The blue berry scone was delicious. Perhaps one of the best in Vancouver. The crispy exterioir texture was amazing, while the moist spongy interior was the perfect balance to the outer shell. Highly recommended if you are in the area.

Only place I buy bread. I added my numbers, and I spend a few hundred a month here for good reason. Only knock on this place is the bread loafs are sold out sometimes by 4! I get it tho, very popular place . We need another location in east Vancouver/ Burnaby! Huge supporter of this place love the ancient grain and the cheeky.

Quality ingredients 🌟 It’s been a while since coming to Granville Island, coming in brought back good memories of visiting years ago with family ☺️ this bakery utilizes organic flour and has loaves of bread, delicious pastries, savoury baked goods etc. I came for the croissant crawl Everything Seasoning bagel cream cheese croissant 🥐 and left with extra pastries 🤣 the butter croissant and double baked pistachio croissant 🥐 is so scrumptious 😋 the staffs are lovely, great energy 💓 There aren’t seats inside but right outside is where performers usually are~ a must visit on Granville Island!!

Very disappointed with the corporate side. Been trying to communicate with a staff for a role who called me and apparently left already and was given the intern’s name for communication, provided my contact number cos he’s in a meeting as of 1030am yday, i never got the called back. In this tough job market, i hope people understand the importance of having the decency of calling up whether that role has been filled or not. Honestly, the phrase “he’s in a meeting” is a well abused excuse for people who have no interest of engaging. A callback is the bare minimum every applicant deserves in this saturated job market.

Cute bakery in a busy area apt for picking up bread, baked goods or sandwiches.
The pistachio croissant was quite sweet but tasty. Ham and cheese croissant could use more ham.
Enjoyed the lavendar+hibiscus shortbread pack. Would go back for more. The price is on the higher side.

Vegetarian options: Vegetarian sandwiches available.

I'm so sorry I didn't click a picture of the cookie but trust me, it's one of the best in town I've ever had and especially the density of the cookie was commendable. Must get the cookie from here.

Everything I've tried here has been fresh and delicious. The location is perfect on Granville Island and way less hectic and crowded compared to food options inside the market. They staff are friendly and always happy to make a recommendation. They may be known for bread and pastries but they also have sandwiches!

Kid-friendliness: My kids love the croissants.

Very high quality puff pastry, so crispy that it crumbles, and the full aroma of butter when you take a bite. I would highly recommend the everything croissant, the cream chess is very harmoniously seasoned.

Bought bread Saturday, moldy on Monday. Tasted like old bread already when bought. Sad face. $10 loaf AND asked for a tip on top for the 10 seconds of interaction..

Want more money? Raise your prices. Want more wages for your staff ? Pay them more.

The staff were incredibly friendly. The manager, Alex, was willing to be interviewed on camera for the first time and in the end, he gave me a free Cheddar pillow. It was delicious. Everyone should come here for how friendly and welcoming everyone is.

** A good tourist trap **
Bad experience, breads are soft (no crust) and pastries are average (like Walmart pastries)

Without a doubt, the best croissants I have even eaten in my life. We tried the pistachio & almond croissants and they will be hard to beat. Last day of our trip, gutted we won't be able to eat these again any time soon. Really friendly staff too. The bread is also lovely.
