Right around the corner from our Airbnb, I stopped by to grab a quick bite before embarking on sightseeing adventures. Cortado was tasty, not burnt, lacking a bit of sweetness; overall a smooth drink. Parmesan and leek pastry was flavorful, appeared freshly baked, and not too oily from butter leakage. The rice ball (looked like an oversized croquette) was delicious when doused with marinara. Sausage was dense, not dry, and paired well with the rice ball. read more

Neat little place to check out had bakery desserts and hot table. Also had frozen food in the fridge. There also table and bar seating for those that want to eat inside. Small little store lots to see. Went near end of day so did not have all the selections. Wasn't too busy at that time I was greeted and served as needed. Picked up some canoli nicely filled. I would agree things are more on the pricier side so a treat every now and then. read more

While their cakes and baked goods are very good there is a serious issue with their cake ordering system. Do not trust their webform if you want timely answer. their checking on the system is sparatic at best. I put in an order asking about a frosting not normally offered and they took 3 days. I only got an answer because I called them twice. While their phone encourages you to use the web form, don't do it until they have a more reliable and responsive system in place. At the moment it is unprofessional and unreliable. read more

4.5 rounding up to 5 We needed some cookie trays for a family function. My sister decided to go with Tre Mari as they're located in the heart of little Italy. When you order on their website, you can choose pickup or delivery. My sister was fine to pick up the trays in order to avoid delivery fees, and make sure they were made so as to be both be in a timely manner but not getting stale. Ordering online is so easy - there are plenty of photos and descriptions to help you choose among the huge array of offerings. We kept it very simple and traditional, going with one amaretti platter, and one assorted platter. It was a bit difficult to gauge just how large the cookies are based on their per person recommendations. It appeared to come out to about $8/person, which seemed very reasonable, but again, we couldn't be sure how many cookies and how large. The platters were ready on time, and pickup went without a hitch. I was a little disappointed with how few biscotti were in the assorted platter, but the cookies themselves were phenomenal. I generally dislike amaretto flavouring and don't care for these biscuits, but these confections were off the charts! So wonderful in texture, with a chewy, crisp at the bite, yet soft interior. They are rather sweet, but they were addictive. For me, who normally can't be bothered eating these cookies, that's quite a testament. The chocolate biscotti that I did get to try was up there with taste, but there were too few for my liking. Too many amaretti being the same as the other amaretti platter we ordered. The trays are sturdy and held up well. I like the ambiance of the bakery itself and would love to sit and monch these tidbits all day. Looking forward to my next opportunity to come back and maybe try the sandwiches, cakes, or gelato as well. read more

Got a box of cannolis for a charcuterie board group date and they were a hit! The pistachio ones were my favourite followed by the hazelnut and strawberry. I saw some fun flavours like pumpkin spice too that maybe I'll try this season. I also got a bag of some amaretti and they were so delicious. Service was excellent even though it was quite busy, they did their best. Also saw their pistachio cake and I will definitely try that next time!! read more

On my recent trip to Toronto, I discovered Tre Mari Bakery, and I'm so glad I found this gem of a spot in Little Italy area. From talking to others I learned this family-owned gem has been a beloved part of the community since the 1960s, and it's easy to see why as I indulged in things. Staff is friendly and seem happy to be here. Also, seating facing the road with large glass windows is great for a curious people watcher like me :) The moment I walked in, I was captivated by the warm and welcoming atmosphere. The array of sweets on display was irresistible with so many cannoli options. I couldn't leave without trying the ricotta cannoli and spritz, and they did not disappoint - light, creamy, and great all around. I paired my pastry with a shot of espresso which was much needed. Good quality espresso for sure. Tre Mari also offers a variety of hot, cooked meals. I decided to try their veal and mushrooms with pasta on my second visit, and it was like a homemade meal - hearty, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. The veal was very impressive, bursting with flavor and the mushrooms were a great addition. Even as a first-time two time visitor, I felt like I was part of something special. Tre Mari Bakery is more than just a place to grab a bite; it's a place where tradition, quality, and community come together. If you're ever in Toronto, this bakery is a must-visit. Make sure you have this gem of a spot on your list! read more

