Food is great, as is the service

Friendly staff, great pastries and bread, especially their Portuguese custard tarts - all made fresh. Their breakfast sandwiches are a must try!

Heyying

Always go there but sadly it will be my last time..only because the desserts that i bought had mold all at the bottom. I told them but i just wanted a refund because i don't want to take the risk of gettong another one.

Yet another great bakery in Toronto and a truly hidden gem from many Torontonians. From their fresh hot table, deli and catering services serving even breakfast, coffee, pastries and cakes you won't forget about this place, returning time and time again. While there, don't forget to try their amazing fresh bread products, especially the olive loaf that'll make for a great dining experience when you get it all back home to share with the family. That is, of course, if your purchases make it back there at all, especially their tasty cannoli, sfogliatelli, and even the custard tarts are made in a truly Portuguese style, sure to please everyone taste senses. Did I mention how friendly, helpful and efficient their staff are? Enjoy! Edit: Yet another great visit to this cafe and bakery. You have got to try anything and everything there and be amazed at this hidden gem, especially their Olive bread.

Naveed Khan

Very nice staff and professional. Loved the customer service and obviously Cake was so delicious. Thank you to both the lovely ladies working.

Ken Nascimento

Great breakfast sandwiches and pastry options , one thing they make that you will not find anywhere else is they’re amazing olive bread it’s truly exceptional ????Great location only thing I can recommend is to open up a little earlier for the morning rush.

Jackson Sales

Fantastic bakery R Bakery is a staple in the Marlee community. Fresh breads, amazing sandwiches, and a large hot table selection you can't go wrong stopping by for breakfast, brunch or lunch. Let me tell you, I had the strudel from R Bakery and I was back the next day to buy more! It is by far the best I've had in the city. If you're in the area you should check it out!

Iman

Delicious chocolate cake. Fair prices.

Adriano Silva

True bakery with fresh bread all day. Delicious snacks and sweets for all tastes. You can eat inside, few tables are available to have a coffe and bite something.

Marvin Ng

Great place for a quick meal. Service was friendly and fast. Ordered the proquetta combo and chicken parm sandwich, both was delicious. Coffee tasted unique because it was imported. Pastries look good but didn't get a chance to try. Will definitely come back. Not the most comfortable environment with everyone coming and going.

Steve Leishman

Fantastic bakery, service and value.

John Heuer

Nice little place, good service.

Varvara Uru

This place is pretty good to go and hang out with your parents. They have a wide variety of baked goods that are quite cheap, a croissant costs less than $1. They also have a wide variety of desserts that taste fine and sometimes less than fine. The prices are sometimes over priced. They are changing locations for a bigger sitting area which for sure needed to be upgraded they also make sandwiches. Which are sorta expensive!

Mahmoud Fakhriddin

Very nice place for a nice breakfast, good cofee and many great pastries. The hot dishes are OK but quite pricey. I still recommend the place.

Flo B.

My bf and I make it out here just for their natas (custard tarts) anytime we're in the city. Best natas in the city by far. Has the right crispness and the smoothest and perfect sweetness for the filling. I don't know much else about their other goodies but I will vouch for their custard tarts.

David Ross

The Lady was very good ,polite and diligent, (you need to get her some help)She is extremely hard working you can't afford to lose her.

Rui Estevao

Was referred to this bakery by a friend! All I can say is WOW! The quality and selection of bread is fantastic! You won't find better tasting bread in the area! The hot table is delicious and the staff are super friendly and always smiling. If you're in the area, this is your new must stop!

MD RAYHANUL ISLAM (Rayhan Shumo)

I think their food is good and tasty. I tried mini shrimp Patty and Chicken patty which was good but the croissant was old. Coffee is okay but not exceptional. Customer service was good and friendly.

Leah Mack

Bread is great when fresh, desserts are kinda, meh

J. R. H.

This is a wonderful bakery and cafe. The coffee is delicious, which is awesome since there isn't anything else in the area. This place was hopping when I came by, which is testament to the excellence of their baked goods. I had this maple/pecan danish-thingy that was so yummy!

Nick G

Chicken parmesan tasted days old, fish sandwich was decent. Custard tarts and alfajores was nothing flavourful or even sweet.

kike duarte

Good coffee

muhamet nenada

Perfect place to have coffee

Ali Farahat

Great, fresh and yummy

Lianne W

They have really good bread here. I would always buy sweets or bread when the bakery was down the street. I need to come back because I saw a food section this time! Attached are the correct hours. The staff are friendly and speak both English and Portuguese. Definitely coming back!

