Note that this Cobs Bread hot items tend to sell out quite fast. I came here about two hours before closing and their shelves are more than half empty. When you walk in, you smell a gust of soft yeast + sweet pastry sugar smell. It smells so good. Everything is made fresh in house on the day. I got a dessert pastry bread to go. I forgot what that item was called. But for $7.80 or something, it was definitely worth it. It was very tasty. Portion size was good and was enough or two people to share. I don't think you can go wrong with anything you get at Cobs Bread. read more

Stopped in here again tonight and realized that they have Marble Rye (again?). I was sure they stopped making that. Regardless, it's there on Fridays and Tuesdays, and if people go and buy it I'm sure they will keep making it. So good. read more

Mmmm, I love the smell of fresh bread! ...which is exactly what you will smell when you step foot into this store! I came here on a rainy weekday morning and was greeted by a showcase of freshly baked pastries and bread along with a happy and gleeful man who welcomed me in! The first pastry that caught my attention was the cinnamon bun. It looked sweet and warm...and I could hear him calling my name and whispering eat me. So I did and it was probably THE BEST cinnamon roll I've had. Sweet, moist, cinammon-y...with a warm icing that tasted oh-so-perfect with the bun...oh gosh nobody can pass this up! My sister ordered some fresh artisan bread and it was very soft and fresh! Buy any loaf of bread and they will be happy to slice it up for you with their handy dandy machine. read more

If you are a coffee and pastry person, I would suggest you visiting Cobs Bread. They have assorted pastries. Overall, the pastries are nothing special or noteworthy other than they were different flavors. If you are within the area, check them out. read more

So this is the new Cob's Bread opened on Aug 18th last week. I passed by here prior to opening and sampled some of their pastry. I fell in love with their scones and normally I don't like scones because of dry texture. But Cob's Bread is different. It is bit expensive; however, their baked goods are amazing. I think Spinach Croissant was around $3 and Blueberry Scone was $1.80 I can't remember. Their Blueberry Scones are soft and sweet. Cinnamon Scone is really good too. It's crispy, sweet and soft. I love the crumbs on top of it. Service was fast and staff were friendly. read more

I came here in search of hot cross buns from my childhood in NZ, but unfortunately they dont make those in the autumn months. I consoled myself with the apricot bread, which I had learned from fellow yelpers that there was no sugar added to it. They sliced it up for me and the server also gave me tips on toasting it and dabbing butter on to make it extra amazing. The bread was amazing just munching it directly (okay, so I wasn't patient enough to wait for access to a toaster), crispy shell with a ton of fruit on the inside, and just enough dough to hold it all together. Can't wait to grab another roll next time I'm in town! read more

I am not one to pass by a bakery without scoping it out, so scope Cobs out we did, and then ended up returning two or three times during our five days in Vancouver. Like you do. With the prices (especially if you throw in the US dollar exchange rate), you can afford to try one of everything. We didn't quite do that, but we did okay. I loved the apricot roll--loaded with raisins and bits of dried apricot, almost like a more delicious take on a fruit cake. Found out after eating several that they're made without any added sugar or oil. Nice. The real winner was the cinnamon roll. Tender, moist, cinnamon-y, not too sweet, perfect amount of frosting. On one of our return visits, they were out of the single rolls, so we went for the box of six. Upside: we just ate out all the middles and left the slightly less decadent outside edges untouched. Living the life of luxury! read more

Really strange experience. We went in, as we love baked goods and the store looked very inviting. Bought some "pull apart" bread that the male employee behind the counter highly recommended, some rolls, and some pastries. The pull-apart Bread tasted nice when you pulled on the top, but was not so great when you tried to eat the rest. Pastries were not good, but that is okay - generally a bread bakery is good at bread, and not also at being a bakery. The rolls we bought we enjoyed. We went in again the next day, and the same employee was there. He seemed grouchy...not sure why. He kept digressing into politics....it was so bizarro. We just wanted to give them business. He made us so uncomfortable, that we left after purchasing less than we had planned. Not sure what is "up" with this place! It really looks nice from the outside. Maybe this man was having a bad day. :( read more

HAVE AGAIN: Cinnamon rolls are delicious. Scones and apricot raisin bread are also delicious.

