The butter tarts were very good and the butter croissants were decent. Will have to try the other types of croissants if they haven’t run out yet near lunch

Some of the best croissants I’ve ever had. All of the people that work there are some of the nicest people. I don’t know what the low reviews claiming that the old man is rude are going on about. He’s the kindest man you’ll ever meet. He remembers me every time I go, and I’m far from a regular. He always remembers what I like!
Sujin Hong
Very sweet owner and the baked goods were reasonably priced and very tasty!
Elysia
Friendly staff, best for its bread

Ive been coming here since I was little and it has always stayed my favourite bakery! The owner is so kind and outgoing. My favourite dessert are the green tea cookies!

This is my favourite bakery in the downtown core! The breads, croissants and cheese buns are so good. It hits the mark every time! The owners are very kind as well, which is always nice to see. I highly recommend you take the time to visit and support this business.

Great neighbourhood bakery run by the nicest man. I pick up bread here on weekends - every kind I’ve tried has been delicious. Croissants are also very good.

This is my favourite bakery in the city, I love to stop by for a fresh pastry or baguette- often so fresh they are still warm!! And the owner is very kind. Can't recommend it enough.

Went in for a second time after enjoying the croissant (albeit he doesn’t warm them up even though they’re not fresh). I went to pay with my Amex and the owner (old oriental man) started screaming at me like a child. Then he went in the back and ignored me like I wasn’t standing there. First time in my life I’ve seen someone 70 years old act like he’s 7.
He needs to seriously learn some respect, 0 class, surprised it’s still in business with how decrepit and disgusting shape the store is in.

The man working at this bakery was incredibly cocky and rude. He actually yelled at us for asking a simple question and made it very clear he didn’t want to serve us. Completely unprofessional and disrespectful — it felt like we were inconveniencing him just by walking in. There are plenty of bakeries that actually want customers — do yourself a favour and go somewhere else.
one of the best chocolate croissants i've ever had. and i am a frequent consumer of croissants. EXCEPTIONALLY flaky, rich and buttery, with perfectly sweet chocolate. it was so exceptional. its all i will be thinking about.

I stopped by here yesterday to pick up some pastries and had an amazing experience!... This place makes everything from scratch, and it smells fantastic when you walk in! It reminds me of the small town bakery I used to go to as a kid. We had some scones, brownies, butter tarts (with/without raisins) and some chocolate croissants. While everything was fabulous, I have to give an honourable mention to the chocolate croissant. This place is a gem, and has an amazing history. I look forward to returning! Their history on the wall tells about their long journey to where they are now...

Great fresh country white loaf - can't be beat with very friendly service.
