    Rightfully so, they are STUFFED!
    Natasza O.

    Service was pretty top notch when I went! Friendly, helpful, effective and understanding. I picked up a delicious hand pie... empanada. It was STUFFED! Absolutely delicious, the way an empanada oughtta be. Having the experience from another cafe, in Etobicoke be less than up to par re., their empanadas, Tori's bakeshop realy was stellar. I also had specifically gone to purchase a specialty choclate spread by these amazingly talented chocolatiers out of Quebec. So, so, so, so good. Easily consumable by the spoonful. I didnt stay, although the seats by the windows were occupied. They have a larger communal table upstairs as well for dine-in. Seems like a cozy spot in the Beaches Community to share a coffee/tea and a lil somethin' somethin' with a friend. To have an afternoon fly by while reading your favourite book, or to pump out those final paragraphs on an essay due. Either way Tori's Bakeshop has me sold!

    We picked up Some vegan goodies here. I was expecting the icing to be made from coconut cream, but I think it might be vegetable shortening. The cupcakes are a little dense, but the back Forrest one has some cherry filling, and a fresh cherry topping. Overall a good place to get something sweet.

    I would definitely give 5 stars 1 for the interiors 1 for coffee 1 for their baked goods variety 1 for the special 'kruffin' Lastly the customer service It was a pleasure from the time I entered and throughout it was very good including the ambience + food + service and most importantly neatness. They really maintain this place very well.. even when they are a bit empty The staff try and keep themselves busy and that's why they are the best cafe in the beaches Will come back here again sometime soon :)

    I first visited Tori's Bakeshop well before I was on Yelp. My dear friend, who is vegan, has meant to visit this store. I have a weakness for baked goods and desserts. I ended up dropping by this store in our old neighbourhood well before she did! The first time I was there, I ordered a six-pack of cupcakes. I remember losing myself in the lemon vanilla cupcakes. They were moist and yummy. They weren't overly sweet, which I appreciated. I also got chocolate ones. They were decadent. The next time I was there, it was summer. I tried the chocolate vegan ice cream. It was so creamy and fragrant with coconut in it. Yum! I took a photo on Instagram. To my delight, Tori's Bakeshop loved the photo so much that it reposted it on its feed. I also got the cream egg, which comes just in time for Easter. For those who are vegan or lactose-intolerant, this egg is even better than the regular Cadbury eggs that you get at the drug store. So good! I have also indulged in Tori's cinnamon bun. It's the perfect size to get your cinnamon sweet fix. There is nothing at this store that I don't like. Staff are helpful in letting you know what's available and the ingredients that are in their products. The quality of their goodies are stellar. I love this place. Prices are more expensive than typical bakeries. So, be prepared to pay a little more for quality baked goods. This store also has sandwiches and beverages. It's definitely more than just dessert. Parking can get hectic. I have been lucky to get parking right outside the store. There are plenty of side streets, so you're good. (99)

    Contrary to all the positive reviews here. I would like to give this place the lowest rating allowed by Yelp. The good reviews can be attributed to the special dietary restrictions that this place offers i.e. dairy free etc. but the way items are stored here I would suggest people stay away. The desserts though look good in the display area were surrounded by bugs/fruit flies and even though we pointed it out to the sales person there was disdain and so what attitude! seriously I am OK with gluten free/dairy free or whatever else the tree huggers, hipsters are into these days but I don't want my proteins from bugs! At least not till its absolutely necessary. I am sure their fans will keep them busy but I will not be back. Coffee drinks we tried were OK.

    The regular cupcake is on the left and the gluten free one is on the right.

