They also serve different types of Afternoon Tea. They also sell breads like Sour Dough ($12.00) and French Baguette ($4.50) for takeout. We ordered the following: 1. Nutella Croissant ($6.95). 2. Flat White (small $4.95). They charge the normal 13% HST, but there is an extra 3% resort fee! Both the croissant and coffee were good. The service was good. Some people make reservations for their favourite tables. They certainly make sure every is clean and chairs aligned. Four of us were sitting around a very small round table, so I put my camera case and bag on top of a neighbouring table (they were only 20% full). My wife told me they were staring at me. After I took it off and put them on the floor under my seat, they cleaned the table; must clean off any dirt I might have on my stuff! They have been open for 3 years. They allow photos using a phone but not a DSLR. They said they would charge $250 for me to take photos. One staff member recommended I speak to the owner. The owner was concerned that I take photos of his prices: this makes not sense since I can also do it with my phone! He finally allowed me to take photos of just the food, and he asked the staff to take it out for me onto a table! I was thankful! There is indoor and outdoor seating. There is free WiFi. The patisserie is wheelchair accessible. There is one gender-neutral washroom. There is free parking in the resort. There are two high chairs for little children. Review 2024-203

Road trip for an afternoon tea experience at Parisienne Patisserie & Bistro up in the beautiful…read moreFriday Harbour It is a cute French patisserie and bistro with freshly made loaf bread, croissants, mini cakes and all sorts of baked goods. Full Tea for 2 ($65) includes: Tea, savory mini sandwiches, assorted sweets, whipped cream, assorted fruits. ** They didn't have mini sandwiches, but we got to choose a hot pressed sandwich from the bakery display, and they sliced it for us ^^ I'd also recommend: * Lychee Green Tea (teapot) * Roast Beef Mushroom Melt * Brie, Arugula, Prosciutto Be sure to make a reservation via phone for afternoon tea experience. Good for small groups of 2-3 people :) Limited indoor seating, outdoor patio also available. I personally think the afternoon tea experience is still very new, still need to work out some kinks. Overall, food was delicious, and my family had a lovely time together :)

Just next time I would see the cost of adding another layer of meat. The service was quick and the dining room had lots of tables. All in all a great spot for Italian fast food and groceries.

Caldense bakery is our go to chain for baked goods in Vaughan. When we found out that there was one…read morein Bradford on our road trip, we decided to make a stop. Our go to order is the tiramisu chocolate cups and flan cakes. We recently dropped by this location and it was much more spacious, very welcoming and had space for dine in as well. Not sure if the ingredients have recently changed but we noticed that there was a significant citrusy taste to the tiramisu cups which was really off-putting. I couldn't even finish the dessert because I was unsure if the tiramisu went bad or if there was something new in the ingredients. Furthermore, the service could be better improved. Each time the server was taking a new order, they'd have to go to through the kitchen doors and get a box (why couldn't the boxes be by the desserts?). There are also no labels on the desserts which causes a lot of slowness as people in line inquire about each dessert and the ingredients in them. This causes significant build up in the line as we wait for each person to review each dessert. Not sure if I was just unlucky with this specific batch of desserts and the long line we waited in today but I will definitely try to go and order in advance and give the tiramisu cup another try.