Went here for gelato. My friend & I were offered unlimited samples, by the barista. My friend had asked which were gluten free and the barista showed her a whole shelf of amaretto cookies. I tried one and they tasted similar to regular cookies they were so moist. For gelato my friend had the lemon & pistachio which he really enjoyed. The lemon gelato was too sour for my liking. I had the tiramisu which was way better than the last time I had which was drenched in alcohol this one you couldn't taste the alcohol. I would love to explore more of the menu, the only thing I didn't like was the uncomfortable chairs. read more

4.5/5. I recently ordered a birthday cake online from this bakery, along with a few groceries to meet the delivery minimum (note: there is still a delivery charge). After paying, the website mistakenly listed my order as pick-up instead of delivery. I called the bakery to resolve the issue, and the staff member who assisted me provided outstanding customer service. She said that their system sometimes has glitches. She corrected the order to delivery for the next day without any hassle and even reduced my charge due to the mix-up on their part. When the order arrived, everything was fantastic. The groceries were fresh, and the birthday cake was absolutely delicious. I'm really impressed with their attention to customer care and the quality of their products. Highly recommend for both their baked goods and their exemplary service! I can't comment on ambiance because I order delivery. read more

The cannolis here are the bomb! They're super fresh and the cream filling is generous. Shells don't have a stale-tasting texture to them. They do a flavour of the month that was holiday themed. Prices are decent as well. Self explanatory why there's always a lineup here! read more

I am very very torn about giving Tre Mari 4-stars. But alas, the service's a little bit of a let down for me, so I had to make note of that. My partner and I usually try to get each other birthday cakes from different local Toronto bakeries so we can try out different places. This year, I chose Tre Mari. My partner wanted a fruit cake so I ordered the Tutto Frutta. It was hands down one of the best cakes I've had in Toronto. The cake itself was so moist, simple, and good. The whipped cream was just the right amount of sweetness. It was light and delightful. However, when I did curbside pickup for the cake, their email says to park on a side street and call them so they can get the cake ready. I called, the person told me to wait a moment (without confirming that they were gonna go check on it or anything) and then promptly left me hanging for almost 15 mins. I could hear laughing and joking around in the background. I got impatient (because at this point, wouldn't you be?) so I hung up and redialed. The guy that answered the phone apologized for my waiting and told me to pull up to their back door and he'll be right out. Their back door is in a narrow alley way and because it took so long, a truck needed to get through and we needed to move. We had to park the car in a random spot and I had to get out of the car and wait at their back door. We were expecting guests and I was in a hurry to get home and start on the roast so needless to say I was extremely unhappy. Overall, I really enjoyed Tre Mari's cake but just thinking about the whole pick up process, and the need to drive outside of the downtown core has me hesitating a little. read more

Predatory old Italian men sit outside. Overpriced, lowkey I think they have rats. Don't fw the ambience.

This used to be a daily stop when I spent more time in The Junction. This place is awesome. It's super cute and fun to browse in. Plus, the food is amazing. My favourite things are the almond cookies. I also like their cappuccino. But, I've never been disappointed with anything I've gotten from here. They make great sandwiches and ready made food. Great service too! read more

