THE SWEET RETREAT BAKERY REVIEWS
Absolutely fantastic! As soon as you walk in theres a beautiful display of desserts and bread, they were so friendly and welcoming~ I grabbed a handful of different things and it was all so good! Would definitely recommend it to everyone.
I have never, ever, ever tasted desserts as delicious as the ones from The Sweet Retreat bakery in 61 years of life!! The cinnamon buns were soft and the icing just perfect.
My favorite local bakery! The strawberry cake cups are totally addictive and the danishes are soooo so good as well. Very pleased to have Miranda as my neighbour.

SMALL SCALE BREAD REVIEWS
A hidden gem of Belleville. I live in San Francisco and stopped by this bakery en route to Toronto because it opened at 8am normal Bakery time instead of 10am like the rest of the bakeries. Gosh what a perfect loaf of sourdough, rivaling the best of SF! Crispy yet chewy crust with soft and moist inside. The cookies were flavorful and chewy. We bought a few other pastries just to try because they looked so good. They were all wonderful. A very legit “big city” bakery in a small town/small city. Their drink department could use improvement though. I’d say they are a great bakery but not a cafe yet. Highly recommend if you want bread loaves and bake goods.
Finally made it to Small Scale Bread! Beautiful spot in Belleville, definitely worth a stop. We picked up some fresh sesame sourdough, a box or treats and a coffee. We’ll be going back for sure. There a beautiful quiet spot to sit out front and enjoy your goodies too.
Been driving past this sign for a while and happy to have finally stopped in. Friendly place. Managed to snag one of the last loaves and was surprised to see vegan blondies. Both were great!

PANERA BREAD - BELLEVILLE REVIEWS
So I went there for lunch. Now I love Panera already, however my brother ordered a grilled cheese and it wasn't grilled as much as it was supposed to be. But when we went up to ask for it to be grilled a bit more they said we will make you a new whole grilled cheese despite you already have eaten half of it. That shows that Panera respects people and shows proper restaurant etiquette. I would recommend that anyone who wants fresh food, good service, and an excellent environment to eat. Goto Panera
The staff at Panera bread Bell Boulevard in Belleville, just made me the most delicious turkey and avocado sandwich with this beautiful strawberry and poppy seed salad on the side, ... Fantastico
