“Found Friend at a farmers market and fell in love! This is now our favourite spot to get our sourdough. The chocolate chip brown butter cookies are insanely delicious and the number one reason we come back time and time again! Every pizza we’ve tried we have enjoyed, and the staff are all the most friendly and lovely people. 10/10 “
“Love love, love this lunch/bakery. Cloe is baker extraordinaire! I don’t know how she makes the BEST EVER flakey, buttery, delectable croissants- all flavours are amazing .. ham and cheese are our fave. The danishes, scones, cruellers, apple fritters..AND sourdough bread ( all flavours) are nothing short of amazing !!Andy makes the best focaccia sandwiches ever… Highly recommend!!“
“I wish I’ve visited this place sooner. Amazing croissants! I got their cookie dough and one of the specials of the day. Also got their sourdough bread which tasted light still and one of the bests!I wish there’s dedicated space for seating as I’d love to sit in in this bakeshop. I didn’t see whether they sold coffee.Will definitely be back :)“
“This is our third time here, and all times have always been excellent, from the services of the staff to the food and pastries choices. I wish they could make another location closer to our area, though, but nonetheless, all experience were all satisfying well. The aura is almost always inviting ( da...it's a bakery shop too ?). I just love that bread and pastries smell. It's very congenial and cheerful ?. Definitely will be coming back again and again.“
“They made the dessert table for our wedding and it was an amazing experience from start to finish. The consultation process was great, they sent over a tasting box delivered to our door and then they tailor made the table exactly how we wanted to fit our theme. On top of that it was all delicious! Everyone raved about how beautiful and tasty our desserts were. We also opted to use their Bake the World a Better Place cookies for our wedding favours as the local charity was one that really spoke to us and everyone loved their cookie to take home knowing the proceeds all went to a good cause. Plus it was all vegan and nut free, which just couldn't be beat for our wedding and nothing was dry at all. Would definitely recommend them for your wedding needs!“
“Great teamwork from the staff to make sure the community is always known of what’s going on. The staff make sure you feel welcome and like you are in a safe place not only for you but for your child as well. When I lived on Edison ave I would take my dog with me and they always provided a water bowl for him. I loved going there as it was an easy walk for me to handle. I’d love to live back in that area to be able to go back to scout. I also know they do a lot of stuff with Heathers Pretty Parties so that makes it an even cooler place to go to with kids! I can’t wait to be able to take my niece there!“
“I've worked as a pizzaiolo for three years mainly woodfire. I ferment and have been making my own sourdough for the same amount of time. Just ordered and devoured the vegan seasonal pizza! Amazing place, quality, and ethos. love this place.“
“Their service is very good and time efficient. I ordered a customized cake 3 hours before pickup. They prepared it fresh and well on time. I ordered 2 cakes, pistachio and butterscotch. Everyone loved the flavour and the texture of bread. The best thing is that they were not extremely sweet and the cakes had more bread and less cream. I think this is the best Indian bakery in winnipeg.“
“Best cupcakes hands-down! Stumbled across this shop while looking for a cake store. So glad we did! Every cupcake was absolute delight.Will surely recommend! We ordered vi SkipTheDishes. They gave us a delicious brownie on the house too !!!!“
“Excellent quality meats, produce, fish and cheese, in a warm and inviting atmosphere make La Grotta worthwhile every time. They have hard to find italian coffees, an interesting array of soft drinks you won't find anywhere else, an awesome wood-fired pizza forno oven, some amazing hand-made chocolates, and a great selection of gelato.“
“I've been there twice and so far I've liked the loaves and croissants; the mauricettes and pretzels are excellent; the tropézienne tart is good even if the cherry is a little surprising. On the other hand, I found their pineapple-coconut pastry rather ordinary.I will go back there !“
“Great experience. I had made a mistake on a very large order (totally my fault) and the staff was able to accomodate and go out of their way to fulfill the order changes last minute. Everyone who tried the cookies loved them. Thanks again to the staff who helped me out in a tight “
