    raspberry lychee eclair
    Liz C.

    This is a very solid bakery. It's often bustling, especially in the morning, but it's a great place to grab a quick bite. The ambiance inside is very comfortable. I ordered the chicken and apricot sandwich, which was a simple but truly delicious surprise. I never expected chicken salad and apricot to pair so well, and it was perfectly toasted. For dessert, the seasonal lychee and raspberry eclair was also incredibly yummy. Highly recommend this spot!

    Blueberry chia pudding

    Went on a Friday night for some dessert and it was pretty crowded! We were lucky enough to find a table for 3 but after us, there were no empty seats. This place is good if you want to quickly stop by to pick up something but might not be the best place for a sit-down experience unless you go during work hours. The service was amazing as always! They had lots of staff who were very organized and quick with the orders. I usually get the vegan chocolate cookie from here but they ran out (no surprise), so I decided to try the Earl Grey shortbread. It was delicious! I think I found my second fav dessert! Another vegan friendly dessert option which I loved was their blueberry chia pudding, it was so refreshing! It's a perfect dessert for the summer especially. :)

    Copenhagen

    Their sweet bacon panini is so good warmed! I was hesitant because it was the most expensive sandwich there, but wow. They use their own cheddar jalapeno bread, and they saute an onion jam which is sweet and slightly spicy. Chicken pot pie was fluffy and had good amount of ingredients inside. The top was crispy! Copenhagen was okay, a little tough. Not quite flaky like a croissant and not quite fluffy like a cinnamon bun. I like the almond paste though. They were quick and had a little bit of seating for a bite.

    Look at all the full shelves of fresh pastries!

    Come first thing in the morning and your mouth will be drooling! All the shelves are fully stocked with freshly made pastries & sandwiches galore. Loved the CHICKEN SALAD SANDWICH (on Rosemary Cheddar Sourdough). I also tried their STEAK & CHEESE PANINI, and SWEET BACON & CHICKEN PANINI (on Jalapeño Cheddar Sourdough). The apple fritter was doughy but had nice apple chunks in it. Wished I had room to try their matcha cream puff and turkey provolone sandwich! Guess I'll have to make another visit next time :)

    Caffeine + sugars boost - Happy Monday!

    It's all about choices here - wide selection of sweet or savory items plus coffee/tea, you are bound to find something you would like to try. Items I ordered were on the sweeter side so I may opt to try a savory item or breads with black coffee next round. In addition to variety, another perk about this place -- it opens 24/7!!! How awesome to find a bakery and cafe that opens 24/7 in Vancouver so this place gets my 4 stars just for being able to satisfy that late night cravings and for offering early morning breakfast. Ambiance was kinda loud in the afternoon as it was bustling with customers coming and going, plus there's construction around Fraser and 49th which adds to noise factor. Seating is limited for dining in but service is fairly quick - thus, Breka makes my list as a good choice for takeout items and coffee to go. So what did I order? I ordered a chai latte and pistachio cream filled donut though both were too sweet for me... Maybe I will head back to Breka at 5am next time to try other items or try out their other locations in town.

    Tiramisu, strawberry shortcake, blueberry lemon(?)

    Amazing desserts, service is very quick and friendly enough. Ambience is okay, usually busy inside!

    ULTIMATE CHOCOLATE GANACHE CAKE (VEGAN) 
 IDEAL FOR NON LACTOSE

    All my birthday cakes are purchased at Breka on Fraser Street because they are fresh and delicious. Last week I was looking for a non dairy cake for my mother's very special birthday, I knew that Breka did not make customized cakes I was told so I started calling numerous bakeries even the most well known bakeries were unable to make me a non dairy cake. Very strange I find? How difficult can it be. By chance I called Breka again and explained my problem and I very understanding worker explained to me that the Ultimate Chocolate Ganache cake is Vegan, therefore it is ideal for a lactose intolerant person. In fact my mother absolutely loved her cake. My point is, why aren't more bakeries in Vancouver skilled in making non lactose cakes?

    a variety of pastries

    Good selection of sandwiches and pastries but this location doesn't have a lot of seating. I stopped by on Halloween with a friend to pick up a snack to go. We came around 3 pm and there was no line, but all of the tables were full. There's only 4 small tables plus some bar seating along the wall, so it's not a lot. I grabbed a mango coconut mousse ($6.25), and my friend got an Italian pocket ($6.50) plus a coffee. We got our food quickly, but they forgot about my friend's coffee order. We stood around for 10 minutes, and it was only when we saw people who ordered a lot later than my friend get their coffee that we checked in with the barista. She then quickly made my friend her coffee. I ate the mango coconut mousse at home. It was good and not too sweet.

    Reuben - recommended
    Srey S.

    Stopped by here for breakfast. This location in particular is very small with a couple of tables and gets packed easily and loud so it's hard to hear. Service is fast to take the order but getting the order is a little slow. We ordered the Reuben sandwich warmed, chicken apricot sandwich warmed, early grey puff and strawberry shortcake. Both sandwiches are pretty good and decent amount of meat. The earl grey puff was all cream no puff. Couldn't finish it because of all the cream. My kid liked the strawberry shortcake. Tastes like a regular one. Nothing spectacular but pretty though.

    Chocolate filled donut
    KC C.

    The spot for delicious coffee and a bite such as a chocolate donut. It's busy but the line moves fast for those early birds! The service was friendly and an array of pastries and breakfast items! I couldn't decide what to have with my coffee. Sipped on my coffee and had my donut with the views from downtown. Perfect!

    Cute container the little slices of cake come in

This place was located in an area that would be best to walk with a friend or a small group- I was not quite prepared to see and experience what was going on all around. Finally, we made it there and were glad to order some doughnuts. As soon as we entered, we were greeted by the sweet smell of doughnuts and the two friendly staff. Everything looked so good, so narrowing down our pick was very hard! At the end, we ordered two flavours- Matcha and Tiramisu. The matcha doughnut was soft and the filling was light yet full of matcha flavour that one would expect, I loved every bite! My friend had the tiramisu doughnut and she said that she enjoyed the fluffy texture of the dough and the creamy filling- it felt like eating tiramisu in a doughnut form.

Well it seems ownership has changed and the new owner doesn't give two craps about prior customers, honoring discounts, replying back timely or being more friendly? Was playing email tag and finally submitted the 39 flavors and didn't hear back until after another week and then told they won't deliver only in morning when they know our reservation was for 730pm and they're open until 9? I even replied back and nothing. We own and run several business in lower mainland and in United States and this customer service from Unni Pastries is trash. At least you can do is reply back and apologize? For wasting time when I specifically told you it's for family and friends flying into town for a funeral burial. Will never use their business again. I highly suggest Mello. They replied and helped me out last minute. Shame on you! Learn how to run a business and treat customers esp previous customers who were supporting the business and fellow Krn but it's clear the new owner doesn't care about the customer or quality it's all about quantity. Maybe my 39 donuts which I offered to pay extra for time and packaging wasn't large enough but money is money. Especially during this time and economy. You should've at least replied back and even tried asking us to do pickup as the restaurant is down the road. Do better! Go to Mello which isn't too far and they bake fresh daily better pricing and reviews and consistency!
