I came to Bloomers with my friends and the food was delicious. All of the food is Vegan (lactose free) and they offer lots of gluten free options. I was there with a group of 12 people and I found it was difficult for them to manage such a large group. They ended up being sold out of a lot of items and they forgot an order. We then had to ask them to redo it. I felt really bad for my friend who had to wait over an hour for her food. Once her dish arrived, she said it was fantastic. I would definitely go back but I would only go with 2-4 people to avoid the delay of trying to push together tons of tables and waiting on food they forgot to prepare in the kitchen. read more

We stumbled into this place because a nearby coffee shop was full. I was surprised when I tried to order a cappuccino with 2% milk, the staff said it was a vegan place and that they only had soy or almond milk. I was surprised because this is the first vegan only place that I've been too! I got a chocolate cookie that tasted amazing for vegan food! The seats was nice and comfy. They had outlets everywhere for you to charge a laptop or phone. The cost was fair for vegan baked goods. I had two issues. First, when the front door opened, the draft from the outside came in. I had to keep my jacket on because of it. It would be good if they had a curtain to cover the entrance to limit the draft. Second, they close at 6pm on Fridays. Would be cool if they were open until later. I will come back to try their vegan meals! read more

I went into this place with high expectations, looking to get a warm cup of Matcha on this rainy day, when the barista  rudely corrected me saying " Let me correct you its pronounced MAKA" and I thought to myself maybe I have been or maybe she doesn't know herself, so I didn't think anything of it. A few minutes later she brought over a drink which was indeed the wrong drink, she gave me a MACA latte. Frustrated, I confronted her she insisted I was the wrong one and that a MACA latte was what I ordered. She refused to correct my order and insisted I pay for it! What kind of stubborn individual works in the customer service industry and forces people to pay for things they never ordered in the first place and makes them feel like they are in the wrong and never admit to their own lack of Cafe beverages. Will never go back, Terrible, rude Batista and service! read more

We ordered four assorted filled donuts and they were very good! My only issue was we received two of the same donut in our pack. For the steeper price, and the fact that we only got a pack of four, it was disappointing that they would put two of the same donut in. If they had provided a truly assorted pack, they would have gotten 5 stars. read more

My favorite one was the blueberry filled cheesecake donut. It had the perfect balance between the sweetness of the blueberry frosting on top and cheesecake filling. Would definitely buy this one again. The rose pistachio was very interesting it tasted as I expected but I found it overly sweet and wouldn't buy it again. I found the icing too sweet and it was too bready at the bottom. I also tried the overhyped birthday donut which had absolutely no flavor and tasted too sweet and sugary. I was disappointed because its their very popular selling donut also because I love birthday cake flavor. I also tried the pumpkin spice donut, pecan tart donut, and they also were overly sweet. I wouldn't buy them again. read more

Came here while waiting to get tattoo'd at lucky 13 to have a rose pistachio vegan donut (amazing) and then came back two days later to check out their new brunch menu. I had the scramble breakfast plate and everything on it was great. The tofu scramble was different from what I'm used to but still good. My partner had the jackfruit sandwich which was also great. I think they need to get a better system for serving when it is busy, their two person staff works as a cafe but not great when you are providing table service. Would definitely go back though! read more

Over the weekend, my pal and I had every intention of having a work date together. But rather than working, we ended up here and had a huge vegan feast. I have never been to Bloomer's before, but have heard nothing but incredible things about their doughnuts. So I knew I had to order one. My friend also told me their onion rings were the best in the city, but apparently, they have taken them off the menu. So that was also a write-off. The vibe of the place is cozy and casual. It gets super busy on a Saturday afternoon. The service was a bit slow at times, given how busy it was. But that was okay because my friend and I were catching up. I ended up ordering the "Other" bowl ($14) with tofu (additional $2) which was delicious and was topped with greens, cabbage slaw, sweet potato, black beans, cranberries and tahini dressing. My pal gave me a bit of her pulled jack sandwich and it was incredible. Literally tasted like pulled pork. They serve Reunion Island Coffee in-house and it is tasty as heck. Just keep in mind, they don't serve dairy milk. Oh, and their tea menu looked pretty great as well. Btw, their doughnuts are totally worth the hype. I'm not a person who is into sweets and I was shocked. So chewy and soft and delightful. I'm craving another one, tbh. read more

