People have oft compared me to a pie crust: "flakey." But I know a special place when I see one, and Wanda's is it. Wanda's opened this cafe--now an institution in Kensington Market--in 2007, but it was previously located in Yorkville and on Mt Pleasant Road. But Kensington is really where Wanda really shines. The patio on Augusta is the perfect place for pie and people watching. And naturally, the pies are divine, available in various sizes and featuring fresh, seasonal fruits. But there's other cafe fare on offer, such as a variety of grilled cheese sandwiches, or vegetarian pizza and strata, salads and egg tarts. Even fresh watermelon juice. It's all good my friend. So if you were ever wondering about Wanda, wonder no more and wander in :) read more

The banana cream pie USED TO BE sooooo good. Fresh banana custard filling with actual fresh banana slices Now? Might as well have McCain's Deep and Delicious frozen pie. Sysco-worthy bland chemical 'Banana' flavoured goop. No fresh bananas to be found and one banana chip garnish. Such a shame... my last visit after 25 years of good pie has come to an end... read more

I used to frequent this place because of how good their Coconut Cream Pie was. After a long time of not coming here, I returned to try a slice of this same pie and was very disappointed. The pie was not fresh - the crust was rock hard and the custard filling tasted off and sour. The topping is also very dense and whipped cream-heavy with an underwhelming coconut taste. Paying for an extremely, overpriced piece of bland, dry pie is not worth coming back for. Good service is non-existent here since staff especially the cashiers tends to show unwelcoming and arrogant attitude. It's just too bad as this used to be my fave spots in Kensington Market and now will no longer be patronizing this place. read more

This bakery in the Kensington Market area in Toronto Ontario Canada specializes in a nice selection of pies. They also offer cakes, tarts, home-cooked vegetarian comfort foods, pizza croissants, soups, quiche, salad, coffee and drinks. They also have vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free choices. The labels in the pie refrigerator need to display the price and some labels need to be replaced. I had a slice of the Peanut Butter Chocolate Pie around $8. It was delicious. Counter service was fine. The place is very cute and quirky. read more

Really amazing pies and coffee! The stuff was really nice and served us quickly. The restaurant itself is so fun. Bright and clean with lots of seating. It's a great area to sit outside, eat pie, and do some people watching. read more

I stopped in here for a little sampling of some of their mini pies, which were reasonably priced and such a great variety. My only lesson learned is that I think you're better off with the full size pies for any fruit variety for a better dough to filling ratio. But the creme, meringue or comparable options are great in the mini versions! The staff was very nice as well. read more

I'm on a mission to find THE best coconut cream pie in Toronto. My obsession for coconut cream pie only started this year when I had a slice from a regular Swiss Chalet and loved the creamy texture and strong coconut flavour of the dessert. And so, top of myy list was Wanda's Pie in the Sky! I ordered a coconut cream pie to go to enjoy it outdoors and I found that the coconut flavour wasn't as strong and pungent as I would've liked. Still, a nice dessert and also not too sweet. I will totally return to try their other pies. read more

I was around the area in Kensington market and decided to grab a slice of Peach Pie at Wanda's Pie in the Sky. The store had a really cozy vibe and I loved the ambiance of it. The service itself was quite normal. I just went up to the counter bought my pie and they warmed it up for me. The pie itself was 8$ for a slice and personally I found it too tart and sour for my taste. And I think it is too expensive for a small slice of pie. I personally wouldn't come back again for the peach pies. read more

