Nice local bakery with croissant and other baked French goodies. There's also a tiny seating area for a few people. Their almond croissants were spectacular! Pricing wise is a bit on the pricier side but I have also been here later on the day when all the pastries have been sold out so would recommend going early. read more

Overpriced with subpar service. The cashier touched my bread with her bare fingers. Moreover, the latte is too bitter for my taste. (I recommend At Origin Coffee down the road to the North.) The sourdough bread is so-so. read more

Really a first for me and a testament to how great this cafe is. I stood in line for 5 mins to get inside to order my weekend authentic French brioche indulgence and as usual it was so worth it. This has been my go to stop on weekend walks in Mount Pleasant and it should become yours as well. Lots of authentic French pastries on offer including canelles which are difficult to perfect and can't be found in just any old boulangerie. The canelles here are seriously good - crunchy on the outside and creamy on the inside. If you are enticed inside by the offerings in the display case window off Mt Pleasant Rd like I was on my first visit, make your way slowly to the back of the store so you can take your time to salivate over the additional items not visible from outside. These include small individual clear sachets of biscuits and madeleines, pains aux chocolats, croissants of every variety, quiches also of many flavors including classics like ham and swiss, baguettes and baguette sandwiches. Once you get to the back take a moment to order a coffee or a tea and take in the sight of the industrious workers baking bread and other delicacies. Although I generally grab pastries and a coffee and head home to prepare my own brunch, you do have the option of grabbing a seat in the small eating area in the back. There is a small selection of French wines and homemade jams available to purchase here if that is your wish. My haul today included a pair of pains au chocolats, a slice of ham and swiss (quiche Lorraine for those who know ), a mocha and 2 mini brioches. I would have bought a baguette as well but the morning batch had already sold out. Prices seem reasonable to me with my generous slice of ham filled quiche costing less than $8. The staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming so I plan to keep coming back. read more

This place has the best croissants I have found in the city, and surpasses many of the offerings I have had in France and Belgium. They also serve a fantastic Breton pastry, kouign-amann, on the weekend. Staff are friendly. Service is good. read more

Good blueberry cream cheese danish. Suuuuper tiny and packed space. Friendly staff, cool window where you can see the baking magic. Quiche Lorraine - taken to go since it was massive but ate half in store. Pretty good but cold in the middle. read more

The chocolate croissant and apple turnover were excellent canelles are only on weekends and the best I've tried. Their butter bread is delicious as well. A solid bakery read more

An amazing French patisserie in Toronto. It's reminiscent of the food in Montreal. A step above the rest! Their pastries are decadent and melt in your mouth good. I loved every morsel. read more

Amazing! Under the suggestion of my boyfriend I gave this place a try and I was blown away by the quality and service of this bakery! I got a pistachio croissant and it was buttery, flakey and lots of pistachio flavour. I didn't enjoy the ham and cheese quiche, imo, it was too creamy. The pistachio tart was pretty to look at, obviously not too pretty to eat! Hahaha, it was so delicious! Can't wait to return an try other items read more

If you love fresh baked goods, you have to make a stop to check out this cafe here on Mount Pleasant! There's always a lineup to go in, but once you're in, there's a nice display case of cakes. Due to covid, their seating section is fenced out and is not available for patrons, but from a distance, you will see trays and trays of freshly baked goods sitting in that area! I picked up a few treats and had the almond croissant myself. I loved how it wasn't overly sweet! It's a nice weekend treat and I'm looking forward to try their other items! read more

Excellent pastries and a great selection of breads. The people are very nice and help you with your selection.

This is such a cute French bakery! The quality and variety of items they have is impressive. I tried a latte, almond croissant, chocolate croissant, and a variety of tarts. Everything was delicious and tasted amazing. I will definitely be back to try some of the bread and other pastries they have. Everything seemed reasonably priced. It's definitely not cheap, but a nice place to go and treat yourself! This place is probably also a local favourite. So expect lines, especially because they only allow a limited number of people inside at a time( covid restrictions). My only negative comment is that all of their pastries, tarts, bread, etc lack labels with description and price. So you are forced to constantly ask what everything is, and how much items cost. read more

Small cafe, usually get takeout. Recommend the chocolate twist bread - it's like a croissant but with chocolate in twist form.

One of best French bakery I've tried in Toronto! This reminds me of Montreal...yep homesick homesick. The store is lovely and you always will see huge line up even in COVID scenario. Everyone was nice to follow social distancing rule. Max 2 customers are allowed in the store at the same time. Butter croissant and almond croissant are sooooo delicious, almost perfect in my standard. Try it if this is in your neighborhoods read more

Jules has been around for years, and has always been solid, but lately they've been stepping up their game. On a recent visit, the plain croissant was perfectly crisp and flaky, while the inside overflowed with butter flavour. A blueberry danish was full of delicate fruit flavour. Baguettes were crisp and held up until the end of the day. The word seems to be spreading as there is now typically a line out the door on weekends. The bread and pastries may be slightly overbaked for some, but I prefer it done this way. The best croissants in midtown right now. read more

