I enjoyed the coffee and matcha latte from Thierry two days in a row during my 4 mile walk with my…read morepup at Ambleside Park. As a self-proclaimed coffee connoisseur, I could tell the latte was brewed using high-quality coffee beans, and my matcha latte had premium matcha powder. The dessert display was a treat for the senses. The decor was on point and elegant. The service was fast and the staff were friendly. They even offered a water bowl for my pup, and the patio was heated. I am planning to come back and enjoy my drinks again tomorrow.

We can also choose dark or milk. I chose whole milk chocolate version. Filling is male ganache. It was very smooth, rich texture and sweetness was perfect. Chocolate shell itself was thinner than I thought. This was a great FIFA world cup themed item and good for gift or for yourself to enjoy them.

The pastries here are so so good. It's hard to settle for just one! My favorite to order is the…read moredouble baked almond croissant. I find any of their vienese pastries never disappoint. They have quite a selection of other fancy petite cakes, tarts and cookie. The staff are very knowledgeable and courteous. They are patient when you feeling indecisive. My latest favorite is the lemon scroll. The ambiance is mostly take out since seating is limited at the Fir St location and there is no seating at their downtown bakery cafe. Coffee and tea selections available. Price is reasonable for the excellent quality and the generous size of some of their pastries. Their goodies sell out fast at the downtown location. They accept cash or cards depending on their location.

Curry fish ball focaccia was a very unique item. The focaccia dough had very chewy and soft texture, curry flavor was strong which I really liked. Fish ball was decent and surprisingly paired with this focaccia dough and gruyere cheese on top. I really liked this item. Egg tart was decent. Pastry dough was flaky and large, custard and sesame rice ball filling provided chewy mochi texture. I liked this item, too. They always offer very creative and unique flavor's combination. Especially Asian heritage month items were worth trying.

Lovely little bakery and cafe. Got a flat white with a peach and blueberry scone. The scone had…read moredistinct flavours, and was properly crusty-crumbly in the right places. The flat white was fairly standard. They don't have a washroom so plan accordingly. People are nice and friendly. Baked goods selection is huge! Prices are what prices are these days.

Why are the nurses screaming?! Well, we brought them a box of amazing pastries from L'atelier! The…read morepure joy echoing from behind the nurses station made our heart sing. They were showing each other the flavors, and shapes, and designs. Sweet plus savory. Cutting them in half and sharing. It was the least we could do to bring these high quality goodies, made by high quality bakers, to these high quality nurses in the cardiac unit for my mother-in-law. We were so impressed with the staff at L'atelier. They know their stuff and their recommendations are top notch. The bakery itself is so cute and modern and fun. I loved that you could sit outside even in the rain because they have stellar permanent awnings.

I ordered the 6 inch mango cake for my sister's birthday and it was absolutely worth it! The cake…read morewas light, fresh, and full of delicious mango flavour without being overly sweet. It was a huge hit with everyone! The 6 inch cake was $69 and I added a customized birthday message on chocolate for an extra $3 which was a nice personal touch. They also offer a gluten free option for an additional $10 which is great for accommodating different dietary needs. One thing to keep in mind is that you'll want to order online well in advance because their cakes sell out quickly. I can definitely see why. They're fantastic! I'll be ordering from Gary's Patisserie again for future celebrations.

Have seen Gary's fresh mango cakes all over IG and with my Dad's recent birthday I convinced my…read moresister to order one, instead of our usual mango cake from Saint Germaine bakery. Gary's only allows to order the fresh mango cakes up to one week ahead to ensure they have enough ripe mangos, which I admire their dedication. We ordered the 6 inch cake for 9 people (7 adults and 2 kids) and everyone got a thin to average slice. The cake is definitely prettier than the other fresh mango cakes on the market, has a lot more mangos that are perfectly ripe and sweet, there is less wipped cream, and the sponge cake is softer. The family agreed that Gary's has the best fresh mango cake but at $69 for a 6 inch cake, versus $43 for a 6 inch mango cake from Saint Germaine, a cake from Gary's is definitely a treat and for special occasions. Is Gary's worth the premium price? I think so but not everyone in my family agreed. One thing to note: Gary's do offer cake in a jar that's $8.50 each. When we went, they had a BOGO deal with the mango cake jars. My nephew asked my sister to buy the BOGO deal knowing that the 6 inch cake was not going to be enough, as the kids like having a second slice of cake.

Hell yeah. First time in Vancouver and we stumbled upon this place just near our Airbnb. Their…read moredonuts are sooooo good. I especially loved the cereal milk, it was crunchy from the cornflakes, soft and airy donut, and the cream wasn't heavy at all and tasted so much like cereal milk. Their matcha was pretty good too! It was smooth, creamy, & sweet, no notes of being grassy or astringent. We ended up coming back to try more. The pb&j donut was delicious tasted like a light airy uncrustable. The everything bagel was basically an everything bagel but airy light donut consistency but with more of a sweet and savory cream cheese taste. It's a big yes highly recommend for me!