My gf knew I really liked lemon meringue and key lime pie so for my bday she researched to find a place and found this place which happens to specializes in pies. I took a look on the website beforehand and the pictures looked BUENO (thank God they have pictures too). We stopped by after filling our tummies with some goodies over at St Lawrence Market, while making sure to leave enough room. So did it live up to the hype? The lemon meringue pie? Not so much. The key lime pie? ABSOLUTELY. Wow. Will DEFINITELY be coming back for more key lime pie. Amazing pie slice. The lemon meringue slice, while the curd was tasty, it could've used less thickener imo. The meringue I could tell had been sitting maybe a lil too long cuz it was already leaking a slight bit of water. I think my mom can make a comparable lemon meringue (possibly even a better one). I do want to come back though. The peach melba sounds incredible. I also saw someone get an apple crumble slice and it looked really good too so I want to try apple crumble as well. They should provide an ice cream scoop add-on option for some of their pie slices (maybe not during winter but during summer!) We got a cup of hot apple cider to wash everything down. It was ok. Definitely not as good as the apple cider we had at Applewood Farms over in Stouffville, but that's to be expected I guess. 100% coming back. I don't think any key lime pie I've had comes close! read more

Been pinned for many years and finally tried it in 2025. Don't love fruits pies so this is just a review about the cream pie. The coconut pie had layers of pudding/custard and cream on top, very different than what I've had before. The banana pie was similar to the coconut with the pudding/custard layer but it wasn't was thick. Both crust didn't have a butter taste, maybe butter wasn't used? Idk? Definitely would need to come back for a fruit pie and the key lime. read more

It's truly a gem in Kensington Market with many variety of flavorful pies, cookies, cakes, desserts and vegetarian food options. I really like the vibe in here; it's cozy and warm and feels like a home. The staff are very friendly that positively contributes to the vibe. I always get confused when I want to order here, cause everything looks delicious here. This time, we ordered carrot cake slices and they were delicious. I would definitely recommend. read more

What a treat! I've heard of Wanda's pie in the sky but this was my first visit. Lots of options to choose from for pies and even a few cakes plus baked goodies including some savoury options and salads. I ordered a decaf iced latte and a slice of key lime pie. When the barista was making my latte she accidentally made it hot but it was a scorching 30° outside and she was so nice about the accident and made me a new one that was iced. She was genuinely so kind about it and even let my friend enjoy the hot one she prepared on the house which we really appreciated. My friend had the tabouleh salad and a slice of the strawberry rhubarb pie. She said both were good! It's a great spot with a lot of character. I'm looking forward to going back to try more! read more

Wanda's Pie In The Sky - Bakeries Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Located on the edge of Kensington Market on Augusta, Wanda's Pie in the Sky has been said to have one of the best pie, cheesecake, and cake slices in Toronto. So, I decided to give them a try by purchasing a small Wild Blueberry Pie to go. The bonus of bringing the pie home was that I got to heat it up in the oven prior too eating it. The pie was delicious. The blueberry filling wasn't overly sweet, or sour, and the crust has just the right amount of flakiness, and very good flavour. The pies here all have a homemade feel to them, and some other flavours available are: - Coconut Cream - Pecan - Apple crumble - Chocolate pecan - Banana Cream - Strawberry Rhubarb - Key Lime Aside from pastries, the establishment also serves lunch items such as sandwiches, soups, pizza, and have a solid café menu. The interior has an antique feel, with aqua painted walls covered with art from local artists, and posters and ads for local businesses, and events. Cozy seating is available indoors, in addition to a patio space outside for warmer months. The service here is considered average in my opinion. read more

Picked up two slices to try: the carrot cake and key lime pie. Pie slices are $7.75 and cake slices $8. Both cakes were generous, tasty, and very solid home made versions of these classics. I think the cozy and warm interior really adds to this place. Though we bought our slices to go, there is plenty of seating and I imagine this would be a great spot to catch up with friends or read a book with a tea and a slice. Next time I'll try the pecan pie or coconut cream pie. Service was quick and friendly. read more

Wanda's Pie In The Sky - Carrot cake, key lime pie - Bakeries Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

I called in to see if there were any pies left at the end of the day. The owner answered the call and was incredibly rude when I asked if the pies were still fresh or day old. What unfolded verbally was absolutely insane to me, the level of hostility, anger, and aggression (and he even slammed the phone down after shouting at me). I'm all about supporting small business, but not terrible business owners. No customer deserves to be verbally assaulted like that. It honestly did not take much to set him off. There's far better bakeries to spend your $ at. I would avoid this place altogether. read more

Amazing pie for thanksgiving!! Bought the pumpkin and it tasted fabulous!! Will definitely get it again!