If you're into croissants, chocolate, almond, etc.. a good friend of mine introduced me to this place and they are the best. Ive tried others in and around Toronto, they just aren't the same. There is usually a line to get some but its worth the wait. Most places have either chocolate or almond but rarely together. Julie's has both in one! SO delicious!! read more

Nice little café with beautiful pastries, if I'm to go by the other photos posted. However, there weren't many options in the display case the two times I visited. I suppose I better get there earlier in the day. I tried the mille-feuille on my first visit - it was a generous portion but not as delicate as I was expecting. In fact, the layers seemed almost soggy when I put my fork in. Flavours were ok but the pastry cream was a bit thick and heavy. Today I tried a croissant and a slice of broccoli & cheddar quiche. The croissant was very buttery and flaky - very nice - even better when warmed up. The quiche was very thin, but full of broccoli - although not much cheddar - I think it's only sprinkled on top. However, it was lovely and creamy. I just wish it was thicker, so as to feel more substantial. Kind of pricey in my opinion, $2.45 for a croissant and $5.95 for a slice of quiche. I don't recall exactly what I paid for the mille-feuille but I remember being surprised at the price. And not in a good way. I'd like to try their lemon tarts if they still have them, though, because in the photos they look amazing and lemon tarts are my favourite. read more

Get the Vanilla Square, best pastry I have ever had.. the custard was perfect! My vanilla latte was pretty great too. Such a cute spot, just wish it was bigger for more seating. read more

One of the best croissants in the city no doubt, the pastries are always so flakey and buttery and always fresh and warm. I got the butter croissants and I devoured it in seconds, plan to be back for the drinks! read more

The best pastries in the GTA. Recommend their Sour Cherry Danish, the Mixed Berry Danish, the Raspberry-filled croissant, as well as their plain croissants. read more

Butter Croissant ($1.80)is A-OK! Really buttery and flaky.. hmmm..crumbs everywhere!! :P Cappuccino ($2.70) made from strong roast and went well with the Croissant. On a cold winter day, it did get chilly even the sitting area is at the back of the cafe. The tables are small and really tight together.. a really Parisian feel? Staffs here are super nice and smiley. Quiche, sandwiches and soup if you want to have a quick lunch, they all look delicious and fattening good! We are talking about French food! If it is healthy.. then they are not French! :P There are also some sweet and pastries and cookies for people that prefer some sweetness in life! There are no prices on the menu written on the chalkboard.. there are no prices anywhere?! Wishful thinking.. no prices not equal to free... :) read more

Stopped in after going to the gym down the street. Grabbed a croissant and a baguette to go. The croissant was flaky, buttery and deeeeelicious. The baguette was also really, really good. Probably totally defeated my workout, but ... I didn't sit in, but I saw a small dining area in the back. They had a variety of salads and quiches (my fave) so I'll have to try these items next time. Yay I'm a fan... until next time ! read more

Came highly recommended to me by multiple people. Amazing, just amazing. Will be back.

These folks have a stall at the Sunday Leslieville Market on Eastern Ave. and it was my first time checking them out. I sure will be back or will go to their storefront!! I bought some almond croissants and a seeded baguette!! Both were excellent and the croissant was one of the best I have had in the city. At the market I noticed they had a lot of great varieties of bread plus croissants of differing varieties. They also had bread and butter pudding in squares. Everything looked excellent and the booth was hopping! Check it out if you get a chance. That market runs 8 am to 1 pm on Sunday's. read more

Fabulous whole grain sandwich loaf on weeks with lots of seeds. Almond or chocolate almond croissants yummy.

This places makes everything "bien cuite" which means in bakery terms very well done. Brioche dry and over baked. Dry over baked pain au chocolate. Dark well done baguette. Even the tartes had such a dark over baked colour. Shame really. read more

I'm so happy to have found a French patisserie (bakery) in my neighbourhood. It sits right across from a French bistro et cafe as well. Double jackpot. Jules' reminds me of a tiny patisserie that used to be on our drive home, a long way's away from Toronto. I played it safe and tried out the croissants et un pain au chocolat (aka. chocolate croissant). Both were pretty good. Just the right amount of butter (which means tons) and crispiness to start your day off merrily. And they are generous with the chocolate in the chocolat croissant. I also had a quiche that I saved for later in the day. I knew I'd have mid-study hunger pains- It totally did the trick. Crust was overbaked but the eggs, ham and gruyere batter was tasty. Couple downsides- too hot in there, poor seating options and stiff service. The staff should also speak French and I don't believe they do. I may be back, peut-etre pour une tarte or a madeleine or something. Place is dangerously close to home, pun intended. Good thing the gym is smack in the middle of that walk lol. I RECOMMEND: The chocolate croissant aka Pain Au Chocolat :) Hands down, no contest. EXTRA TIP: Open on Sundays. So is THOBORS, the other bakery next door which gets a higher rating. Now if I could just get someone to bring me my croissants and crossword puzzles in bed.... read more

The bakery has some of the best pastries, sandwiches, coffee and cakes that I've had in Mid-town, so this review is not about the food. The only thing that bothers me is that they really have to fix the hornet, fly and bee problem they have on the interior of the store. I had to stop going in there because the hornet problem is so bad. I hope they turn this around soon because I love it so much. read more

