“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolute Perfection and a True Taste of France! without a doubt, the best patisserie in West Vancouver. Stepping inside feels like a genuine trip to Paris. Every item, from the exquisite macarons to their stunning signature cakes, is a work of art. The presentation of everything is meticulous, and the ingredients are clearly top-tier.
Beyond the incredible baking, the service is always warm and welcoming, and the atmosphere is cozy and elegant. Whether you're grabbing a morning croissant or picking up a centerpiece dessert, this place never disappoints. A must-visit destination for anyone who appreciates fine pastry!“

“Loved the Brie Apple Panini and Chocolate Croissant.
The Brie Apple Panini has a balanced taste and suits my empty stomach very much. Perfect way to start the morning with.
The chocolate croissant is airy (in a good way). I can have it every day~ it's one of the best croissants I have tried.
The bakery is located approximately 5 mins away from the terminal. Do stop by and grab something to eay during the ferry ride.“

“10/10 outstanding. Delicious home made breakfast. Friendly service , even from the cook who gave me my food. Enjoyable atmosphere , I loved all the signs , had a good laugh while waiting for my food. Small family run business , a homey little place , this is what I love. Hope it’s here for years to come.

“We had an imaging appointment next door and found this place. Such a fine establishment all around. Excellent service and great food and coffee.

Lovely ambiance and everyone was so nice and kind. They had some great cookbooks for sale for $5 and I picked one up.

We got Caprese and Grilled Cheese sandwiches and Latte.

This is a must visit place if you are around the neighborhood.“

“To Live For is worth driving from another country to visit! I live in the US, but make the drive frequently to enjoy their incredible baked goods, both sweet and savory. It is such a welcoming environment with incredible staff too. Highly recommend if you are anywhere near East Vancouver!“

“So delicious. I had my first glazed yeast donut since my celiac diagnosis. YUM 🤤 I have a box of other baked goods to work my way through and they look equally delicious.“

“This place is so great. The staff are all super friendly, the coffee and baked goods are tasty (priced on the higher side, but then it's a small shop), and best of all the staff seems to be quite kind to Downtown Eastside folks—which is something that matters a lot to me (especially for businesses that choose to open here.)“

“My first visit today following recommendations from 2 friends and it was a great experience. Friendly staff and totally delicious bread for my prosciutto and brie sandwich and truly excellent coffee in my cappuccino. Will certainly be visiting again. when i am in he area and all best wishes to the owners and staff for this gem to thrive.“

“Picked up 4 cookies before taking the Rocky Mountaineer train to Banff. They were each out of this world and I wish I could snap my fingers and be right there, any time I wanted. Never had anything like this, anywhere else.“

“They make the best cakes ever ! Also excellent customer service.“

“Absolutely fantastic spanakopita, the pastry is buttery and flakey, the inside creamy and tart at the same time. Service is also friendly. The place has a nice but unpretentious vibe.

Will definitely be coming here often!“

“I recently purchased a cake and it was the best cake ever! (Lemon Meringue) Guests were so happy about the Dessert. I will definitely be coming back.“

“Very nice staff as well. The borek was amazing !!!“

“Please support my dear childhood friend and her boutique bakery. Located in the building where the Lazy Gourmet used to be..you won’t believe how decadent these pastries are!“

“Amazing place! Highly recommend.“

“If you’ve never tried walnut cake, please go for their “pastry red bean” first!!!! 🥰🥰🥰 It was soooo good!!! I bought pastry, butter, whole red bean, chocolate, and matcha today, and I would said that the pastry is the best!!! And my second favorite is “whole red bean”. You can really taste the red bean, and the sweetness is lower. The third one I will recommend “chocolate”~~~~

As a matcha lover, I would said that I’m a little disappointed about their matcha cake… There was not much matcha taste..🥲

Also a suggestion for owner, for the Ang-butter flavor, if you can change the regular butter to “salted butter”, then I think it would tastes better! The salted butter might balance the sweetness of red bean paste😄😄“

“Worst owner to deal with. She will ignore you and instead of assisting you, calls you indecisive even though you are giving her your business... Honestly, she's the worst at any customer service and doesn't take accountability. Also, the cakes are mediocre at best.“

