What an amazing little gem. If you are reading this you MUST stop here. I’ve never in my life been to a place that does cinnamon buns like this. And we have travelled all over. We got the milk and cookies and the peanut butter cinnamon buns and they were to die for. I was shocked at the reasonable price for what you get. They are massive portions and they give so much toppings. I cannot wait to come back. There is so many items on the menu my husband and I are so excited to try. Also the place was slammed busy. It def lives up to the hype. Highly recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Stopped in from Nanaimo after a phone call to confirm if they had cakes available for short notice purchase. Kind, quick, smiling service, they added fresh flowers to the cake and wrote beautifully on it. Can't comment on taste yet as the cake is for tomorrow. Will update! The cake is beautiful though. Thank you. ????

Absolutely incredible!!! I had the sausage roll and the chocolate covered cream puff. Trust me when I’m telling ya, you will not be clean after eating the cream puff but you will like it and be happy. I’m so excited to have found a little bakery with quality food! Good job guys!!!Kid-friendliness: My littles ran around waiting for their yummies and everybody was smiling and laughing with them.

We love this bakery, well worth the drive. Must get there early to ensure that you get items that you want as it’s super busy. We got French bread, cinnamon buns, cupcakes, cookies, sourdough, banana cream tart. My daughter usually eats only the icing off of cupcakes but devoured the entire cupcake which tells me it was delicious! Highly highly recommendKid-friendliness: Has a decent amount of seating, and has high chairsWheelchair accessibility: Fully wheelchair accessible
Amazing bakery. It gets quite busy around noon and on Saturdays so if you are in a rush I recommend you go earlier in the morning as it opens quite early! I really enjoy their cheddar and chive scones!

Stopped for lunch after visiting Cathedral Grove old growth forest.There was a lineup which I’m told is quite common. The baking selection was extraordinary and we had both lunch and take away cinnamon buns, which we had the next morning for breakfast and they were excellent. The lunch was good but the environment, not so much. It was frigid in the building such that we had to eat with our jackets on. There’s also only a very few tables in there space in a Covid like set up. Perhaps they actually don’t want people to dine in. So I would plan to do take Away.

This is one of the best bakeries on the island by far. The food is fresh and the staff is friendly. They always make you feel like family and go out of their way to greet customers they know by name.They are well know for their HUGE cinnamon buns and they do not disappoint. Most days though, you need to get there early to get the cinnamon buns as they do sell out. Definitely recommend this place.

I’m not typically one to write reviews but this deserves a review. Old town Bakery’s cinnamon buns are named the islands best for a reason. They are genuinely one of the best things I have ever eaten. Happy happy holidays !!
