3.5, rounded up 'cause many of the ladies working there did ask if I needed help!…read more Contrary to the name of the place, this is more of a European grocery store rather than a bakery. It was like a smaller, family-owned version of a Starsky's. There are waaay more groceries like bottled sauces, canned goods, deli counter, than breads. A good portion of the breads don't seem to be baked there. Got a coupla paczki and they were ok, $1.75ea, not super fresh tasting, but not stale or anything. Double Smoked Kielbasa was good. Other than breaded cutlets, I didn't see prepared foods, but then again I wasn't really looking! If you're from a bigger city with access to such European grocery stores, St Joseph "Bakery" won't be a standout.

An assorted sub is $5.75. I ordered some wood smoked kielbasa, kabanosy, and hot pepperettes. All were very reasonably priced and tasted fantastic. They have lots of polish goods and other european items. It's a pretty big place. They have a freezer area with frozen meat on a stick, cabbage rolls, and perogies. Towards the far right of the store are loaves of breads and rolls in bags. I'm not sure why, but none of these items have prices on them. We did buy a few loaves of italian and french bread, they were $2.20 a piece. Again, very reasonable. Everyone in here was super friendly and they speak polish too. I will be back for more deli meats and to try a sub!

Love the assortment, the freshens of cold cuts and overall the courteous service. Unfortunately there are not too many places you can get "old time" naturally smoked deli any more. Let's keep in mind, that when these places are gone, they are gone for good, and you can eat deli soaked in smoky water and artificial flavors. Looking forward to make my usual deli "fix" this afternoon. Cheers. Laszlo

I've been wanting to try their Sicilian-style pizza for quite some time, and my birthday cookie…read morereward finally gave me the perfect excuse to celebrate. They already have a fantastic thin-crust pizza, so I asked if they could make the Sicilian style with the muffuletta toppings. No problem at all. It took a little longer than expected (ordered for 4:45, ready at 5:00), but it was absolutely worth the wait. Ordering is easy online or by phone. If you get voicemail, just call back - they're probably on the phone with another customer. Now, about that pizza. The thick Sicilian crust had the perfect chew: light and airy inside with a crisp, golden bottom. Every bite was loaded with the bold salty toppings, bringing a savory, slight spice/pickled kick that paired perfectly with the oils and melted cheese. The toppings reached edge to edge, creating a pizza that was hearty, flavorful, and impossible to put down. Please pencil in a visit to The Deli on a Wednesday to grab one of their pizzas. I do recommend ordering ahead to claim your dough. This version reads like a Yelp review and really highlights the texture and flavor of a loaded Sicilian pie.

I don't usually venture this far West on McLeod Road, but I happened to be driving by one day, and…read morethe words "European Deli" caught my eye. Europe is, of course, a big place, but past experience has taught me that I'm much more likely to find the goodies I came to know and love in Croatia and Bosnia in a place with "European Deli" in the the name than in your basic average grocery store. At the time, I was in a hurry, but now that I knew that the place was there, I promised myself that I'd go back and investigate when I had more time. A later inspection of the outside of the store revealed a couple of photos of products that I know and love: Podravka Vegeta and Kraš Napolitanska. Better yet, there are the magic words "chevaps" and "burek" right on the front of the store. The inside did not disappoint. Quite the contrary, it was better than I even dared hope. Many of my favourite brands and products are on the shelves: ajvar, pašteta, višnija (sour cherry) syrup, chevaps (or, as I know them, ćevapi) in the freezer. (Plus a bunch of cookies and chocolate that I shouldn't even be looking at these days. I love them, but my doctor is on my case to get my blood sugar down.) To my surprise and delight, they even have mlinci, which is a rare find. Most recently, I took my sweetie there. They are still open, although they're limited to only having five customers in the store at a time. But what really made that trip worthwhile was the glass case with a familiar-looking baked item inside. The clerk saw me eyeing it, and said, "It's a cheese pie. We call it burek." I was so thrilled, I had to order two portions right away. Once my sweetie tried it, she couldn't stop saying, "This is so good!" (Okay, granted, some stores do sell "Twisters", which are quite similar, but this was the style that I was first introduced to, and still my favourite.) I am so happy to have found this place. Now I have a reliable source of some of my favourite goodies.

It was right around the corner from Cippys. It was like heaven walking in their door! The sights and smells of a good Italian bakery welcome you immediately. There were at least 4 different cases of yummy sweet delights. They had a nice selection of cheeses, meats, and shelves of Italian groceries. Items you might not normally find in your local grocery stores. How about some baccala? The star of the show here is their bread. There's a separate room you enter to make your bread selections. Again, the smell!! I didn't see anyone entering that didn't leave with bread. We checked. This place is 26 miles from our house and requires making the trip across the border. We'll be back! 2023-98
