Best Bakery and Cake Shops in Coquitlam

"Purebread is a family bakery established in Whistler that bakes delicious bread, savouries, cakes, and treats that bring a smile to peoples’ faces. They started off by baking bread at home for family and friends and after plucking up the courage to share their baking at a Christmas market in Whistler some years ago, they have had fantastic local support and have grown to do many more regular markets throughout the Sea to Sky region, in addition to opening up five bakeries. They have a fantastic team of people who are all as passionate about baking and eating good food as the family are."

"As the name implies, Purebread bakes over 20 different loaves. Find classic breads such as baguette, ciabatta, and rye, as well as a number of unique flavours including sour cherry pecan, lavender rosemary, and asiago black pepper. The bakery also offers plenty of treats to satisfy customers with a sweet tooth."

"A great bakery that has several locations around Vancouver and one of them is very close if you are hovering between Gastown and Chinatown. Have a bite of their flourless chocolate cake, or their stunning, flavoursome bacon and egg brioche. Combine your snack with iced Americano."

"Cartems offers so many awesome flavours it’s a borderline challenge to pick one when you walk into one of their shops. From the crave-worthy Cookies and cream to one of their adventurous rotating savoury options (like honey parmesan), not to mention their decadent filled "Stuffies" there's something for everyone here. Vegans take note: there are plenty of donuts for you at Cartems, too."

"Let’s say you’re looking for something a little different to set your birthday party apart from the others because, let’s face it, who doesn’t want a little wow factor on their special day?. Luckily, Cartem Donuterie caters to your every need with their wide array of donut flavours!. Ranging from Salted Caramel Cake donuts to Rose Wine and even offering vegan and gluten-free options."

"Address: Downtown – 534 West Pender, Vancouver BC | Mount Pleasant – 2190 Main St., Vancouver BC. My friends wanted to go and get some donuts, and we went to this place called Cartems!. Apparently, they have a lot of vegan and gluten-free options (which made me really happy!)."

"Looking for something a little extravagant to make you feel a bit like Aubrey Hephurn in every Aubrey Hepburn movie ever?. Thierry offers only the most beautiful desserts and pastries in Vancouver. Every bite of cake transports you directly to a cafe in Europe to live out your socialite fantasies."

"So if you’re in the mood for a pastry or chocolate you can head here and enjoy it on their outdoor patio. And that sounds like a pretty ideal fall activity if you ask us. Where: 1059 Alberni StreetHours: Mon-Thursday 8 am-10 pm, Friday & Saturday 8 am-11 pm, Sunday 9 am-10 pm"

"Thierry is now open Mondays through Fridays from 8am to 9pm, and weekends from 9am to 9pm on weekends. Our chefs from Toptable Group’s Thierry, Elisa, Blue Water Cafe, and CinCin in Vancouver, have collaborated to bring a new concept to you"

"Small Victory is best known for their house-made pastries, but they also make a to-die-for coconut cake, made from moist layers of coconut sponge blanketed with the velvety coconut pudding cream. In the middle of this treat is a surprise layer of crunchy goodness. Address: 1088 Homer Street, VancouverPhone: 604-899-8892"

"Despite the name, Small Victory Café is actually a relatively spacious establishment that offers breakfast, lunch and many other food items in between. Cookie wise, they are known for their Chocolate Chunk Cookie and Double Chocolate Flourless Cookie. Their cookies are very rich and not lacking in any ingredients."

"Most cafés on this list cater to the coffee uber-geeks that frequent gentrifying artsy neighborhoods like Gastown. Small Victory lets the quinoa-salad-and-avocado-toast crowds in Yaletown and South Granville get in on top-flight brews too. Its pour-over beans come from Prototype and other cool Canadian roasters."

"Everyone talks about the double bake from Thomas Haas, but what if I told you there was a cheaper double bake option, and at least in a case-by-case comparison in my analysis, that came from a newer entrant in the Vancouver almond croissant scene?. While the almond paste was a little on the short side, it feels like the intention here was to showcase the mastery in flakiness and overall croissant mastery. The folds here were immaculate to say the least and the rise was off the charts relative to everything else on this list."