Cobs is a small no-nonsense bakery. I stopped in this morning and it smelled like heaven with a side of butter. I ordered a danish and got some bread for the week. Fresh and simple. This is a typical non artisan type bakery with reliable/consistent goods. Staff is always friendly and helpful. read more

OMG! This place has one of the BEST CINNAMON ROLLS I have ever tasted in my life! I went here part of my trip to Canada (before COVID). Would highly suggest and come back bedtime I go to Canada again! read more

Their cinnamon bun used to be big and square with lots of cinnamon. Now they make it as a danish shape instead which is flatter with less cinnamon. It does not look tempting at all (e.g. the ones from Safeway look better). Also, they had downsized their other products as well (e.g. scones). I did not know what happened but it was disappointing. read more

Small little place baking fresh and yummy breads of all kind. Smells so yummy. Scones, cinnamon rolls, croissants of differently flavors, and etc. read more

The Robson outlet of this bakery chain was convenient to our hotel so I ended up stopping in 3 times while on vacation. I am an early riser so every morning before the bakery opened I would see them baking fresh bread and pastries. The first morning I purchased a pair of blueberry scones that were moist, but lacked the typical tasted of a scone. On subsequent visits I picked up mini foccacias that we shared for as a quick lunch. First time it was a cheese, herb and garlic and then a few days later a tomato, olive, mushroom. Each was undeniably fresh, but none had a lot of flavor. read more

Ordered a cinnamon bun -- it was huge that my husband and I opted to just share one. Creamy, soft, and warm -- I'd say that's the perfect cinnamon bun! Aside from the food, what I love best about this place is the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff. We walked in just to check out the pastries and randomly asked how do we get to the Vancouver Lookout. The staff proceeded to draw out a map for us, called out landmarks we should be checking out, even her estimated minutes of how long of a walk it'll take us to get there, and some other suggestions of spots to check out! I always have a soft spot for establishments who goes above and beyond for their patrons -- Cobs gets 5 star for food and services from me! :) read more

Delicious scones and breads! Stopped by on a whim while walking around the area to celebrate Canada Day. The bakery smelled amazing and you can tell the products are fresh. The place wasn't too busy and we were assisted within minutes. The employees are very patient for first-timers not sure of what they want, and are very helpful. The scones are moist and the fruit breads are soft and packed with fruit. Wish I had a similar bakery back home! read more

The scones are great and the whole wheat loaf is the best I've ever tried. The staff is kind and supportive and prices are fair. The best place in town to buy some bread. read more

I love Cobs bread and I have been a regular customer for years. One thing I don't understand though is why they don't use gloves or tongs when they touch food. Seems self explanatory for a bakery/restaurant, right?? Apparently not at COBS! I went to the Robson location to buy a pastry and the female employee literally used her bare HANDS to touch the pastry before handing it to me. What the heck!!!!!!!! Why would you think it's safe or even okay to use your hands to touch the food you are serving your customers. Needless to say, I ended up not taking the pastry because it's flu season and I don't want someone else's germs. INVEST IN SOME GLOVES COBS!!!!!!!!!!!! read more

First time here (as in any Cobs) so I went with a random; zero judgement, grabbed a loaf as a gift for friends, hoping to impress, after all I was showing up in a bike with a basket, to not have a loaf would have been tragic. The "Apricot etc" loaf. A masterpiece bound by its moist texture, refined by its dynamic slopes, romantic and complex, it quickly put a smile on everyone's face. One friend applied butter, another tried orange marmalade as an array of spreads were presented. From cream cheese to hummus, it wasn't until we tried it solo that we realized this more than just a loaf of bread. read more

Bread is great but the rewards program is absolutely horrible. When you earn an reward you just have 2 weeks to collect it otherwise it's gone. The previous point cards were much better without expiry date. We would cash them in when placing an large order. With the new system if you forget it's gone which is very dishonest. read more

