We stopped by twice on our trip to Mayne and I got to sample two muffins and two cookies....all were massive, tasty and a great value for the price. This place seems to be the heart of the community and everyone (local residents and tourists alike) who comes off the ferry seems to stop here...so be prepared for a mini-rush when the ferries get in. It was a very positive food experience and happy to recommend Sunny Mayne Bakery Cafe.

I will be the first to admit that Saturna is not a great place for the casual visitor. It does not have any public camp grounds and it is one of the smaller Gulf Islands with few places to go that aren't forest, park, or striking sand-stone cliffs. That being said, give it a try! The locals are friendly and the holiday home owners are lovely people (in my unbiased opinion). The island itself offers a lot as well, not the least of which is this bakery and the amazing things it pumps out. How do I describe the thrill of being able to walk into a bakery, pick out what you want, drop some money by the door and head on out. The reason why this experience is so novel is that there is rarely anyone else in the building. The bakery is attached to a farm and so I presume the owner is out working all day and doesn't really have time to deal with drop in customers. You can also get a lot of things at the general store and can even find the baker there many days. Now... what to buy. Where do I start... for me the nettle pasta tastes like home and is a rare local treat that I can never turn away, the chocolate chip cookies are legendary and my brother and I can crush a bag of them in under 2 hours, the spelt cookies are a perfect chewy treat, and the Butter and Mince Tarts are the perfect end to Christmas lunch (or any other meal for that matter). No matter what you get I promise you this, from that point on out, you will get cravings for it that nothing else will satisfy. I dream of Saturna chocolate chip cookies! So my advice to you: hop on a ferry, get to Saturna, find your way to the bakery and get something to go... before I eat it all!

Perfect Small Town Bakery [Chemainus BC]…read more The community of Chemainus has this great little bakery. It was a 12-min drive from where we were staying in Crofton. We came here twice -- Sunday (unfortunately, they are closed on weekends). Business hours posted on their window are Mon-Fri 7:00a to 5:00p so we came back on a Tuesday afternoon. The different pastries in the display case looked so pretty and inviting... they even have egg rolls! I tried their Coffee Cake w/ Crumble Topping... not too sweet, just delightful. I also had the Apple Fritter... mmm, scrumptious warm apple fritter. I also bought a loaf of butter crust bread to take home (husband looked at me funny). Service was A+. Seating available inside and outside their store for those who enjoy sunshine. Delicious pastries at very reasonable prices. Even better deal when I saw the conversion from CAD to USD on my bank statement. My loaf of bread was a little over $2 USD. Review #3156

I was disappointed in the apple fritter, as there was no apple in it. The coffee was pretty bad.read more

Great find in the cute little burg of Sidney. Fairly extensive selection of handmade pastries,…read morecookies and savory sandwiches. They even sell dog biscuits that are baked in-house. Everything looked tempting so we purchased a lot: a fig tapenade Brie sandwich (wonderful flavours, a little heavy on the bread and light on the cheese); a mango danish (delicate, crisp pastry strewn with baked mango chunks); a vegetarian pizza (cheesy and flavourful); and my favourite, an oatmeal fudge bar (like the one Starbucks used to sell, but with higher-quality ingredients and most importantly, more chocolate!). We also got a salad as a nod to nutrition, which was fresh, contained a surprising amount of bocconcini and came with a tasty vinaigrette - a little overpriced for the portion tho. Service was friendly and prompt. No seating inside, but there are a few benches outside where one can enjoy the treats if the weather's fine--and it was. 4.5

Located on the central high street core of Sidney, make this bakery one not to miss. I was lucky they had anything left, getting here at 3pm. Cause you know how it is when it comes to bakeries - the early bird gets the worm. The Cinnamon Bun was very good & the Chocolate Almond Brownie - sensational.

The ordering process was smooth but we sat, bussed, and served ourself which was fine.

It's not a good change at all, we have found some of the baked goods to be stale, found mold on the fruit buns and witnessed the short blond individual not using tongs while putting donuts out on the window display. That really turned us off, as everyone else used tongs. I can only assume is the related to the owners, plus we have noticed portions are smaller and some items looking not as fresh as before. The ambiance has changed and we miss the previous owners or parents that ran this bakery and enjoyed better goods in the past. It's sad when quality is gone.

All muffins were unmarked for price and we didn't see prices anywhere for the muffins. Also for five muffins and two almond puffs I was expecting to spend less than $42.23- that's an average of $6 (with tax) for each item which is pretty hefty. We enjoyed the almond puffs the most then the blackberry cobbler muffin- the rhubarb and white chocolate strawberry don't have much flavor but tasted sweet. The snickers and chocolate almond poppyseed were just too sweet for my tastes- the almond extract in the poppyseed muffin was overpowering. They do have a bathroom for customers, an area to sit and eat plus a bunch of wine and other items for sale. We got a punch card- 12 muffins purchased gives you a free muffin. Not sure if we will be back that way but figured we were almost halfway to getting that free muffin so why not!
