Blake's Bakery

I found this place by accident a few weeks ago, but I'm certainly glad I did. All my life, I had access to incredible baked goods, and became naive in the thought that good bakeries were commonplace throughout the world. Man, was I wrong.

I moved to the area from the East coast 5 years back, and had been looking for a place to get good, fresh bread. Sounds like something that should be easy, but this proved to be a task. Tried a couple of places and wasn't impressed, so I asked several friends who they'd recommend. Time and time again, Cob's bread was the recommendation. Well, if you've had great bread, you'd know Cob's isn't it.

So, I thought to myself "if everybody goes to Cob's because it's the best, I guess that's the end of my search". And it was, for 4 years, I didn't look at all. Then, leaving the car wash one afternoon, I spotted Blake's in a small complex. Walked in, and asked for just a loaf of white bread. This was really just a shot in the dark, so I only took the one loaf. Well, I was back the next morning for two more, and have been in a couple times again.

You will not be disappointed. Cinnamon rolls were great, cookies, and of course, the bread. Highly recommend if you're not sure where to go.

DELICIOUS! Great service. Very friendly smiling faces ready to help. Scones, bread, tarts, loaves... I can't choose a favourite. So good! ????

The best Nanaimo Bar I've ever had. The sausage rolls are delicious. Service is friendly. Love it.

This is a fantastic little locally owned bakery. We stopped in and tried an assortment of goods, both savory and sweet, and it was all delicious. Staff was friendly and polite, service was prompt, and prices are reasonable. We will definitely be coming back.

The most delicious baked goods by far and wonderful service. An absolute gem of a store in Stony Plain. Love it!
