Love getting the sandwiches here! They have such a variety of meats, breads, sandwiches toppings,…read moreand spreads to choose from. Sometimes it depends on who makes the sandwich for you but usually the workers load the sandwich pretty well with your choice of toppings. The store itself is pretty nice and has a lot of fresh ingredients. The prices are a little high but I would say it's because it's a higher end grocery store. Definitely a place you would come to get a couple of things, not your typical weekly groceries.

I love freshly baked bread -- The Brick Oven Bakery is my favourite place to visit when I'm in the…read moreBurlington area. My favourites are the sourdough bread and sandwich buns. Prices are very reasonable. The bread has a perfect texture and taste in every bite, whether eaten alone or with the wide selection of deli meats (love that they will do thinly sliced that melt in your mouth) and cheese. I'm also happy to see that they offer nitrite free chicken or turkey as well. I also tried the mini pizzas. They were ok for a quick bite. The staff are pleasant, and quickly ask if we need help. The deli counter can be a bit slow depending on who looks after you. The place is small and gets busy. Lunchtime is also busy when customers drop in for Italian hot food takeout. Overall, I recommend this bakery. Some of the regular customers recommended the hot meatball or chicken/veal sandwiches loaded with grilled veg so I'll probably try those next.

Italian deli or Subway sandwiches? The people have spoken! The Brick Oven Bakery still stands while…read moreonly the imprint of the Subway sign remains. I'm not sure if this was actually what caused the Subway to go out of business but I wouldn't be surprised. You're greeted with classic deli smell when you walk in. To the right is the bakery counter with desserts like cannolis and cookies. Since it was close to Thanksgiving, there were full sized pies available. I'm told that on the weekdays, that's a hot counter that has great lunch options. The back of the store has the deli counter that has a big selection of meats and cheeses. We went with salami and pastrami on this occasion. To the left of this counter are all the breads. Some are on racks while others are in baskets that you can grab with tongs. We grabbed some kaiser rolls here. The middle section of the store are grocery items. There were a lot of Italian specialties that and artisan goods available. There was flavoured risotto, herbed olive oil, and those big Italian cakes that come in a box for Christmas but was pumpkin flavoured for fall!

This is a long overdue review…read more.. Once I found out that they give cheese tours, I made it a compulsory event on my to do list. They host monthly Saturday cheese tours and it cost $7 per person. Remember to call or email in advance to reserve a spot. My boyfriend and I arrived ~10 mins earlier than the scheduled tour. The ladies in the cheese shop area were super nice and told us to start sampling the cheese whilst we wait for the other parties to arrive. This was the first time I heard and tasted quark. We were told by the staff that it can be used in place of yoghurt - eg. eat it straight up or add it to baking. For the tour, they will give you shoe/boot covers and a hair net. They shut down the production line whilst giving the tour, which makes sense for hygiene reasons. The production area was immaculate! The tour guide told us they clean all the equipments and production area at the end of each day after a batch of cheese is made. The tour was informative and our guide was happy to answer all our questions. Apparently ~4000 liters of milk makes 100kg worth of cheese. Out of all the different production stages/areas, we spent the longest in the impressive "cheese cave". There were so many wheels of cheese!!! Each wheel weighs ~10kg and the net worth of cheese in the aging room were in the millions. After the tour the different parties waited in line to buy cheese. The cheese are all vacuum sealed to prolong storage life. Out of the 6 types of cheese I bought, the truffle flavour was favourite. It had a strong truffle aroma with an underlying milky taste.

The staff is super friendly and I appreciate the loyalty cards for coffee and bread. The bakery itself is small but so quaint being in an old historical house. If you haven't tried With the Grain, you're missing out on a Guelph experience.

You must either carry their basket or push a cart around. Both are big and bulky and patrons end up running into each other or hitting one another in the very narrow aisles.

I understand that theft has been an issue, but when I show up at the cashier to pay for my purchases, I don't expect to treated with distain and scorned for having no basket.
