Cute place? Yes. Desserts that look picture perfect? Yes. Great taste? Eh. It was average. I've yet to find the wow factor in terms of taste at Butter Baker. What made me come back each time was just how good everything "looked" so something must taste absolutely delicious! I'm still searching for that unfortunately. I've had their Yule Log for Christmas last year and was disappointed by just about everything. The size and the one-tone taste of the cake (thick chocolate buttercream with an extremely thin layer of cake so the only texture you're really getting is buttercream and you feel like you're only eating buttercream) was not worth the money or excitement. I came back again and gave their regular cakes a try - a slice of chocolate and matcha each. The chocolate was overly sweet and I could not finish it. The matcha was probably the best as it was not as sweet. However, there was just something missing in the flavour of the cakes. As a result, the cakes tasted very average in the end even though they sure look good. So seems like cakes are out of the question. I guess I have to try their danishes or cookies next. As a sister brand of Butter Avenue, I was really expecting more. read more

I love love love this place!! There's so many options to choose from, ranging from croissants, to cakes, to cookies, and even drinks! My favourite was especially the strawberry matcha Danish, which I definitely need to get again! I would highly recommend if you're wanting to try something new but not too crazy! read more

Butter Baker - Display of pastries! - Patisserie/Cake Shop Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

This is a very nice place! The soft serve was great! It was full of strawberry bursts of flavour! There is not seating area so it made it difficult to socialize and eat the ice cream! It was $6.50 after tax for soft serve, approx. and it was on par with other places around! I think what I loved most were the pastries were very interesting and looked delicious! I wished I tried a pastry instead but it was a hot day and the soft serve definitely did the trick! read more

The Gruyere Cheese Croissant was soooo tasty. I was eating it as I walked out and after two bites, I wanted turn back to get another one. The amount of cheese was just right, and the buttery flavour was beautifully done. Usually I am don't like eating any bread... but loved this croissant! read more

Butter Baker is a minuscule shop nestled between the mammoth size of its neighbours, Pablo and Chatime. If you have a poor sense of direction, you may want to use these two as landmarks. The interior design is clean and cute, with whites and yellows making up the main colour palette. There is a lack of square footage, however. As such, you won't be going here to dine-in. It's constructed for grab and go purchases, and I heavily recommend to go in small groups, as it seems impossible to fit more than 5-6 people in the shop. On the bright side, I love the use of potted plants to create an illusion of a larger, less congested space - a refreshing idea, I must say! My small crew of three came here at around 7pm on a Wednesday night. There was no shortage of pastries and cakes left. Therefore, if you're in a pinch for buying desserts for a party in the evening, I heavily recommend stopping here as you'll get great value for quantity, quality, and variety. We ordered a slice of matchamisu, the hybrid child of a green tea cake and tiramisu. Even though we ordered it in the evening, we were pleasantly surprised at how fresh it still tasted. It was moist, well-sized for sharing, and had a mellow green tea flavour that would appeal to diners who prefer bitter green tea notes and diners who prefer lighter ones. The matchamisu seems to be a fail-safe option. The bag you get for your purchases is large, durable and simple yet cute. Remember to avoid throwing it away and instead re-use it for future gift-giving! Overall, there are several ups and downs with Butter Baker as listed below, but it's definitely worth your attention when you're craving something sweet to go with your coffee or meal. Pros: - conveniently located near Eaton Centre and TTC stations - aesthetically appealing decor - unique hybrid flavours (eg. Strawberry Matcha Danish, Fig Vanilla Danish, Matchamisu, etc.) - high quality bag for each purchase - large variety and quantity available in the evenings Cons: - small space with no dine-in option - prices are on the more expensive side read more

Horrible customer service, staff was rude. Didn't accommodate. The ice cream was in a waffle cone, it broke right in the store. They gave so much attitude, and didn't replace the cone. Ignored me standing right at the front with a broken cone. Another customer walked in when I was there he had a broken cone and they happily replaced his free of charge. Only leaves me to feel the staff was racist. Why else was I ignored and I was polite. read more

Butter Baker is located near Dundas and Bay and is by the same owners who opened Butter Avenue. I dropped by Butter Baker to pick up some pastries on a Monday evening. Surprised by the vast selection of pastries, it took me a while to decide. I got an apple danish and a jasmine tea. Later that night, I returned to buy more pastries for my family. All were great and the croissants had a great consistency. Definitely want to try their cakes next time! read more