Revati K

I wanted to share the experience I had with R Bakery. I called on Feb 10th and spoke with a lady and despite being busy, she called me back and listened to what I wanted. I got a strawberry shortcake for my Anniversary and Valentine's day. It was simply perfect and their little pastries are amazing! I will definitely be going there to buy my cakes for any occasion. Thank you for making our day! :)

Ross Jelev

I love it !

D. J.

Service is generally great. Their cold cuts I find are less salty compared to other competitors in the area (I.e. Sobeys). They have some of the best, softest and freshest buns in the city. Their desserts are scrumptious, delicious and extremely fair priced. I suggest a cheesecake, Portuguese custard, or palm leaf if you want to fulfill your sweet tooth!

indrit zaganjori

Great place to come have a coffee sandwich and/or desert. Stuff is great to. I strongly recommend it.

Marissa Venn

The baked goods are amazing. However, they are incredibly stingy. My mother and I had lunch and bought some sweets to take home. We decided to get another tart to take home before we left, and we wanted to get a second small box to put the rest of my mom's sandwich in. The lady at the counter said she could only put the tart in a bag because I was buying just one. I explained that we needed a box for the food, but she said no. I would have to pay for the box. She charged me $1.75 for a take out box after we spent about $30 there!!! Seriously?? Very poor treatment of customers.

Tamara Bilchenko

Small but cizy place, decent prices. And it is always ckean here.

Adam M

Small space for sitting down but overall very reasonable in price and delicious pastries!

Richard Hickey

Delicios lemon meringue, custard tart, white bread and bourekas... Decent cup of coffee too !

Victor De Sousa

Excellent bakery i would recommend it very much.

Francocro

Great place ???????? Go all the time ???? Amazing!!!!!!!!

AllveSant

The employee who served me today was cynical, he served me very badly. I bought a lot of bread, paid with a debit card and she said that I hadn't paid my order. They let me wait a long time, then they served me a different bread that I had ordered. Conclusion: My coffee has cooled and my bread has been wasted! Lousy and arrogant service that I had with a woman. She is despicable. What a misfortune to have gone there today. I suggest that when you go to this place, ask for the receipt.

Lisa C

Wake up in the morning, dress up, go to R Bakery to grab fresh bread. Buy way more than you need, eat it all. Repeat the next day. Fresh bread daily, rich selection, sinfully delicious.

dakota roberts

Very disgusted in the customer service skills of the Spanish young women. She was very rude and snobby and made me seem like a burden. She didn’t do well to questions and sighed, rolled her eyes and overall was just not pleasant. She did not know the names of the pastries and gave lots of negative body language. Pastries here are great and I am a baker myself, I would NOT have someone like that working for me.

David Amoroso

Good bread. Great pastries... Lots of choices and an excellent strudel. Try the sfoglia they're awesome.

Riaz Aziz

The food, (fresh baked goods, and breakfast) are outstanding! Been coming here for over 15 years! My kids call it "Our" Bakery. ????

João Firmino

Very very good

Shallis Ryder

Absolutely wonderful! Fresh baked treats daily..and very well priced! Staff was very nice ???? I have found my new favourite bakery!!

addie ndllovuz

went there today i got red velvet and strawberry short cake. it was good but so dry . i don't know if its because it wasn't fresh or not made properly.the stuff are very nice too

Rob Tyrie

Some of the best sandwiches in the city..a and the bread and pastries are premium. And the pie. Mama mia. Super friendly staff. Love this place.

Adrian Nalundasan

I’ve been getting lunch here for a while. Everything tastes like the dish from food court when they’re closing. 3 stars for the quantity, staff and really nice and clean place.

Tony Leal

Awesome little bakery. Fresh pasrties, sandwiches, bread.

Kyle Conibear

My wife and I we're looking for a local spot where we could enjoy lunch. Since we're both vegetarian and they didn't have any vegetarian options on their lunch menu they directed us to their breakfast menu, we wanted to get eggs benedict but asked if we could get steamed veggies instead of sausage they declined the substitution and said we would have to pay an additional $3.99. So on principle we walked out, they should be more accommodating to people with dietary restrictions.

Ashley Valencia

Love this place! They just moved down the street on Marlee to a bigger location and it’s even better than before - as if that was even possible!

Amanda Inberg

Love this bakery!!!

Laszlo Nyary

A very good selection of fresh bread. Lots of pastries too, but the cakes are a bit expensive. The danish shrunk in size not worth it.

