So many delicious choices! I grabbed a little bit of rhubarb, crisp and pumpkin custard. The rhubarb flavor was fantastic and the pumpkin custard had an amazing texture. My favorite thing was their date oat bar. I absolutely loved the moist texture of the dates and then the chewiness of the oats with a touch of crunch on top. It was busy during Saturday lunchtime, but the line went pretty quick. read more

Really enjoyed the scotch pie. It was filled with meat and onions. The counter was inviting, the ladies behind the counter were very sweet and answered all our questions. Would go back and try more yummy items, as so many things looked amazing. read more

I was craving some healthy food, so I was captivated by the pretty salads. I got the "Tasty Beet Salad," and I enjoyed the oranges and orange dressing. I am not a big beet person, but the beets were not bad. I thought the price was too high. They price it by weight. I got a really small cup of this salad for over $7. My friend got the salmon pot pie for over $7 as well, which was small but more worth the price since it's a savoury pie. We both noted that the salmon was weirdly flaky and had a very strong fishy (in an unnatural manner) taste. read more

Great location in Granville Market with unique Canadian baked items that we've been wanting to try, the tortiere was tasty (appreciated they were able to heat it up), also had nanaimo bars that I wanted to try but the service was pretty awful - didn't greet, seemed indifferent to my curiosity, and I left feeling that I was bothering them more than supporting them. read more

Was not able to try everything I wanted here as we were about to do a food tour, but they had so many yummy savory and sweet options here. Snacked on a cheese twist and it was flaky and yummy. read more

This bakery had a massive collection of baked goods - both savory and sweet! Helpful staff warmed up our pies. Steak and onion pie: Flaky crust, tender beef and onions in a gravy sauce - Not bad! Salmon pot pie: Flaky crust, flaky salmon, soft onions, and tender mushrooms in a creamy sauce. I also had my first ever Nanaimo bar from here! The chocolate and coconut were super sweet. read more

One of our must stops when we walk around Granville Market! They have tons of different sweets to try and we tend to try something different each time we visit. I really don't have anything bad to say. Everything is always fresh and sweet and delicious. It's so fun to see what new offerings they have! Careful though, it's easy to overdo it ;) read more

This was one for the better places in the market. Quick line. Friendly service. Reasonable prices. We went with the pot pie. And a roll. Good stuff. read more

During my visit, they had a handful of delicious vegan options to choose from. I ordered the vegan brownie and the peanut butter almond square. The vegan brownie is more of a spongy chocolate cake with a light, non overpowering layer of chocolate icing. For only a few dollars, you get an almost 3 inch thick yummy square that goes down easy and doesn't feel sickeningly chocolatey like most desserts tend to. As for the peanut butter almond square, I think it's safe to say that it's one of my new favourite vegan treats. The base is a chewy chocolate layer that's almost brownie-like, followed by an absolutely delicious layer of creamy peanut butter, then topped with an equal layer of chocolate icing. The three layers combined create a near perfect dessert that'll have you coming back for more! If you're ever in the area, I highly recommend checking out these treats! The peanut butter almond square, especially, will not disappoint! read more

As a fan of pastries - both savory and sweet - in all their forms, Laurelle's was a moment of "I want one of everything, please!" I had skipped on breakfast as I knew I was going to get something in Granville Island Public Market, and my initial idea was to grab breakfast, lunch for Stanley Park, and a post-ride snack from there. Things changed as I was recommended The Sandbar for lunch, but still needed breakfast. I told myself I'd do a lap, but I froze in spot the moment I saw Laurelle's. I mean, they have so many different types of hand pies, it just makes sense you get a walking around snack from here. And I did just that. It will still take you time to figure out what you want. The salmon roll sounded unique, but I didn't know how well it would hold between there and riding around the park. Same with the shepherd's pie (and I am a sucker for a good shepherd's pie) and the various cheesecake brownie things that I wish I was eating right now. Regular pie slices, cookies, tarts, all of it looked amazing. I settled on the following: -Sausage Roll for walking around: As I hadn't made it halfway through the market and needed breakfast, this was going to be my street food-style snack as I meandered about. It was so good! flaky pie outside, meaty and slightly spicy interior. So good. -Cornish Pasty for post-ride: As my plan was to ride around Stanley Park, figured having something to enjoy afterwards would be smart and as I haven't had a Cornish Pasty before, had to try it. I inhaled this thing after I got back to my Airbnb, a good beef, potatoes, onion hand pie. Even knowing I had a dinner coming up, I just went to town once I tried it. -Chocolate Chip Cookie: Hard to go wrong with a classic. This turned into my snack and a view, as I got through most of the park, found a shaded, grassy spot near a beach and just treated multiple senses at once. Seriously, if coming to Granville Island Public Market, make a stop here. Pick yourself up a treat for there or later, or if feeling generous your family. I mean, they have sweet AND savory, you can't go wrong! read more