I've been eyeing this place which is across my usual yoga spot! The store is bright and clean, they even plant fresh herbs on site. We ordered lemon meringue croissant,triple chocolate croissant and 2 slices of cakes. The croissants are fresh and flaky, flavours are well balanced, so yummy! Cakes I recommend the Pumpkin Spice , because there is a tiny marzipan pumpkin on top will be back to try other products. Came back for more and got addicted to their messy bun and ice cream! read more

Butter Baker is so cute! It popped up one day out of nowhere and now I vow to visit it whenever I'm shopping at Eaton Centre. I love the beautiful white and pale wood combination of the café, and it gives off such chill vibes. The staff greeted me with all smiles and were very patient as I mulled over which dessert I should purchase. They have a selection of bread pastries and cake, and they're always baking new things in the kitchen. I tried most of their cakes, which are really pretty and tasty! Personally I like the fruity cakes more, like the Banana Caramel and the Blueberry Lemon. I've also tried their pastries, and their savory ones taste just like a delicious meal. I'm really looking forward to trying out the entire menu soon. I was offered free coffee a few times when I went (I assume it's for a promotion?) and if you do get it I really recommend the dark roast one. Of course I'm not a coffee snob and I dump creamer and sugar into my coffee but I like this one more than the light roast. Basically I am a BIG FAN of the aesthetic of Butter Baker and the food so I'll definitely be back! read more

The place was clean. Lots of dessert options: i ordered the butterscotch & birthday cake cookies, the walnut croissant & mini donuts. The prices are okay, the place is quite small but well lit and clean. Theres no table service and no table but theres a few benches where you can seat. My only issue was the fact that the employee had an attitude other than that i have nothing else to add. read more

I called this morning to ask if they have a ready made cake for a birthday that I can pick up and have a dedication done on it and the guy on the phone with an asian accent said yes. come around 1:00 pm as I see cakes being prepared in the kitchen he said. I showed up at this bakeshop on Dundas and Bay and was told they don't do piping words on the cake. I paid for the pistachio vanilla cake as I didn't have any other alternatives and I only snuck out from work so now my girlfriend is so mad at me for not getting the cake right. To appease her I now have to find another bake shop in the city to do the dedication on the cake. That guy who provided me the wrong information on the phone is a twat read more

Super cute and small bakery located on dundas. I am a super fan of butter avenue macarons so it was a no brainer to come and try their baked goods. Very easy to walk to if you're coming from Eatons.. but do keep an eye out for the name since the location itself is very small and can easily miss. Once you walk in, you get a swift of smell that is a combination of butter, sugar and other yumminess. The last couple times I've been here i ordered their crossiant and their cakes. Croissant is really really good. Flaky and buttery, and comes with different flavours. We've tried the cheddar pork belly and the gruyere swiss cheese (delicious and our FAV) and also tried their chocolate crossiant and gingerbread crossiant (during their holiday season). SO flaky and buttery and delicious. Only down side is that it is on the smaller side and the price is pretty steep for like a mini crossiant. Cakes were also very good and flavours are very asian inspired (similar to butter avenue) Will definitely be returning and trying their drinks next time! read more

After this recent visit over the holidays, I can say now I am a fan! I recall visiting this bakery cafe in the past but never tried anything. My impression was fine..It was cute and had a lot of different pastries, desserts and beverages. During my last visit, I ordered the hojicha latte with oat milk and also tried the matcha white chocolate cookie. The cookie is out of this world... Absolutely delicious and I would have no regrets if I had a second one! Sadly I only got one and I do not live too close to downtown Toronto. The thought of Butter Baker gets me excited to visit DT lol..Truth! Let's talk about the hojicha latte, so hojicha is roasted matcha. The drink was bolder, richer and very flavourful. I opted for no sugar so at first sip, I got a hit of the yummy roasted green tea flavour. The milk alternative was an additional cost which is quite common and I am glad they had oat milk as I find that still not a lot of cafes have this particular alternative. If you like intense flavour and want to boost your antioxidants, this is highly recommended. In regards to the cafe itself and additional notes, there are a variety of cookies, pastries and cakes to choose from (slices and whole cakes). If you fancy a cold treat, try their soft serve as I have heard and also saw that it was a popular item for the customers that made a visit. Looking forward to my next visit for that cookie...! read more

