Place was busy which is a good sign. The staff was helpful and attentive. Ordered several variety of tarts. Portuguese custard tarts were good. And the bean tart was one of the best I've ever had.

We are always greeted with friendly service. The Portuguese tarts and custard cannolis are my favourites. The sandwiches are always fresh and delicious. 4 stars for food simply because I prefer a different type of whipped cream in my cakes and eclairs.
The Portuguese custard tarts are excellent! Best I've had. I would highly recommend.

The minute we walked into the bakery we were greeted with big smiles! Had the privilege of meeting the owner of the bakery who was a delight! The sandwiches were quite tasty and the baking was top notch! Incredible! Highly recommend going!

Was visiting from out of town and spent quite a bit of money in this bakery. When I tried the bread, it all tasted and smelled like laundry soap. I had to put the breads in other bags and they still smell and taste awful. I suggest that the bakery use unscented laundry products and far less of them. I will not be purchasing here again.

Horrific experience. I was dinning with 8 guests. The owner proceeded to argue with a customer about pricing. A young employee had clearly made the error. The customer was debating the matter, when the owner clearly said “I will take the difference out of her cheque”. This lead the customer to be outraged. As a bystander I was blown away that she had said this. The customer left and I commented on my experience and that mistakes happen. The owner proceeded to say that she was stressed, meanwhile the teenage employee was sobbing. She proceeded to argue with me and I said you lost 9 customers because over one comment. I said we would review the experience, her response was “all you people pay Pennies anyways”. I work in the field of mental health and I am always cognizant of burnout, stress etc.. The owner of a business abusing an employee over a 15 dollar mistake was one of the most uncomfortable things I’ve ever witnessed. The other employees appeared horrified. I had 8 guests. I told them about this wonderful place to get cupcakes. This is what they watched. I hope the young lady reads this and quits and complains about this. There are bad experiences but this was horrifying. I sure hope the person with the original issue comments. I will ensure that every person in my circle is aware of this. Inexcusable and disgusting. As I left, she said “it’s not her first mistake”. I am a huge fan of small businesses but this one is a disgrace. I will always be sympathetic to burnout, however destroying a young person that provided my 8 guests with manners and precision did much better than the person running the business.

Google search did not fail us! This place is amazing! Service is friendly and knowledgeable and the baked goods so flavourful, tasty, beautifully presented! We will be back again… and again!!
Ordered 2 big boxes of cookies for an event. 100$ for dry stale cookies. Such a rip off. They also put Christmas themed cookies in the box that wasn't supposed to be their Christmas box. So disappointing. I'll try the other bakeries in town. I wish I read reviews before I picked the first bakery on my feed. My mistake.
Great lunch spot, the grilled sandwiches are delicious and fresh. But the pastries are the best.

Terrible customer service, take advantage of customers. Cake orders outrageously priced for what you get. Do yourselves a favor and do not support this business.
