It's not crumbly and not oily. They got the cream cheese icing right. This is no small feat considering all the other cakes in Barrie that I've tried. Walking into the store is a treat, because there are so many quality baked goods in there. I consider myself a baker, but I could learn a thing or two from the Lemon Tree bakers. 5 stars for fulfilling my carrot cake wish.

I went for the chicken sandwich. It was really good, but I wish it had a bit more meat/toppings for the price. Don't get me wrong it was delicious and I will be back. Just next time I would see the cost of adding another layer of meat. The service was quick and the dining room had lots of tables. All in all a great spot for Italian fast food and groceries.

If only I could give a negative star rating. I've supported Homestead Bakery for a long time, but…read moretoday's experience was deeply disappointing and showed a complete disregard for fairness and customer integrity. I called ahead to ask if they could hold a sourdough loaf. I was told they had six left, it was "fairly slow," but no holds--first come, first serve. Fair enough. I made the trip over and stood in line, only to watch the customer in front of me get the last loaf. She mentioned she was also told the same thing over the phone. Again, I accepted that--she was ahead of me. Then the real issue: behind the counter was a bag clearly labeled "Alex" with loaves being held--despite their "no holds" policy. When questioned, the staff admitted they were reserving them for a "long-time customer." So the rules apparently only apply to some people. That's not just bad business--that's unethical.

Loved it!!

Everything else we had was great and worth the price!

OH! WOW!! is all I can say after tasting Chef Dimu's Macarons, Chocolates and Donuts!!…read more I had never had a Macaron before. After seeing a review and it showed pictures of Macarons, I had to stop in and try one, especially a Raspberry Macaroon. I'm so glad that I did. I was totally surprised when Chef Dimu was so very kind enough to give me samples of his baking. It was out of this world. I was given a Lemon Donut (with a hole) and when I bit into it I was totally surprised to find that it had been filled with a Lemon Curd!! Blew my mind!! Highly recommend!!

My Mom was quite particular in wanting a lemon cake, not too heavy but just perfectly sweet. It was as ordered. In addition to the cake were these wonderful tarts that allowed for the guests to choose. =The cake when on the plate looked like you would never be able to get through a piece because it was so rich but that was not the case. I also loved the lemon taste, as lemon can so many times be too tart or too bland - it was just right! Highly recommended!

This place is amazing. I didn't know it existed until very recently, and now it will likely become…read morea staple on my way through Barrie. Their doughnuts are great, and baked in house right away. This means that if you're waiting for something at opening, you may have to wait a few extra minutes. For examples, their dipped donut holes were the last thing to come out when I was there. And, their dipped doughnut holes are the way to go, if you want a box with a variety of flavours. You could eat one of their four dollar doughnuts, and if you do - have the strawberry cream - but each of them is the size of two or three doughnuts from any other place. This isn't a four dollar doughnut that leaves you feeling empty, it's a four dollar doughnut that leaves you wondering how you're possibly going to finish eating it! But, the doughnut holes, the dipped ones, they're amazing. They're the right size to eat a variety, and not feel overfull. The thing that terrifies me is they have so many savory options, too. How am I supposed to eat everything I want? I'll need to make a number of return trips. And, they're dairy free. Which is great for allergies, and lifestyle choices. Love it. Love it. Love it!

They also serve different types of Afternoon Tea. They also sell breads like Sour Dough ($12.00) and French Baguette ($4.50) for takeout. We ordered the following: 1. Nutella Croissant ($6.95). 2. Flat White (small $4.95). They charge the normal 13% HST, but there is an extra 3% resort fee! Both the croissant and coffee were good. The service was good. Some people make reservations for their favourite tables. They certainly make sure every is clean and chairs aligned. Four of us were sitting around a very small round table, so I put my camera case and bag on top of a neighbouring table (they were only 20% full). My wife told me they were staring at me. After I took it off and put them on the floor under my seat, they cleaned the table; must clean off any dirt I might have on my stuff! They have been open for 3 years. They allow photos using a phone but not a DSLR. They said they would charge $250 for me to take photos. One staff member recommended I speak to the owner. The owner was concerned that I take photos of his prices: this makes not sense since I can also do it with my phone! He finally allowed me to take photos of just the food, and he asked the staff to take it out for me onto a table! I was thankful! There is indoor and outdoor seating. There is free WiFi. The patisserie is wheelchair accessible. There is one gender-neutral washroom. There is free parking in the resort. There are two high chairs for little children. Review 2024-203

Full Tea for 2 ($65) includes: Tea, savory mini sandwiches, assorted sweets, whipped cream, assorted fruits. ** They didn't have mini sandwiches, but we got to choose a hot pressed sandwich from the bakery display, and they sliced it for us ^^ I'd also recommend: * Lychee Green Tea (teapot) * Roast Beef Mushroom Melt * Brie, Arugula, Prosciutto Be sure to make a reservation via phone for afternoon tea experience. Good for small groups of 2-3 people :) Limited indoor seating, outdoor patio also available. I personally think the afternoon tea experience is still very new, still need to work out some kinks. Overall, food was delicious, and my family had a lovely time together :)