"We are an independent bakery specializing in naturally leavened sourdough bread and French inspired pastries. We believe in making everything from scratch, with fresh, high quality ingredients. All of our breads are made with whole grains and baked"

Cupcakes nails the classics like chocolate, red velvet, and vanilla cake – all of which are available in a variety of Insta-worthy styles. In addition to this, their iconic cupcakes are just as pretty as the big cakes and they don’t need to be ordered in advance."

"Despite a strong focus on cupcakes, Original Cupcakes is well known for their custom cakes. Not surprisingly, their most popular creation is their gigantic cupcake cake. The Barbie cake is another big favourite for birthday parties."

"Located in Chinatown, New Town Bakery opened in 1980 and also has a location in Surrey. It is a Chinese bakery and also has a full service restaurant with fantastic dim sum. If you’re ordering from the bakery you’ll likely only need a bun or two."

"These guys have been serving up classic Chinese street food for close to 40 years. Your best bets are the BBQ Steamed Buns with a couple of apple tarts for dessert. Hours: Daily, 6:30AM-8:30PMWhere: 148 E Pender Street"

"The Mark James Group has brewed beer at the Yaletown Brewing Company for over 20 years, so when they decided to start artisan distilling in 2013 they brought with them a wealth of industry knowledge. Located in the historic Yaletown Soho building, the tasting room offers visitors guided tours, tastings and a retail room where you can purchase a bottle to take home for yourself. Don’t-miss Drink: Yaletown Vodka."

"Located in the heart of Vancouver’s traditional ‘Little Italy’ on Commercial Drive, Gelateria Dolce Amore is a family-owned and operated gelateria with neighborhood roots that are four generations deep. Dolce Amore’s gelato makers combine the creativity of an artist, the inspiration of a chef, the discipline of a craftsman, the precision of an architect, and the passion of a composer to handcraft the shop’s incredible gelatos and sorbettos. Their commitment to this special artisan craft is evident in every taste."

"Featuring homemade ice cream using fresh local ingredients, Rooster’s Ice Cream Bar wants its guests to feel right at home, putting heart and soul into the ice cream and focusing on the small batch, artisan process. With a wide variety of light to rich ice cream flavors, a great price to portion ratio with generous scoops compared to other local shops, friendly staff, and locally sourced waffles, this recently opened locally owned shop has quickly become a favorite among Vancouver residents and visitors alike. Patrons love the unpretentious atmosphere, the more experimental ice cream flavors like Organic Roasted Choco Banana and Avocado & Honey with Vodka, and the huge samples."

"▪️Rooster’s Ice Cream Bar▪️ flew the coop and headed to Roosters!. We were intrigued by their unique flavours like the avocado honey vodka (left) and lime & lavender. I ended up ordering the cookie cream (right) though."

"Editor's Note: There's no photo available at the time of writing. This is a boutique-style ice cream bar. This shop was opened for the love of ice cream."

"This unique dessert café at the base of South Granville combines the owners’ two great loves: cheesecake, of course — an old family recipe — and music. Head in after a dinner out for your last course of the evening and enjoy an almost sinful, crustless slice of cake while listening to the sweet sounds of jazz. Aside from the classics, they make a chocolate version with peanut butter cream as well as nightly cheesecake specials like almond-mocha and lemon crumble."

"Their award-winning cheesecake is often considered the best in the city. Based on a New York-style recipe, their cake is creamy, rich and not too sweet, especially given the welcome dollop of unsweetened and light-as-air whipped cream on the side. Choose from classic with fruit compote, blueberry, chocolate, chocolate-cherry, key lime and a rotating selection of other flavours."

"End your walk at Trees Organic Coffee on the edge of Gastown. It’s a great place to people watch, especially because it’s conveniently located next to an Instagrammable pink street. Not only do you get to watch people take cheesy photos, but you can take some of your own as well."

"The combination of the fluffy texture, the graham cracker crust, and the amount of love in it makes it incredibly hard to have just one slice."
