Patisserie/Cake Shops in Toronto, ON

“Always delicious and satisfying. Not too sweet. Love the choux and tarts. Tons of flavour in the tarts, and choux are so creamy and light. The tart shells could be a bit thinner, but I understand they'd get soggy to quick. Either way my mouth waters every time I drive by. They also have bubble tea now and it's very tasty.“

“This place is a sure gem! Everything from the top notch service to the clean and neat environment, to the exquisite desserts. We were so impressed. I had the 'Fruitmania' and it was very good. It was the first time trying ashta and the more I ate it, the more I fell in love with it. It was perfectly paired with the strawberry and mango juice. The right amount of sweetness! Ali, the owner, was so kind and attentive. We most definitely will be back! Can't wait for summer to enjoy the wonderful options for cold desserts and beverages. Thank you!“

“I found this little hidden gem on a walk, holy moly!! This place is truly stunning from the drinks to the cakes and the decor!! The staff are super super friendly and I had an amazing experience buying a cake for my little sister here:)) will be coming back here <3“

“Simply the best dark chocolate cake in the city. Barbershop seems to be known for its Lemon Bichon and this AMAZING cake, but man the sausage rolls, the almond croissants, the apple turnovers, etc are all amazing as well. Just order anything in the window and be happy you found a slice of joy in your day no matter what it is.“

“We used Kwento for our wedding last year. They delivered a beautiful, classic-looking cake, which was exactly what we wanted. The Citrus Olive Oil flavour was amazing, so many guests complimented it! Overall, Kwento was amazing to work with, especially Maria!“

“Decadent and Delicious! By far the best croissants I have ever indulged in 🤩 A must try!“

“WOW! halal options is amazing, staff were so kind and knowledgeable. The QUALITY is excellent. Not a crazy variety but each item has been perfected!

Will be here once a week from now on.

Recommend for halal options bakery items, would love to see this place get more love they deserve :) but this is a true hidden gem“

“What a lovely bakery! Thank you so much for the Earl Grey cake. WOW, it was delicious! And absolutely beautiful ♥️“

“If you’re someone who loves desserts or simply has a sweet tooth, this place is a must-visit. It’s a haven filled with a wide variety of sweet treats, beautifully presented and crafted with attention to detail. From the moment you step inside, you’re greeted with an inviting display of whole cakes to your left, showcasing their artistry and tempting you to take something home. These cakes are available for takeout, which you can easily order at the counter.

For those planning to dine in, the setup is very relaxed. There’s no need to wait to be seated—just find a spot, and a server will promptly come over to assist you and provide menus. It’s a smooth and comfortable experience that lets you settle in and enjoy the ambiance at your own pace.

We were curious about their High Tea service, but we were informed that it needs to be pre-ordered. So, if you’re thinking of trying that, make sure to plan ahead and place your order in advance. It’s something we’d definitely want to come back for next time.

As for the desserts we tried, they were absolutely delicious. Each item we sampled had its own charm and flavor profile, and it was clear that a lot of care goes into their preparation. From presentation to taste, everything was spot-on. This is definitely the kind of place I’d love to come back to whenever I’m in the mood to indulge or simply hang out with friends over coffee and sweets.

The ambiance also adds to the charm. There’s a touch of elegance throughout, with gold accents that elevate the space and give it a refined yet cozy feel. Even their to-go coffee containers have a touch of gold, which adds to the overall thoughtful branding and aesthetic.

All in all, this place offers a wonderful dessert experience—perfect for casual visits, special treat days, or catch-ups over coffee and cake. I’m already looking forward to my next visit.“

“Nailed this anniversary cake and delivered on time! I could not be in the province to taste it but everyone who did was very happy! Thank you for making our special occasion even more special!“

“This is the best pastry I have ever had anywhere, and I’ve traveled quite a lot in France.“

“Visited in the morning on October 5th 2025, and staff were super friendly and welcoming! I've been coming to this location for some time now, and I can always trust I'll be given great service and great food. Their smoked salmon sandwiches are my go to.“

“Absolutely must try breakfast and coffee spot. The breakfast sandwiches will change your life. Forget Starbucks - or any other coffee or pastery place, once you eat anything here your going to be mad you wasted money anywhere else. The food is rich, melt in your mouth fresh and will sell out if you wait too long!! Also, personally as an Italian who loves his espresso, the pull here is nothing short of amazing and if socially accepted I’d eat just that pistachio paste on its own like Nutella from a jar 😅“

“I recently moved my Job so I commute from Donlands station. Just gave a try to this cute closest cafe early in the morning while waiting for my bus. Girl who serves is very nice and friendly. She tries her best to accommodate my low sugary drinks ❤️❤️ thank you .“

“Wonderful new addition to the neighborhood. I'm admittedly a pretty big coffee snob, and my first latte was *excellent*! Great selection of sweet and savory treats (vegan options too), super-friendly service, and cozy, inviting atmosphere. Welcome to the neighborhood! Onyx Uriarte Sheri Fogarty Misha A Pobegs Heather Cardona Matvey Kipershtein Fotheringham Diane We have a new cafe around the cor er!“

“Took my granddaughters on Saturday for a treat… they loved it! So did I! Delicious and so many choices I’ll have to come back to try more for sure. staff was friendly too.“

