn Carvajal

Just bought a pandesal with adobo inside. The adobo filling is the size of a quarter. If they're charging @2.25 per pandesal is very wrong, customer beware!!!

Edgardo Miguel Yonzon

Fresh bread all day everyday. They sell out of almost everything in the evenings on weekends, so plan on coming earlier during the day and expect long lines. Ask for John Lloyd's ube, best I've ever had. ????

Rich Sace

Great pandesal and friendly service.

manuel rabe

Taste of pinoy...

Gerald Tan

Bakery that reminded me of the panaderias in the philippines. Old fashioned but quality is not bad. I bought the ube ensaymada and it was tasty. It's always best when you get the items baked the same day as the the 2 day old bread felt a little dry. The empanada was good too and i would buy that again.

Victor Victor

Good Filipino bakery

Didnt visit it , but i heard its good, so i give it 5 stars

Laiza Veluz

A haven of filipino pastry delites.

If you love carbs like I do, this place is heaven. My only thing is that I was able to try a Hawaiian haba-haba once and only once. It was unbelievably delicious. Please read this post and make it regularly. Thank you.

Delicious pinoy pandesal and many more.

Nabeel Nasir (ilmaddict)

Remarkable bakery with lots of fresh variety. Try the pandesal bread... the coconut ones are awesome!

G V

I am a huge fan of this bakeshop but DO NOT LIKE the way they put several electric fans to cool down newly baked items specially their HOT pandesal which is a huge favorite. I do not understand the rationale of selling freshly baked hot pandesal and other breads only to cool it down with electric fans with dusty blades getting sprayed on the food items. What is so hard in cooling them down at room temp? I don't think there is a need to use electric fans to speed up the process of cooling the pandesal or other freshly baked items. In this Corona virus era, I find it unnecessary and unsanitary to have freshly baked items being cooled down with the use of electric fans. Dust particles from the blades itself, micro organism in the air are being circulated in and around the food items, the store and passed on to customers themselves. Also, please don't let your cashiers handle any food items. Doesn't matter if they put on gloves before handling the food. They should keep their hands in processing payments not handling food items. Somehow, some way cross contamination can still occur. You employ enough people so let the cashiers just handle the cash register not the food. Please stop this practices. It is a food establishment and you should apply measures that safeguards the food you sell and the people who buys those.

John

Everything they sell is just so delicious. I kinda felt like I was back to the Philippines since they have my all time favorites, I even bought some and bring it to bc

Irene Yip

Philippine style

Erica Dao

Lots of dessert choices!

Katherine Reyes

Delicious Filipino bake goods really brought me back to mu childhood. ❤

Jayr flores

Everything tastes good. I gave four stars because of the price.. I think they could still lower the prices. Pandesal and ensaymadas are my favorite!

Herbert Velasco

Good food but expensive.

G P

D'Best pandesal and bakery

HOWLZ IFO

Nice, didn't expect such goodies, little too pricey but not bad indeed.

Mharia Jhoi

Lovin' their Hot Pandesal Bread

Alex Li

Sweet cheese ball is a must try!

Ropha May Sarria (R S)

Baked food is delicious very yummy, but staff are not nice! I asked for hot pandesal and the girl told me to get the bagged one on the shelf. People are driving from far away, sometimes for hours, to have a good Seafood city and Valerio's bakeshop experience and you don't want to service people in a patient, attentive way then you shouldn't work there. Talaga! Rude young people. Baked goods are as good as the people that handle them.

Ezra Delfin

The pandesal is great ! Very friendly staff !

Evangeline Rona

Clean and orderly. Staff are helpful and all the baked goods are yummy, the pride of the Philippines.

RJ

Love their breads! Good place!

Alveena Babar

American cheese rolls and pineapple pastries are good. Chicken bun is good too

Elma Lozano

Pandesal, empanada and many more filipino bake goodies

D V

Something for everyone. Pimento cheese buns, empanadas, Hawaiian bread.... The list goes on. Stop by here after Jollibee and the Philipino market.

Robert De Guzman

Lots of selection and yummy, but they just did a price increase. I think it's too much. From 3.75 to 4.49....