We wanted something different for our brunch wedding reception "cocktail hour", so we reached out to the vegan bakeries in town about ordering mini cinnamon buns. Bloomer's was quick to reply and coordinate a reasonable price, pickup timing, and were happy to accommodate my request to have half with raisins (and made my dad very happy). The cinnamon buns were a huge hit and we're both tasty and cute looking. Bloomer's was the perfect vendor for us and expectations were more than met! read more

Legitimately impressed in these vegan baked goods, and that's as a guy who doesn't actually care if things are vegan. I picked up a bunch of donuts, muffins, and other snacks to impress vegan clients and I'll say that everything I sampled was delicious. I wasn't a huge fan of the rosewater donut but others liked it so it's obviously a subjective flavour and not a fault of the donut itself. They were decent sized items too as we were able to cut them up to share and sample. Recommended! read more

Not technically vegan. Most products use butter that contains palm oil. They cancelled my cake order because they refused to find a substitute. Palm oil is NOT cruelty free or environmentally friendly! Very disappointed. read more

I just know here from searching bakery in Toronto. Also this place is pretty cozy and peaceful. I tried blueberry donut cuz the colour is so pretty ( I just thought that it is definitely raspberry flavour tho lool) It was the best doughnuts ever I tried... ! Sooo fluffy and super soft. Obviously I will come back soon ! read more

So wanting to treat myself after a stressful work day and from yesterday, I decided to go try out Bloomer's. I absolutely love trying out new vegan places and foods. I love supporting vegan food, great customer service, and local places. This is a Wednesday afternoon, around 4.30 pm. I'm looking forward to relax and try out something. I've travelled about 30 minutes from work on the TTC to get here. As soon as I walk in, I seem to be greeted by a double take from one of the employees. As if, what is this person doing here? I walk up to the cashier, and ask if there's a menu. So the guy who gave me a double take gave me a food menu. I sit down at one of their largest tables. There were two other girls across from me; looked like they were studying. I sat down at that table thinking, it's just myself, I don't want to take up a booth, or a two sweater since it's a small place, and I didn't want to sit on a high stool where the sunlight was streaming in. I didn't want to burn out my eyes and I find high stools uncomfortable. I take off my winter jacket, look at the menu. Wow, the items look great. Bbq pulled "pork", poutine, tempeh wings, etc. I look around. Usually in a minute or two a server would come and ask how you're doing, and see if you're ready to order. Maybe if I close my menu, someone would come. I'm sure that is the code at restaurants, food places, etc. But hey, what do I know. Maybe 10 minutes have passed. The girls have gotten up and moved to a booth. Perhaps they thought I was a weirdo or something. I understand if they didn't want someone else at their table, but I guess if they didn't want someone else at the largest table on the floor, they could've maybe moved to a booth earlier. Or maybe the rest of the tables were full and the largest one was the only one left. My bad then, should've hogged a booth to myself. 3, 2, 1...I have put my things back on, and got up. I walk straight to the same guy, who has just sat down to eat with a cellphone in his hand. I ask, was there someone going to take my order? He replies, oh sorry, let's get your order. He has gotten up, and I say, no, it's okay, you can go back to eating. I walk straight out the door, and the sunshine was great. If you are looking for amazing customer service, for people to acknowledge your presence, to be treated with dignity, and to enjoy your food in a welcoming environment, you won't get it at this place. Nevermind the food, no matter how good it is. Thanks for helping me save my money today. I can use that money to support the local businesses who actually give a damn about their paying customers. Also, I can support places where it's not racist and judgmental, as I was made to feel that from the very first step through the door. read more