“Their pastries are amazing! The Vanilla round Croissant is my fave. Now onto the donuts, don’t let the homemade aesthetic deter you from grabbing one of these on the way by, you will not regret!“

“They make the best MelonPan!“

“Best Pastries of my life!! Homemade baked goods and family owned! Always fresh always yummy 😋“

“Sun Fresh Bakery in Vancouver's Chinatown is a popular spot for affordable and tasty Chinese pastries, dim sum, and congee. Customers praise the fresh ingredients, friendly service, and the nostalgic taste of their food, which is often compared to what their parents or grandparents would make.

It's worth noting that Sun Fresh Bakery is primarily a cash-only establishment.“

“Owner is amazing and staff is excellent. Love the baked goods and bread especially the Croissants! This is a delightful bakery that is open from Thursday to Sundays and offers online and delivery services plus Merci is at the farmers markets. Best of all some of the bakery items are in the frozen section of Stongs Market and Gourmet Warehouse.“

“Ordered a gluten-free Ferrero Rocher cake from Mayito Exquisite for Thanksgiving which was a true delight! It was incredibly moist with a rich hazelnut ganache that elevates every bite. Each slice melts in your mouth, perfectly complemented by crunchy Hazelnut and caramel accents. A must-try for anyone, gluten-free or not!“

“I recently visited Westview bakery and was absolutely delighted! The atmosphere is warm and inviting, with the smell of fresh bread and pastries filling the air. Everything I tried was delicious — the croissants were buttery and flaky. The staff were so friendly and welcoming, taking the time to explain their specialties and making sure I felt taken care of. It’s clear they put a lot of love into their baking. I’ll definitely be coming back and highly recommend this bakery to anyone looking for top-quality treats and a cozy experience.“

“I've been going to Bâtard for several years -- my favourite bakery in town and worth the 15 minute drive. Great bread & scones, pastry to die for, and wonderful atmosphere for a lunch. I'm more than a little suspicious by several coordinated reviews which trash the place, particularly as one of the reviews is by an owner of the new bakery which just moved in across the street ... hmmmm ...“

“I love the ciabatta and baguettes at Benchmark! However I may stop going there because I get embarrassed every time it's time to pay. I'm passed the pos machine and I have to chose what tip I'm supposed to pay. A couple of times I tipped but didn't feel right about it on my way out the door. Now I don't tip but feel cheap while the very pleasant and helpful staff is waiting for the pos machine back. I'm sorry but I have just been passed a few buns and if I start tipping at the bakery for such a short service then should I start tipping everywhere else that store staff just passes me something.“

“Best red velvet cake I have EVER had. A must try! Will definitely order again Had a small incident and they went above and beyond to rectify! Excellent customer service“

“Delicious & cozy vegan bakery in Vancouver ��� much worth it!“

“As someone who is both dairy, eggs and gluten free I know how challenging it is to find baked goods that are actually delicious. I could not believe how good their bagels were and the lemon loaf. Like how are they vegan and gluten free??? Unreal.“

“Mount Royal Bagel Factory is the best! Fresh, delicious bagels every time. But what really makes this place special are Golnaz and Mitra — they are truly the kindest and loveliest people. Always welcoming with a smile and amazing service. They make every visit such a positive experience. Highly recommend this place!“

“I have been eating at this place since the Patties were about 65 cents...not quite the prices when they opened in the late 70's but probably pretty close. As per my usual spew, yes the prices have gone up but they still taste damn good. Authentic? I have no clue. I don't think they have ever said much more than hello to me since the late 80's early 90's but I do not care. I show up for the grub.
The wacky, oversized, almost Rodney Graham meets Ron Terada conceptual art-like business card that could double up as a greeting card is a phenomenal part of the experience as is the business card disaster pin board. Realtors and electricians fighting for free ad space, pummeling and poking each other in a thumbtack fight. The faded lithograph printed Jamaica poster is dated but a welcome sight. I just wish they had the 1972 Sintra Bronte Jamaica t-shirt poster....the Usain Bolt printout just isn't doing it. On another side note, the Chalk art chalkboard may be one of the first in the city before Chalk Art started to become a thing. Not a good thing, but still a thing.
Back to the Morse code/reverse Braille coded patties. Delish. Spinach feta and Mild Beef are a guarantee. I could eat a white greasy bag of them and I do. In fact I pick up extra thick plastic bags of their Arawak Industries frozen Jamaican pucks to go!
I have never used the pop machine that sits in their establishment and I have actually never seen anyone use it in all my years there but maybe one day I will. Other than a medium freezer that sits behind the cash register, most of the action is behind the wall. I hope to hear some Dancehall or dub back there, but so far no luck.“

