**While quantities last, please place an order if you are looking for something specific. *Please note: Products labeled GF are still made in a wheat-abundant kitchen. We try to reduce cross contamination as much as possible, we cannot guarantee there has been none. We use "gf" because it is the most commonly known acronym.
We bake bread everyday we are open, but have a limit of 80 loaves. Leavened with sourdough only, and an overnight cool fermentation, they have complex flavour but only somewhat sour -- if you love very sour bread, ours may not be for you. All made with Organic or Sustainably certified Quebec grains - We do not make gluten-free bread. See our FAQ page for more flour info on ingredients. Our Weekly menu lists daily special loaves.
20% organic whole wheat and 5% rye gives our T65 bread flour (65% sifted) it's "country" style. This soft loaf is an excellent all-purpose bread with a crisp crust and open crumb. The flavour is mild-to-medium in sour level. Available in Oblong or square loaves.
Eighty percent Organic naturally leavened whole wheat with no added sugar. This loaf has almost no sour flavour with a soft but sturdy crumb, softer crust than our white loaf - excellent for sandwiches.
Multigrain loaf with a multitude of toasted seeds - sunflower, sesame, black sesame, chia, poppy. Barely-there sour notes highlight the toasted, nutty flavour of the seeds.
Contains 35% whole wheat and 5% dark rye.
30% dark rye flour long fermented with T65 and a touch of whole wheat, this loaf has a tighter crumb and is perfect for sandwiches.

Roasted in Burnaby, BC, we use 49th Parallel for it's consistency, ethics, and most importantly: classic coffee flavour. We carry Old school espresso (what we use for our drinks), Epic Espresso (light roast coveted by many locals), Decaf, and Longitude 123 for those looking for a drip option.
Genuine Tea is a Toronto based tea company that focuses on ethically sourced and organic teas. They have personal relationships with growers and select the best quality black and green teas. We keep a small selection of loose teas as well as biodegradable tea bags from them. All their packaging is biodegradable.
Diamond Kosher Salt is often used by chefs for it's clean flavour and fine texture that dissolves quickly. This feature is handy so you don't over-season your food. It is less 'salty' than sea salt due to it's texture. Can also be used as a finishing salt.
Chef's secret - I worked for a Chef who swore by adding a touch of Sherry Vinegar to every dish for brightness and complexity. He isn't wrong. They are sweet and impart minimal acidity and comforting woody notes. Good replacement for the more pricy Balsamic.
We carry a very small selection of Japanese knives due to Graham's love of them. Our Tojiro Bread knife has been voted the best bread knife available on Serious Eats.com. We also bring in a few other knives so check with us on our current selection as stock rotates frequently.
Industry chefs often choose the inexpensive Kuhn Rikon Y peelers because they work well and are fast. The carbon steel blade stays sharp and the light body eases stress on the hand. Their pairing knives are especially handy in camp gear as they come with a blade cover.
