I hate to post such a bad review but after giving them the benefit of the doubt, I recently bought a cake there a second time for a very special milestone celebration. I bought a vanilla cake as was requested by the guest of honour. Surprisingly, vanilla cake is not easy to find so I decided to give this place a second chance. Both times 3 years ago and this past weekend the cake came out of the freezer but that was not the problem. Both cakes were stale and dry. This time around, I paid $38 for a dry cake that tasted like sugarless butter icing. 9 out of 9 guests did not finish their cake, and it was all the talk about how terribly disappointing the cake was. We left the last three slices at the restaurant for disposal. I don't understand how this place stays in business.
One of the top three bakeries in Ottawa. Their croissants, particularly almond croissants, are nothing short of awesome. They also have an amazing selection of breads, cakes, and pastries.
Ordered a two-tiered casino themed cake for a birthday party, gave her lots of creative freedom and it turned out amazing. Cake tasted great and everybody loved it.
I had an amazing experience at this establishment. The front ladies where so kind. My almond croissant? Crispy and fresh. It tasted like a little pocket of joy crusted kindly with perfectly sliced almonds. I would highly recommend coming to La provence bakery if you are craving a tasty treat or just need a smile.
Love the Mocha cake here!! It's a tradition to have one on our b'days. They have a good collection of croissants, especially the almond one. I don't find it to be an issue but a heads up-their cakes are frozen. You will need to let them get to room temperature which normally takes 1-1.5 hours.
Amazing cake! We grab all our cakes from this location. Sometime the more popular flavors get sold out so be sure to call in and place order ahead of time.
Not a good place for anyone with diabetes, but the sweet treats are delicious, from pastries and scones to mousse options. Yum! The croissants need work. Bread options are comparable to other local bakeries.
Dry cakes, little cream. It's not tasty. Expensive for these kind of cakes.
Best black forest cakes, make sure to order ahead. They also have a great selection of pies, cookies and croissants freshly made.
This bakery is a hidden gem that I’m so happy I discovered! Beautiful atmosphere, friendly service and absolutely delicious baked goods and treats. Definitely my favourite bakery!