As someone who grew up with Italian bakeries at every corner and had multiple options to choose from for various cold cuts, pastries and goods, I know my point of view may be a bit differet than those who to an Italian bakery as a curiosity. Please note that weekends and in particular Sundays, are busy Italian bakery days. So, my question is how in the world is only having one cashier, one person at the pastry booth, 5 people behind the bar chatting and giggling excusable? Those lines here are brutal and not to mention, people simply toss manners and decorum out the window to get theri hands on whatever dessert they want (usually not even the traditional Italian desserts funny enough). The food...It is overpriced, not gonna lie. Is it the best quality? No. Are the products hard to find? In Corso Italia? No but elsewhere in the city? Probably if Little Italy is excluded. Foods to avoid: the bread (it will harden in a day), soft cheeses (the thickness of the film gives it a spooky feel), the coffee (I would skip it), and the cold cuts probably to avoid the cost for something unlikely to be of the freshest quality. Foods to get: A Zeppole (although it will be moister than others), the Tiramisu could be worse but most definitely could be better, and chocolates or pre-packed goods that are from Italia. The service...For the 70 dollars I spent on a birthday cake, I would have hoped for at the bare minimum a closed box. I understand that no one wants things squished and smashed. However, why not place the cake in a bigger box? I asked for a bag since it took me well over an hour to reach my designation of this bakery...Denied. When I asked for a bag, just give me a big bag. I saw people with small items leave with huge bags given to them by the cashier. I informed the cashier that I was traveling all the way down to the waterfront/lakeshore. I got two random answers that equated to too bad, so sad, good luck. So a 70 dollar cake PLUS the 21 dollar Uber down to my place because I guess hindsight is 20/20 and I should've brought my own bag. Not. Worth. It. Next time, I will just go to a nearby place and get some cupcakes or something. If you were like me looking for a cannoli cake, there are other bakeries in the city that make them. At the length of time and aggravation this trek costed me, I will simply go to Vaughan next time for something akin to what I ordered. read more

I came here on the recommendation of BlogTO which ranked Tre Mari as being the #1 spot for cannolis but what I found were unremarkable. I had the large vanilla and chocolate cannolis which were $3.50 each. The cannolis were prefilled so while the shell still had some crunch to it you can def tell they were not freshly fried. Otherwise, the shell was not noteworthy. The filling for me was smooth, light, and not too sweet. Vanilla filling was one dimensional in taste and chocolate filling was sour. I still def preferred the vanilla over the chocolate. There's no way to sugar coat it, these were mediocre and far from deserving the #1 spot for cannolis. read more

Tre Mari Bakery was my first real introduction to a chocolate cannoli and from that first bite, I was hooked. Since then, I haven't had one that I've liked better. The velvety filling, the crunch of the deep fried pastry dough and the semi-sweet flavour of the chocolate is a perfect union. On the savoury side, I've also tried their lunch special. Although the serving was generous, I wasn't won over by the meal. I found the meat to be dry and the potatoes to be under seasoned. That said, the long line up at the hot bar tells me that many others do enjoy it and I will be going back to give their lasagna a try. After all, quality of a pasta dish is a true indicator of a good Italian shop. I can understand why they has been in business since the 1960s. This family owned store feels like a loving community clubhouse and it's obvious their customers are loyal. The desserts, deli and Italian-focused pantry items are more than enough reason to stop by and become a loyal patron yourself. If you need any more convincing however, I offer you one more reason: their tiramisu. read more

Two star bump, for starters they modernized the entrance, instead of pull/pull doors they now have the self opening doors like a lot of other stores, Big step in my humble opinion towards becoming more accessible to disabled persons. The cannoli of which I purchased 2 were incredible as per the usual. I paired it with a cafe latte, brilliant pairing. Aside from that They have a grocery section, and I am going to try and keep them in mind next time I want high quality European style groceries. In short you can get cheese and deli meat to serve your family as a snack, the goods to help make an excellent dinner and oh yes their delicious deserts, all in one shopping session, and come Christmas time they have gift baskets. One visit and you will see how this 3rd generation family run business is able to thrive in this day and age. read more