Had it to go. The cookie cracked. Chocolate chip cookie 8/10 Like the texture: crispy at the edge and chewy in the middle, but too sweet for me. Brownie 8/10 It's overall cakey, a little bit gooey at the middle. The taste was rich with the chocolate batter and bunch of chocolate chips. And there was a sprinkle of salt to balance the sweetness. The first few bites were delightful, but it's a little bit too oily (I guess they need the oil to keep it moist) that I couldn't finish the entire thing. Rose water pistachio donut 9.5/10 Love it. The dough was chewy, light and moist. A little bit greasy. Not too sweet. The best part is the donut will make your finger smell like roses if you eat it with hand! read more

Bloomer's - The donut was so good! - Bakeries Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Perfect doughnut! Easily the best everything bagel I've had. You can taste how fresh everything is and made in house. Strongly recommend if you want a chill vegan spot with some quick bites for breakfast. Service was super friendly and place was clean and very laid back. read more

I want to start off by stating: I am a carnivore. Simulated meat is usually a major turn off for me. But I'm not super picky and I'm open to trying mostly anything. By default, because I moved around the corner, I started going to Bloomer's because I was new to the hood' and it was recommended to me by some ladies in my yoga community. THIS PLACE IS THE BEST. I go there all the time. You don't have to be vegan to love this spot. Weekend lazy mornings are for tumeric lattes and the DONUTS. Hands down, the best donuts I have ever tasted in my life. Other favs: - Kimchi Fries - Wakame Bowl - Tempeh Reuben Sandwich - Tempeh Wings *Siracha Spicy* Atmosphere is cute and service is super friendly. I usually do take out because I live one minute away. I'm craving the kimchi fries as I write this review... Mmmm.... read more

I ordered 3 cakes at $45 each. 2 of 3 of them had either freezer burn or were over cooked. It was actually difficult to cut. We knew something was wrong when we almost bent the wires putting sparklers in. I emailed them to let them know and no response. It was disappointing as I had told my family and friends about these delicious cakes. read more

Bloomer's - It's crumbling because it's either freezer burned or over cooked. - Bakeries Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

I was really excited to check this place out - my friends and I were here to grab some takeaway before heading to Christie Pits Park for a picnic. I got the Wakame bowl with tempeh: - Really expensive for what it is. This was the real deal-breaker for me - I just didn't feel I got the value for what I paid for takeaway. - Flavours were good, but it was not really designed well and seemed a bit of a mish-mash of different flavours. - Eating the seaweed was kind of ridiculous - huge long strands that were impossible to chew (not to mention, it was super hilarious for my friends to watch me try to bite the seaweed and just failing and ending up with a ton of seaweed dripping out of my mouth :P) - Takeaway service was very slow, so we waited about 25 minutes for 3 meals to be prepared. read more

Bloomer's is probably the only vegan restaurant I've ever been to that manages to stock a varied and balanced menu. Rather than leaning into one trend or another, the offerings here cater to a vast variety of consumers, from casual morning coffee addicts to health nuts to people who walked 30 minutes to meet a friend here and just really want a greasy sandwich. Most vegan spots have a trendy air of pretension, but Bloomer's just feels like a restaurant. I had the pulled jack sandwich, something of a play on pulled pork, and it was fantastic. And fantastically gigantic. I was initially a bit disappointed that the sandwiches here don't come with chips, but after eating about half of one, I was in pain. Having never tried jackfruit as a protein substitute before, I was a bit apprehensive about how it would taste, but it ended up being just like all other things when smothered in barbecue sauce: effing delicious. Pulled pork has never piqued my interest, but I would walk 30 minutes every day for this sandwich. Also sampled: the poutine (great fries, great gravy, meh cheese substitute), maple walnut donut (oh god so good), elderberry hibiscus iced tea (tasty but super sweet). Service was very polite and efficient, but food itself took a while to come out. I really like this neighborhood - it reminds me of Connecticut Street in my dear Buffalo. I would absolutely return here! read more

I like the atmosphere of the restaurant, it's a pretty cozy place to hang out and have a coffee. They have vegan donuts and treats which I always tend to gravitate towards. I've ordered a cake from them a few times and it's always been delightful. I would recommend this place if you're in the area read more

