10 Best Bakeries in Courtenay

“It is hard to resist buying everything“

“Delicious croissants! They are definitely worth a visit. We had their smoked meat and mustard croissants, as well as their pain au chocolat. Very buttery and flavorful.“

“Soooo amazing. The Ferrero rocher cinnamon buns were so good I’m bring some home to my gluten eating family! Thank you thank you thank you!!“

“I’ve been on the hunt for the best cinnamon bun and I’ve found it - unfortunately, I live in the South Island so won’t be able to get them as often as I’d like…but maybe that is a blessing in disguise 😊. Fluffy dough, light topping of crumbled sugar and butter and gooey base. Not too sweet and not dry at all. Seriously THE best cinnamon bun I’ve had and I’ve tried them up and down the island.“

“I’ve bought their focaccia bread regularly since moving to the valley 9 years ago and their take & bake pizzas are always a 10/10 as well. But today (for the first time) we tried their cinnamon buns and despite me not being a lover of sweets I ended up convincing my kids to share half of theirs with me because they were TO DIE FOR!!! Not to mention, we were there on a year-end Scavenger hunt from our piano teacher and the customer service, kindness, and general friendly vibe was something you don’t often see. Thank so much to all of you amazing staff at Vassili’s! We will (of course) be back and felt fortunate to get to share your amazing gifts with our new-to-the-valley friends!“

“Thank you so much for creating such a beautiful cake for our daughter’s wedding. Simple but elegant, and SO delicious, it was perfect in every way! Michele & The Cakebread Team are amazing! Nancy and Chris“

“During every experience I’ve had with this location, the staff have gone above and beyond. Amazing customer service and delicious bread and pastries.“

“Went today for the first time since it changed ownership. I had always found it only mediocre before. Today was amazing. The server was amazing…polite, friendly, went above and beyond. Our perogies were delicious and it was the best cabbage roll I’ve ever had (apart from my own mother’s! lol and I’m very picky about cabbage rolls). It was my son’s 12th birthday and all he wanted was perogies and this did not disappoint! We will be back and spreading the word. Thank you so much ❤️“

“I had such a great experience at Tim Hortons today! The staff were very friendly and welcoming, and my order was served quickly. The coffee was freshly brewed and the donut was delicious — perfect for a quick break. The place felt cozy and clean, which made the visit even better. Definitely looking forward to coming back again soon!“

“Best food and drinks in all of the Comox Valley.“
