I used to absolutely love this place. The canolli's, tarts, fresh cakes and biscotti were some of the best I've tasted. If I was ever going to a barbeque or a party, and I didn't know what to bring, I would always stop by Le Palme and pick up a few canolli's. I knew they would be appreciated and devoured.
Unfortunately though, Le Palme was recently taken over by new owners, and things have changed significantly. The pastry shop is now a fully-fledged café.
The new breakfast/brunch menu runs all day, with pastries, cakes and coffee sold at night. The modest range of breakfast/brunch items now on offer is good, but not great, and a little too expensive at times. E.g. $8.50 for French toast.
The cakes and pastries are not of the same quality they once were, and the new menu is okay, but not great. With dozens of cafes already framing Majors Bay Rd, Le Palme should have stuck to what they were good at, and what the customers wanted- pastries and sweets. read more
