Bank Cafe

You see the posts about the carrot cake everywhere and honestly the hype is real. Stopped in, grabbed some coffees, a couple cookies and the carrot cake muffin, and that carrot cake was genuinely probably the best I've ever had. The coffee was pretty good too.nnThe one thing that felt a bit off was the older woman working there when we walked in. No greeting, didn't even glance our way, which made for an awkward entrance. But the younger woman who served us was the complete opposite, really pleasant, enthusiastic and welcoming. Night and day difference between the two. She definitely saved the experience.nnWould go back just for that carrot cake alone. That's the kind of quality that's worth the drive.

I have been to the Bank Cafe many many times to experience their amazing carrot cake. The sign in the window says it all, world's best carrot cake!nnAs I am a coffee reviewer, on this occasion, we ordered a Cortado to accompany our carrot cake. Although it was slightly light on milk, the espresso was beautifully prepared, resulting in a deep rich taste.nnThe cafe sources it's beans from a local roastery, the Creemore Coffee Company.It is my understanding that the Roastery does a special espresso roast for the café and the results were wonderful.nnI unhesitantly would recommend this spot for a coffee and cake. My only concern is the extremely limited amount of seating in the winter which may necessitate taking coffee and cake to go. To me, it seems a shame to waste such a beautiful cup of coffee by putting it in a paper cup, but needs must.

Best carrot cake ever!!! Generous portions, fair prices, excellent service. I was very impressed. I also had the ham and Swiss cheese baguette which was delicious. The shop itself is nice and cosy, a really nice environment. I will definetly be back.

Beautiful cafe. Great staff. We ate a salad and grilled cheese sandwich, lavender lemonade, cappuccino and a carrot cake muffin. It was sooo good I went bake in to buy a whole cake!!!

Stumbled across this cafe while exploring Creemore. We thought it might be over hyped but it was quite possibly the best carrot cake we’ve ever had. Amazing! Even better than Llyod’s in New York.
