12 Best Bakeries near Lake View

“The Timmy's That Tops Them All!Ah, Tim Horton's—Canada's culinary beacon, a place where doughnuts and coffee reign supreme, and where I, a seasoned connoisseur of the fast-food fine arts, find myself almost religiously after the daily school drop-off ritual with my boys. Now, I've reviewed more Timmy's than I have fingers and toes (which is less than most), but this particular spot? It's the sprinkle on my doughnut, the cream in my coffee, the MVP of my morning routine!Let's set the scene: It’s a typical bustling morning, and here I am, steering my brood into our local Tim Horton's, which I swear must be run by caffeine-fueled wizards or, at the very least, the most organized band of baristas this side of the Niagara Falls. I’ve been coming here long enough that I'm half-expecting a plaque with my name—or at least a dedicated parking spot. But no such luck yet!This specific Timmy's isn't just a stop on the map; it's a beacon of consistency in the unpredictable odyssey of life. Many a time, I've witnessed the tragic comedy of misheard orders at other establishments, where "I said a double-double, not a trouble-trouble!" echoes through the establishment. But not here, oh no. Here, they get it right. Every. Single. Time. It’s like they’ve got some sort of doughnut divination skills.Over the years, I've sampled an impressive array of Timbit varieties, sipped every seasonal beverage (even the ones that made me question the nature of pumpkin spice), and I’ve become something of a local sandwich savant. And yet, despite the culinary roulette I play with each order, my local Timmy’s has maintained an unwavering record of precision. It's as if they've tapped into my very soul, reading my order before it's even whispered at the drive-thru.So, how do they fare on the "Zack's Best of Timmy's" leaderboard? Let’s just say, if I were handing out Timmy’s Trophies, these guys would be lugging home the grand prize. They’ve become such a staple of our daily lives that my boys might start thinking their middle names should’ve been Timbit, Double-Double, and Iced Capp.And let's have a little chuckle at the fact that despite the infinite complexities of my life—as a purveyor of fine advertising, a wrangler of three future gentlemen, and a partner to my better half—my day often hinges on the success of this pivotal morning transaction. It's a good thing then that this Tim Horton's has set the bar, and it's not just over a steaming cup of Joe, it's soaring high above it, with flying colors and a side of honey cruller.In conclusion, this Timmy's isn't just a pit stop—it's a part of the family. A deliciously reliable, heartwarmingly efficient part of our daily escapade. To the team that’s making the magic happen, keep up the extraordinary work. And just so you know, you've officially ruined me for all other Timmy's. How will I ever go back to mere mortal coffee shops after this?“

“Came to Buffalo for the Eclipse, which happened to be on my son's 9th birthday. The lover of all things chocolate! With 6 days notice, the bakery was able to accommodate a custom 6" everything chocolate cake. When we went to pickup the cake, wem grabbed two funfetti cupcakes, a cinnamon bun and savory scone. It all exceeded expectations. The cake was beautiful and delicious! The frosting had to be the best part! Thank you for your hospitality and incredible customer service. You definitely made a young man's birthday cake dream come true!“

“I just wanted to say thank you for having delicious baked goods and coffee. Your staff is always so friendly, helpful and kind. little Henry asks everyday. Today we had "fancy" frosted cookies with a freshly brewed cup of coffee. Your staff was kind enough to come back out and get us a little glass of water for Henry, which he remembers from last time. Thank you again! We appreciate you all❤️“

Everyone is always so friendly and my daughters got a free cookie today! Pot pies are handmade and frozen, always delicious.“

“OMG please support this place amazing. I stopped here on a Tuesday afternoon and at first was disappointed because the selection was very limited. Figuring it was my fault for not going till 2pm to check the place out I ordered an eclair and a cherry turnover. NOT DISAPPOINTED ANY MORE. The eclair filling is amazing and the turnover looked sad but was flaky and sweet. I definitely recommend ?“

“Used to love shopping here until we would be approached by peddlers trying to sell us "cheaper" electricity or some other goofy scams. Not really the experience we had hoped for when buying a membership. If the scammers would leave us alone and let us shop in peace, that would be great. It is because of the risk of having to cross paths with these scammers. It makes shoppers uncomfortable!“

“Kathy is amazing..she has done 3 showers for me..cookies and cupcakes and everything is absolutely fabulous...the cookies are delicious and beautiful and so are the cupcakes...she always goes out of her way to make everything perfect and so accommodating...Kupkates is the first place I go to..I don't personally know her other then ordering and picking up but she makes you feel like every order is the most important and so is the customer...“

“My friend and I stopped in because we were visiting the Botanical Gardens and Our Lady of Victory Basilica nearby. We were hungry, but didn't want fast food or risk going to some sit down restaurant and waitng forever.We couldn't have made a better choice! We bought some meat, paneer and zatar pies and sodas. They warmed them up for us and we FEASTED! Delicious - in fact, after our visits to the Gardens and the Basilica, we CAME BACK and bought many more to take home.Along with the food, they have a grocery store full of interesting, tasty things.Additionally, there is a whole separate section devoted to wonderful Middle Eastern clothing and perfumes!Awesome - didn't want to leave, but keep on exploring!Kid-friendliness: Kid friendly as in kids are indeed welcome.“

“We went in for lunch. The Steak Hogie was very good. The antipasto salad was good. The Pastry is Outrageous. Breakfast all day. 8 to 4pm. Stop in and try it. If you haven't been in a while. You've been missing out on some Great Food.“