If you visited here you would know why it's 5 stars. It has everything; gelato, crossiant sandwiches, hot plate food (pastas, lasagna etc.) , fresh pastries, deli meat and my favourite , coffee! When you arrive you just head to the counter you'd like; order and pay first then grab a seat. The atmosphere had that homey feel yet it had modern rustic seating and it was very clean. I love the cappuccino and Jean-Paul recommended we try the milk alternative hazelnut milk since soy doesn't froth as well. It was delicious - stole my heart. Jean-paul was very friendly and greeted everyone when they entered. After speaking to him we felt more in love with this place and can see the passion they have for their craft. I can't wait for summer to see what kind of gelato he cooks up. read more

Solid Italian bakery, deli, and grocery store run by four brothers. My fave items here from the hot table are the arancini, paninis, and pizza. Food is fresh and tasty, you can opt to eat in the little cafe or take to go. They also sell various Italian grocery items as well as fresh breads and deli meats. Loads of different traditional Italian pastries and treats. My favourite cannoli are the little chocolate chip ones - yum! The most recent time we stopped in we tried the gelato panini - really unique, a brioche bread stuffed with your choice of housemade gelato and then grilled - yay!! read more

4.5/5 I am in heaven every time I am inside this bakery. This place is a bit inconvenient for me to visit so I don't frequent often. But I get so excited when I do make a trip here. I really like their amaretti cookies and cannolis. The amaretti cookies are so soft and chewy on the inside! I've tried other pastries and it's a hit/miss. Sometimes they taste great and sometimes they don't taste too fresh. I've never had an issue with their cookies though. Their amaretti cookies are amazing! read more

Came here late in the day so there wasn't much left. This is very much the old school bakery and delicatessen. There was limited seating on my visit due to ongoing renovation. My guess is they could add a whole new floor of seating and it would still be busy all the time. It seems to operate both as a local hangout and a destination for all those goodies. The desserts were fantastic and a good coffee. Tre Mari is on my list of go-to for dessert! read more

3.5 stars... better than average with the Amaretti and Chocolate Chip Cannoli being 4 to 5 star. I would give an overall 4 star if the service improves. A clearly beloved Italian neighbourhood bakery that has its regulars come in to enjoy an espresso and cannoli. I was finally in the area to check it out and try the famed cannoli myself. This bakery is far bigger than I expected with a full service hot plate area with everything from veal sandwiches to dinners, large seating area, gelato, a large deli counter, espresso drinks, and all the sweet baked Italian goods. We came after dinner and was hoping for a light sweet bite to close out the night. The bakery allows a lot of light and there are many tables available to sit down. Most of the tables were clean. One clear misstep was the service... there was maybe only 1 person every 5 or 10 minutes trying to order something from the various sections. I spotted at least 1 to 2 employees at each counter. All counters except the actual cashier area was very slow. I stood in front of the cakes while a young lady stood in the middle of the gelato, cookies, and cakes hunched over reading something. I was like for around 5 minutes before the cashier finished cashing out someone and yelled out her name to make her be aware I was waiting. I saw this a few times. Off day with service perhaps? Cannoli (vanilla and chocolate chip ricotta) - I say these prefilled and was worried as it was 8 pm and I know that a pre-filled cannoli is not usually a good sign. We still ordered 2 mini cannolis... one a simple vanilla and the other chocolate chip ricotta. I took a bite of the chocolate chip one and was pleasantly surprised how the pastry still had a nice crunch to it. It wasn't soggy. The sweetness was good and not overwhelming. It could have a bit more flavour (I usually love a bit of candied citrus to offer something more than just sugar). The vanilla one wasn't as good since the shell was definitely more soggy... it wasn't crispy and absorbed some of the filling already. The filling had a tiny hint of vanilla and lightly sweet. Not bad but the shell was a disappointment. 4/5 for chocolate chip and 3.5/5 vanilla Amaretti (almond and maraschino topped) - They have an entire section just dedicated to amaretti and wow, these were just great. Full almond flavour that is not too sweet but very good. The texture was pleasantly chewy and for the ones that had a dusting of powdered sugar had a light thin crispy sugary shell... the maraschino cherry ones were the best as it gave a great cherry flavour (dont get the candied ones!) 5/5 Sfogliatelle - These were gorgeous... flakey layers all nicely seperated with a nice bronze colour. These were really well made. When I took a bite, the layers all shattered and was nice to keep that crunch even it was baked hours ago. What was unfortunate was the filling... even after 3 large bites to try to get to the filling, I kept finding air pockets. There was very little filling and what was there sank all to the back. It had a bit of vanilla but not much. 3.5/5 Butter cookies (blueberry and raspberry - These were really confusing as they were called butter cookies but after taking a bite, there was no taste of butter and incredibly soggy. It did come from a case that had a lot of humidity in it as the case was filled with water drops on the glass. These were more expensive than the cannoli so I was expecting something more but with it having no flavour and lacklustre texture, this was disappointing. I will admit that it looked very good. 3/5 I wish I could give this place a 4 star because they do have some great items... just the service seemed really inattentive and bored. read more