Manuel Escamilla

Great place for coffee sandwiches

Dominic Zepeda

(Translated) Very rich coffee, and that delicious and fresh chocolate bread! Very nice girls. (Original) El café muy rico, y ese pan con chocolate delicioso y fresco! Muy amables las chicas.

Natan Levi

Custard tarts are great and so are the sandwiches for lunch. A great selection of bread and other pastries.

avital cohen

Good

Dr. David Koivuranta

Wonderful pastries of all shapes and sizes. Especially love the custard tarts and the cream horns...but, oh those cakes!

Marcelle Al Eid

My neighborhood bakery. Great bread and sandwiches .. coffee ok and good latte. I am crazy about their olives and rosemary bread ... Just amazing. Also try the turkey Swiss sandwich.

K Black

Great breakfast and yummy baked goods

Emi Yuniati

Matt Kas

Friendly service and delicious food

Bari HAJI (Energy)

Very nice place... The ladies working there are great. Very cozy and awesome food too!

Dejan Ratkov

R Bakery cafe delivers amazing quality every time! They kept running their business despite all the challenges during pandemic and we loved the opportunity to sit on their patio and enjoy 2 espressos and 2 cakes (Japanese and Tiramisu) last day before the third lockdown. We are really looking forward to Toronto’s reopening and next opportunity to sit down here. In the meantime, you may come here every day and take out amazing pastries, very tasty bread (we love their buns and focaccia bread with olives), cooked food, sandwiches and phenomenal cakes. Related to cakes, you may order customized cakes for your guests and functions (after COVID) and you won’t be disappointed! Whenever I ordered cake every time they called me back to check when I’m coming to pick up and it was very easy to send pictures to create a special picture cake!

percy villena

Good costumer service.

j.d. brown

Super nice staff. I think they have outgrown the property, which is too bad, as they are 200 metres from home.

Leo monte

Fresh baked sweet bread open at 6am in the morning with tasty coffe and a place to sit in an out. At good prices. The place makes the whole look better and full of energy.

Uhren & Foto Express Filmproduktion

(Translated) The best espresso in all of Toronto !!!! Daily duty for every coffee lover The most dangerous thing about this coffee is all these fine delicacies. (Original) Der beste Espresso in ganz Toronto!!!! Tagespflicht für jeden Kaffee-Liebhaber Das gefährlichste an diesem Kaffee sind all diese feinen Schlemereien.

jessica7732

so good and too tempting since i live accross the street

Ian Goldman

Great latte. Good home made soup. Friendly service.

Ricardo Sabino

Clean place and not busy when I visited. The cakes look appetizing but unfortunately we didn't like the cupcakes that we bought and that's why the 2 star rating.

Nikita Thorpe

Delicious treats with affordable prices. Great place to stop in for coffee, sandwiches and deserters.

Nathalia Silva

Family place

Alan Lee Anto

One of the best sandwiches in the city. Everything’s fresh and are finger licking good!

Viktor Tsimakouridze

Good coffee

M. H.

Friendly Staff! Clean environment. Great fresh bread and the dessert is to die 4!

Sarah

Great selection of pastries and baked goods. Also a good place to just sit and have a coffee with a friend. Lovely staff!

Flavia Rohden

You must try their portuguese tart! It is incredible!!! The chocolate croissant and bakhalava are also delish. I’d say any of their pastries are yummy. I just wish I could bring my dog inside when I’m at the counter choosing what to take home.

Pavol Zibrita

Buying here often. Nice selection of cakes and cookies.

John Grissett

Excellent service and some of the best pastries i have had during my visit to Canada so far. ????

Monika Joslin

A nice little bakery with a good selection of cakes, tarts and cupcakes. Great prices and delicious baked goods. A few tables available for seating. Service was fast and friendly. Worth a visit if you're in the neighbourhood.

Agustin Ulises Castillo Lopez

Great coffee, great staff, great pastrys, fresh bread, great sandwiches and good variety of hams, salami and cheese.

Ralitza Dimova

Really great prices and excellent food. Their pastries are delicious and fresh, the hot foods are flavourful and their Americano is my favorite. Love this place! They also do a really tasty and very affordable breakfast!

ElizabethAshley

I got 12 pastries this evening. Which included New York cheesecake slice. Oreo cookie cheesecake slice. Cannoli. Eclair. And nata. The only thing I actually ate and enjoyed was the Nata. Everything else tasted like lemon. It's like they had a lemon cream base, and filled every pastry and cake with it. The Oreo (lemon) cheesecake was the worst.