Mediocre food, absolutely the worst customer service ever. From "actually, we don't have salmon" after receiving three brunch orders at noon on Sunday, to coming back after 20-30 minutes (and substitute orders placed in the meantime) to say that they did run to the store and purchased more smoked salmon ... then serving two orders 15 minutes apart, leaving me to wait for another half an hour for my order. When we asked to speak to the manager, we were told that she would come after we finish eating ... it never happened, they bid us farewell on the way out. Since this was undeniably the worst brunch experience each of us had, we requested again to meet the manager. Long story short, instead of a profound apology we heard a story that they actually had enough salmon but had to run it through warm water in order to defrost it, hence delay. Left us astounded that everything we had to say has not being heard and/or understood, that this supervisor and her team had absolutely no idea about the importance of proper communication and adequate customer service. I'd strongly suggest choosing another of the many fine brunch places in Toronto! read more

Pros: Very unique baked items Everything naked fresh daily Cons: Pricey Standing area only If you're a fan of baked goods, you should definitely try Butter Baker out. Just be prepared to take it to go and spend a bit more than usual. I came upon this place while taking a look at Pablo next door. Butter Baker is a cute little bakery with it's own take on baked goods. There's a very warm feeling to the decor here. If you love cute things, you're going to love this place. They have some very unique items that I have never seen at other bakeries. I had trouble deciding what to get my wife here. Items are being baked throughout the day. On a busy day, expect to have some wait times for items if they're out at the moment. I was told about 25-30 minutes for the croissants. I ended up settling on some cake pieces, a tart and a danish. As you can tell from my pics, the baked goods here are quite unique, and prepared very well. My wife loved every item I picked up. The Matchmisu cake could have had more match taste, but that's a nitpick if anything. There are only tables here, no chairs. It's strictly a standing area only place. From the size of the place and being downtown, that's not too surprising. Just be prepared to pay a little more than usual. You're looking at $3.50 plus for croissants, $5 plus for mostly everything else. It's definitely more pricier that what I'm used to. They do offer tax free if you order more than 6 items. All in all, Butter Baker should be tried by all who love baked goods. It will be hard to justify daily because of the prices, but for a nice little reward, it's a sure bet. read more

Located right beside Pablo, my friend and I wanted a quick, light snack. He mentioned that Butter Baker just recently opened so we decided to check it out. Upon entering, I found myself glaring at the many pastries offered and had a hard time choosing because honestly; I WANTED THEM ALL. I had no idea what to get and the employee pointed out to a few pastries that were popular. Apparently, all the pastries are made from quote "real/natural" ingredients and of course, butter in all of them. In addition, I found that Butter Baker also offers: cakes and beverages (such as coffee and smoothies). In the end, I decided to go with the Caramel Almond Brioche ($3.55) and my friend got the Griotte Cherry Danish ($4.55). (The employee was very kind and even picked the biggest Caramel Almond Brioche for me!!! ) CARAMEL ALMOND BRIOCHE: What had drawn me towards this brioche was the amount of almonds placed on top of it. When you take a bite, the crust of the brioche literally crunches and then you begin to sink into the moist bread interior. The contrast of texture really mends together and the flavour itself is REALLY almondy but not really sweet. I personally didn't taste much of the caramel, but I did find the flavour to be really concentrated (caught me off guard) so if you're a big fan of almonds, I would recommend this. I personally found the texture to be more intriguing than the actual flavour of itself. GRIOTTE CHERRY DANISH: Okay, so I never EVER eat anything cherry flavoured. I have to emphasize that this was AMAZING.I literally wanted to steal this away from my friend. Everything about this danish was perfect. The breading of the danish complimented extremely well with the cherry in the middle. I was expecting for the cherry jam-like substance to over power the entire danish, but it was very light and sweet. The pastry to cherry ratio was excellent and everything balanced out. (I WILL COME BACK FOR U) Overall, you can tell and taste that the pastries here are fresh. I will definitely come back for the cherry danish and I highly recommend it (if you're a cherry hater, give this a try). read more