    Who knew organic, gluten free, vegan food could taste oh so delicious? Now don't get me wrong, I'm a die hard carnivore that also loves her carbs; but I'm also a foodie adventurer who is willing try anything once. Tori's Bakeshop had great reviews, high ratings AND is located in the picturesque Beaches neighborhood. What clinched it for me was watching Tori's video on her website (http://torisbakeshop.ca/about.html); the passion she and her staff share about food and the business is amazing! Such an adorable eatery with flowerboxes out front, two comfortable tables with a bay window, tables for twosies along the wall and a small loft where you can people watch. All the desserts look tempting and the food very appealing. My friend and I chose the following: - "B"LT sandwich with hickory smoked "bacon" (coconut flakes), lettuce, tomato and house mayo on organic whole grain bread. Great flavor! - Falafel + grilled veggie sandwich with an herbed chickpea falafel, grilled eggplant, grilled zucchini on an organic flat bread. Good but I liked the BLT better. - Cruffin which is croissant dough rolled in butter and sugar baked in a muffin tin, filled with decadent chocolate fudge and topped with cream cheese frosting. It tastes as good as it sounds: easily my favorite dessert of the day! - One regular and one gluten free cookies and cream cupcake. There is a difference in taste and texture if you try them side by side but they both would satisfy a sweet tooth. When it comes down to taste, I definitely preferred the regular cupcake; however, the gluten free cupcake was just as moist and light as the regular one. - Cinnamon roll - it was ok, pretty big in size. It's good to know that eating healthy can still be very tasty.

    this was the breakfast sandwich aka croquet in 2016. greatly reduced in fillings and quality since then.
    Signe L.

    In 2016, I would've given Tori's 5 stars -- the paté with sauerkraut sandwich was delicious and had lettuce, pickle, sauerkraut, mustard and plenty of paté. this year, we had our latest sandwich and there was no pickle, the mustard was so skimpy that I wasn't sure if it was really there, and the dry-ish bread made up the bulk of the sandwich instead of the filling. the croque last summer every time was exceptional with melt-in-your-mouth GF bread, a soft faux-egg, fried greens, fried onions and avocado. it was loaded! this summer we tried it twice, once at both locations. both times the bread was dry and chewy and there was only the faux-egg with about 1/2 tsp of avocado spread on the bread so you'd easily miss it. so disappointing. We asked what the soup was at the beaches location after driving there only to be told "we've been out of soup for 2 days". my immediate thought was, "well, do you have a pot?". I mean, 3 sad-looking sandwiches in the case and no soup? The awesome grilled veg tapenade sandwich is gone, as is the tempeh mock tuna which turned me on to Tori's in the first place. The less clean, utterly predictable faux-BLT remains, but it's not something I would get again. There's no online menu, no in-store flyer menu and they serve 3 different sandwiches at the Canary location (with seemingly embarrassed staff apologizing for the slim pickings) and 4 sandwiches at the beaches location (unless they run out, because they can't make more). Such a great concept, I'd love to see Tori's succeed with the items that made me love them in the first place, and by having proper materials out so consumers can see what they offer. Pics of sweets on their website are not enough. Spending hours trying to find out when the canary location would open and what the correct times + days were should not be a hassle for the customer, but it took me hours. At this point I would not return, which is too bad since I've gone 10+ times within 2 weeks this summer and last, and my gf came from California specifically looking forward to Tori's, even taking my mom there once. Now she's as jaded as I am. I've referred many customers, but I can no longer do that unless things change. update: the owner told me that they now make the bread off-site and have it delivered to the 2 locations. This explains why the freshness is gone. They've expanded aster than quality control could keep up.

    One cupcake didn't make it home
    Diana C.

    Take out Cupcakes review, 3 flavors, 6 cupcakes. Once ambience is isolated and it's just the cupcake, I found the cupcake didn't stand up to the hype. Please note I really like the cafe, organic food concept and am sure all baked goods are made here lovingly and all with superior natural ingredients. But if you are simply looking for a good cupcake fix and and non vegan then this place is ok and more pricey than Prairie Girl/Bobette & Belle for examples. 5* on presentation, a mini donut on a cupcakes?! YES please! A rainbow swirl of icing as if this cupcake was made for a unicorn, WOW I gotta have it or 6 of it... 3* The cake itself is very moist but not as light as a typical cupcake, almost had the weight and texture of a pound cake at Starbucks 2.5* Frosting. This is my make or break decision. I know it's vegan, and I love how close it came but my bias taste is for buttercream, and Italian or Swiss meringue butter cream at that. So based on this, you let me down cupcake. I ate all 5..but my heart and stomach was not satisfied

    Cupcake with donut topper and cinnamon roll
    Dawn V.