“Bambi and Demi have made my last 3 visits amazing. Customer service is great and they remembered me and wanted to ensure everything was correct even when we all knew it was my fault. They were kind and gracious and this absent-minded mom just needed that. Will be back often! Thank you Bambi and Demi!!!“
“I just moved in across the street in the apartments in February and I have been here almost everyday. The food is amazing especially the Ecuadorian panini. The pastry’s are also amazing and fresh. Sitting down and having breakfast is one of the best and my girlfriend loves the iced caramel latte. I can’t wait to keep coming back again and again and the staff is very nice and friendly with a great family owned business“
“The desserts are fantastic in my own options.They do offer a great selection to satisfy your craving and sweet tooth.They do offer sandwiches to which I will like to try when I have more free time on my hands to grab one and they look delicious ?“
“Very buttery croissants! They have special of the day breads or buns not usually offered on a regular basis. This is take out only. There is a cafe a few stalls away. This street is mostly industrial business and one would not imagine having food places such as this bakery, a cafe, a kombucha place, a pizzeria.“
“I had a smoke meat sandwich the other day, it was amazing just like in Montreal!!! I will be getting a weekly Smoked Meat to fill my cravings! The bagels are amazing as well with so many different flavors! Worth every penny! I was greeted by friendly happy staff that were more than happy to serve me and answer my questions. I 100% recommend this place!!“
“I absolutely adore this bakery. The best sourdough in the city, but not only that, the people who own and operate it are kind and inclusive. Not only is it a queer safe environment, they treat EVERYONE with dignity and respect, regardless of appearance, housing status, etc.Truly a community staple for the west end, and very much worth the trip if you live in another neighbourhood. 13/10 would recommend.“
“As I did not have time in the AM to get to the bakery before 1 PM, I called with my order and they were able to set it aside ( even though their stock was limited)When I arrived, I was greeted by pleasant servers who filled my order and more.Oh yes and their pastries are amazing.“
“Visited 28/05/2023.Delicious selection of sweet treats, we wish we could have bought one of everything. It was very colourful and smelt divine. We bought a chocolate chip cookie sandwich and a cookie dough tub. They were really nice, but a little too sweet for us. Would visit again to try some other options.Vegetarian options: There are vegetarian options available.Wheelchair accessibility: It is on the first floor of the Forks market but there is a elevator.“
“I really like this place I go there once a week while I’m working I grab Bifanna (pork in a bun) it’s so good there they give you onions and banana peppers. It’s a really tasty. They also have such good prices and the staff are very friendly“
“I love how I walked in was able to find all the items that they post on instagram like the soft ginger bread. The vegan tarts. I even was able to pick up the last ready for you to prepare pizza dough and vegan cheese.Dietary restrictions: Vegan“
“I have been really disappointed every time In have been in there the two front girls are not very nice or personal. each time I have been there i feel like I am in there way. interrupting their time. so sad for a bakery that has been around for long“
“Everything was so good! I ordered several different menus and the Korean Sausage Bread & Mocha Bun was the best. Overall, it was a bit ‘too’ sweet for me but if you are someone who likes sweet desserts, you should definitely check out. The owner, Avril is also super friendly!“
“A great local bakery and it’s a GEM. They have a good selection of baked goodies which are all baked in house. They also offer a variety of fresh made soups and sandwiches. The unique flavour and texture hits all the high notes and much more.Their staffs are friendly and their passion for baked goods shows in the quality and taste.Support this local business and treat your tastebuds at the same time.“
“Sorry this is a late post. Thank you so much for the AWESOME Salted Caramel Cake. You were absolutely right, we were not disappointed!!! Right from the phone order to picking the cake up was great!!! This was a first time order and you can bet I'll be back!!! Thank you again!!! You and your staff rock!!!“
“Excellent croissants! The very best I have ever eaten. I have tried most of their menu items but I will keep going back to the Nutella croissant. I even had some of my friends try and now we drive for upwards od half an hour on the weekends to enjoy these croissant and a nice warm cup of coffee!“