Super excited when I saw this bakery shop pop up in the streets of Toronto. I think they had a grand opening date a few weeks ago? but it was still opened the the public prior to that.. just the times I've gone around 830p they were already closed :( Finally got the chance to try this place! It's a super cute minimal bake shop but being located in Toronto, the shops are generally a lot smaller. There aren't any seating spaces so it's a pick up to go kinda shop. There were so many things I wanted to try as they all looked so good but I picked up a strawberry matcha danish and a walnut croissant. I didn't get a chance to take a picture of the individual pastry because I was in a rush to go to the next destination so I got it boxed. Both the pastries I got weren't too sweet (which is something I liked). The danish didn't have much of a matcha taste to it though but then again, I was walking around with the box in the cold streets of Toronto for a while so it wasn't as fresh and it got slightly hard. I liked the walnut croissant. Only certain parts where the icing was on added some sweetness to it but it wasn't overwhelming sweet. The portions of each items were a good size. Each item ranged from $5-9. Most expensive thing I saw was for a slice cake. I would come back to try the other pastries!~ read more

Stopped by Butter Baker, as I was looking for a small treat to give to a co-worker for her birthday who liked birthday-flavoured desserts. For a rainy weekday night, they had a pretty good selection of stuff to choose from after 6 PM, so that was a pleasant surprise. I also tried the Birthday cookie myself. It was all right, a bit crunchy and too sweet, if that's possible. I thought it would be more chewy or softer like Daan Go Cake Lab or Craig's Cookies. read more

Airy new bakery with really cute pastries. I was walking by after dinner so I didn't have enough room in my stomach to try one of their heavier desserts. I opted for a regular croissant, which was good. They are also giving out free coffee, which I assume as a pet of their opening promotion. Update: I tried the lemon meringue croissant and it's amazing!! It's definitely pricey but delicious. The croissant had a lemon jam inside, and the top was a soft marshmallow like cream. read more

Every month, this shop features a different ice cream flavour. This is my first time ordering their ice cream, which costs roughly $7 (yup, a little pricey). Their August flavour is blueberry sorbet, mixed in with a swirl of vanilla. The cone looks like it came out of a comic book, they even added two tiny puffs on the side to create 'ears'. This combination of flavours is perfect, the vanilla offsets the sour or tarte taste of blueberry. My favourite is the cone, it must be store-made because it's fabulous! Crunchy, sweet, but not overwhelming. My colleague and I were very impressed with the ice cream at Butter Baker and would come back for their monthly flavours. I've tried their pastries before and they were hit or miss. Perhaps I could give them another chance next time? read more

A sister bakery of Butter Avenue on Queen W, Butter Baker is the newest addition to the Dundas W strip of Asian-inspired treats. I haven't tried their savoury items yet, only a lot of sweets. Their Kiwi Kiwi Danish is by far my favourite; a definite must-try for its uniqueness and balancing the sweetness of a pastry with the refreshing zest of kiwi minus the usual sourness of the fruit. The Baker's Latte is also unique for its tonka bean syrup (tastes like a light smoky caramel flavour) and vanilla. The regular butter croissants, almond croissants, and chocolate croissants (light, flaky, airy) are among the best I've tried compared to other bakery places. Other items I've tried: the Banana Goodness cake (too sweet for my liking, heavy on the caramel flavour), the Blueberry Lemon cake (zesty and refreshing, more lemon than blueberry flavour), and the lemon meringue croissant (the meringue is too heavy and thick). I find the cakes are quite dense in texture (in the cake sponge itself and the icing was rubbery) so it feels very filling after eating only one slice. If you want to order a whole cake (feeds 6-8 people depending on your appetite for sweets), they request 3 days advance notice. First reason for 3.5 stars is the lacklustre impression from the cakes. The space itself is clean, bright, and makes you want to stay there to enjoy your treats, but unfortunately they do not have any seating (second reason for my 3.5 star rating). The other concern is the narrowness of the shop. When exiting, you have to carefuly navigate through anyone in the line-up with your purchases, which is mainly a problem when you have a hot drink in one hand and a bag of baked goodies in the other. One final reason for 3.5 stars: the price point is pretty high for baked goods. Practically every item costs above $2.50; danishes are $4.55 each. Two items such as a danish and latte can easily cost $11.20. This place is probably something you want as a treat rather than a replacement for a Timmies run. read more

