I came here to use a Groupon ($30 worth of cupcakes for $15), after reading all the great reviews here (thanks Yelpers!).
The place is really airy and spacious, with some limited but very cute seating areas and beautiful cakes on display.
$30 buys a…More »
Stopped by today after yoga and am pleased to see that business continues to be bustling at this adorable French creperie! I first discovered Crepes a Gogo when they had a booth at a Francophone festival at the Harbourfront Centre, then visited them…More »

Lovely addition to Queen West West. The simple, white decor is gorgeous and the service is excellent. Staff will patiently explain each pastry and offer suggestions. I had the "Marie Antoinette", a sort of mousse covered in multicoloured…More »
This financial district cupcake shop has been open for just about 1 week now. I decided to try it out after reading about it in the news. The owner, Jean Blacklock (a 'prairie girl' from Saskatchewan), is a lawyer by training and in 2009 quit her Bay…More »

Came across this little chocolate shop while wandering the Do West Design festival. Owner Odile Chatelain is super-friendly and my friend and I got to try samples of her champagne truffles. Divine! They are little works of art (some even have gold…More »

It's not fashion, it's... mashion. I've never been here, this review is just for the egg tarts (dan taat). My friend brought me one today and all I can say is this place makes a mean egg tart! The crust is light, crisp and flaky without being too…More »

They've added more toppings, like: mochi (sooo good!), strawberry bobba (kind of like the tapioca in bubble tea but more squishy), and vegan cookie dough.
They also have a loyalty card now. You gets points for every dollar you spend, and I think when…More »

Just came back from brunch here. My friend and I arrived at noon, probably a bad idea in terms of planning... Brunch in the city requires some strategy and it's usually best to try for either early (10-11am) or late (after 1). So we did end up…More »
Delightful little place for desserts or weekend brunch. The space is airy and light. Right when you enter, you will be overwhelmed with all the different tarts, cakes, and such on display. The presentation is stunning, each is a beautiful (and…More »

A pricey dessert place, it seems like you are paying more for the atmosphere and decor than the actual food. The room is gorgeous, decked out in deep purple and black with chandeliers and luxurious details. Went with some girlfriends on a Saturday…More »

Decided to try out Granowska's today because I had a craving for perogies and Krak appears to have closed for good:(
It's more of a deli/take-out place than a restaurant, but there are a few tables, both indoor and outdoor, available. There is no…More »

I have been here a couple times, most recently after going to Starbucks across the street and realizing there was zero seating available.
This girly bakery is cute. There isn't much seating, just a few small tables for two and some counter seats. But…More »

I've been to MBCo a couple times. The location is great -- overlooking Cumberland Ave., close to Bloor but quieter. The place is nice and calming and service generally okay. However, as others have previously mentioned, the food items are so…More »

I have been going to The Apricot Tree regularly for the past 15 years, pretty much since it opened (back when it was in this tiny space and mostly served only desserts and coffee). It's located in a small, upscale shopping plaza in Mississauga's west…More »
This place is pretty cute and the cupcakes are good! But it's a cut-throat niche market, and as far as cupcakes go, I didn't find this place measured up to Bobbette & Belle or even Prairie Girl Bakery. One of the biggest factors is cost. Each cupcake…More »

My friends and I weren't excited about dessert options at Mavrik, so after dinner, we wandered around looking for somewhere to sit down for dessert. However most dessert places in the area, like Nadege or Dufflet or Dlish cupcakes, close early so we…More »

I took one of the cooking classes here. The classroom/kitchen is upstairs, next to LCBO. It was Thai cooking with Florene Kwok and it was $30 for a 2 hour class. Now, they call it a 'class' but it is more of a demonstration. I.e. you aren't actually…More »

Came here for breakfast and was surprised how much seating there is in here (2 floors). It's really clean and nice inside - clearly they pay attention to details here. Service is efficient. You order at the counter and they take down your name. They…More »