    Oh my my.... This place was on my list of destinations while in town and it was totally worth the drive to the beaches area! (Plus we got to see a lot of cool stuff in this neighborhood which we might have missed if Tori's hadn't caught my eye on Yelp!) All vegan and all amazing! Cutest cupcakes with mini donut toppers, both so moist and delicious... And the cinnamon roll was the best we've ever had! Really, not to missed, also is the sandwich! They make the crumpet and ours was stuffed with tofu scramble, cartelized onions, greens... So good! Cute and friendly staff too!

    Yummy and gluten free!
    Denise P.

    Tori's interior was so peaceful, and their staff so inviting! I took a bite of their mixed berry vegan cupcake and fell in love instantly. The berry compote inside was also a lovely surprise. I was so impressed I bought another one (and a grapefruit cupcake) home!

    What a gem! This bakery is tucked into the southeast corner…read moreof Yonge & College, and walking inside feels like stepping straight into Japan. The pastries and mochi breads are absolutely exquisite! I tried the black sesame mochi bread--light, pillowy, and filled with a delightful little white mochi surprise. The crème brûlée almond tart was incredible too, with its thick, eggy custard and a blueberry-almond center. And the Hitotoki matcha tart? Gorgeous and just perfect. It was my first visit, and I discovered the bakery through their 2nd-anniversary IG post. I bought about $20 worth of treats and got to spin their prize wheel--and I actually won the Grand Prize: a limited-edition gold Nespresso & milk frother kit! I literally jumped for joy. Yet another reason to love this incredible bakery!

    It was okay. Tried three items:…read more Matcha Lava Tart - The staff said this had the strongest matcha flavour among their matcha items. But there was no "lava" at all... just a layer of cream sitting on a thick tart base. You do get some matcha flavour, but definitely not that rich and flowing matcha sauce I saw in those online reels. Matcha Mont Blanc - Too sweet. The green noodle-shaped topping is actually made from a kind of bean paste - not much matcha taste, but had a strong bean flavour instead. And again, it was too sweet to my liking. Taro Tart - This one was good. Taro-flavoured cream on top, with taro paste underneath, then a layer of custard with mochi at the bottom. Had a rich taro flavour. Still a bit sweet, but not as overwhelming as the Mont Blanc. Overall it was not bad, although TBH I haven't really found great matcha desserts in Toronto so far.

My wife always judges a French Cafe by their Butter Croissant ($3.00) and she liked it! She also noticed all the  staff speak French sp it gives it even more legitimacy.  She also ordered a Flat White ($4.50) which was also good. I ordered a Plum Almond Tart ($7.25) because it was the prettiest. It was super delicious so it was definitely a good choice! Service was courteous and friendly. You place your order at the counter and bring it to your table. Someone will come around to clear the dishes when you are done It is a great place to have a nice casual time eating and socializing. They make all their food in-house in the basement. There are products for sale such as coffee beans, fruit syrup, maple syrup, smoked sauces, olive oil, scented soap, wine glassware, etc. I will definitely come back again to try other items. There is free WiFi. The neo-bisto is not wheelchair accessible since there are stairs leading up to the entrance. There are two gender-neutral washrooms. There is free street parking on their one-way south-bound street. Review 2023-017

    Amazing place! I…read morecalled ahead to find out if they had this plum tart I purchased the first time I was there. Yet no one answered the phone. No problem. Hopped on my bike and a half hour later I was there. The friendly staff helped me by answering my question regarding eggs and which items did not have any in the recipes. This place was also super poppin' when I got there. It was earlish in the day around 10:30am and it seemed all the tables were pretty much taken. They are adding a dinner menu which is very exciting. Their pastries are phenomenal!!! Picked up a plum and pistachio tart, a chocolate mousse cake and an apple Danish for my mom. Plus a chocolate caramelized croissant. So much butter, and yet so good. Brought my container, which they happily used. The last time I visited this spot back in 2022, I vowed I would come back and take up space in that beautiful bay window seat. Yet I haven't followed through with that yet. One day. They also changed the name, since I was there last it was called Le Conciliabule Lab. Le Conciliabule means, "speak easy", as their website says. It was used back in the day to describe a place where people would come together and talk about everything and nothing. I can definitely say that happens here. What a beautiful concept, "everything and nothing". Now named Bisou, which means kiss. That's actually really simple and sweet. Since every pastry and any food item or beverage enjoyed here is a kiss for your tastebuds. Love it. Keep going team. You are amazing!