I LOVE this place. Excuse my excitement as I explain why this place is so awesome. This little hidden gem close to Ossington is to die for. I promise you. Everything on the menus is vegan, fresh and made with love. The salads are packed with so much goodness and flavour. It's mouth watering. I wish I could eat this clean every day. Definitely my favourite spot to grab a quick bit that fills me up and also makes me feel good. I ordered the soup of the day and pulled jackfruit. read more

It would be nice if I could review their food, but I can't and I'll tell you why. They pretty much ignored me on two separate occassions when I asked about accessibility. I had to literally keep asking for information on IG and Twitter. This last time it took over FOUR days and repeated questions to get a simple answer while they retweeted other people. It should not be this hard to get a business to tell you the information that you requested. By having me ask repeatedly, they made me feel like I was being a hassle. This is NO way to run a business and I'll never go there, ever. I'll happily go to other places that are accomodating and helpful both online and offline. BTW, their bathrooms are not fully wheelchair accessible. There are no grab bars and the space is likely too small for motorized mobility equipment to turn (i.e., power chair or scooter). read more

Finally tried the famous rose pistcho donut via The cold pressery in mississauga. You guys don't disappointed!!! It's not just the flavour it's the yummy ohey goey dough .....so fresh and thick. read more

OMG I had to review right away. Like others, I didn't realise this was a vegan/gf bakery until I read previous comments. Firstly it was immaculately clean - unlike other bakeries that have flies swarming over the food. There were ingredients listed in front of everything, which is basically my dream - as a person with peanut and fish allergies. I was excited just about the listed ingredients alone - most places I have to ask, the server seems inconvenienced, and they often just tell me that I shouldn't eat anything. The server/cashier (who was a total babe by the way) made a recommendation of the lemon donut. It was hands down the BEST donut I have ever eaten. Super fresh, nice and soft but also chewy. The glaze was perfectly done - not too sweet or too tangy. It was like pillowy lemony goodness. Yuuuuum. I will be back for sure!! read more

I can't say enough good stuff about this place. I've visited a half dozen times in the last couple of months, and each time I've come away extremely happy. The food's consistently been great, the two people who run the shop are kind and personable, and I've been very impressed both by the restaurant's dedication to ensuring that they serve only animal-free foods and by their openness about their ingredients and sourcing. I've tried a bunch of stuff on the menu: the roasted cauliflower soup, the bagel and cream cheese, the reuben, the club sandwich, the portobello-kimchi burger, the butter tart, and a bunch of other little baked goods and treats. I've not found a dud in the bunch. The portobello-kimchi burger is absolutely phenomenal--perhaps the best sandwich in all of Toronto. The bagel is certainly the best bagel in the city. And the butter tart (which I tried today for the first time) knocked my socks off with just how tender and decadent and gooey it was. I've only had one less-than-ideal eating moment at Bloomer's. I've gotten the club sandwich a number of times, and I've generally loved it. But the most recent time I ordered it, I found the tempeh to be a bit too hard and dry. The texture would've worked well if the slices were a bit thinner, but because the pieces were quite thick I found them a bit too difficult to bite through. This is a small complaint, though, and I am mentioning it mostly to emphasize just how fantastic my experiences have generally been. I've heard rumblings that Bloomer's will be opening later and eventually (hopefully!) staying open as a bar into the late night. That would be a huge, huge win for Toronto's vegan community. If you've not checked out Bloomer's, you should make a point of giving it a shot. You won't be disappointed. read more

Very cute bakery. It was filled with people and the baked goods and dinner items looked great. I got the zuchinni chocolate chip muffin which is actually delicious! Definitely a great week day place to hang out and enjoy some good food. read more