“Check out Velvet Lane Cakes, there blueberry muffins are to die for!“

“Oh oh oh …. This was a find! First time ordering sweet and savory treats from this cafe! And OH I will be back. Flavour explosions, flaky and crunchy, caramelized and expertly sugared creations. Do not skip the opportunity to get out to this delight of a cafe!
Sorry no photos because I ate everything before thinking! 🙂😋🤗“

“When I first stumbled upon Nadege on Queen West in 2010, I had no idea I was about to walk into a place that would become so much more than a pastry shop to me. Back then, it felt like a breath of fresh air—a modern, clean haven offering a dazzling variety of delicious creations. I quickly learned that the magic behind it all was Nadège Nourian, a fourth-generation French pastry chef from Lyon. Knowing her family's rich history made every bite feel like a connection to a long, beautiful tradition of craftsmanship.

Over the years, this place has become a constant in my life. It's where I go for the intricate layers of the Marie Antoinette cake, a true masterpiece of flavour and texture. The individual donut cakes are a sweet, delightful indulgence, and the canelés—my absolute must-have—are a perfect symphony of crispy, caramelized shell and soft, custardy center. They are the simple, elegant pastries I always return to, a little taste of perfection every time.

But Nadege is more than just pastries. It’s a wonderful spot for a light breakfast, a quick snack, or a delicious small sandwich. It has been a quiet witness to so many moments, both big and small, in my life. Every visit feels like coming home, and with each canelé, I'm reminded of the simple joy of discovering something truly special. It’s a place that not only satisfies my cravings but also touches my heart with its unwavering commitment to beauty and flavour.“

“Au Pain Dore is a gem! Their food quality and service is exceptional! Ardi is very helpful and friendly and tried her best to accommodate late small requests which was truly amazing! I would definitely recommend to our folks in downtown for their catering needs“

“Friendly service, great patio for eating with our dogs and delicious food. On top of all that, I accidentally left my handbag on the patio and when I realized it a few hours later, I called and they had kept it for me behind the counter. I really appreciated their kindness! We will definitely return… thank you again!“

“Went to Butter Baker for brunch two weekends in a row. This place has a very quiet, lowkey vibe if you're early enough, but gets very busy throughout the brunch hours. The wait to be seated can be up to 40 minutes at times, so I recommend arriving early to secure a spot. We ordered the Yuzu chicken and waffles and the honey garlic chicken and waffles, and were impressed by both. The Yuzu tossed chicken was tangy and paired perfectly with the sweet waffles. The portion sizes were a bit inconsistent, but otherwise a great meal.“

“I finally had the chance to visit Bomou with my fam and it was a lovely experience from start to finish! We had the lemon meringue tart, bostock (brioche with almonds and flavoured with orange), apple caramel cookies, butter croissant, a piece of pie, a baguette, and an earl grey canele. To drink we had the coffee, an oat milk cappuccino, and the lavender lemonade! We also bought some of the loose leaf mint tea as a gift. Everyone adored what they ordered! All of the pastries were beautiful to the eye and wonderful on the palate! Flavours such as the orange in the bostock, the lemon in the tart and even the earl grey in the canele were fragrant and gentle, never overpowering or overwhelming! Beautiful texture to all the foods and even the drinks were impressive and expertly crafted! Their coffee is some of the very very best I have had in Canada. (Rich and velvety, non-astringent and not-sharp.) If you want a proper cup of coffee you’ll find it here!!! Their lavender lemonade is gorgeous! I love lavender and found this to be a delicate and refreshing combination and recommend you definitely try it out!!! (Plus the bottle is lovely!) We all were impressed with the helpful, friendly and knowledgeable staff and were amazed by the talent and creativity of their baker/chef! Thank you Boumou for a delicious experience!!!!!“

“great Croissants and expresso 🥐“

“Great viennoiserie, pastries, cakes 😋“

“I ordered a birthday cake here the first time. I expected the writings will be placed on top of the retangular cake. There are lots of empty spaces... why they put the writing on a very tiny piece of chocolate and put it at the side of the bottom. It was hardly to see what was in the writing. For what occasion and for who! Quite disappointed! And they charged me a price of $17 more according to their listed price of $65 for a 8"x12" cake. Plus an extra of $20 for the pair of baby shoes (a plastic toy) for decoration. I also tried their bread, also find the textures are hard to chew... I wont return again.“

“There is 'big A' ACCESSIBILITY, wherein establishments make themselves a welcoming environment to those with disabilities and special needs; then there is 'little a' accessibility, where they will manage, tolerate, and make you feel uncomfortable at best. I'd like to give Future Bakery at the corner of Brunswick and Bloor a solid 5/5 little a's for their (lack) of AODA aware service today. I don't think members of your community who have lived here for decades deserve to leave your establishment crying because of the lack of knowledge or compassion from your staff and service. Step up and perhaps (re)train everyone re: AODA guidelines? I will no longer be returning. LEVEL UP Future Bakery , thanks for adding insult to injury: your takeout cups are faulty, and mine fell out from the bottom including pouring my hot coffee all over me.“

“The pastries are amazing, so delicious.“
