The staff are super friendly and the food is delicious! I went with a group to carry things back for the family, and I'm convinced the only thing we didn't take was the bakery with us :) Things we got: date, key lime & strawberry squares, cinnamon buns, lemon blueberry danishes, chubby bunnies, bourbon tarts, a chicken pot pie, and a cherry pie. For a family that has egg allergies, gluten & dairy intolerance, everyone enjoyed the food. The only constructive criticism I'd give is maybe that the sucrose could be a bit less? However, overall, we enjoyed ghe food and will absolutely be back :)

Extremely disappointed in our experience today. The display case was bare, yet the macarons and tiger cake we purchased were all rock hard and very stale. When you’re paying such a premium for a gluten free item, the bare minimum is the product isn’t stale. Every item we bought smelled of refrigerator and not of anything remotely like the product it was advertised as. Whisked is monopolizing on the very small gluten free market and selling people stale items at an unfair markup considering the poor quality.

Stumbled upon this place as we were visiting the area from Toronto. I loved that everything was GF. A lot of dairy free options as well! The food was fresh, minimal ingredients and my stomach felt great after. We tried the breakfast platter, London fog latte, and a few DF/GF pastries that were delicious! Highly recommend the crème brûlée! I haven’t had one since my gluten/dairy intolerance and I was in heaven! I purchased a few more for the road. They also had a Mother’s Day high tea which was so cool because I haven’t found a gluten free high tea place in Toronto. We hope to be back next time we are in the area and would love to try high tea.

Winnie’s is the best! As someone who doesn’t necessarily need gluten free options, I would still choose to eat here. The food is so delicious you don’t even notice it’s gluten free. My husband feels the same and he is a tough critic! They do have dairy free options as well which is great for me. From sweet to savory they have it all. I even got an amazing cake made for Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour in Toronto that was not only delicious but so cute and fun!

R Steinb

Best place to go for gluten free food! Totally recommended! Wish there would be one store in Toronto! Susie is amazing!!!

Megan Edwards

Their gluten-free brownies are the best I’ve had. Super rich and fudgy without being too sweet.

Brianna Wilson

I absolutely LOVE this bakery! Truly a celiac heaven - I've been back twice since going with my partner because I was so happy with the experience. I recommend the beef patties, anything by Riz, eclairs, crullers, and my friend loved the samosa (he's not even GF)! Absolutely worth a long browse through their market, freezers and fresh bakes.

Spencer Clerk

Great food, really friendly and welcoming service. I feel very safe and at ease bringing my celiac mother here, as well. It’s such good peace of mind to be able to trust that a place can serve celiac friendly food.

BRMinute Taker

The best gluten free food for my Celiac daughter! Super welcoming and clean. Like being in Italy!

Humza Shah

Absolutely amazing pastries! 100% gluten free, plenty of vegan options as well. Customer service was incredible. I will definitely be coming back for more!

Stephanie v

Second time coming to Gold Standard Bakery, & we will be coming back every time! I’ve told so many people with a gluten intolerance or with celiac about this place because everything is so good! The owner is incredibly helpful & proud of all his products sold as he should be! Everything is so good! And if you eat gluten free you know a lot is not or every small portions. Everything here is full, regular size with a great taste! Don’t be fooled by the industrial office look it’s not your typical looking bakery, but you can walk in to make your purchase !

Brianne Morris

I was THRILLED when I stumbled across this bakery today. I couldn’t believe my eyes! A gluten free bakery! I got three cupcakes, two butter tarts, and an apple crisp, and everything was absolutely 10/10. The texture of the cupcakes was AMAZING— absolutely blown away. Thank you!!!!!

Käyła

They have an amazing and delicious selection of items all made in house. Very sweet and welcoming workers. The best part they’re all gluten free for good pricing!! Highly recommend!

Canada Eagle

Good stuff! Fresh gluten free delicious picks ❤️

Rachel Commodore

Best gluten free bread in Toronto. They are so lovely there. And again the best bread the crust has a beautiful crunch and soft and amazing flavour full on the inside.

Andrea Adam

What a treat. I live gluten-free and to be able to feed a little urge for classics like baked goods or a chicken pot pie is just wonderful. And they are sooo friendly ☺️

Mel Hare

Fantastic! Great cupcakes and the brownies are delish!

Maxine G

Jeff, one of the owners, is super friendly and knowledgeable about all things Gluten-free. Family-owned business. My favorite is their freshly baked bread.

Becca

As someone with Celiac, I have learned it is hard to find good tasting gluten free treats! These were amazing and the frozen meals are good too! Love it! New Fav spot to pick up stuff!

Hafsa

Nice atmosphere and service, but inedible gluten free pastries. As someone who has tried the majority of gluten free bakeries in Toronto and countless storebought goods, it’s ludicrous that this bakery is charging $5.93 for a single black forest cupcake. The cupcake had a weird texture, it was like munching on uncooked quinoa in between cake crumb. The frosting was overwhelmingly sweet and not creamy at all. I’ve had plenty of good vegan frosting at other bakeries—this was not it. There was very little cherry filling and it should have been a jam-like consistency, instead I think they just soaked dried cherries in sugar syrup. Not to mention the black forest cupcake is a “seasonal” flavor which is how the bakery justifies an extra $0.75 surcharge. Last I checked, dried cherries are available year-round so I’m confused and you should be too.