Mustafa Akça

Great little Portuguese cafe and bakery. Amazing selection of sweets and bread, they are always fresh. Definitely on world-class Central European quality. Great prices.????

Jeremy Matos

Great Portuguese bakery in York. Prices are all extremely competitive. The Pasteis de nata is obviously the focus, but there is a wide selection of different and sometimes unusual pastry. Honestly a better bet to serve a cake or pastry at a party than most of the super fancy bakeries, and it won't cost 55$ for a cake.

Rory O'Connell

Lovely place. Great options for lunch and pastries.

Neder Roberto Pereira

Small but cozy place with a delicious variety of deserts and freshly baked goods

Anahita Aleli

I love the cafe, come here about 2 times a week. It's open 9:00 am to 10:00 pm. The staff are very friendly. I like the coffee and the parties. They bake breads here so they're very fresh

Joe G

The baked good were very fresh and the service was excellent.

Tom Shirley

Fantastic little bakery with coffee and sandwiches. One of the few gems in this neighbourhood.

Tina White

Don't ever apply for a job They are definitely stereotype You wont get a job there if you have tattoos because I sure didnt and i was Qualified Very disappointed In this place ... it Is my neighbourhood Bakery and I thought that they were diffrent

Kendrick F

Great local joint. Decent coffee. Portuguese tarts are a must

Yi-Hsuan Lin

Love the place. The coffee and cake are awesome. Staffs are very nice and friendly.

Xurge

Lovely people

Leora Erlich

Food is good. So is coffee. But service is so terrible I’ll never be back. Both staff behind the counter were rude and making fun of me for asking questions (such as, how many espresso shots do each size latte have). Not a welcoming place and food and drinks are not good enough to be treated that poorly.

Jerry Iacobucci

Wonderful espresso delicious pastries. Took home some of their fresh bread and it was fantastic.

jireh G

We have been RACIALLY-PROFILED HERE. We politely ordered to a nice cashier, and took a seat. Not even a minute later, a blonde server went to our table and started telling us that if we want to take a seat, we should at least buy a bottle of water. As if accusing us of loitering, and not having enough money to pay for our orders. She was really condescending about it too. There were many people lounging around waiting for their orders as well, but why were we the only ones she started targeting? Was it because we are not white? She didn't "ask" anybody else. It was absolutely humiliating as other customers were looking too. She apologised, still, in a condescending manner. The other times we were there, the other employees are nice but this blonde girl always acts so high and mighty. I want to see the management take action about this because it was a genuinely horrible experience.

Anthony Ramirez

I just love their bread and coffee

Fabiola Sicard

Love their bread, always fresh and delicious

Ralph pileggi

Good bakery

Brandy Daoust

This place is a hidden gem that I am grateful to have come across today....everything about this little bakery cafe is perfect....have amazing selection of fresh bread and my favorite olive bread...freaking delicious...then a great selection of hot food fresh and clean area...and you can get cold cuts and cheese and they will make you the best sammich ever!!!! Then for your sweet tooth there's a great selection of tarts and pies and cheesecake and everything else you want and great coffee to wrap it all up....the staff are friendly and engaging and patient throughout the entire process....the store is clean and organized and follows covid19 standards very efficiently and professionally....but the best thing was, for me, how affordable it is ...was expecting to pay more than what I did and for that I want to recommend that you check this place out .... thanks for a smooth experience....I'll definitely be there more often....stay safe everyone

Melinda Ph

Good selection of sweet treats. Fresh baked bread. The only issue is that you may get lemon custard instead of plain custard. It's happened once before but on the last few visits all the desserts we had were great.

Virginia Woodall

Fantastic neighbourhood cafe - I often walk down for a tea latte and a baked treat and have never been disappointed. The staff are always friendly, helpful, and it's a go-to local place of mine for delicious desserts. I also DREAM of their lasagna - seriously the best I've ever had.

K L Maracle

Wonderful little local bakery cafe. They make amazing chocolate croissants!! They have a large selection of pastries. They also do breakfast, and sandwiches. Very good cappuccino too.

Cvetan Cvetanov

Good

scoob

The food is unsanitary, poorly made and not worth the hassle or price. It's a small place with okay staff.

Dante Nocera

Everything is delicious

Nick Hendriks

Plenty of seating available. Prices are good, staff very friendly. Good selection of pastries. The store has a kind of timeless vibe. Feels like 1999 in there, but not in a bad way at all.