I was a little bit disappointed with no seating as I would have guess there would be at least couple of table with several seats. The space was really tight, making me feel a little claustrophobic. However, this place has no seating at all. It was really awkward when I tried to eat at one of the tables standing up. The decor was nicely done with different shades of white and different textures of different sections of the bakery. There are some live plants to brighten up the place which I really liked. The music was light jazz. There were not that many sweet options to choose from as many are savoury options. The servers were quite friendly. I ordered the salmon croissant with cream cheese and dill which was quite nice with flaky and buttery croissant base. The London fog was a little bite too sweet for my taste, but the flavour was pretty nice. It was quite a long wait for the barista to finish the drink though, I think it took more than 5 minutes as I was looking around for bit before my drink was ready. I hope Butter Baker would need to re-position their space to accomodate for some seatings or offer an unique item to attract the crowd fod breakfast, lunch or brunch. Otherwise, it maybe hard to complete with Japanese Pablo which is its next door neighbour or Uncle Tetsu which offers seating options. But, that''s just my opinions. read more

Butter baker is a great little bakery near Yonge and Dundas Square. Don't let the location fool you - this isn't a tourist trap. Butter Baker makes decadent cakes, delicious ice cream, and flaky pastries. It's definitely a bit on the price side. An ice cream will set you back around $7, and a slice of cake is about the same. An entire cake costs about $50, and serves about eight people, so that is a more economical option for a large group. The price is to be expected, given the location - rent is high and it's in a high foot traffic spot, so it's hard for the desserts to be cheaper. Now for the food. Everything was great! We had a slice of the Matchamisu (matcha + tiramisu) cake, which was excellent. It was rich, dense, and not overly sweet. It's a perfect matcha dessert. We had the chocolate cake as well. That one was fluffy and a bit lighter, making it very refreshing. To end off the dessert meal, we had the ice cream feature - a tiramisu/ice cream. It was cookie-covered l vanilla ice cream on a base of tiramisu. It was fantastic and perfectly balanced. The only downside with Butter Baker is the price, but given the quality and the location, it's hard to see how it could be cheaper, so it wouldn't be fair to judge the bakery based on that. 5/5 read more

I tried the butter tart, blueberry lemon cake and chocolate chip cookie. The tart was done nicely and tasted very good. The cake didn't suite my palate, it needed a punch of lemon. If it wasn't for the colour you don't know it's A berry. The cookies is on par with supermarkets. I found these two items overpriced for what you get. read more

butter baker has freshly made fresh fruit ice cream flavours that change every month, with one flavour featured for the month. this months the flavour was blueberry! I chose to get the swirl cone that had half blueberry and half vanilla $7 (including tax) the cone came very quickly and it had a large portion. the ice creaming was steaming with cold and looked her aesthetically pleasing. it has a cute meringue at the top and I ate it right away. the blueberry side was very refreshing and flavourful. it was very tasty and the vanilla was not to sweet . mixed together it was perfect- creamy and fresh. the cone for me was what really impressed me-the best cone I have ever had. The cone is light and crispy and has a buttery taste. it is similar to a cookie in cone shift and has a lot of flavour on its own. I will be coming again to try the different flavours every month read more

Butter Baker opened up right by my work and I knew I was in trouble. My colleagues and I have been several times and each experience has been enjoyable. I'm a fan of the Almond Croissant, it's not too sweet and it's super flaky. Delicious! My colleagues both like the triple chocolate croissant which also isn't very sweet. The coffee isn't anything special, I'd had down to the Starbucks after and get a blonde roast to go with my croissant. That's why they won't be getting 5 stars. Keep Eating, Angela read more

Butter Baker - Super Flaky Almond Croissant with Coffee. (Almond Croissant was delicious, coffee not so much) - Patisserie/Cake Shop Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

This is probably my go to croissant or bread store in Downtown Toronto. It just opens 3 weeks. The croissants are their signature items. They bake fruit danish, chocolate croissants, multigrain and assorted croissant on site. There also has loaf bread and cakes. I tried pumpkin spices cake and chocolate croissant. They are just perfectly baked and quite nice presentable. We bought them and enjoyed at home there's no dine in area. It looks clean in a small space. They also sell drip coffee and tea. Good to have a quick stop for a snack and coffee. Way to stop :) for on Dundas St.W. :) read more

I love this little bakery despite their prices. Not everything here is amazing but you'll find your favourites I hope. My personal recommendations are always the fruit danishes that they sell. They looks delicious, are delicious and photograph the best for all you instagram-ers. This time we bought the fig danish and their beignets. These things are way more akin to a Timbit with sugar and filling. The filling is the best part and my only gripe is that it doesn't really feel like a beignet in my opinion or at least not a classic one. The fig danish we kept to the next day and ate it. Did I mention their pastries keep at least the danishes do. My partner got their new ice cream. Strawberry with vanilla swirl. Taste and texture are spot on for what you would expect from good ice cream. It was smooth and light and he strawberry keeps its tartness as well as it's sweetness. My girlfriend thorough enjoyed it. Previously we got the strawberry matcha danish and the pear danish bob delicious. The Matchamisu cake there was good but lacked the bitter sweet taste of the matcha that we like. I would love to give this place 5 stars but I think it's because I never know or will likely come in when stuff come freshly out of the over. The price is also on the slightly high side with each beignet being $2. This place is like a good splurge for enjoyment and always a hard fight with you wallet to see how many you can buy before your wallet cries. read more