This place is located right at the heart of the Granville food market. Every time we are at Granville Island, we stop here because they have the BEST vegan oatmeal blueberry bar. I wish there was a recipe but I think they keep it a secret because they don't want to lose customers. These wonderful desserts are decadent and delicious. The filling tastes not too much like jam but like fresh blueberries that was reduced down and made into their delicious filling. The desserts are more on the pricy side but still worth buying. read more

Great little bakery in the public market that has a variety of goods available, including some interesting lesser known items like a 'scotch pie' and 'tofu chew'. Personally I love their maple leaf shortbreads read more

So we just finished our tour and it was our last stop. We were starving! Our wonderful driver told us where to go. We wondered into the Market Place and what a selection we found. Laurelle's is located toward the back of the market place were there is more seating. Their dishes were a mix of Italian and some local flare. We had the spinach lasagna, meat lasagna, sausage rolls and Cornish pasty's. The lasagna could have used a little salt, but it was great. There salads were very good as well. We had the potato salad and the broccoli tortellini salad. We enjoyed our entire meal. The people are friendly and food is fantastic. read more

Pretty happy with this place! They have a wide variety of savoury and sweets and they accept credit cards. The cashier was friendly too. I got a ginger yam roll ($4.25), a cheese twist ($1) and nanaimo bar ($2.50). The ginger roll was interesting, never had something like it before. Kind of small for $4, but worth trying something new! My first time trying a Nanaimo bar, so i'm not sure how authentic it is, but it's packed with coconut and chocolate flavour. Quite nice but really sugary! Make sure you take one bite at a time! The cheese twist was okay. It wasn't buttery nor flakey like the cheese twists in Brickstreet Bakery in Toronto -- if it was, I would've given this place a solid 5/5. read more

Not only do the desserts look amazing, they also taste great! Had my first experience of a Nanaimo bar here. It was a bit sweet for the regular one with coconut but I loved the base layer! They also had a pistachio Nanaimo bar. Aside from naniamo, also got their almond praline which were also very good. They have milk chocolate and dark chocolate to choose from. I can't speak for their savoury items but definitely will go back for the sweets! read more

Cappuccino Nanaimo Bar($2.10) - White Chocolate, Coffee, Hazelnuts, Butter. Chocolatey Yumminess Dessert named Nanaimo that as a Tourist from the East, I though I should give in and indulge as one of the BC Food items outside of the famous Vancouver Crab. Although I wasn't getting any Coffee scent, it was still delicious and perfectly sweetened, melt in your mouth Chocolate Dessert. For that price, I should have gotten their regular Nanaimo Bar(Belgium Chocolate, Butter, Custard) as well! 3.5 *Stars* Laurelle's sells various other Pastries, Desserts and cold Salad items that seemed more popular as it was relatively close to the Food Court seating. They can distribute these Desserts to other Cafes and those Cafes can easily charge $3.00+ for them. read more

Wanted something sweet and bumped into this place! I got the lemon bar, pecan tart, coconut macaroon and pecan caramel bar. My favorite are the lemon bar and pecan caramel bar, I thought they would be room temperature since they were in the display case but they were icy cold! I assume they've probably been in a fridge? I'm not sure but took them them home to heat up! read more

Not a lot of vegan food at Granville Island so this is a solid option. Tofu roll was pretty good though slightly milder in flavour, chocolate brownie (more like cake) was moist, date bar was okay. The almond butter bar was my favourite but it was quite tiny in size. read more

I have a weakness for chicken pot pie and anytime I see one, I MUST HAVE IT! The crust and hot moist filling were a nice way to warm up from the cold weather. I also had a wild beet salad which was tasty as well. They're known for the Nanaimo bars, but I personally didn't care for it. I don't think this is anything against Laurelle's, I think it's just not for me. There are so many items to choose from that it can feel a bit overwhelming, but it's definitely a place I'd go back to again to try more baked goods and desserts! Next time I'm bringing a group of hungry friends so we can go splitsies on everything! read more

The hubby and I were in Vancouver for the weekend and we took the bus over to Granville Island and had so much fun. Walking through the market is almost overwhelming with the yummy looking food choices. So many items looked good at Laurelle's so we tried a few things. -Sausage roll - yummy -Chocolate Hazelnut Rugelach - AMAZING -Mini Mincedmeat Pie - for the hubby - he said it was tasty Will be back next time we get to Granville Island. read more

I really liked everything I tried here. The Cornish pasty was filled with spiced ground beef and vegetables, and they warmed it, which makes it perfect for a cold day snack. I also really liked their tiny raspberry almond tart. It was amazing how much flavor was there, and it was beautiful too, with the sugar baked onto the crust. Another day, I had their ginger cookie, and that was so good. It has a chewy texture and little bits of chopped candied ginger. I think this stall is one of the highlights of the Public Market. read more