Cristina Dirlea

Fresh baked goods and excellent coffee. Also has seating, deli counter and fresh sandwiches. Friendly staff!

Kurt Monteiro

Great local bakery. Good cinnamon buns and custard tarts.

Rasif Iftessam

The best pastel de natas I have ever had. They offer a variety of amazing pastries, tarts, pies, sandwiches and a great selection of hot meal options. If you're in the area drop by.

Morgan Byrne

The BEST little bakery in the area! All the staff are always kind and helpful. Tip: They make amazing custom cakes. Gorgeous desserts and delicious soup.

Magdalena Rios

The food is amazing for a good prize. The staff offers a good service always. Try out the salads, grilled cheese sandwich (my fav with sesame seeds crusted bread) and all the sweet pastries!

Stefanie Franchi

good but really only for desserts. if you want food food, you'll have dessert :)

Maximiliano Sanvitale

Nice place, good food and absolutely not expensive!

Canadian Awareness

Wonderful service

Margarita Rey

a pleasant atmosphere and you can always delight yourself with pastries, breakfasts and lunches to take away; nice customer service ????

Anka G

Great baked goods. They should really ask their customers to not park in front of the store though, as every day people park right in the bike lane.

Ashok Patro

Great collection, staff and price!

Lucy Smirnova

Newly renovated, modern-design place with WiFi. Nice selection of pastries and bread, freshly baked. And espresso! Welcoming atmosphere.

Apeksha

If you are looking for something really FRESH… don’t forget to check out R bakery’s menu. I have been visiting this place since 4 years and never have been disappointed. I love their pastries, croissants, breads and everything that they have. Every time I visit my family and friends I definitely carry a box from R bakery.

peter nevans

Very nice place and good food. Friendly too.

Lynn Dolson

Everything is good - bakery goods especially. not very professional at answering the phone. Wanted to buy something - but left empty handed -- no one could provide a price.

Paul Ladeira

Nice ambiance and wide selections of breads and sweets

Johanna Orellana

We love everything about Bakery. It's so nice to have a Café with great quality products in our neighbourhood. The bread is made fresh everyday and they make awesome sandwiches. The porchetta is our favourite. It just depends on the person making it. Its usually great and generous portions, but this time we only got 2 small slices of peppers on our sandwiches that barely covered half of it. We're happy to pay the .75cents per topping, but we felt like our girl really skimped out on us today. It's the first time we've been disappointed, we're usually quite happy with everything, including the friendly service.

Robert Kroupa

Great products, Super helpful and friendly staff

Yury Rojas

One of the best bread in Toronto. The service is excellent!

Ricardo D

Very Dirty Area, kinda cheap desserts, they seem low quality. The croissants are FROZEN . not good

Marco Lopes

Very good bakery. Great bread( Calabrese buns are fantastic etc..), and pastries( delicious chocolate croissants etc..). Highly recommend

Heather

Courteous and professional staff were very helpful with placing a custom cake order. I purchased a strawberries and cream cake and it was perfect. Beautiful and delicious. The star of the party! I would definitely recommend R Bakery.

Nilesh Prasad

Decided to try to try R bakery when I was in need of a bun for a sandwich. The large white bun was delicious and soft. I decided to go back two more times. The second time I purchased their sourdough, small corn bread and alfajores. The sourdough was good, but on the mild side in terms of tanginess. The corn bread was interesting as it was a roll/bun. It went nicely with some spicy jam. The alfajores was not what I was expecting. It was sweet but I thought it would have a more pronounced dulce de leche taste. The cookie was nice and firm, yet crumbled nicely when you bit in to it. I read later that there are different ways to make this cookie and since I have never had it before, I can't really make a comparison to any other alfajores. However, I don't think I would get it again. The staff were friendly, answered my questions and I was in and out quickly. However, the reason for the 2 stars is because of safety. Each time I have gone in, I have noticed less adherence to the mask mandate. The first time, one of the staff members was cutting a sandwich while thier mask was down around their chin. The second time I went in a staff member was working the register with their mask down low. The third time was the most egregious. One staff member was wearing their mask around their chin, when we made eye contact, pulled their mask over their mouth and nose. Another staff member, in the back, was chewing on something with no mask at all. Another staff member pulled thier mask down to speak to a coworker, went to the bread display, grabbed and bagged a focaccia - all while their mask remained around their chin. Lastly, one of the staff members wore their mask, while cashing out customers, below their nose.

Nick Paseuth

Good place to go for pastry / coffee very fast & friendly service , excellent custard tars.