“The beauty of this bakery is its consistency even during the pandemic! You will always get what you need. I am not living in Winnipeg. But my visit to Winnipeg is not complete without visiting Arabelle's bakery. The taste and texture their bread makes a big difference. Very succulent and not sugary. For those who relocated to Canada from Nigeria, its a pleasant reminder of a popular bread in Lagos(Nigeria). Only few bakeries can compete with Arabelle's bakery in terms of quality. If you have never tasted the bread before, it is safe to say that you are missing out. Give it a try please.“
“I live less than a block away from here and they have always been so so nice, but recently I had the absolute unreasonable hospitality moment from them. My partner absolutely loves the mini egg brownie the release every March. Knowing this I reached out asking when they'd be releasing them and if I could place a bigger order for her as a surprise. They told me when they'd have them, but not only that, they held off posting about the release to make the surprise even better!! Like who does that!?! People who care do that. People who have hospitality as part of who they are. Just the absolute best!!!! Also their lunches are fantastic, burger week burger is always top notch, but their baked goods are what ya need to get. From the fresh baked breads, to the croissants, to all the sweets!!! Just the best!! Thank you so much“
“The Double Dare cake is amazing, and we also love the rum balls. Staff is always kind and helpful. We have been visiting them for many years when they were previously known as “Pastry Castle”, and they have always been consistently very good!“
“Amazing sourdough bakery. Definitely European crust on the sourdough. Not inexpensive but high quality. Many sophisticated flavor options. Beautiful breads and croissants. The fruit and nut sourdough was too hard to stop eating. The vegan potato croissant was an amazing savory croissant. Definitely recommend.“
“We had never tried Double D’s, but we are so happy we did! Wanted to support another local business and with 4 of us who like different flavours, I thought the variety cheesecake package would work well. A very large cheesecake, sectioned into different flavours. Our girls loved the banana and Key lime the best but didn’t complain sampling all of the other delicious cheesecakes. Highly recommend! Will definitely be ordering again! The Madill’s“
“I have been to other bakeries in Winnipeg and this is the best quality of bread, taro roll and mango pudding. The bread is so fresh, yummy and SOFT! Customer service is very outstanding too, they make u feel like u are family!Definitely, My go to place for bakery.“
“I recently found out about this bakery and something told me not to hesitate ordering even though I had no idea what anything tasted like! I recently went gluten, dairy and soy free, I ordered a mixed berry pie, chicken pot pie, sourdough cinnamon buns, oatmeal raisin cookies, sourdough bread and sourdough hamburger buns.. the cookies.. to die for, the sourdough bread.. it’s killing me how delish it is.. and everything else looks so yummy I’m trying hard to space it out so I don’t put myself in a food coma. Do not hesitate to order, you will not regret it. Thank you @cocoabeans for providing such a delish alternative tt people who have food intolerances.. #customerforlife ❤️❤️❤️“
“This bakery totally deserves a 5-star rating. The breads, cinnamon buns, cookies, muffins, wild rice bannock buns, all made with fresh and healthy ingredients, are incredibly delicious. I don't live in the area, but make special trips into the city just to buy their products.“
“No matter which cakes from Cake-ology we try, they are always at the highest level of taste and quality! Ordered a cake for my daughter's birthday. A wonderful and delicious cake! Excellent service! Very supportive, creative and flexible team. Thank you for caring so much and delivering good emotions to our kids! Highly recommend! ?? “
“I’ve been here multiple times and I can say that I never come out with just what I originally intend to get. Their cupcakes are the best ones that I’ve had, especially the cookie dough one, they’re not dry at all and just the perfect sweetness! The cake drops and cookie dough bites are also incredible! It’s so hard to resist not getting all of this whenever I visit because they’re so delicious!“
“Recently ordered from them, it was last minute order. I called around 1:30 pm for cake order and I was surprised they made it so quickly that it was ready to be picked up by 4:00 pm same day. The cake was beautiful, very tasty, fresh, had right amount of moisture, very soft and the cream was not too sweet. Everything was just perfect. Also the owners are super nice. I Will definitely order from them again and will highly recommend everyone to try their cakes. The price is right too. Thank you Amar bakery for the yummiest cake“