I've been travelling a lot lately and in the time I was away having fun and eating lots of great food, Bloomers opened and I was really looking forward to coming home and visiting this (still) new vegan cafe and bakery in Bloorcourt. So finally,I got to visit them today. First impressions are: I love the wide open space, that there are multiple options for seating (booths, tables, high tables, etc). They've got free wifi (I didn't look for power outlets this time). Service was really nice and friendly. And I felt pretty comfortable just hanging out with my coffee for a bit Today I saw a couple of different kinds of donuts, fluffy coconut donut holes, chocolate chip cookies, butter tarts, blueberry tarts, BAGELS, and a donut Bread pudding, and probably more, but I was especially drawn to the bagels, as I haven't seen bagels around any of the fine vegan bakeries we have in our city AND I happen to really like bagels (and usually end up making them myself). as an added bonus they had tofutti cream cheese available. They've got a variety of kombuchas, teas, blue sky soda, and assorted bottled fruit juices, in addition to fancy (and more regular) coffee options. I hear there is a menu extension coming in September with sandwiches and the like coming soon, so I'm pretty excited to check that out too when it appears. I liked it here, I would (and will) be back again soon. Accessibility-wise: Today the door was wide open (otherwise it's not powered), but there is a bit of a quarter step to get in. And in a wonderful departure from the usual Toronto bathroom in the basement style the restroom is on the main floor. And regarding one of the other reviews... it seems a little (no, it seems a lot) ridiculous to complain about the lack of dairy products at a vegan cafe. read more

I heart Bloomer's! I love the space, the vibe and the delicious vegan treats. There is a great selection of gluten free items (I especially love the banana date or zucchini choc chip muffins) and an expanding menu to include lunch! I went last week with my boyfriend and we both enjoyed an incredible potato, celery & garlic soup. My gluten-consuming boyfriend LOVED his donut, fresh out of the oven and I was really pleased with one of the aforementioned muffins. They've got a lovely selection of teas from Herbal Infusions (as well as coffee and kombucha) and it's a great place to chill and get work done with free wifi and comfy booths. Really excited that they've just added gluten free bread to the menu and can't wait to have one of their new sandwiches!! It's a stellar addition to the neighborhood, and Alex & Kelly couldn't be more awesome humans. read more

Excellent spot. I generally go for either the seitan reuben or the tofu BLT, both very tasty. The pulled jack is also great, although a bit intense so I got slightly tired of it after a few times. Also get the french fries, they are thin, crispy, flavorful, delicious. The muffins here are truly amazing. Some of the best muffins I've ever had, vegan or not. Although, they are more of the moist cakey variety as opposed to those muffins with a huge top that have a texture similar to banana bread. The vegan carrot cake needs some work, sadly. I'm not a huge fan of their vegan cream cheese frosting. The butter tarts are tasty, but definitely not as good as the original non-vegan version. In particular, the filling is a bit too runny. I found the service is a bit slow at times, perhaps simply because it gets really busy. read more

I am so happy I found Bloomer's and it is so close (too close?) to home. The owners and staff are fabulously lovely and the food is to die for. The first thing I tried was their Doughnut Breadpudding with Salted Caramel Sauce. OMG. I then promptly ordered a whole one to bring to a family gathering, it was SO good. I'm really looking forward to the menu extension coming next month :) read more

Met a business contact at this place for coffee. It was a midday meet but strangely this place was very busy. Can't really comment on anything beyond the coffee...it was decent. read more

Ordered delivery from hurrier to try out this restaurant for the first time. And while the delivery was exactly on time, the food was sadly not great. I really wanted to love this place and have a new vegetarian spot to order from, but I'll never order again. I got a salad, French fries and the batteries tempeh. The salad was strangely already mixed with the dressing which made all the leaves entirely wilted, wet and lukewarm. I get take out salads all the time and normally the dressing is kept separate for this reason. The fries are overcooked, totally cold. The tempeh is alright, also cold but not bad in terms of texture. I still tipped as always, but apart from the tempeh, nothing is edible. read more

Bloomer's - Here is my salad, totally wet, warm and mushed - Bakeries Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

