Best Bakery for Apple Pie & Florentine Cookies in Vancouver



One of Vancouver's best bakeries is one you hear very little about, Patisserie Bordeaux in the city's Kitsilano neighbourhood

Name:  Patisserie Bordeaux
Location:  3675 W. 10th Avenue (Alma Place between 7-11 and Browns Social House)
Specialities:  Pastries & Pies, Cakes, Breads, Chocolate, Wedding Cakes

The apple pie is absolutely fantastic and I would highly recommend it.  You will be glad you made the trip to Kitsilano.

Another 'must have' is Patisserie Bordeaux's Florentine Cookie - an Italian biscuit made from setting nuts (almonds) into a caramel disc which is then coated on the bottom with dark chocolate.  Since initially trying them, they have become an immediate favorite.  While Florentine cookies are particularly popular during the holiday season, luckily Patisserie Bordeaux has them available year round.
