Esther’s is an amazing place. Her cupcakes are delicious and beautiful. My favorite hot food is her meatball sandwiches. They are amazing. Our office is upstairs and When we have people visiting us I always buy cupcakes from here. Esther also is one if the warmest, friendliest people I know. She makes the whole building better. Everybody in here knows her and loves her. She also gets a lot of regular clients from outside who come specifically for her good food.

This place is truly a hidden gem, one of my favourites in the city! It's hard to believe such an amazing cafe exists in such a small office building, but this spot is definitely worth coming in for! They have the most incredible selection of sweets, from classic croissants and muffins to premium cupcakes, dessert bars, mousses and other delicious treats! They even have great healthy options! Everything tastes as incredible as it looks. The quality of the menu items and the friendly service keep me coming back over and over again! Thank you Esther and team for keeping this amazing spot alive, it's such a special place! :)

Esther is truly the heart and soul of this bakery! I come here almost every day when I’m at work, and it’s become such a comforting part of my routine. She’s not only incredibly hardworking but also has this sassy charm and warmth that makes the whole place feel like home.

Her chicken burger and grilled cheese are my go-to favorites (don’t sleep on the juicy burger either — it’s so good!). Every bite tastes like it was made with love, and you can feel the care she puts into everything she does.

If you’re looking for a spot that’s cozy, delicious, and run by someone who gives it her all — this is it. Esther, you’re amazing. Thank you for everything you do! 💛

From our first conversation, Esther showed so much kindness. She is truly the sweetest person and her baking is such a reflection of that. Our experience with her was seamless and our wedding cake was everything we wanted and more. It was so beautiful and tasted so good even days after our event. I would definitely recommend Esther to anyone looking for a cake or other dessert especially for a wedding. My husband and I are so glad we went with Esther’s Cakes & Sweets for our big day!

After leaving an appointment in the building, I was drawn by the smell of baked goods in the lobby of the building. Picture the cartoon character floating through the air, following the scent of a fresh baked pie cooling on the window sill. I got a Breakfast Sandwich, which was cooked to perfection, but I am only halfway through my first Salted Caramel Bar (so happy I bought two) and I had to pull over to write a review. It is everything I needed this dessert to be, absolute perfection. Happy that I've got a follow-up appointment in the building in two weeks so I have an excuse to go back. Also, the woman there, I will assume it's the owner/Esther, is a gem of a human being. She was super delightful the entire time I was there.