Pros: amazing pastries, aesthetically pleasing, helpful staff Cons: it's definitely a splurge Wow. Now this is how pastries are supposed to taste like. I went in to Butter Bakery not really knowing what to buy. Lucky for me, the staff was kind enough to recommend me some of their best sellers. I went with the strawberry matcha danish and the strawberry cream croissant. When he was packing up my order, I was surprised to see how much care he took to put the pastries in the bags. Maybe I'm just used to Chinatown style bakeries manhandling my steamed buns but wow this was a nice change of pace. Now for the taste. Strawberry matcha danish: This was the first one I ate. Let me tell you. After my first bite, I had to stop chewing for a moment to process how good it tasted. The pastry was buttery and flaky but still chewy. The matcha custard had slight bitter hints that went perfectly with the sweet and juicy strawberries. I was shook. Strawberry cream croissant: Can you tell that I like strawberries? Well I'm happy to say that this pastry did not disappoint me either. I thought that the croissant would be too hard on the edges since it looked really crispy but boy was I surprised. As soon as I took a bite, everything just melted. Same flaky texture as the danish but dare I say it, more buttery. The custard is the perfect sweetness and the strawberries just tied everything together. This has got the be the best bakery I have gone to in Toronto. Price wise, it is a little steep for a student budget but it is definitely a great treat. If you have a sweet tooth, do realize that their pastries are more subtlety sweet. Overall, wonderful bakery and I would definitely go back to try more of their wonderful creations. read more

Love their pastries! I always go for the matcha strawberry one, its perfect. On the other hand, their cakes are too sweet. I bought the pistachio raspberry cake and it tasted like sugar. Family could not finish it due to how sweet it is read more

Butter Baker is an adorable little shop filled with a great selection of pastries! They have such a cute aesthetic not to mention such polite and friendly staff. If I were a local, you'd probably catch me here every morning get my quick fix of sweets. But unfortunately, I was only visiting so I only had the chance to try two of their tarts (strawberry matcha + fig) which were both good but if I had to choose, I preferred their strawberry matcha over the fig. We also picked up an iced london fog which was great. I really enjoyed our experience here and I'll definitely be back the next time I'm in town. read more

Ordered a tiramisu cake, and a single slice of strawberry cake for delivery because you know...quarantine things, and I am blown AWAY!!! The tiramisu is so light and you can taste the quality in the ingredients. Seriously, I don't know what kind of cocoa powder was used but it was so delicious I couldn't get enough. The strawberry cake was also beyond amazing. Again, very light, but delicious strawberry flavour and vanilla cream. I only gave 4 stars instead of 5 because the cakes are a bit on the expensive side ($49.50 for tiramisu serves 6-8) and $6 for the slice of strawberry cake. The slice was quite small to be honest. HIGHLY recommend Butter Baker cakes!!! read more

If you love thick, heavy buttercream this isn't your cakery.

Had a pear tart which was tasty was not overly sweet but good. Grabbed a lemon blueberry cake as well. The cream with the blueberry was good but cake itself was quite dry.

This place has cute cakes and baked goods that are French style but has originality with the design and ingredients. I tried a seasonal item, "Dalgona Coffee Cake."

Such a cute bakery! My friends and I love the decor of this place, it looks super clean and they even have a wall of fresh herbs! They were just making the lemon meringue croissants so we got to see them torch them. The meringue was so light and airy it felt like eating a cloud. The croissant itself was really flaky and tasty. I feel like it's a really well balanced pastry in terms of taste and texture. Would definitely eat it again. My friend got a slice of one of the chocolate cakes and it was sooo good. It was light but also very chocolatey and rich at the same time. You definitely need half a glass of milk to drink with that cake. The staff are so nice and super friendly. Can't wait to come back and try their fruit tarts! FYI: there is no sitting space, so it's just grab and go. read more
