Baklava is yummy, the lady who served us patiently explained the sweetness & flavours since it was our first time buying these sweets. Can't say if it's better than other places because we haven't been to other bakeries yet, but for newbies... we're happy with the quality!

I'm pretty sure this is the second branch of La Brioche (the first being the one on Bank St at…read moreThornton in the Glebe). They sell lots of different pastries but specialize in Middle Eastern pastries. I love their Znoud El Sit, and I went on a Thursday and they had them! Some places only have this on the weekends. They are $2 each and are shorter but fatter than other places - more delicious creamy filling! The cream is a little clumpier and not as smooth, but I don't really mind. They have macarons for $1.50 each. I haven't tried them but they looked good. The bakery is really clean and well lit. Staff were nice. It's in a strip mall (right next door to Capital Buns Bakery). Lots of free parking.

I know Bubble tea might be their jam but it was early so I got a Latte and boy was that a good latte, Perfect!. My kids wanted sweets and I was surprised they carry Strawberry Blonde goods.

Looks like I'm first up, so I better make it count! So…read morehere's a brief history, I like sticky buns and I cannot lie, the other brothers can't deny, that Packenham had the best in the space, till the recipe ended up in Carleton place. Plagiarized raps out of the way, here's my review... We heard that CP general store had amazing sticky buns and were further intrigued when rumours circulated that they had the recipe from the OG Packenham General store. We made two attempts to drive the CP to get them but the staff who was there said that they didn't have them at the time we went. I called on a Saturday morning and asked if they could put some aside.... Not only did she put some aside, she was kind enough to remember us and put a bow and ribbon on this really nice gift box for my son. We got a few other things as well, they had cheese sticks, a couple of seltzer type drinks and the butter tarts. Lemme first talk about the butter tarts - they are unlike any other butter tart and I don't think I can get them from anywhere else now - they were so delicious and although sweet, the pack of 6 disappeared over two days. Now for the sticky buns: holy shit so good, you gotta get them! That's all I gotta say - just gooey and delectable! The staff - five star! The entrance is a shared entrance with a gift and antique store so overall a really nice experience. The Carleton Place General Store gets 5 stars from me.

Good variety of food and drink and they use fresh locally grown ingredients (grown in their front garden beds). Latte and coffee are a nice change from the mass corporate chain locations as they make it fresh to order. The salad was so fresh and tasty that I would eat more salad if they all tasted as good as this one. Pizzas look great and the apple crumble was warm and tasty. Looks like it's a local place to gather and they have a community hall attached where it looks like some bands play music and their is a dance floor. Quaint little cafe and "Neat" place to visit.

Pizza is amazing, great variety of drinks and service is friendly. Beautiful atmosphereread more
