Best Bakery and Cake Shops in Granville Island

"Purebread’s Chocolate Chip Cookie (Jess Fleming / Vancity Buzz). Having earned themselves quite the reputation for housing a staggering array of baked goods, it should come as no surprise that Purebread offers an incredibly decadent and delicious chocolate chip cookie ($3). Handcrafted on-site, this sizeable treat rocks timeless flavours and is topped with a dash of sea salt."

"This cute little bakery has expanded in recent years and is a firm favourite among Vancouverites for its sweet treats. How ’bout a slice of raspberry riot topped with hot pink raspberry lemon drizzle or a chocolate-packed outrageous brownie?. Purebread uses real, quality ingredients that help to make their goodies delicious."

"Purebread is a must for great baking in Vancouver and they just opened yet another location!. Fresh off the heels of their new Mount Pleasant location, Purebread is a welcome addition in Kitsilano at 2887 West Broadway, serving up pastries, breads, squares, bars, cookies and more."

"Maybe you’ve seen their vegan offerings over the years, and maybe you haven’t. Well, let us reassure that no matter what day you swing by, Cartems will have a sweet selection of vegan donuts for you to try out. It’s the perfect dessert to pick up on your way to a work function or a dinner party."

"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!)."

"If you want to feel like you’ve been transported to another continent and into an authentic European Bakery, then step through the doors of Thierry. This beautiful establishment is pure class and a haven for anyone with a sweet-tooth, and a pleasure for those with an eye for detail. Renowned maitre artisan Chocolatier and Patissier offers a wide selection of breads and baked goods that will leave you with a lasting impression, so take the plunge and treat yourself to a super-sweet experience."

"Looking inside, you can see there are actually two almond sections: one tube-like almond bar and a generous amount of almond paste buried under a number of layers and folds. Content-wise, this had the second highest almond proportion. Its shell didn't have the same flakiness as the two above but made up for it with a great rise."

"Born in Auvergne, Thierry Busset trained with European masters before taking his pastry prowess to London’s Le Gavroche and Marco Pierre White (both of which peaked at three Michelin stars). His talent even tamed the famously mercurial Gordon..."

"In addition to their freshly-baked loaves and sandwiches, Yaletown’s Small Victory also boasts a range of sweet treats all made on site in the bakery’s open kitchen.

"Not only is Turf a trendy fitness studio, it’s also a restaurant and café that serves mostly plant-based food, with locally and consciously sourced ingredients. I frequent their downtown location on West Georgia Street, which is super spacious and bright. It’s a great place to sit with a cup of coffee and get some work done."

"The TurF menu philosophy is simple – food keeps us alive, but good food makes us feel alive. At TurF, "good" means whole, humane and non-processed with no refined sugar. It means we always source from local Vancouver farms first, and"

"Of all the vegan restaurants in Vancouver, I have returned multiple times to TurF. TurF – is a glorious combination of a fitness studio, a shop and a restaurant. Stop by for a meal or drop in for a coffee and delectable treat."

"A post shared by The NAAM Restaurant (@naamrestaurant) on Mar 13, 2017 at 10:53am PDT. Considered a staple for vegetarian and vegan eats in Vancouver for, well, what seems like forever, eating at Kitsilano’s The Naam is pretty much a rite of passage. Their calling card dish is their Sesame Fries with an add-on of Miso Gravy, but you’ll also find an array of noodles, bowls, veggie burgers, Mexican-inspired fare, salads, appies, and much more here."

"Chances are Dogwood’s location are what hurt them the most on this list, being right near Knight Street bridge off of SE Marine drive. That being said, they get credit for being the only brewery on this list that is 100% organic."

"Vancouver’s first nano-brewery opened way back in 2012 (practically prehistoric by now) and has been hitting home runs ever since. In fact, it was customer demand that forced them to grow, not the other way around. Hours: Daily, 11AM-11PMWhere: 1448 Charlotte Road"
