Review from Matt B.

Having worked in a small independent bakery, I have a bit of a weakness for these smaller bakeries that aren't attached to a grocery store of any sort. The pies here have been quite good, and so have the cheese buns. It's best to get here early in the day before stuff gets sold out (it's also when things are the most fresh).
I haven't had much else here. I tend to be a pie addict, and I'd heard lots about their cheese buns from others (most of whom weren't on Yelp). So that's what I tend to gravitate towards. Their jelly filled doughnuts aren't bad either. -

I love having this place close to home - reasonable prices, and it's great to see a bakery that still kicks it old school.

I'm gonna let you in on our city's best kept secret. You ready for this?
Wanna know where to find THE best cheese buns in Calgary?
Two words Yelpers: Glamorgan Bakery.
Trish L. isn't kidding when she says they melt in your mouth. OH MY GAWD.
I've been there a million times by now and I've never even tried anything else. I know what I like, or in this case love, and their cheese buns are DA SHIT.
Okay, so I told you. Now whacha gonna do about it? The ball's in your court. -

Glamorgan Bakery has a ton of cakes in the windows, but to be honest, their cakes aren't very good. The mint chocolate one is decent but that's about it.
My favorite Glamorgan item is their shortbread cookies. They're to die for-- simple but amazing, pure shortbread with glazed icing. I miss them so bad. They also make amazing cinnamon bread and cinnamon twists. -

I have lived in Calgary all my life and had the fortune of growing up literally next door to the Glamorgan Bakery. I have travelled to many places in my 33 years on this planet and eaten at many, many, many bakeries. I have yet to discover a bakery that competes with Glamorgan. The cheesebuns have been discussed enough (and rightfully so as they could almost be described as little cheesy, doughy gifts from heaven) but the rest of the bakery warrants discussion as well.. The cinnamon buns are so good they make me ache inside, the brownies weigh as much as a brick and are like eating fudge, the cakes have icing on them that taste unlike anything I have tasted anywhere else, the butterhorns make me want to fill a bathtub full of them and eat my way out. If you haven't paid them a visit, act now and thank me later!

The addictive properties of the cheese buns from Glamorgan Bakery are well known to those of us in the Southwest. This addiction, it seems, has no cure. Nor should it! These delectable buns, made fresh daily in store, are often still warm when you buy them. And rest assured, they rarely get much of an opportunity to cool. They are so good that they have replaced a bottle of wine as an offering at potluck get-togethers. Sure, your host may think you're cheap, but once they're opened, they're always the first item to disappear, and they are always raved about. I could go on about the cheese buns, but I think you get the point.
Besides their heavenly buns, they also have a wide selection of breads, pastries, cookies and cakes. Additionally, they offer both sweet and savoury pies. The only other thing I would add is make sure to load up on Saturday, as they are closed Sundays. -

I just don't get the hype about this bakery? I've given it 2 tries, but their cinnamon twists aren't good at all and their cheese buns really suck! I dunno, but in my humble opinion those two staple items can make or break a bakery and Glamorgan just doesn't get them right.

Good bakery tucked in away in a little strip mall. I love their cheese buns. They absolutely melt in your mouth. Their pies are pretty good too. The rest of the other stuff is standard bakery fare and didn't appeal to me much. This bakery is by far the typical neighbourhood bakery in that they don't have a lot of gourmet stuff. But the cheese buns alone are worth the drive for!

Yah best cheese buns in the city for sure. But my fave is the little mini sausage rolls. Those are the bomb. Yah I agree with Jason G , they must stick something addictive in them, cause I could eat a half dozen myself.
