This bakery does NOT know how to conduct business in America!! We ordered a cake (baptism) well in advance to be ready for pickup at 12pm on a Sat. I arrived at 12:10pm and the cake was NOT ready--even after paying for the cake & telling them I was in a rush, I was still made to wait 35 minutes--which made me late for the baptism!!! They OVERCHARGE---very expensive for what you get!! They overcharge for a TINY chocolate plaque; they do not advise of extra fee for chocolate plaque & extra charge for tax, NOR were they going to give me a RECEIPT!!! I will report them to the government as I believe they are not registering payments etc--to pocket $ under the table!!! The owner was not there, so I called later to speak with them to complain--NOT french--with a name like Falinski! He told me, "it's expected to have to wait....just like at a doctor's office"!!!!! A BAKERY IS LIKE A DR'S OFFICE?!!!!!!! I could not believe he said that!!! Furthermore, he said, "what do you want me to do about it?"!!!!!! He did not offer any apologies nor anything to make up for THEIR ERRORS!!!!!! WE WILL NEVER ORDER CAKES/anything else FROM THEM AGAIN!!! THEY SHOULD LEARN PROPER BUSINESS ETIQUETTE FOR NORTH AMERICA!!! Also, they did not make the proper traditional French flan torte we ordered!! NEVER AGAIN, NEVER AGAIN, NEVER AGAIN, PAS ENCORE, PAS ENCORE, PAS ENCORE, MAI PIU, MAI PIU, MAI PIU!!!!
That review was totally unfounded. I believe the boulangerie is of utmost quality - very rare to find anywhere -especially in Port Credit! I read that Marish has had extensive gourmet training (internationally at that). I find everything skillfully done and delicious, made with the finest ingredients (real butter and cream - unlike many establishments in the area)! I can only think that this reviewer IS one of the other establishments in Port Credit who feels threatened by the boulangerie's presence!
When someone says the pastries look like they are made of wax, is simply mud slinging. What on earth was on this person's mind. He/she didn't even say what was ordered. The whole thing smells fishy to me. They don't always serve fish..but when they do its great..I've had it.large portions too.
