1. Plaisir Sucre
Oh Fabrice... how can I convey my love for you and your bakery?
Would I say that I felt the love from the moment I entered your store?
Or that you make some of the best pastries in Vancouver?
Perhaps...
Or I could just go back for another visit and buy…More »
2. Tartine Bread & Pies
At what point should I be seeking professional help for a tart addiction?
Four in two days is totally fine. But, is it sick that I am considering going here every morning for my pastry fix?
The sour cherry, blueberry, and BUTTER tarts are only $1.50…More »
3. Cho Pain
If they could channel some of Tartine's bread making wizardry, Cho Pain would be as good as it gets. Close. But no croissant!
4. Boulangerie Premiere Moisson
After doing a couple of laps around the market our empty stomachs decided it was time for a bite.
Thankfully, we had this bakery in our sights.
They have some great organic breads and paninis for a reasonable price. And the soup was a warm welcome.

6. Sweet Obsession Cakes & Pastries
$6.66 a slice!
That damn HST has combined with the Peanut Butter Mousse to form a devilishly brilliant piece of cake.
I just licked the cake paper from the bottom of the package.
I need more. NOW.

I am definitely sweetly obsessed with these cakes. I have tried almost every kind they have, except… Read more »
7. Blackbird Bakery
They brew up a mean Cappuccino here.
The breads are excellent ( I recommend the Potato).
Sandwiches are really expensive at $7 a pop, but are very good, and most likely the best in town.
I wasn't a huge fan of the "famous cinnamon" buns. I require way…More »
8. Alpine Bakery
Their 1 kilogram Expedition Bread lasts 4-5 weeks without refrigeration.
Beat that!
Every time I would venture out on proper camping trip as a youngster, we would always stock up at the Bakery. Everything is good here. You could literally point at…More »
