About Us

Mighty Fine Bakehouse was built on values.

Having worked in fine dining restaurants, we were dismayed by how exclusive food had become. We all look to food for comfort and care in addition to energy and nutrition. How can we create food that is not only delicious, but also nutritious and comforting? Can it be affordable as well? Can we keep our waste to a minimum, use packaging with lower footprints, and connect with local growers as well as our own backyard? Can we reduce the sugar in our pastries and increase the whole grains without compromising the final product? This is the MFB standard we hold ourselves to.

Graham: Chef/FOH

... began working in pubs when he was fourteen. Making comfort food with classic techniques to produce big flavour is his passion. He has had the good luck to work for Gary Rhodes in London (UK), at Rouge in Calgary, The Soca and Thyme & Again in Ottawa.

Megan: Pastry Chef/Bread Baker

...learned how to bake and cook from Heather Matthews at the Scone Witch in Ottawa, then attended Le Cordon Bleu in 2010. She discovered her love of bread baking while living in England. Megan is lucky to have worked for Gary Rhodes, Darren McLean in Calgary, Thyme & Again, and the Red Apron in Ottawa.

what we do

We source quality ingredients from as many local/Canadian producers as possible in order to create delightful treats, nutritious meals, and stimulating beverages. We make almost everything in house using classic techniques mixed with contemporary methods of creating big flavour. We do not use ultra processed ingredients, and everything contains over 20% whole grain and has less sugar that typical bakeries. We keep a static menu for those who like consistency and rotate as-seasonal-as-possible specials weekly.

Bakery

We create all our baked goods on site using methods that allow for better nutrition and flavour. All our breads are slow-fermented, and everything is made with organic or non-certified organic/sustainably grown flours. Orders for pastries or bread are encouraged due to high demand.

Cafe

Our delicious 49th Parallel-based coffees are available. Our shop is indoor service with outdoor seating available during the warmer months. Limited indoor seating is available all year. Sandwiches, salads, and hot soup are available daily, and we have a selection of frozen meals and desserts available.