I couldn't stop thinking about their delicious blueberry danishes so I had to come back to Wanda's Pie in the Sky! Fast service and place wasn't busy in early afternoon. The danish was so good and even better when heated up after kept in the fridge. $5 Highly recommend! read more

A staple in the Kensington market that specializes in (you guessed it) pies. They're a rather famous establishment known for their pecan, strawberry, chocolate, coconut pies. Today I came to try something less well known, only because its not in their name: their cheesecakes. Blueberry cheesecake - A classic cheesecake, with a heavy cheese filing. Not as heavy or dense as a traditional NY style cheesecake, but not as light as a Japanese cheesecake (closer to NY style more tho). The crust was amazing, as should be expected from a pie store. The jam on top was excellent, the fruity sweetness complimented the creaminess of the cheesecake. This was coupled with the butter and crunch from the crust, delicious! Mango cheesecake - the cake had the same cheesecake base as the blueberry, but had a mango mousse on top. The mousse lacked the fruity flavour as would have been expected from a jam. I don't think the flavours mashed as well as the blueberry cheesecake and so I would not recommend this cake. Great bakery, and nice if you want to head over just to grab a slice or get an entire pie for a party. I would highly recommend! The staff was also nice and helpful. read more

We stopped by after Ed asking about good bakeries to visit for breakfast. This happened to be the day before Canadian Thanksgiving and the line was relatively short. By the time we got our quiche and coffee, the line was out the door and around the corner. We left with three pies: Apple, strawberry rhubarb and chocolate pecan. All were amazing! read more

Wanda's Pie In The Sky - Lemon merengue - Bakeries Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

At the heart of Kensington market is Wanda's pie in the sky, a quirky and unique establishment that blends into the hop and trendy environment around it whilst also making its mark. Whilst the interior seems a little old and worn, it adds to the charm of this place serving up homestyle treats and pies with atleast one that will be sure to be to your taste. Staff are friendly and keen to give you recommendations, but make sure you ask them to warm up your pie as the first time I received it, it was stone cold. We opted for a slice of the classic Ontario sour cherry, one slice of the apple crumble and one cappuccino. The pie, once warm, was super tasty with just the right amount of sweetness to tartness. And the cappuccino was the perfect pairing with it. It was a little pricey, however the pie is good and doesn't disappoint! read more

Very good pies. The crust could use a wee bit of salt but otherwise is so good. Def a fun place to sit with friends and your dog. read more

I don't even know where to start on this one. My visit to this place was REALLY disappointing. I stopped in to grab some pies before returning to New York City. I had read about this on several lists of food options in the Kensington Market Area. I walked in just as a customer had finished paying for their items so essentially I became the first person on line. I thought things would go quickly but as the minutes ticked by and a line formed behind me, I realized none of the FIVE (5) people behind the counter were going to acknowledge the line of people forming. Consider the fact that I stand at 6'4 and I was wearing a red shirt. Being at the head of the line I decided it was up to me to address the lack of situational awareness. I asked a gentleman if there was anyone assisting customers at the register. He said he would help but his body language was lackluster and he didn't move with urgency. On top of that, I had to repeat my order for three (3) individual slices to him. I paid with cash, which they didn't have change for and went on my way. (I had to apologize to a friend that was waiting for me in the car). Imagine my deep dismay when I opened one of the pie containers and immediately spotted MOLD on the pie slice (See pictures). I could not believe it. I replayed the events in my head and remember the gentleman replacing a display slice after packaging my slices. Could he have placed a display slice into my cartons by accident? The New Yorker in me can think of an even worse scenario but ethically I can't describe that scenario because I don't have any proof. All I can say, with definitive proof is that the service was unacceptably slow considering that amount of staff at hand. In addition the food (pies at least) are not safe to eat. I'm hoping to revisit Toronto soon. I'll be passing by again to see if this was an aberration or a symptom of deep problems at this establishment. If you visit, "May the odds be ever in your favor." read more

I finally got to eat Wanda's pie... but it was at a table, not in the sky. I had previously given this place a bad review because let's face it, when they are out of pie they close and I couldn't seem to catch them when they were open. The pie is so good... Well, get there early. My experience was delicious pie, friendly a really groovy location. Love everything about it! I'm very glad I got to update this review. read more

This place has seen me at my peaks and valleys. I do not eat many pies but these pies are definitely giving pie.

