Not only is my rad cousin the former kitchen manager here, but the food and coffee is extremely tasty.
The BATH sandwich literally haunts my dreams... -

Love this place. My addiction is regularly fed by my mother-in-law, who buys me thir lemon squares when she goes in for her weekly bread-CSA pickups - they evidently have some sort of super-cool program where you can subscribe and get their breads on a schedule over at the bakery part. Genius.
Sandwiches are good, full of nice things, vegetables are ripe and tasty, seasonings are good and balanced. The kitchen is not afraid of a little salt, which I so enjoy - some things are just better with salt, hey? Good coffee, and if you ask nicely someone will usually make an iced coffee/iced espresso with good cheer.
The desserts are /amazing/, and we in Toronto pine for them. Especially the lemon squares. Mmmmm. Lemon squares. -

Okay, I have to admit this place is like chocolate covered crack. Literally. It is that addictive.
Everything that I've ever had here is incredibly uber delicious. To start off the breads are fantastic, the baked goodies scrumptious, the squares insanely good... that's just the baked confections. They also make delicious sandwiches, wraps, soups and salads. I've never had anything bad here. They use top quality ingredients. The service is always friendly and with a smile. Such an outstanding bakery.
My only complaint is that it can be almost too busy. I've been there a few times and not been able to get a seat or been squished next to a large table of ladies lunching. And never make the mistake of parking in the convenience store next door -

Charming breakfast and brunch spot. Everything is very fresh, and of course organic. The coffee's and smoothies are great. They have weekly specials, in addition to their regular menu, so that's nice. While the only thing spectacular about their veggie chili is the size of the bowl, he breakfast sandwich was very good. The pastry shop they have across the street smells ridiculously good--I recommend taking something home.

I went through a bit of a food renaissance recently, and this is one of my favourite discoveries.
With the Grain is a bit of a hike if you're walking from downtown, but I can promise it's worth it. Heck! It even gives you that right amount of anticipation for their tasty tasty treats.
They bake all of their own desserts, breads, etc., and all of them are fantastic. Their desserts are unique (beestings -- shortbread squares with a honey based topping and slivered almonds) and done to perfection.
You can walk in there and get a great lunch (soups, sandwiches, and more), or some pie/squares/scones/etc/etc/etc for a gathering.
Want to grab a treat and a coffee and sit down to enjoy it?
With the Grain is located in a beautiful old house with a really charming comfortable atmosphere and plenty of seating. In addition, they serve Planet Bean brews, locally roasted fair trade coffee also based in Guelph.
Their staff is super friendly and helpful. The place does get a bit nuts though, especially on weekends, so be prepared to brave a crowd if you go during peak times. -