Malvin Sunga

not bad

????????

Reina

Baked fresh everyday. Love their cheese bulilits(?)

kelley buck

Amazing place. Quality tastes great. Service is also excellent

Mariecris Baricuatro

They have a lot of variety to choose from. Yummy but a bit pricy i think.

Ramon Hernandez

Cashier to slow ..more employee packing instead helping out at the check out

Alex Barros

I love the cheese pimiento.

M M

Rude staff. Would not recommend.

George Allen

Great bakery, the cassava cake is my favorite!

Tasty items

Patrick BS

I always get the Ube Haba Haba is the best!!! cream cheese haba haba second best of course!

I BELIEVE I CAN FRY !

Amazing fresh breads, great service. Must try UBE rolls, they are yummmmm.. Just be careful they are usually sold out and always busy.

Rosa de Ramos

Been there 3 times and 2 out of the 3 have not been a good experience. They had the cheese buns priced at $6.49 on the package. Once I got to the cash register they scanned it at $7.50. I didn't know the price changed but told them the price should be honoured since it is on the package, they didn't. Today I went there with my 3 year old and 1 year old and the women packaging baked goods in the front were talking loudly to each other and swearing then yelling at the guys at the back/kitchen. Also when I asked for help because I didn't know where a certain item was or what it looked like ( I was buying it for my mom) the lady was rude and just pointed to a general direction. The cashier was nice though and she packaged fresh ones for me and took care of the fly that was in their individual baked good shelf/display. As a business, their staff should be professional and not yell and swear in front of customers especially children.

Abbie Santos

Went inside the bakery to check what to buy. Saw this lady packing little pastries that looks so good. Went to her and ask what those are, she said "ube bulilits" without asking she gave me 1 to try. I am so taken aback because she was so nice. And the pastry was soo good i was smiling the whole time i was chewing it. I bought 5 packs of bulilits just because. $3.75 for a 12 piece pack less than $ .33cents/piece Don't forget to try cheese pimiento also, same price with cheese and roasted red peppers and some Filipino goodness added.

Jan Bea

I bought chicken siopao, cheesy pandesal, ube pastillas and spanish bread to give to my mom. Filipino friends rave about this bakery, IDK why. Siopao didn't have a lot of meat, pan de sal was too sweet, pastillas was ok but the worst is the spanish bread. My husband and I ate the same food the whole day except for the spanish bread which I ate in the middle of the night. The next day I had diarrhea the whole day. Catch my drift? They don't throw away what was in the counter, sitting there for a long time. Of course, they're after profit. I'm going to complain to the food authorities to give this bakery a surprise inspection because quality sucks. NEVER AGAIN! BTW, my friend bought turon and the saba is not ripe at all. It was "matigas" according to them. AVOID the HYPE!

Vicente Reyes

One of the best Filipino bakery shops in Mississauga. Definitely gotta try the cheese pandesal

Kyle Michaels

The name threw me off as I usually associate “tropical” with the Caribbean but this happens to be a Filipino bakery, which was a nice surprise. There are lots of choices but without knowing what is in each item, it’s hard to make a choice as a non-Filipino. There were many choices which looked delicious at the cashier counter, however they were not labeled so it was difficult to make an impulse buy. Will definitely return and try as many items as I can.

Mary O

Great bakery. Dinner rolls, pandesal are a must try! Esp when it is fresh and hot. Cheese rolls are so perfect! Definitely our fave. Other delicacies are a bit expensive. Honestlt theit are other places to buy that are cheaper. Staff, very friendly. Credit card payment accepted for $10 & over only..

Lyn B.

Nightmare when my granddaughter found and almost swallowed a 2 inches steelwool in a siopao...Called the stores that time so they will aware but unfortunately I dont know what to say...Just want everyone be aware their bread are tasty but how about the cleanliness how are we so sure now...

Juana Abalos

I love the bread from this Bakeshop

Margie Ventura

Employees are very friendly and of course their bread and other stuff are the best in town....