“A true mom & pop operation! I've loved everything I've tried -- the many kinds of baklava, their Dubai tres leches cake, their cheesecake, tarts... My goodness, what a treat! As a lover of pistachios & pastries, I'm over the moon to have this lovely bakery in the neighborhood.“

“I just had my first taste of the baking from this fine establishment. Wow! It is hard to find rich tasting melt-in-your-mouth gluten free cookies - and these are fabulous. Any cookie lover, gluten intolerant or not, would love them. I bought an assortment and am working m way through them. Yes, the coconut ones are amazing - and the almond - and the chickpea flour, and on and on.
I might also add that these tasty things are also very reasonably priced.
The folks here are also very helpful, friendly, and clearly great at what they do. Thank you!“

“Best bread in Vancouver. I wrote a letter to the New York Times food section about this bread!!! I know when it’s delivered to Deep Cove and if I don’t get there soon after, it’s gone! I get two baguettes and always have one in my freezer 🥖“

“found this little gem looking for another business in Lynn Valley. what wonderful treats! seriously if you are in the area you need to go to this place, so delicious“

“If I had an option, I would give 10 stars to Helen and hubby team.
Such a sumptuous strawberry mousse cake. The texture of the sponge cake was meltingly soft. Fresh sweet tangy strawberries were a cherry on the pie. Not to forget the surprise stuffing of pineapple that gave an exotic touch to the cake.
Helen’s suggestion, especially knowing how yummy the cake is gonna be, was so close to perfect. If I had ordered even an inch smaller, we all would be left craving for more.
Last but not the least, Mr. Yan is incredible not just with preparing such amazing cakes but he is also writes beautifully on the cakes. His handwriting on the cakes is not a skill in English or chinese languages only, but also he did an amazing job writing those in an Indian language…!! Helen was very patiently, rather enthusiastically involved in sending me a sample picture of the writing to make sure I like it before they finalize it.
From now on whether big or small, our cakes are only coming from Yan Bakery. 💕🎂“

“Our neighborhood fav! The bread is something special (so good) coffee is also great. Cozy, friendly vibes. My only personal gripe is that they've stopped making the pumpkin muffins...why?! Please bring them back! (I'll visit way more often). But you still deserve 5 stars for everything else ;)“

“Love the garlic sausage , apple & poppyseed cake and doughnuts ❤️“

“They take so much care with everything they do and that care shows in how delicious everything is.“

“The bakery has been around since my adolescence, probably longer. One of my favourite stops when in the hood 💙 Still cash only, but so worth it. I was finally able to bring my children; I knew that once they set foot in the bakery, the fragrant scent of baked goods, they would enjoy it as much as I did. They sure did, they tried the donuts and cookies. One can never go wrong with their coconut cream buns or pineapple buns. I also like to grab a bag of cinnamon rolls or raisin butter tarts for the fam.“

“We met Behiste and Ali there, who are the owners of the coffee shop, and they were amazing people! The black tea served in slim-waisted glasses, their baklava, and pistachio cookies were delicious! Next time, definitely try another one of their pastries!“

“Best Italian bakery! Marco the owner goes above and beyond for his customers, and his pastries are simply the most authentic Italian pastries that you will ever find! He also customized an entire lemon cake for my lemon themed birthday in July and it left myself and the guests speechless. Customers dining at the restaurant where I celebrated my birthday were also asking where the cake was from! Highly recommend Fratelli's!“

“Delicious authentic cuisine. My whole family loved it 👍“

“best cake i ever tried (pistachio)“