I would say 3.5 But I have to lean on the 3 side for this one. I went here to get take out for my coworker and I. Ordered two veggie salads. The Good: 1. Ambience. It's a very cool spot with awesome decor. 2. Taste. The salad I had was very good. The Bad: 1. Slow. I've never waited so long for salad in my life. It was dead in there, and it took 30 minutes for them to make 2 salads. That is a key way to ensure I never come back. 2. Price. It's pretty expensive for a salad that just had veggies in it. My salad was $13 plus tax (and tip that I should not have gave) Recommendation: it's a pretty solid place with good salads, but if you're in a hurry or on a budget - skip it. read more

Things I like: Almond milk lattes, the muffins and the beet burger. Things I am not crazy about: the rocky tables, the uncomfortable vintage chairs, the way the bagels are hidden from the world and the music. I will comeback for a crazy giant doughnut but I will get it to go. It's really not inviting there. Warning: don't get the Ceasar salad it's so oily. read more

I wasn't impessed with this place. From the second i walked in, I felt pretty unwelcome. No one greets you, and they didn't even bother to place some water on the table or ask if I wanted a drink. I had the seitan+black bean burger. The most advertised item on their Instagram, but it wasn't even visible on their menu so I had to ask for it. When I went up to pay, it took a pretty long time for them to notice me and it came out to 18 bucks for a burger with a side of fries. I don't think I've ever paid that much for a veggie burger.. ever. I don't think i'll be going back. read more

Great portions and food! I got an "other salad" with tofu and it was amazing. The server also made me a great oat milk chai latte. Definitely coming back to try their muffins and donuts. read more

I came in without realising I was in a vegan establishment, sat down and was shocked at the pretentiousness and smug people surrounding me. I'll be honest, all I wanted was a cheeseburger because hell, we only live once and if I wanted to eat bird food I'd just self identify as a budgie and do that. I had the grilled cheese which was unidentifiable and tasted like the multivitamins I eat. I kept running out of water to help swallow the food and I made sure not to flush the toilet after I threw up in it incase one of these self entitled people surrounding me wanted to collect it and feed their starving and tormented pet "leftovers". I went up the street to McDonald's and got my cheeseburger but who am I kidding, that had just as much actual meat or dairy product in it as the food at the restaurant that I had just left. I decided to bring a few bags of McDonald's back down and all of the smug, "complex" individuals inside quickly devoured their latest vegan meal. read more

I have never been a big donut fan, but bloomers donuts make me reconsider. The blueberry and pistachio rose ones are amazing - better than their conventional counterparts. Light, fluffy and full of flavour - I keep craving them. My next try will be the boston creme one, which I hear great things about (I'm excited!). read more

Solid meal here with my veg sister! We shared the wakame bowl and the the jackfruit sandwich. The sandwich really did have a familar zest to it, like it was a pulled pork sammy. Enjoyable! The wakame bowl was super fresh as well, and I liked the bite from the sauerkraut. Fun for both the omnivore and those on a plant-based diet. The place was not packed on a Sunday night, but comfortable. Wine in water glasses help make this a nice and casual spot, that is healthy but also lets you indulge. read more

My friends and I ordered four donuts.. Mocha, blueberry, Boston cream and rose pistachio. Great textures and unique, long lingering flavour profile. I did not enjoy the rose pistachio but do thing it is a must have! You won't find that flavour anywhere else. The service was nothing spectacular... Or very friendly but i wasn't offended by it either. I think they were just very busy. read more

Bloomer's - Bakeries Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Really lovely vegan food cafe. The donuts are delicious, and the bagels are amazing! I've had several items now, from the wakame bowl, to soups, to sandwiches, and the poutine. NOT ever did even one dish disappoint. I've yet to make it in for their specials (which you can see on instagram), but I've made many attempts and each time the items sold out. The soups change ever day, and come with a tasty piece of bread. HONESTLY --- I have no idea how they manage to make their bagels and bread so good. Please note, a lot of their baked goods sell out, like the donuts and bagels, so you might have to come back if you come at the end of the day. Pair the food with a Live kombucha drink or one of their many coffees/ciders and you are good to go. read more
