In love with this bakery / pastry shop. We stopped by twice during our week long stay in Canmore and everything we tried was delicious! We mostly tried their desserts / mini cakes, but the chocolate croissant was delicious as well. My favorite dessert was probably either the Gateau de Chocolat ($7.95) or the lemon and meringue tart ($6.50), but it's all down to personal preference and taste. Lots of the folks around me in line were picking up their bread or pre-made sandwiches, so those seem to be pretty popular as well. You seriously can't go wrong with anything here.

Little gem bakery in the heart of Canmore. Friendly service and they were so happy to help us with our dietary restriction. We tried their lemon meringue.. super good and the coconut passion fruit cake lots of flavour and original! There is an amazing park "riverside park" few minutes drive where we enjoyed those delicacies

I am in town visiting a friend that I hiked the Camino DeSantiago with. There was a chocolate pastry that we had on the trail that had fond memories for us. This bakery made a delicious one, called Chocolatine, as well as one with almonds... We also shared a Danoise sale that was absolutely divine and the monkey bread was perfect. The chai latte was amazing as well... Not too sweet and just enough spice. I highly recommend this bakery and I will definitely be eating there again tomorrow morning!

Very good, really trying to replicate bakeries in France. Does a great job at that, just twice as pricey.
