Small and shared with a McDonald's and many other businesses. CLOSED MONDAYS. Staff were nice. Not a ton of selection.. I do wish that they had a bread slicer for their loaves. So far, I've tried a chocolate croissant and a plain one. Best served warm, I recommend. I also had a cranberry orange scone and a blueberry scone. I am a sucker for those things. The last time I went, I got the last two. The pastries in the case all looked sinful but delicious. Cakes too. I'm excited to have an occasion to buy a French baguette. Go early in the day to get the good stuff!

My husband and I picked up some pastries here recently and overall I thought they were ok, but I…read morewas not wowed. Oui 8 Bakery recently opened in the same strip mall as The Burbs. It's rather small and doesn't have too much selection. We got 2 pecan tarts ($2.50 each) and an almond croissant ($2.60). The almond croissant was ok. It only had a thin layer of ground almond paste in it. It tasted buttery and was flakey, and tasted better than almond croissants at grocery stores like Loblaws, but I expected more from a small bakery. The pecan tarts were ok. They had little pieces of candied fruits in it, like the stuff in fruitcake. I am not a fan of fruitcake nor am I a fan of candied fruits. If you like the aforementioned items, then perhaps you will like their little twist on pecan tarts. However, if you are not a fan like me, then you might want to pass. They had date squares (another thing I don't like), scones, macarons, and some other items. Not all items have prices listed. I may return to try some macarons, especially if they are only $1 each like a previous reviewer mentioned (the price was not listed in the store). Service was nice and friendly. There are 2 bistro tables for 2 inside the bakery, but it's mostly for takeout. Lots of free parking in the strip mall parking lot.

I may try again just to see how consistent they are, but unfortunately I'm not in a huge rush to do so.

The chicken pesto panini was also cold and served with turkey lunch meat, as they were out of chicken. The guy working the grill seemed to have no idea what the components were for what we ordered. We were asked multiple times what kind of cheesecake we had purchased. Apparently the signs do not correctly indicate the cheesecake it was in front of. And the clerk said the carrot cake and chocolate chip cookies were old stock from the previous eatery. The staff seemed clueless. I was embarrassed for them, but annoyed at the lack of service. Will not be going back.

Although there were freezers with items for sale, the more desirable, fresh offerings didn't seem plentiful. The woman behind the register was nice. I bought and took home 2 muffins. They were very dense and crumbly. Not very tasty. I could not eat either of them beyond a bite each. And this place isnt cheap. Maybe I am unsure of what kind of bakery this is. Uber healthy? I would try again here but would skip the muffins.

I have to write a new review, as my last one is 6 months old, and I have been back 2 more times!!…read moreBesides, it's been too long since I wrote that review for me to update it. I neglected to say in my previous review, that the restaurant is vegan, as well as gluten free and Kosher. They also have a shop in Westboro, which is how I got to know of them, as it's close to where I usually work, but with COVID restrictions and working from home, I have been told they are still open there too (thanks Jennifer P!). I am really glad they have one in Kanata. Their pastries and cakes and cookies really are all delicious, and high calorie. Ok, they're decadent! I really can't wait till shut down orders are done, so that I can meet my knitting friends for a nosh and a coffee there. One day; one day... Meanwhile, this review is for today's visit. We just picked up coffee, which was ok. I have to admit that I had forgotten that they are vegan, which means they don't serve cow's milk, and they don't bake with it either. For my latte, I had a choice of oat, soy, or I believe coconut. I chose coconut because I don't like the other 2 choices. If I remember correctly, last time we were here, I think I took my black coffee home with me, and put milk in it; sacreligious, I know! Today, I did the same, as it turns out I am not fond of coconut 'milk' either. Oh well! Live and learn. Bravo, and good luck to Strawberry Blond.

I've only tried the regular meat pies here ($2.50 taxes included), and those were pretty good. The filling had a lot of meat, and the dough was thin and crispy (but not overly crispy). Spices were standard and similar to the majority of meat pie places across Ottawa. I liked that the meat wasn't too salty nor too oily. I also liked that they really heated it up - when I opened up the meat pie to take a picture for y'all, steam was literally rising from the meat. Staff were nice, but they did not wear gloves. However, we didn't order cheese or vegetables on our pies so there was minimal handling of the food. Not sure if they'd wear gloves if handling the food more. The place has 3 tables that seat 2 people each. They also sell drinks (non-alcoholic). It's in a strip mall, so lots of free parking.