Michael Reales

Breads are fresh and the shops is clean. The rack is hardly filled because breads are easily sold. The Pandesal is what people came here for and the other yummy Pinoy treats like puto pao and other kakanin.

steve pearson

Friendly staff and fair price

brandon mondragon

I would've given this place a 4.5 if they use fresh buns for their sandwiches

Janet Datu

Love the varieties of pastries!

Laureano Jr

The store do have a camera and the owner can checked this .. the plastic broom that a store-staff use on the floor was also use on the shelf where the product is racked . Staff didnt BOTHER to REMOVe THE PRODUCTs (cross path by the same BROOM).datef March 22,2020 (Mavis & Boyer , Mississauga ON).

Mang Dodong

1 star for using the logo/font of Tropical Hut in the Philippines

RC JX

After seeing reviews of other customers who complained about molds, me and hubby were more careful on selecting goods and double check if we picked the good ones. The place is a pleasing bread haven. The cheese roll were our favorite! Cleanliness/orderliness may need improvement (some opened goodies are left exposed and neglected, which may cause a pest infestation). As someone who knew the native language, I gave a friendly "would it fit?" remark to the cashier as an ice breaker because she seemed stressed/tired while she struggles to fit our bought goodies in the bag, only to be ignored and gave me a "let's get over with this" look as I hand over my payment and not even a thank you for dropping some spare change in their tip box afterwards. Wish I had an encounter with the friendly elders/aunties that was mentioned in one of the review instead.

Avenie Alicna

Disappointed with their Spanish bread

Emma Ei

Excellent fresh ube bread. Lots of purple in the bakery.

Ismael Brosas

Most items are too sweet, my suggestion is to cut down on sugar otherwise good.

Luke W

We bought the bulilit ube and it is so delicious. Will be back for more.

Lia C

I went there today to get their cheese bulilit pimiento bread. I just grab two packs and went home. Upon inspecting at home, I found out that there was a fly inside one of the pack bread. It was disgusting.

Candice Bennett

The buns are so yummy and fresh. They are slightly sweet and delicious. They also have many ube flavoured breads and cake roll choices. Yummy :)

Sabrina Rivera

Great fresh amazing pastries

Mark Tompsett

If you miss Filipino bakery delicacies, Valerio's will help fill that longing. While not always the cheapest, it is the most delicious. It makes bringing a taste of the Philippines home possible.

Tec Savvy

Yummy and friendly staff. Lots of parking outside.

Francisca Cerna

Staff are friendly and products are delicious . A little bit pricy

Alicia Serrano

Some of their desserts are pricey but their bread items are a good value. My favourite is the cream cheese haba haba, but the ube haba haba is good too. They often bring out trays of freshly baked items from the back kitchen so definitely order those, especially if they've got hot pandesal!

maria bacalla

We bought four different things today and unfortunately for one of the items didn’t notice the mold on the pichi Pichi. Unfortunately, A family member ate a whole one despite the smell - hopefully she doesn’t get sick.

Sierra W

Absolutely love the softness of the bread and the great smell!!

Sandy Li

I bought Banana pancakes, cheese ball, cheese roll and chicken bread. cheese roll was the best!! I want to eat that everyday. I bought ube roll and puto yesterday. Best puto ever.

Emmanuel Bulaklak

Always fresh

Dana Lut

Too many people allowed inside and do not respect social distance, brush past and touching me. I selected 2 breads with filling and asked what was inside. The cashier advised pork and I asked for only 1, putting the other away. I was still charged for 2!

Dan Popa

When they first open the things they do there were ok. Now not so much anymore.

Ernie Arriesgado

Bread quality and options average...

magmac2527

One of the best bakery in town. They have the best bread and pastries that caters to the taste of Filipinos alike. One of my favorite is the cheese pimiento.

siobe dobidoo

Place is good but they can't keep up woth there production i went there around 4pm i ask few items they don't have it i feel a bit disappointed after i drove 78km plus congestion along the way. Not so very happy.

N Antonio

Good stuff BUT too pricey!!! The price of pimiento went up 50c more!!! Just wow!!! Are you increasing the price all the time?? Lol