We walked through the whole Granville Market before deciding on where to make our purchases and liked the look of Laurelle's. As you can see from my photo, we picked a few items to taste and of those our favorite was the apple crumble. Too bad it's a seasonal item. Get it while you can! read more

I got both the sausage roll and the quiche. I asked to have both of my pastries heated. However, when I took my first bite of the quiche, it was barely lukewarm on the outside and filling was cold. I was not impressed with quiche. Luckily, the sausage roll was savoury and it had a hint of spicyness that gave the pastry a nice kick. Maybe I'll have better luck with their other patries, but I will stay away from their quiches. read more

Located in the Public Market on Granville Island, this place has a huge variety of savory and sweet baked goods. Included in their selection is a deli section offering prepared salads and meals to go. I doubt you can walk away without buying anything. I dare you! I returned a second time to pick up some savory pies! Pastry is buttery and golden brown, filling is delicious and prices are good! Most places charge $7.99 and up, theirs are well below.

Laurelle's Fine Foods has a beautiful display at the Granville Island Public Market. We circled back a few times before deciding on a MEAT SHEPHERDS PIE and a 5" CHICKEN POT PIE. They can heat them up for you if you want to eat there but it's in a microwave. The pies didn't come out very hot either so we had them try a couple of times. I'm sure the pies would've been better piping hot, but being only lukewarm they were just ok. Of the two, I preferred the chicken pot pie but it wasn't anywhere near the best I've had. read more

This place has really good Pot Pies and Sausage Rolls. They have a great selection of fillings and sizes. You can heat it there or take for later. The pastry is perfect. I am a sucker for sausage rolls and this one is really good. It has lots of spice. We got a few salads from here. They dress the salads lightly and put a good mix of veg in them. The staff was super friendly. read more

I picked up a medium sized container of Curry Tortellini Salad and Wild Rice Salad along with a couple of Sausage rolls in flaky pastry. Curry Tortellini is to die for! Creamy, yummy, sweet with some crunch from the fruit and veggies inside. As for the Wild Rice, I didn't care for so much. It was a bit bland and ended up mixing it with the curry salad to make it more palatable. The girls behind the counter were very helpful. Only thing I would change is their NO CREDIT CARD policy. I went to all the neighboring vendors and everyone else accepted it. This set me back a bit as I had to hunt an ATM down before I could buy my goodies. That takes my 5* rating down to a 4*. Check out my pics. http://what2eatz.blogspot.com/2011/07/laurelles-fine-foods.html read more

There are a whole lot of food options to choose from on Granville Island. After passing by Laurelle's, what seemed like 3 or 4 times, I took the plunge and ordered the moussaka which was served in a microwaveable type of tray. Having never had this dish before, I did not know what to expect. Fortunately, it was very pleasant with a good mix of peppers, eggplant and beef. Seeing that the items that Laurelle's sells are all prepared for purchase already, the moussaka was somewhat less enjoyable having been microwaved. But it was a nice option to have while sitting outside in the sun watching the going ons of False Creek. I would recommend Laurelle's for its variety of entrees, pasta and baked goods that they serve. They would make for a good meal for a casual day on Granville. read more

Laurelle will take care of your breakfast, lunch or dinner needs during a visit to Granville Island.

I was shopping and eating at Granville Island and decided to go "all in" and get my sweet tooth on. There were so many delicious looking treats at Laurelle's it was hard to decide but I settled on the oatmeal chocolate chip cookie. It was really good and I liked the chocolate chunks in the cookie and the chocolate on top, too. I also brought home a sausage roll for my husband and he gave it "two thumbs up" - and it was a little spicy, just to his taste. I'll definitely stop here next time to get my sugar cravings satisfied. I really like tasty 'old school' baking with cookies, pies and squares - I'd take this over a fancy French pastry or macaron any day! read more

A quality "all kinds of yummy stuff" counter in Granville Island Public Market. I've been searching for the best cinnamon bun in Vancouver and I think I've found it! (they often have 3 kinds: walnut, raisin or apple). All of their cookies are THE BEST. And if they happen to have the lemon custard/cake pudding dessert when you pop by, get it! Or they'll make some for you if you pre-order. The staff are always friendly and so helpful and accommodating. They really care about pleasing their customers - such a rare thing these days. Laurelle's savoury items are also gold standard. Superb quality on all counts. read more

After reading a few reviews mentioning that they don't take credit cards, I figured I should provide and updated confirmation that they do indeed take credit cards as of the time I wrote this. In fact, I billed an oh-so delectable pasta penne salad for $2 on my credit card. I felt bad for doing this to them, as they were probably within their rights to require a minimum order for credit card purchases. Been there two times, both for lunch-salads billed by the 100/grams weight. Pasta salad was great; pad thai, not so much but still passable. Their selection is great and tastes pretty good, but appear to be on the high-end of the one-$-sign price spectrum. I'd consider them a good choice for picnic-fare, but not knockout-destination-worth-traveling-for-just-to-taste. read more