I'm in love with this Italian bakery! The star of Tre Mari is easily its cannolis. I tried a few and they were all consistently good: creamy filling was smooth and not overly sweet, tube was perfectly fried so it was firm (not hard) and tasty (not overcooked). So whatever flavour you get, you're sure to enjoy. You can see I'm a big fan of the cannolis, but also really enjoyed their gelato. I got a medium cup (2 scoops/flavours), and chose sweet cream and peach gelato. Both were summer in a cup: so good! So after all this raving, why only 4 stars? I was a bit disappointed with their other pastries. The bombolone was just ok, and the diplomatico slice was a bit dry. That said, Tre Mari is a winner overall, and a definite must-try. I will be back! read more

The aroma of fresh baked bread, the display cases full of cookies, cakes and pastries that are as appealing to the eye as you know they will be to the stomach and a smiling staff behind the counters let me know this was a place I would love at first glance. Bakeries work long hard hours to produce quality products...and having a staff that adds customer service on top of that is my kind of business to shop. Staying on St. Clair with a very good friend for a couple of days she let me know that we HAD to get cookies. Purchase cookies wedid, a few times...and even just before I hopped into a cab to head back to the States! I loved the sweet, chewy and crunchy crust of the almond cookies the best....and wish I had some right now! The wire shelves holding an assortment of fresh baked baguettes, rolls and other artisan offerings was amazing. Having been in this business myself a few years back, I appreciated the simplicity of their presence in the neighborhood, no frills, no neon....just good food served by good people. I wish I had time to sample the pizza and other hot dishes I saw being readied for the lunch crowd....but that will be another culinary adventure when I return.....and I can't wait! read more

Very similar to San Remo (on the West-end), Lazar (in Mississauga), Monastery (Oakville) or any large, Italian bakery for that matter. Tre Mari seems to be an institution on St. Clair W., and it has a section where bread is displayed, a counter for deli meats & cheese, 2-3 sections with various pastries and baked goods, a gelato section, a hot table, and a coffee bar. This place is pretty big! Choose what you want at the various counter(s), you may have to take a number for the pastries, then cash out in the front. The experience can be a bit intimidating, especially when it's busy, and it was on a Sunday afternoon. I had a Nata tart - pretty good, not sickeningly sweet - and a pistachio cannoli which was really good, pastry was actually crispy which is rare. Well, at least I haven't had one with a crispy pastry in a while. Tons of people seated inside/out, eating gelato, a veal sandwich, sipping an espresso. So they can't be all wrong, right? Staff was pretty friendly. No attitude here. Interior can use some updating. read more

Whenever I'm near little Italy I definitely stop by here to pick up cannolis and some other yummy sweets. If you're near by during lunch or dinner be prepared for a line up. But it does move pretty fast. The porketta is super tender and a must-try. If meat is not your thing then go for any of the pastas. Even the rice is delicious. They do not skimp on portions either so be prepared for leftovers or a stuffed belly. Overall this place is priced well for very good food. The only downfall is that they don't have a lot of seating so its hard to eat in. read more
