Walked past this place and saw a sign that said “Best Apple Fritters in town!” I was intrigued and had to find out for myself.
Let me tell you… this is one of the best apple fritter I have ever had! It had the right amount of glaze on the outside. The right amount of apple pieces on the inside. Not too sweet and a good balance of flavor and texture throughout. The size was just right. I can eat one by myself, but I did end up sharing it. It is enough to satisfy two people. Also the price was very reasonable.
Finding a place to sit and enjoy your food can be challenging, especially during busy times. They have two benches in front of their shop where you can sit.
The next day, I was day dreaming of how good it was. I ended up going back to get another before my vacation trip was over.

I ordered two sandwiches and they only gave me one; when I tried to pay for another, they refused to accept cash.

Famous peameal bacon sandwich is great
Had a craving for an Apple Fritter.
Found the perfect place at the St. Lawrence Market.
These are a good size, we couldn’t finish them.
So yummy!!
The inly thing missing was a nice warm cup of coffee…
The Carousel Bakery is a must try.

I don’t typically leave negative reviews, but the quality was poor enough that it made me feel nauseous and we discarded it.
We ordered an apple fritter and a Jamaican patty. The fritter was extremely oily and, similar to another review I just read, had a stale/bitter aftertaste as if it was fried multiple times in old oil.
When ordering the patty, I was asked if I wanted it heated. I said yes but didn’t realize that “heating” meant it was going to be microwaved in the paper bag for 90 seconds, making the patty very soggy. The pastry/dough was not flaky, had a sour smell, and the filling inside tasted off.
I share this feedback in the hope that it encourages better quality control and food handling in the future.

Peameal Bacon Sandwich does not taste like bacon and it's dry... the free sauce station on the side helps.

We visited the St. Lawrence Market today to enjoy the Christmas Market and do some shopping. We were drawn to the delicious-looking apple fritters inside the building kiosk. We purchased one and sat outside by the fire to enjoy it. It was fresh...but something was very off with the taste. It tasted like soap or possibly dirty frying oil. The after-taste was horrendous. The bakery kiosk outside were very apologetic and kindly replaced it. We took it home and tasted the new one. Same disturbing taste and after-taste. Like bitter soap. For $4...the bakery needs to investigate their baking methods. Until then....avoid!

Didn’t try their most signature item - the peameal bacon sandwich; and tried the Portuguese custard tart instead
Not a big fan of custard tarts: prefers egg tarts instead

Custard tarts - new owners, new prices - 28% increase - yikes!
I’ve been a regular for years, yes prices increased, but the new owners just hit the tarts with a huge increase.
I’m moving my tart business to Churrasco’s down the hall - picked up some great tarts today!
The tradition continues. Peameal bacon on a bun as it is as good as ever!
