I really wasn't too sure what to make of this place, but I'm almost always willing to try. I'm glad I did. The mocca cruffin and the twice baked pistachio white chocolate croissant were delicious. The loaf of sourdough that I also got is one of the tops in my books. Flourist and Bread Culture in Vancouver are my other two faves. If you come through Courtnay, pay a visit. Smallish store, friendly staff. Prices are reasonable, and parking in the adjacent lot is available.

Apparently, Cakebread do a mean garlic loaf - with a whole bulb baked into the center. What is there not to love about that? Anyway, I didn't get to try it, so I can't review it - I just will dream about that instead. Rather, I tried out a chocolate brownie. I've been a little disappointed with brownies since I moved to the states, so I thought I would try out a Canadian version, to see if it could compare to the wonder of the brownies sold in London's Borough Market. Well, it didn't - but it was incredibly luscious. Chocolate icing on top and a surprise of biscuit (cookie) threaded through the brownie itself. I do like a bit of texture when I am chowing down. One brownie was probably a bit too rich for one person - but, I was alone - and I do hate seeing food go to waste. It's called taking one for the team, ok?

Cakebread had just what we were looking for. I wish we had more opportunities to come back as they also had a delicious looking selection of baked goods. Highly recommend the turkey croissant sandwich or the prosciutto sandwich on baguette. Both came with a delicious roasted pepper tapenade and carmelozed onion spread.

An enchanting little restaurant is apparently known for its sandwiches and deserts. Interesting and home cabin style décor, we received a warm welcome when we arrived and were taken to our table. A couple of minutes after being seated. We waited no time for our server to take our order and had hot coffee within a minute or two. The service was friendly and efficient. The food didn't take long and was superb! The breakfast sandwich was excellent. The bread was made in house, the bacon was divine, and the home-made blueberry muffin was fresh and warm. It was a great experience and live in the Fraser Valley, we have since learned there is a Yellow Deli in Chilliwack.