Baked fresh everyday. We stopped in last night after closing and saw them bagging some stuff. We were told they donate to a woman's shelter. They have a small selection of breads, pastries, croissants, scones. Two types of hot cross buns. We asked whether it's cheaper to buy in packs, and we were told it's a better value to buy in a pack (4 or 6 depending on item). We love value :) Enjoyed the hot cross buns especially the orange cranberry ones. Flavorful without being sickeningly sweet. I did have to heat them up though. Room temperature ones were hard. Service was efficient. read more

Not sure what the hype is for this bakery. Came in and bought a lemon blueberry scone and an apricot roll. They were both pedestrian pastries- nothing special or noteworthy other than they were different flavors than "typical" Would give this a solid OK but I'm sure there are better options out there read more

Incredibly fresh...Great prices...AMAZING TASTE! Stopped here after having dinner at YOGI...What a wonderful lightly sweetened dessert to end our culinary evening! I had the Maple Roll...think cinnamon roll...with maple syrup instead of cinnamon goo...DELISH! The wife had a white chocolate raspberry scone with her coffee...wonderful stop! read more

We walked in here on a whim and absolutely LOVED their cream cheese cinnamon rolls and strawberry rhubarb scone! We actually came in twice within 2 hours since it was so good and we had to bring home some. Not sure why there are so many mediocre reviews, but we absoutely loved their cinnamon rolls and will definitely be back in the future! read more

Good flavor and price great variety of bread and very fresh however not all the products are good as the pumpkin bread

Cobs on Lonsdale on the North Shore is great, but pastry at this location is dry and flavorless.

Bought scones at beaches store 1 doz. Got home they were not baked so had to travel 25 miles to return them they offered a new batch that were ok. But feel they could have added a few extras or give me them for my trouble. Not good customer appreciation read more

I got four items at 845am and all were cool/cold from refrigeration probably from the night before. A little disappointing to go to a bakery in the morning and not get hot and fresh stuff. But it tasted alright and the prices were ok. Would just recommend trying to get the freshly made stuff. read more

Bought the traditional fruit hot cross buns, except there is no fruit in them, went back to ask where's the fruit, and was told that cobs idea of traditional is raisins and currents , overpriced for no fruit. Lost a customer, read more

I came here a few times during the holiday season for some fruit buns and basic cheese bread loafs to bring to parties with some cheese. Consistent with the other locations around town. Small store so it an get crowded quickly. Always good service and decent prices. read more

Cinnamon roll was yummy. Crusty bread great. Scone was just so-so. Seemed like they used canned blueberries. Otherwise great bakery.

I heard they have the beat cinnamon rolls in town. But I have to say I was quite disappointed when I first tried them. Not sure what it is so special. It was good but not the best. Maybe I'll try anything else and see. read more

Came back to try again. It always smells good from the outside. I dodged the bread this time and went for a scone and a cinnamon bun. The scone was decent; the cinnamon bun was small and flat and sad. The kids working there do their best, but it's definitely the McDonalds of bread. read more

What a scrumptious smelling place. Our family of four spent 2 days in Vancouver prior to our cruise and found this lovely bakery while touring the city. The kids really loved the cinnamon buns. Since we cannot find this bakery in our U.S. town it was quite a treat. However, the dude who waited on us began ranting about our president and inserting his political views into our short convo. I was so stunned I said nothing in response but have to wonder if there aren't any Cob's rules regarding this sort of conversation in the workplace. Since we said absolutely nothing in response how did he know if he offended us or not? His views were quite inflammatory and actually kept us from returning the next day even though the bakery goods were yummy. I did not see a name tag for him but he was short and thin and wears glasses. Try to avoid having any sort of convo with this dude. I downgraded my review stars because of this fellow's blathering. read more

The best, tastiest, moistest scones ever!! Cinnamon is to-die-for and the berry taste fresh and awesome. The bread is tasty. We bought several items walked down to Starbucks and got coffee, ate everything and then went back and bought more! Highly recommend. read more