Alex Strauss

Fantastic Bakery! John and the staff always provide exceptional customer service, the focaccia is out of this world, and the pastries are delicious. Probably the best bakery cafe in the area, highly recommend.

Margaret Kornacka

Best bread ever!!!! Worth the drive. Amazing service and great food. I highly recommend it????????

adam C

Great place to sit and have nice espresso and a fresh pastry or lunch. Everything is always fresh.

Yulia Nartiss

Good, a bit pricey but nice food and pastries

Farhaan Moolla

Great food, typically great service expect today. Staff not very friendly today, was very disappointed. Not sure if they were just summer staff or temps. Regardless of this slight hiccup, the food here is amazing and that's why I go.

Clansie Rees

Excellent bakery

Eralda Hoxhaj

The best bakery in city. Everything is super tasty and delicious. Great staff. I will recommend to everyone to visit and to try from fresh coffee, breakfast, deserts, cakes, sandwiches hot table, and evry kind of breads. ????????????????????????????????

Boogie Boogs

Excellent and fresh bread and veggies! The staff are very friendly and skilled at what they do. They were enthusiastic and genuinely helpful in getting me something to eat as a vegan. It's a nice big room with plenty of room to unwind and study. Bonus: They have a groovy jazz station on the radio; played Bob James 'Nautilus', and made my day.

Edward Priceton

Food is the best! but not the service! 1 lady is a discriminating treatments with customers! very unpleasant! she serve the sandwiches cold!!!! she should not be in front! you will lose business.

William Mitchell

Delightful bakery.....good coffee, pastry, baked goods and hot food (no hot food on Sundays). Try their olive bread......you'll be back for more. Mornings they do breakfast......start your day there........5 STAR BTW.....need a birthday cake.....you need to see the outstanding creations....a cake for everyone from the youngest to grandma..you'll be a big hit when you bring one home!!!

June Lambden

Awesome bakery. Custard tarts are better than any I tried in Portugal!

steven pimentel

Great staff great food only bakery our family goes to.Keep up the great cooking.

Peppe Moncada

Great coffee, and service.

Diana Prouse

Is it possible to give 0 stars? I just went to this bakery with my two children after school, since their catholic school is across the road. There are a few tables, and there was only one chair at the only available table. Many tables, where ppl r drinking espressos like all day have extra chairs, I asked two people for an extra chair for my kids, and i was told NO, their purses and jackets are more important. Obviously, after purchasing $10 worth of carrot cake, and my kids sharing a chair, and me standing, they proceeded to knock it of the table and break all the plates. Everyone stared at me, and watched me try to clean it up, scrubbing the floor. No employees helped. I decided to leave it after i picked up everything off of the floor, and just get out asap.

Jared Miller

Great food and coffee but I feel fairly unwelcome by the staff, there are a few sweet people but a lot of staff members are fairly short and rude which is disappointing. One staff member in particular is incredibly condescending and gets noticeably angry when she cannot hear you (seriously, we're wearing masks). My other complaint is the line, there needs to be a second line for people ordering coffee and pastry to clear people out faster, as the store becomes full very fast and social distancing virtually impossible.

Erica Frisby

Friendly, polite staff. Food is very good. Love shopping local, as much as possible.

Luis Barros

Not impressed

Eliza M

This bakery sells the best Portuguese custard tarts. Absolutely delicious! Yellow creamy custard surrounded by a light flaky pastry. Yummy!????????

Erin W

Wella. New manager, that is so rude. I purchased 40.00 worth of macaroon, they were stale and old. Another time I got food poisoning from a sandwich... I have called the owner "Ed" four times, but will not have the courtesy to call back. The manager "whan" has for some unknown reason not talking to me, she will not serve me, I have never had a bad word with her or anyone else....very very strange... The manager needs to check on his employees.

Johnny Hsu

This bakery has many delicious cakes and desserts. Looks so good and also taste good. Have some, and I bet you will love their cakes as we do. This is the 1st time that we come to this place on the 2nd day of 2022. Happy we had a good choice.

Daniel Vizuete

(Translated) Very nice place very good desserts excellent bread in all its varieties. (Original) Lugar muy agradable muy buenos postres excelente pan en todas sus variedades.

Santiago Rey

I like this place a lot. Good customer services and coffee and pastries are delicious

Ninette Elmalem

The bakery is good but its unfortunate the owners do not care about the pandemic and spreading the virus. No body limits how many people are allowed inside at once nor do they care about social distancing. I was a long time customer of this baker but will never come back. I will also make sure to never speak highly of this place again. If they couldn't even care to make sure people are wearing masks inside and have enough space to social distance god only knows what ingredients are inside your food. Stay Away unless you want COVID.