The best almond croissants in the GTA. The Cappuccino and Latte are delicious also. My fiancé loves the eclairs. The service is pretty quick given how tiny the place is. The servers are friendly. Highly recommend ! read more

Jules Cafe Patisserie - Rye whole wheat sourdough - Bakeries Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Jules Cafe Patisserie is a nice small cafe. Coffee is good, but it is expensive by considering the shop and the area. Maybe the customers there stay so long in the shop, so the price may be reasonable for Jules Cafe Patisserie. They have salads, pastries, and other baked things. The croissant is good. I do not know why Jules Cafe Patisserie does not show their business hours on their website. I went there around 9:00 and they already opened. read more

Love this pastry shop! They have a variety of pastries, breads and cakes. I believe you can also order coffee from here. This is our go to place for croissants :) read more

The pastries are flaky, fresh and delicious. I got a box of about 8 different items for family and they enjoyed everything! From the Chocolate croissants to almond croissants to apple tarts and apricot pastries, everything was tasty, flaky and not overly sweet. They're right across from the my salon so I'll be dropping by when I'm in the area again. read more

Pastries and bread is fantastic but they don't have good coffee. I tried apple tart and it was fresh and light. Baguette was also really good read more

Dropped in to this little cafe for a quick coffee and almond croissant and was pleased with the selection of salads and sandwiches they had. My friend tried the beet salad and lentil salad and was very pleased. My coffee was delicious, and my almond croissant was perfect! Flaky with a bit of stickiness on the outside, and the almond filling was sweet, but not overly sweet or heavy. Just the way I like it. The staff at the counter was friendly and very kind. Seating is limited and the layout slightly awkward (I wouldn't be able to bring my son in his wheelchair without moving tables and chairs), but it was fine for a quick eat with a friend or two. They offer samples of the cookies at the cash register, and this works! I was happy to purchase packages of almond cookies to enjoy at home. Yum! read more

I came here to grab some pastries and was pretty disappointed when I walked into Jules Cafe. Jules Cafe is a tiny narrow place that sells baked goods, lunch, candy; they also have a coffee bar and very few tables that are cramped together in the back. There was no board up or anything listing their goods or prices when I came here, which left me in confusion. Behind their glass counter there was barely anything left except for a few billion year old looking quiche slices and croc monsieur. The lady here was very friendly and helpful. I was looking to get an iced coffee beverage as it was boiling hot outside, but they don't offer any iced coffee beverages. I ended up picking out a couple of danishes and a couple of almond croissants from a basket which barely had anything left. For these four small items it cost a little over $10, which I think is pretty pricy considering its size and quality. I've had better! The blueberry and custard danish were sweet, flakey and good but a tad bit stale. The almond croissant was also flakey and had a nice sweet and gooey almond cream filling in the middle. Unfortunately, the croissants were a bit stale too. I find the staleness quite surprising because of the hype of their pastries here. Overall, Jules Cafe Patisserie did not impress me. Their croissants and danish were not fresh, the place lacked goods when I was there, and the prices are a bit high at this place. read more

A very cute little shop on one of my favourite streets. Settled 2 doors down from Fabulous, Jules is a perfect little french oasis. I stopped in for treats to take to work on Christmas Eve. Jules was quite hopping at 8 am. You could see a lot of people had made their orders as there were a lot of boxes and bags designated to some holiday celebrating folk. Always a good sign. After looking over the goods, wanting to try them all, I decided on 4 different bags of cookies. The gingerbread, chocolate shortbread, chocolate and white shortbread, and the madelaines did not last long at work. My office smelled so good, and a lot of "oh wow!" and "ooohhh" were the overall consensus regarding the treats. I did treat myself and get a cafe au lait (one of my fav caffeinated bevs). Jules wins big huge bonus points with me on this item as it was super hot and took about 6 layers of skin off my mouth...as every hot beverage should do. Thank you Jules...I will be back...maybe with my special order! Note - Jules accepts debit. Small seating area in back. Perfect for a little latte between lovers. read more

On Sat and Sunday, they made a brioche bread loaf that is simply amazing! We bought a loaf and made the best PB&J sandwiches I ever had. Nice bakery. read more

This place has the best croissants in town, and believe me, I must have tried all them all. My particular favourite is the custard filled croissant. Who imagined that anything could be this delicious! Bravo. Their sandwiches and pastries are also fantastic. A great go-to place for your morning commute. It has a small seating area, with about 3 or 4 tables. It's pretty limited space but I've always managed to get a table. read more

We tried to order ICED coffees, the guy served us hot coffees that was burning to the touch. We asked why we got hot drinks when we ordered iced coffees thinking he might've gotten our order wrong. He said he did serve us iced coffee and his reason was that there's ice in the drinks that takes longer time to melt... Apparently some kind of special ice we don't know about. We kind of let it go and walked out the door with our beverages, we opened the cup, there's one tiny little piece of ice that's almost fully melted. Basically, we didn't get our cold beverages... Not even hot beverages because there was still ice put in the drink. We ended up with Luke warm coffees. Very unimpressed. Will never come back again. read more
