I’ve been to Tartelette quite a few times to grab a croissant and coffee for breakfast – their cured salmon croissant is the best!

This was my first time trying their high-tea menu. Pleasantly surprised at how generous the servings were, the tea was fantastic and they even accommodated a Halal menu. The scones with the strawberry compote was lovely and so was the egg salad croissant.

Very sweet decorations because it was Valentines themed, there was enough to take home after. AND their service staff were very kind to take photos of the group. Totally recommend!!

Not just another β€œbakery”.
It was just what we needed. Some high quality pastries along with a great latte.
The problem? Which ones to choose.
We enjoyed the cozy and quiet atmosphere that day. It was cold and we enjoyed a warm drink and some delicious pastries that we won’t forget.
The pistachio and rose croissant was incredible. Like nothing we had before. What a wonderful change to an old favorite.
We moved onto the Pain Suisse and we were not disappointed. Again, incredible.
Buttery, flaky, high quality, beautiful and oh so very delicious.
You have two new followers of your bakery.
Well done. See you again soon.

Came here with locals who highly recommended it and can see why. The pastries are not only amazing to look at but taste amazing too. They serve espresso drinks as well and use equator coffee. Staff is friendly and while things don’t move quickly they do good work. The indoor space is tiny and was completely full when we were there on a Sunday morning. I’m guessing it’s often that way so I downgraded the atmosphere a star. In warmer months there is outdoor seating so capacity is better. I had a double chocolate pain au chocolat and really enjoyed it along with a flat white. Definitely recommend!

Nice and clean spot! Prices are reasonable, but what really stood out was the excellent service and amazing food.
I was pleasantly surprised to see several pistachio options on the menu including a cheesecake infused with Mediterranean spices (rose, saffron, and cardamom), as well as a pistachio tart and croissant. I tried the cheesecake and the pistachio croissant with rose and both were delicious. Even though the croissant had sugar on top, it wasn’t overly sweet, which I really appreciated. I also ordered a matcha latte with almond milk. The matcha was strong and pleasantly bitter, just the way it should be.

Individual desserts (cakes and tarts) were priced between $8.50 and $10 CAD.

The ambiance was lovely, perfect for a coffee outing with friends or a casual date.

This Saturday I finally decided to head to Main St to try Tartelette after it kept popping up on my feed. It is a busy and vibrant bakery and coffee shop. Service is good. Although small, the place is clean and welcoming.
Pastries look so good they seem fake: I’ve rarely seen croissants look this perfect. They are tasty too. I tried the plain croissant and the Smoked Salmon and cream cheese croissant and they were both excellent. The cinnamon and honey latte with almond milk was a delight.
I will be going back soon for afternoon tea with my girls.
