I love the Skeena Bakery. It is my go to treat place with an amazing program within the business of "baking down barriers". They employ and train folks who have neurodivergent learning styles and also source their soups from various society's and folks who are local, therefore generating income for others while supplying locally made soups. I bought a lovely cookie tin for the holidays as a birthday gift for a family member and I just loved the packaging! My favorite staff member is Harvey who is a Gitxsan and he is always so friendly and fast with his service! Highly recommend this place for your

Great little bakery! Beautifully crafted artisan bread!!! Yummy cookies! We popped in after our tour of Kasan and the local waterfall hike. Perfect spot to stop and grab baked goods!

I mentioned this business in a different review, as the best place to actually buy the products of another business! Most of all, however, it has excellent, freshly made bread and baked products of all kinds, and the prices are not out of line. I host traveling bicyclists from around the world, and have heard European cyclists give rave reviews of this place after passing through New Hazelton. The service is not effusive, but in no way unfriendly, slow or unpleasant.

Smells magical like a bakery ought to! Always has an excellent brew of locally roasted coffee, nothing fancy, great cinnamon buns, good cookies, yummy chocolate buns, delectable scones, sinful desserts, and friendly staff. Darren, the baker, is a super smart guy and always super interesting to chat with, though maybe steer him away from the conspiracy theories.

Oh yeah, high quality fresh bread with lots of choice, and discounts on the day old.

I also like the daily lunch special which is usually a bowl if chilli or something nice and simple that goes with a scone or slice of fresh bread.

Run by a local employment opportunity organization. Good feel, friendly place. Ordered a cranberry scone and a beef sausage roll. Roll was excellent, the scone would have benefitted from more cranberries. Still worth the stop if you are on your way through Hazelton, BC, on highway 16.

Just a great place! Their baked goods are excellent (I'm a big fan of the sausage rolls and Picasso bread), they sell Mercedes coffee and Donna's chocolate (also great and nice to support other local shops), and they try and hire and support local community members.

Tasty baked goods, good service, warm friendly service. Tip, phone ahead if you would like to order certain breads eg. sour dough. Great local coffee served from Mercedes Beans.

A local gem, fabulously awesome cinnamon buns! Many other treats, some gluten free ...and a nice assortment of breads and other savoury items. Welcoming staff, decent coffee.
Unassuming facade, easy to drive by ...Don't!

The Skeena Bakery was a quick stop during our drive to Prince George and back. We were pleasantly surprised by fresh out-of-the-oven scones, muffins and breads that made our trip even more pleasant on that early early morning. The scones were just amazing. And everything else was amazing also. I don't recall everything we bought, but we bought a lot and by the time we arrived in Prince George, it was all gone. Everything made from scratch, everything made fresh. Just great.

The service was extremely friendly. The owner, employees and customers were all very nice. It is a warm bakery
