Below is a list of the best bakeries in Toronto and because of the sheer number of places in the city that sell baked goods, we have to exclude French patisseries from this list. This list includes places you can go for homey classics like cookies, pies, tarts, loaves of bread and buns. If you are craving something sweet, you are sure to find a place on this list in or around your neighbourhood. Perhaps you have a weak spot for bread and other yeasted creations -- we have that covered on this list. Keep reading for some spots to grab delicious baked goods, among other things. When it comes to bakeries, I can confidently say I have tried every place on this list more than once, and they are truly vetted! Make sure to bookmark this list and eat your way through Toronto's best bakeries. This list contains all the best from west of the downtown core in Scarborough to Etobicoke and everywhere in between.