“I had the most friendly and helpful server at your location on Academy on 2 different Friday nights. I was slightly overwhelmed with the options and she had great suggestions. Her and her coworker were so kind and obviously were a great team. Beautiful art on my coffee and amazing pastries. Will definitely be back“
“Authentic Cantonese pastries with a long history in Winnipeg’s China Town. A go-to favourite with the local Cantonese community for their buns and pastries, but also for their durian and fruit cakes for birthdays and other celebrations. Highly recommend the pineapple bun, coconut bun, and the egg tarts. Also highly recommend going when the buns are freshly baked in the mornings. Just have to remember they accept cash only.“
“Every baked goods they sell is delicious! They have fresh pandesal all the time! The pandesal is so good even without any spread. My favourite is the cheese bread, because it's so plain but full of flavour. Everything is also decently priced! You also need to try the Yema Ensaymadas!“
“I was hosting a backyard event for a special occasion. Harvest Bakery was able to make me a custom image cake that blew my expectations. Not only did it look great, it tasted wonderful.I was also looking for sausage buns. Right when I walked into the bakery, the buns (a large verity) were sitting right there waiting for me. They were a hit with the bbq’ed sausages. Got so many compliments on the bread.Will be shopping and doing all my custom image cakes with them in the future.“
“Great everything!!! Love Cape Seed Bread! Scones and buns as well!Just updating my review after shopping here for some time. The ham and cheese croissant/pull aparts - or any baking with ham and cheese (or just cheese) don’t have near enough ham and/or cheese in them. Not worth buying.“
“a big group of us popped into indulge as it was next to our hotel and the staff was so kind and patient with us. not to mention the CUTE VALENTINES CUPS???? the pastries were delicious and i would definitely recommend this to anyone staying nearby, perfect spot for breakfast or a break in your “
“Great place to get British pies, black pudding ,square sausage, even have haggis. The steak and kidney pies are great, tender meat and tasty gravy. The square sausage and black pudding are actually from henry meats in Brandon. But i believe that every thing else is made on the premises.“
“The pastries are amazing here! By far the best I've tasted in Winnipeg. The cannoli's are so light. I am a chocolate freak but I also love their lemon fillings in various pastries. I have been meaning to go here forever but just hadn't gone it. Now I can't stay away!“
“The macarons and baguettes are delicious. The macarons are great and I like the taste of the inside of the baguettes. I like the French decorations and the people working here are very friendly. The eclairs are really mouthwatering. This is a certified five star bakery.Kid-friendliness: For a kid like me, the employees are very nice to me.“
“Tonight we had one of the best customer service experiences we’ve had in long time. Menchie is an absolute angel!!! We had our friends over who are expecting their first baby. Decided to order in desert but when we finished the selection and went to order on skip, the store was closed for orders - by two minutes. We decided to phone to see if there was any way to let the order go through but they explained that is controlled by skip the dishes. To make a long story short, when they heard it was for a pregnant, newly expecting mother, Menchie offered to personally deliver our order after their shift ended and the store closed. They even threw in extra goodies at no added cost! Absolutely amazing! And of course, everything was delicious.“
“This is one of my go to places for cakes and desserts for occassions and celebrations. In my opinion the cakes can sometimes be more moist and airy but still really good. I loved their chocolate cakes and schmoo (might be too sweet for some people) They can also work on making the cakes more visually appealing. All in all a pretty solid option.“
“What an amazing place!We' ve discovered this tiny and adorable bakery only a few months ago. The variety of products and exceptional taste made it our favorite place to buy delicious desserts. Tiramisu and Kyiev cake are beyond any expectations. Homemade and naturally tasting without ant artificial aftertaste.My daughter's favorite is gluten-free perogies, a good option for a quick healthy meal. We'd recommend anyone to go and give it a try, a nice and homey atmosphere, you won't be disappointed.“