Jennifer Lau

Nice to have a "safe" bakery in the community. Treats are tasty and not super sweet or dry like most gluten free desserts. Frozen items available to take home as well. Wish they would do fresh breads as I would be all over that! They prefer cash or debit. Surcharge with credit card purchase.

Pam

I’m annoyed enough to write this review because I just spent $25 on food that went into the garbage. After hearing good things I thought I would try them out. I got a gluten free muffin which was dry and mealy with over sugared icing. We got a couple sandwich cookies which were also mealy and so insanely sweet that I couldn’t taste anything other than sugar. They need to reduce the sugar by 50% to allow any other flavours to come out. We also got a butter tart. I’ve eaten a lot of butter tarts in my life and this was the worst. It was dense thick, icing, almost solid sugar, poured into a hard tart shell. Butter tarts are supposed to be gooey or even a tad runny and soft flaky crust. I have no idea why people recommend this place. Almost any bakery in the city does a better job.

Andrea Dark

Celiac friendly!! As a celiac with a gluten and dairy allergy. There are so many different cupcakes to choose from. Absolutely incredible service and flexibility. We have come to Thimblecakes for many engagements, parties and our wedding!

They offer a solid variety of vegetarian and gluten-free options, and it’s clearly a popular spot—it’s typically busy during peak hours. That said, the food can be quite hit-or-miss. I’ve been coming here for years and tend to stick to the same items, having tried most of the menu. Some days, the food is excellent; other times, the selection is disappointingly sparse or just not good. Occasionally, they’ll introduce a new dish that’s barely edible—or worse, come up with something incredible only to never serve it again. The inconsistency is frustrating, especially when you’re driving 20 to 30 minutes without knowing whether you'll find a great spread or a disappointing lineup. Given the higher price point, I expect more reliability. Also worth noting: the kitchen staff is consistently warm and friendly, while the front-of-house team tends to be less welcoming—which always feels a bit off.

Jessica H

Great variety and taste

Layal

By far the best chocolate chip cookie I have ever had. I am not gluten free and want this cookie every time. Well done. You have mastered it.

Brittany MacDonald

Please bring back your old gluten free butter tarts!! They were so good and tasted just like a regular one. I don't know if the recipe has changed, but they aren't as gooy anymore! Otherwise, good gluten free items and sandwiches are yummy!

Bought a coconut lime cake for a birthday frozen gluten free for 60$. This is the first time trying a gluten free cake hoped will taste the same. - Too sweet - Strong chemical taste of lime - Hard and dry base - No date of baking on the cake Had to throw away not even eating one full slice. WORST CAKE EVER.

Leah Mg

This was my first time shopping here. What a great experience. I needed a birthday cake last minute so I took a chance and reached out. The customer service was excellent and the gingerbread cake was absolutely delicious - everyone loved it, no-one would have guessed it was vegan and gluten free!!! Will definitely be a repeat customer. Let’s support this local business!!

BB O

This is a very cozy and cute place for a date or reading a book. Their sandwiches are great and desserts looks delicious! Bonus: they have gluten free paninis and desserts!

Friendly service & gluten free

Rochelle Buenviaje

It's a small place and very popular. I took my sister here who has a gluten allergy and she had grilled cheese with lentil bread (pictured and almost finished). She loved it and they do not skimp out on the cheese. I had the Oaxaca sandwich which was very good and the spiciness was just right, paired with a Thai carrot soup. Coffee was good and served in a big glass mug. We had a window view which was a bit cramped but felt alright. You see so many people come in of all ages and backgrounds. Servers were friendly, left us mostly alone and revisited when needed. Atmosphere is very local and rustic.

Joel Veronika

Came in to get a cake for my daughter’s birthday and Mary’s had just what I needed. The chocolate cake was absolutely delicious, even my anti-gluten free eating husband raved about the flavor combination. Simply delicious!

Alex Andro

Met up with a pal who was vegan. I have celiac, so Bloomers was a done deal! Had a lovely flat white while I caught up with my friend and got a funfetti cookie to go! Crispy on the outside, soft in the middle... 100% would eat again!

Rhonda York

They had some tasty gluten free options. Wish there had been more. The server went above and beyond to clean my dishes. Defiantly going back.

Alexa P

Stumbled across this bakery when travelling with a party of 2 gluten free people, the treats were unreal! I had the vegan gf blueberry scone which was yummy and the vegan gf cinnamon scroll/bun which was absolutely unreal ! My friend had a gf brownie and cookie and loved both! Great service, lovely little store and would definitely order a cake from them in the future if i come back!

Minji

Best treats and food in the area, and I'm not even celiac! The caramel apple cream cheese bars were to die for and they make THE best mac and cheese you'll ever have! A MUST visit!
