Breads awesome and everything is fresh but, the cashier who dealt with us today was very rude since we didn't know it was cash only. Customer service could definitely use some help.

Best coffee and tiramisu in GTA.
Also, they have my favourite bread. Worth the drive from Kitchener.

Excellent bakery. The quality of the products, the atmosphere, the prices, and the friendly staff all add up to a pleasant experience. Better visit them outside of the rush hour or the weekends when the place gets crowded.

Good variety of German bakery goods. I don't like the "Cash" only policy, no credit card or debt cards. Cash only for a large organization seems a bit shady to me. Who carries that much cash with them these days. Food quality is not a first class bakery.

They have pretty good COVID protocol and only few people are allowed to enter the store at the same time. I went here once before COVID and we were happy to return but this time it was like I was in baking factory..less appealing as a bakery..not many selection available as before.

The quality and variety of their bread is unrivaled. I have been buying their products for at least 20 years and they are very consistent in terms of quality. Miss the good old times when the bakery and cafe were busy, but having access to freshly baked bread at a decent price right in the neighborhood is still very valuable.
