Enjoyed our coffee and baked goods today. The mango (top item) was delicious! Thanks to Sean at the counter. He provided a tour and the cafe history. Lots of unusual items to purchase (coffee, chocolates, spices, cookbooks). Great spot for hostess gift. Thank you Sean! We will return!

Great pastries and coffee, friendly staff, cozy spot (and always impressively clean). Took me a while to start coming in, but glad I did! One day I’ll need to try some of the beautiful macarons and entremets.

Really love it here. There’s always new creations from the culinary school and I love seeing what’s new each week. Staff seems super excited about maintaining a good store, the culinary school’s attitude must be infectious.

Great Experience! The owner and employees are extremely friendly. Me and my friend showed up very close to their closing time, expecting to be met with attitudes like other places, however that was not the case at all. Their pastries are incredible—as well as their matcha! Definitely a place to visit. The prices are also not bad for the quality of items! The owner is beyond friendly, extremely nice man as well! When you visit be sure to speak to him!

Popped in to see what they had for baked goods. They had quite the selection, couldn't make up my mind so I just went with an almonds croissant. Very good, and everything else looked excellent. I'm sure I'll be back.

I had really high expectations considering it’s a Culinary Arts Cafe. The customer service was exceptional but the Matcha Latte didn’t hit the spot because there wasn’t enough Matcha. It was definitely high quality tho. The chocolate croissant had same story, there wasn’t enough chocolate in it. A bit stingy overall.

Had a really nice breakfast here, salt bagel with jalapeño cream cheese was delish (nice little kick to it), an iced chai latte, and the pumpkin dessert (very nice coffee flavour with a hint of pumpkin). Def recommend!

Pastry paradise! Unique beverages (I had the blood orange hibiscus iced tea with homemade simple syrup) and GORGEOUS desserts that actually taste just as incredible as they look. This bakery is nothing short of extraordinary. The cardamom bun is my favorite with just the right balance of sweetness, the chocolate croissant is flaky and rich, and the key lime pie on a stick is both playful and delicious. Honestly each pastry is crafted with artistry and flavor. A truly exceptional bakery. Not to be missed!

Amazing pastry. Best scones. Egg cups were perfect. Operated by the Cambridge School of Culinary Arts. A must visit.

Great food! Great selection of drinks, lemonade tea is great! Only wish the chai tea latte was more flavourful (tastes weak right now). Like most cafés, it’s lacking the chai spiciness and flavour. Overall, super friendly staff and a great place to visit! Highly recommend!
