Alright. I want to start off by saying that because this place has such a large menu, the quality of the food can vary. So, my rating is based on the items that were hits for me, not the misses. My favorites were the coffee bun, almond croissant, and cake rolls (all shown in the photos). However, we did not enjoy the custard bun as it had a strange texture and flavor, like others have mentioned. The viet coffee and P... View all feedback.

What Irene Lee dislikes about Bake Code:
I ordered 2 bubble teas and a milk custard bun through Doordash. I’m not sure what the milk custard bun is normally supposed to taste like but the bread is very dry and the custard filling is extremely powdery. It’s not exactly what I was expecting since I really liked the croissants with custard in the past so I’m just disappointed. Would not recommend paying $6 for this and I won’t be finishing it.

We visited the store to browse and returned later to pick up a sample selection of the baked goods. They offer a wide selection with most being unusual to western taste. We picked three items and found each to be high quality and tasty. We didn't try the teas or coffees but plan to return.

Bakecode is a very popular cafe and food shop now open on Yonge Street. They serve an assortment of exotic (for me) sweet and savory baked goods and some interesting hot drinks to go with. I had the roasted oolong latte, which apparently uses an espresso system to steep the tea. It was quite good, as was the traditional latte coffee my friend had.We shared a dessert that involved cream cheese mixed with kimchee. I think it was called a Gangnam Star. It could have used a little more kimchee, but it went well with the drinks. People buy a lot of baked goods here - apparently if you buy six or more they waive the tax.Pastries may be on the high-end in prices.Efficient service and very friendly. I will go back.

Kind of stumbled across this place by accident while looking for something to eat that was near the shepherd yonge subway station but wasn't macdonalds and was...well open (and served coffee) - found this place, cozy, warm and inviting. the patio was really cute - especially in the morning. it was a little expensive (each thing was priced invidiually like a chinese bakery in china town often is and because of this if you aren't careful you can spend a pretty penny...er...nickle. No, but, seriously, that blueberry cream cheese pretzel thing was STUPIDLY good. So good.

Nice cozy place with a small size patio. The baked goods are very tasty. Must try the salted duck egg croissant, Raisin cinnamon and walnut bread. I didn't think that the macha croissant was that great (over priced). Hence, the price for each item I think it's pricey. Some of these items you can get from T&T with bigger quantity and same taste. I wouldn't go here on a daily basis. There Japanese cheese slice is approx $7. It's sooo small!!! That's insane!

A great source of creative baked goods ranging from savoury to sweet. I like the ham and cheese loaf, bacon-cheddar bread, cranberry-cream cheese bun, and the coconut-raisin bun. Be sure to carefully read the descriptions so you know what you're getting (e.g. one item is topped with roe, but it looks like cheddar cheese).While this location partners with Chatime, they offer a limited drink menu. In my case they're missing my favourite milk tea flavour -- honeydew!

I purchased 5 mousse cakes, but the staff only gave me 4. The customer service was really poor and frustrating, I will never come back and purchase any food again!

She often ignores customers waiting in line without acknowledging them or letting them know that she will be with them shortly. When customers try to place their orders, she simply responds with a curt "one second" without any greeting or appreciation until the end of the transaction. This behavior makes me and other customers uncomfortable. I find her poor attitude towards customers, including myself, very off-putting. Seeing her at the front of the restaurant, as I did today on August 2nd at 3pm, makes me want to walk away and not return. If her attitude does not improve, I may not choose to dine at this restaurant again.

We ordered one variety of viral croissant, it tasted great. We tried few other cakes which are good too.

The customer service at the Bake Code location on 4910 Yonge St is terrible. The staff is rude and disrespectful towards people of color. As a long-time customer who enjoys their baked goods and drinks, I am disappointed by the disinterested behavior I have encountered at this specific location. My simple requests for extra napkins or sugar syrup in my coffee have been met with hostility, as if I am inconveniencing the staff. Even when inquiring about end of day specials, I was met with eye rolls and a condescending tone of voice. This poor customer service experience has left me feeling undervalued. I hope that the management at Bake Code takes this feedback seriously and improves the service standards at this location.