Dougall Thompson

Really amazing pastries, we ate these with Wine Tours Toronto

Ksenia Teodorovic

R Bakery has excellent bread and buns! I very often buy chocolate and almond croissants for office breakfast. Everyone loves them! Affordable price and great quality. Will recommend to visit.

A&M Media

Amazing Sandwich!

Alda J

Very good place and food, recommended.

Adi Shkembi

Bread is tasty, but coffee is disaster. The service deserve 1 star too

Rohini Chandekar

We had ordered for a cat theme birthday cake for our daughter's birthday last year. The cake was super soft and fresh. We loved the flavor. It was vanilla with Strawberry icing. This year, we ordered a dog theme one. Nobody could have done …

Erin Lynch

Great service!

Мариан Ясаков

Delicious pastries, fast service, great prices.

Dan Lawrence

Best place to eat ever! Not expensive! Friendly service! What a great place in my neighborhood to go ????

Such a nice and cozy place to have your coffee and your favorite pastry!!!! I sat out in the patio with my friends and I quite enjoyed the experience!!

Hasan Misiri

All is good there, fresh deserts and pastries, service excellent, new place is very nice, spacious and bakery, hot table, coffee are delicious, 5 star deserved

S Curran

Their Olive Bread for $5 is great.

Sashauna Hooker

I purchased a cheese cake today as a mothers day gift for my mother and I can honestly say it was the worst cheese cake I ever tasted it was so disgusting my mother and I had to spit it out today should have been a great day but that nasty cake ruined it I will never buy anything from this store again.

f m

I really love the quality of the breads and deli selections at this bakery and go in to pick up these items, as well as Portuguese tarts about three time a week regularly. The reason I do not give it more stars is that some of the staff are downright rude. Rolling eyes because she could not hear me. One person in particular should def. not be working there. I do not appreciate her snobbish/curt/doesn't thank you attitude. Most of the staff are great. Also I really do not appreciate the employee talking about me under her breath!

Laetitia Tam

Cake and pastries were days old, hard and crusty. We were charged full price for cheesecake and chocolate cake that was hard enough that you couldn't have eaten them with a plastic fork. The canoli was also underfilled. Definitely not coming back.

andi hoxhaj

Excellent food, best sandwiches and dessert in town.

Selina Mohammed

Was not Impressed with their service

Tim Balcombe

Great smile and service from staff. Awesome ???? yummy food and coffee.

I love this bakery. They have lots of varieties with good quality ingredients. I am addicted to their focaccia. The service is very friendly and helpful. Highly recommend.

Good coffee, great people

Sue Hancock

Great place to sit and relax with a cup of coffee and treat or for lunch. Everything is always fresh.

Josephine Anderson

The chocolate croissant is amazing ????. Service is always great. The customers are at times very rude to the staff which is unfortunate and sad.

Nazly Sefer

Good service

Good place for a daily espresso and a cold cut sandwich made on a freshly baked bun. They have amazing Portuguese Custard tarts and a huge variety of inexpensive pastries for any occasion. Located close to the subway station and definetly serving as a second home for many people in a neighborhood.

Excellent coffee, ambience and pastry selection. They also serve lunch. Friendly staff.

I’m laughing to myself after a terrible customer service experience. I ordered the lemon meringue tart and when I took a bite it had a strange funky egg/ metallic taste. I kindly tried to exchange it- the lady insisted that I try another one. I tried the next one to be polite and when I tried to give it back and asked to exchange for a different type she instead just handed my money back rudely and would not exchange it. I have no idea what the backstory was but she didn’t seem to care or to be surprised by the bad tart.

Cute little bakery. Everything is so fresh and delicious. Prices were fair and service was great! Their little cakes and desserts were good but their breads were to die for! Will def visit again.

