Pastries here were fantastic! My boyfriend and I tried an assortment of baked goods, from eclairs to gingerbread men—none of which disappointed! Lovely place to stop by for a sweet treat, though do note that there is no seating inside or nearby unfortunately. I also would have posted more photos of the treats but they were eaten before I had the chance to.

Delicious and affordable homemade bread. And the tea and treats are great too. Favorite is the multigrain loaf!

Today is my friend’s birthday and I planned to get a pumpkin pie for her. Only it has to be from Gingerbread Haus.
Six years ago, my first autumn in Canada, I randomly walked into Gingerbread Haus. Didn’t know what to pick, I chose to try the seasonal special, the pumpkin pie with whipped cream. It was amazing, so unforgettable.
The next time I walked in the shop. Sorry, the pumpkin pie was SOLD OUT.
Just like this, year after year, when it was in season, they sold out quickly; when it was not in season, no pumpkin pies.
Maybe you can give it a try on Easter. I was told so.
I tried. No Easter pumpkin pies. The bakeries were so good and business went so well that making pumpkin pies on Easter was not possible.
Luckily I stayed all these years in the same neighborhood and still have friends living nearby. After another random but magic afternoon walk, I pulled open the shop door and found the pumpkin pies available again.
Yes, this year we have the luck to enjoy another Gingerbread Haus pumpkin pie.
Tastes like the best part of life.

A simple bakery with delicious baked goods. Service was friendly, helpful and patient. Selection was excellent even when I came near the end of their day, and everything was amazing.
Got Almond Wheels, Mozart's, Gingerbread People, Nougat Wheel, and Lemon Shortbread. All were fantastic! Will be back!

Kinda sad they don’t have much for gingerbread options. But we got some snacks so it was ok. Didn’t seem to have much variety.

In last few years store became worse and worse...
I did love that store, and I remember when you guys got open, and my family always was customers for cakes there, even few times we had coffee in, not to go.
But last few times I got not fresh slice of cake, and not fresh full cake.
With memories, that mistakes could happened and everyone deserve second chance, I start to visit not that often.
But last time on Thursday July 10th I came to buy Rum bowls for a family gathering, first for so little desert price jump high from last time I bought it. and when I bought 5 of them, each cost $4.05, with tax I spend more than $23. and cashier did put them in small brown bag! when you selling desert for $4+ and its few of them, you serving it like piece of garbage or leftovers in brown bag.
No, I'm not coming back. To sell old deserts, and after treat customers like a garbage after giving you another chance... this place not for me!

My husband and I eloped in Germany in the fall, so for our little wedding celebration with friends and family this past weekend my mom ordered a bunch of pretzels to give to everyone. They reminded us so much of our trip! So yummy and beautiful! We ordered cookies too and they were absolutely beautiful, everything was delicious ! Awesome customer service too, we would definitely order from them and will have to pop in for a pretzel! 🥨

Nice local artisan bakery! Fresh sourdough.

I will definitely come back here again to try more backed goods!

I have come here for bread once or twice a week for the last 20 years. The schenken brote and multigrain loaves are exceptional, delicious and 100% good for you. The staff and the owner are extremely pleasant to deal with. My preference amongst the desserts is the bee sting it's a subtle and delicious thing.

I took 5 pieces just the brownies was ok.
The 2 eclairs with bad cream.
Dates cake and bee cake made 2 weeks ago.
Owner women not friendly and racial.

A lovely little bakery on Queen Street. If you like German/European breads and treats, this is the place. Great sourdough bread. They serve coffee as well.
