8 Best Bakeries in Courtenay

“Always my fav spot to stop travelling down island! Absolutely delicious, and gorgeous. Also a great excuse to take the old island highway.“

“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.“

“Best cinnamon buns in town HANDS DOWN ? but unfortunately, today's ( June 4th) the cinnamon is overwhelmingly undercooked!! So I'm don't feel safe eating it.

Beyond that, I've only had their chai, it's not my favorite tbh but I'm a bit of a chai snob - - id love to take my daughter's here for a little morning as the place is super peaceful.“

“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“

“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!“

“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 ❤️“

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