Lemon meringue pie was a good combination of really light meringue, rich (yet still slightly tart) lemon curd and a base that was pretty firm (though parts were a bit mushy - I bought it late in the day) Key lime & Coconut cream pies both had light, fresh cream. Key lime had a crumbly base which had no body - I'm not a fan. Coconut cream had a crisp firm base which was good (much firmer and crisper than other pies so YMMV). Coconut had a mild flavour; lime wasn't too strong. Both had bits of fruit. read more

Purchased the pecan pie and served it to guests at dinner. Everyone was extremely disappointed as the filling texture was curdled. We discussed the reason and came to the conclusion that eggs were added while the liquid was hot and henced "scrambled". I called Wanda's Pie in the Sky the next day to explain the reason why I was returning the pie. I was told that they would refund me. When I went to the shop, I was told no refund will be given and to wait for a response from them. It has been 4 days and no response. Am extremely disappointed with the quality of the product and the lack of customer service. I purchased it based on its reputation. I definitely will not be going back. read more

I had read about this place online and it is by Kensington Market. You can get either sliced or whole pies. There are both large and smaller sized whole pies too. I got the sour cherry per the recommendation of the staff. It is definitely tart, and the filling is jelly like. I wish the pastry is more fluffy, it tasted much dense and thick than I preferred. They also use almond extract in the pie so it was definitely not expected. There are tons of seating inside the little shop as well. read more

Wanda's Pie in the Sky is a vegetarian cafe that specializes in pies and daily savoury items such as salads, sandwiches, and quiches. Their quiche is quite good. It's best to come in the morning because it's usually sold out by noon or early afternoon. The salads rotate daily. Their noodle salad with vegs (spinach, bell peppers, onion) & slivered almonds is alright - it has a refreshing taste that's not overly dressed, and I like crunch. The beans / chickpeas salad is pretty good. There are a few bench-style seatings inside, and a small patio in the front. Service is always nice and friendly. read more

I am so glad my friend got me to go to Wanda's. Mouth watering savoury pies, tempting sweet pies, and coffee or tea makes for a perfect pairing. Don't get misled, Wanda's is so much more than pies; they also serve soups, sandwiches, pizza, and even pierogies. WE TRIED: - Eggs Wanda - croissant pastry with mushroom, spinach in a bechamel sauce topped with a poached egg and cheese. Perfect all-in-one breakfast item OH YEAH! - Monkey bread (also called monkey puzzle bread, sticky bread, Hungarian coffee cake, golden crown, pinch-me cake, and pluck-it cake) - warm, sticky and sweet: a carbivore's dream come true! - Mulled apple cider - the barista offered us a free sample. They take apple cider to new heights by adding their own blend of spices (cloves, cinnamon and ginger). The resultant brew was full-flavored, rich and very soothing for a cold day. We sat outside in their roomy outdoor patio and had a relaxing and very enjoyable lunch. Homey atmosphere, warm staff and appetizing food guarantees a return visit. read more

If you find yourself in Keningston Market and are craving something sweet and delicious, look no further than Wandas! This place is a staple and so good! It's bigger than most places in the area so you can definitely have a sit down there to eat and relax. It's a place for a huge variety of different pies and cakes as well as some savoury food options. Everything is very fresh here. The one thing is that if you buy something you should eat it quickly as it can go stale pretty quick. read more

Wanda shoots for the moon and comes pretty close. On our 1st visit we indulged in the banana creme pie.