I go to this place 3 or 4 times a week for a coffee, muffin or a cheese sandwich. I have ignored the more often then not stale muffins and watery coffee with grounds floating in the bottom of my cup. I have ignored the rude uninviting signs posted everywhere in the store by the Hitler type manager. I have ignored the overwhelming negative vibe. Why? Because there is no other coffee shop on my route to Glencairn station. Today the manager crossed the line. They lost a customer. I always grab a bun and ask for a slice of Swiss cheese. The cost is under 3 bucks. The odd time the girl hands it to me toasted. 30 seconds on a press. I do not ask for this but enjoy it when she does. Today I go in, grab my bun and ask for my cheese sandwich. The manager puts her hands on her hips and in a rude accusatory tone asks me if I want it grilled. Before I can answer she says "Because that more money. That a grilled cheese sandwich" For almost triple the price. I say ' You are charging me extra to put the same product on a press for 30 seconds" I get a condescending triumphant YEP in response. This is the same woman who I smile at and politely chat with on a weekly basis. FOR OVER A YEAR. Today she acted like I stole from the bakery. Like I was in some way trying to get free food and sneakily rip the bakery off. ( Apparently the odd time I received UNASKED my bun and 1 slice of cheese heated for 30 seconds without paying triple the price is theft in her eyes) I was never her biggest fan but made the best of it when I went in. I acted like a decent NORMAL courteous person. I can honestly say that if this area had another local coffee shop no one would go there because of this horrendous manager. REPEAT Customers are what make a business. She needs to show respect. I have never felt more unwelcome in any business as this woman made me feel today. Unwelcome and embarrassed in front of the other clientele. I now firmly believe that this woman has some sort of mental health issue. She seems to get a kick out of being rude and controlling. Do the owners know how alienating to customers her attitude is.

Decent prices for cafe pastries. $3 for a carrot cake and conole. The medium hot chocolate for $3 was smaller than expected. Quiet and casual. Next time I will try the custard tarts

I found this cafe just by chance. At the beginning I wasn’t that much confident ordering coffee, but I gave it a try. I ordered cafe latte and with the very first sip in, I fell in love with it!! It is one of the best cafe in this area. A must try place! Good luck to the team????

This bakery if defined by Freshness !!! Their pecan, olive and sour doug breads are to die for. So yummy and delicious and tasted so home made and natural. I had my son's 1st Communion party recently and all the guests were amazed how good the bread was. I highly recommend this bakery.

Aleksandria M

Edson N. Vieira Jr. (NoThanks)

Great breads, cold cuts, coffee and desserts.

Alison

Woman who served me was rude, no smile, gave me cake in a box, it was to eat in the Bakery not outside. Cake no tasty at all, same for the hot chocolate. Will not come back there.

Chris K

Best coffee in town! Pastries are out of this world as well

Mani Thavone

Good place to go for pastry and fresh made sandwich , fast and friendly service . My friend always enjoy every time we visit there????

Paul Cruickshank

Great little bakery with modern decor... prepared foods and fresh baked goods are great.. but it lacks atmosphere... no owner behind the counter to say hello and student staff that lack any sense of urgency or social skills... give me a warm smile and friendly service and 3 stars becomes a 5!

Robert Vincze

Very clean place, lovely staff! The new location is bigger and better keep it up!

Dina Rollox

Freshly baked. Wrong. A truck delivers the bread goods already on the trays in the early morning and the staff just puts it in the oven. Coffee is HORRIBLE and old pasteies are still sold at full price. Yiur lucky if you get a smile f3om the staff because they always look tired.

Helen Steyr

TERRIBLE Terrible SERVICE....I spent $20 and they wanted $2 for a little hot water to heat up my tea..... NOT GOING THERE AGAIN !!

Love love love!!

Sid Markowski

Good and reasonably priced coffee, breads, pastries and more. Open early.

Andrew Quinney

Friendly staff, great food, and good prices.

Dee Ann

I tend to agree with the other posters. The manager is unprofessional and quite rude. I understand this is 1 of 2 locations and she is not an owner. Unfortunately she treats staff and patrons as if they work directly for her. Incredibly cheap with product, bags napkins and use of the restroom. And yes the many signs posted are a bit much. I avoid now and make the trip to Lawrence and Bathurst for my pastries.

Rosalie Galicia

Friendly customer service. nice coffee and sweet cakes.

Rudi Preca

Very nice place to go to, to chill out with family or friends. Great service, delicious desserts and food as well as hot drinks.

Burak Yildiz

Essential place for breakfast.

MC L

The manager there is so rude. Rude with the customers and with the other girls that work there. I'm going to stop going to this shop because of that. It has a negative vibe to the place.

Erik Blom

It's good bakery only thing the to go coffee cups always leak ..they need stronger paper cups.. and when they open in the morning they never have the muffins made....every morning I get a coffee to go and the cups start leaking...they need stronger paper cups..

Laura Duarte

It is a good place to stop and have a coffee with a friend. Food may sit for while, think so, because what I ate didn't agree with my stomach. Stuff nice, place nice, w/r clean and nice.
