Unreliable. It’s been a couple of times recently that they keep the door locked at least 45 minutes after opening. Both times I tried knocking and I’m pretty sure the people inside just didn’t want to deal with customers at the time. Just change your opening time to 7 if you don’t want to open at 6!!!!
This is Cob’s Bread on Oak Bay Avenue, which is incredibly handy for locals and for those wandering the Avenue shopping. It is a small bakery, yet it has a good selection of baked goods, from varieties of breads, including seasonal choices, savoury and sweet croissants, flatbreads, scones, buns, etc. Just about everything you would expect at a good bakery. I was pleased to see that the staff at this location were very pleasant. We purchased the spinach and feta croissants, scones, and two varieties of bread. All were fresh and tasted delicious. There are two benches directly outside the bakery, so a convenient place to sit if you’re grabbing a quick bite. There is limited parking outside the bakery, which is adjacent to a few other shops. Definitely recommend this location.
