Don't believe the hype!
Yesterday I bought large Apple from Mabels for the first time.
It was awful!
The crust was soft and chewy.
The apples used were tasteless.
The stuffing fell apart.
The most expensive Apple Pie I have bought and the worst ever!

The sandwiches are very disappointing, especially at the cost of $15. Lemon tarts are delicious.

I bought an apple pie from Mabel’s for a family dinner and was incredibly disappointed. The crust was OK but the filling was terrible - the apples had a bizarre rubbery, chewy texture and were cut in massive chunks. I suspect that the filling was made from rehydrated apples rather than fresh. Nobody liked it or wanted seconds (really saying something for us!). Really not what I was expecting given Mabel’s reputation and the fact that I paid >$20. Maybe pies aren’t their specialty, but it was still a huge letdown - I could have gotten a better pie from the grocery store. Won’t be going back

The food is great. I love the bread and they have excellent quiche and cookies, but the customer service at the St. Clair location is completely disorganized. I find I am regularly served by multiple people who get my order wrong 30% of the time. I have walked out several times without all the items I have paid for because they did not put them in the bag. Watch them carefully, review everything you have asked for and paid for before you leave.

My husband had a special day to highlight. We wanted a cake to bring the celebration in to focus. MABEL’S had THE chocolate butter cream cake of true perfection and our dreams! The price point in relation to the portion size provided a gourmet dessert experience that continued all week long. Just added whipped cream to compliment the texture of the dense cake and medium smooth delicate chocolate flavour. Since that day we continue to return to Mabel’s for baked-goods for coffee-time at home. We ordered by phone from their website. Staff are very pleasant and helpful. Message on the cake was

I was at this bakery on the weekend and picked up a brownie to go, and I want to say it was the most delicious brownie I ever had. It was soft and moist and just melted in my mouth. I am so glad I bought it. I would come back for more every time I visit downtown Toronto.

The triple chocolate brownie and the flourless were too sweet even though we specifically asked for not too sweet. Threw them in the garbage and left. The person didn't even offer a refund, an apology or an explanation. The coffee was ok.

One of my favourite bakeries in Toronto!!! Always get their almond croissants nice and early in the day. They're chocolate chip cookies are to die for!!!

This location did not have friendly service and the server was pretty rude when I asked questions about how the bagels and other savoury items were made, so I would not return to this location. Go to the Queen West location instead!!! They're super friendly and kind there.

Supreme breads!

I've always been willing to travel for great quality and Mabel's breads are definitely worth the trip. Weather baguette, lavash or loafs the quality is excellent. Their breads are additive free, contain local Organic flower and sea salt!

To top it off they use a beautiful wild "slow" yeast which results in spectacularly flavourful and aromatic breads.

Keep up the great work.

We had planned a trip to Emma's today on Easter Monday, but wow were we lucky to find Mabel's when we realized Emma's was closed.

Feeding someone with an egg allergy in a restaurant at breakfast time can be a challenge. The chicken pot pie of all things caught my kid's eye and the kindly salesperson checked very carefully to make sure it was okay. That was so appreciated. She loved it and ate the whole thing.

The coffee and Montreal bagel for me were an excellent treat.

Nice selection of cheese and homemade jam to take home. Love. Grabbed a selection of goodies for the road

This is where you can find the best croissants in Toronto. They use and sell French butter which is much better than Canadian butter especially for baking as it has less water to fat content. They have decent salads but great drinks. I love their lavender tea latte. My one caveat about this store is seating. Its not the most comfortable. High points for Mabels for donating to the local Out of the Cold and Wychwood Open Door drop-in center.

Well I've been to Mabels on Roncy and I love that location. I have to admit when I saw this location's average rating was less...I thought...hmm, well that was my experience as well!
I got my favourites squares, chocolate brownie and lemon square and they were good as usual. But I thought the service was only so-so and they were not as helpful and seemed in a hurry to get everyone through. Now the nice thing about this location is you can sit which I did. I got a egg salad sandwich, made that morning, but in the fridge and it was super cold to bite into. And they charged for an

Some of the best bread in the neighbourhood, and their pastries, pies and bagels are also top notch.

I went there a couple of time. They had good reputation for their cup cakes and I tried. The cup cake was not bad but not excellent. I tried their apple pie. They did not have a piece of pie, but they had a small whole pie. It was good. I tried their croissant and it was good, too. They had a counter and little tables, but the place is too small to have a cup of coffee inside.

This is such a cute store with friendly staff and tasty food. I especially love that they have fresh Montreal-style bagels.

My only complaint is that the place is SWARMING with bees on any given day. Bees all over the danishes, bees all over the cupcakes, bees all over the bagels, and bees all over the cookies. The last time I went in, bees were swarming around the heads of myself and the cashier, and it was pretty intimidating trying to scoop up a bagel while trying not to get stung. They don't cover a lot of the food, so the bees have a field day on the sweets.

EDIT: They resolved the

I was a huge fan of Mabels until I bought a cake from this new location.

I went for the chocolate buttercream cake which looked beautiful.

Well after raving to everyone at the party how Mabels cakes and pies are divine, we sliced the cake and it was DRY. And flavourless. I've had better cake from a grocery store. No one finished their cake.

Not only was I embarrassed for boasting about Mabel's, I was not happy that I wasted time and money on this waste of a cake, and our dessert for the celebration was ruined.
