Everything in the display case looked delicious, but we decided on the lychee raspberry & rosewater pastry, the pistachio ganash tart and the pork & fennel sausage roll. The pistachio tart was fresh with a rich nutty flavor, though it took a little finesse to eat because the filling kept wanting to spill out. My favorite was the lychee raspberry & rosewater pastry. It was flaky, with a delicate sweetness from the fruits and a subtle floral note from the rosewater. You can really taste the dedication in these pastries. I'd recommend going early in the day as many of their items tend to sell out quick.

The aroma of fresh bakery items is mouth watering. It's not a large shop, but they have a good selection of bakery items. They consistently bring out fresh baked items through the day.

There's a little seating area for two in front of the store, but basically need to eat on the go. One of my go to spots when I visit Victoria. Highly recommend!

We tried the…read moretraditional Filipino sweet bread but with grated cheese on top, the ham and cheese pastry, and the Ube roll (looks like a flower). All three were yummy, but my favorite was the Filipino sweet bread with the cheese on top. It was sweet, savory, and buttery all at the same time - so good! They offered to warm it up, too, which is their suggestion before eating. It's run by a husband and wife who are really lovely people. We talked for a bit and their warmth and genuinely reflects what their business signs state: "Together we can 'bake' the world a better place." It's a small place so there are only a few seats, but that's okay for a quick bite and rest. Otherwise everyone gets it to go. We got there right at a good time because after our order, a TON of people came in. One lady even said, "This is the place." It's located in Victoria's Chinatown, right at the end of the literal Fan Tan Alley. Try it!

I got the a Peach & a Berry Tart. Both were on point top notch. For Victoria, I'm going to rank this a close second to Crust Bakery - see my review. Now there may be more out there in greater Victoria as I continue to explore, so do stay tuned.

I also got an iced vanilla matcha which was delish. We also ordered two danish style cheese pastry wheel things, my only criticism was the cheese was quite cook so it's more of a crunch pastry than a soft one with also a hint of mustard.

You can tell this place is run by people who care deeply about their craft. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in town. Highly recommend!

I also grabbed one of the savory danishes and an oatmeal cookie latte (yes, that's a thing, and yes, it sounded too good to skip). My order took a little while, but that made sense given how long the line was. I got my drink first, then the sandwich came out a few minutes later. The first bite was amazing. Super flavorful. The bread was soft and tasted fresh. I tried a few bites of my friend's vegan sandwich too, and honestly, it might've been even better than mine. How is vegan food this good?? I had the danish later at home and it was really good too. Can't wait to go back. I want to try the vegetarian sandwich next time and maybe pick up some of their cool merch.

We dropped in on a Sunday afternoon (around 1:30pm). They had 7 types of pies (both sweet and savoury) and even sell Parachute Ice Cream on site (apparently, they're sister restaurants). You can also buy their pies frozen along with soups - Chicken pot pie ($8.00) - mixed veggies, butter cream sauce and roasted B.C. chicken. They warmed up the pie for us which took a few minutes. The butter cream sauce wasn't mixed with the rest of the ingredients. Chicken was dry. Crust at the top was dry and not very flaky but the inside was better. Thought VPC was going to have better pies.
