The counter, at a glance
Cornetti still warm, focaccia by the slab, pane fresh from the deck oven, biscotti in the jars — the daily lineup that keeps the neighbourhood coming back.
A neighbourhood bakery on Main Street where the ovens open before sunrise. Sourdough, focaccia, pizza al taglio, dolci, and the everyday Italian grocery you cross the city for. Made fresh, made by hand, made with love.
Metteteci la passione, e tutto risultera' meraviglioso.
— Put the love in, and everything comes out beautiful.
Nestled in Toronto's Upper Beaches, our little bakery brings the warmth and charm of Italy to your neighbourhood. Every loaf, every focaccia, every square of pizza al taglio is made with time-honoured recipes and a stubborn devotion to the way it's always been done back home.
From the rich pull of espresso in the morning to the golden crust of a just-baked focaccia in the afternoon, our team has thought about every detail so that walking in feels a little like coming home. The shelves fill up daily with classics — cornetti, cannoli, tiramisu, tarallucci, panini — beside the pantry staples you need for tonight's sugo.
Whether you're stopping in for your morning cappuccino, grabbing a slice on your way through the Beach, or picking up something sweet for the family, you'll find every bite made with care and tradition. Mangiamo.
Nine real frames from behind our counter. Scroll sideways, or just watch — the tray keeps moving on its own.
We don't call ourselves a favourite — 322 reviews and a 4.8 rating on Google say the neighbourhood already has. What we can promise is what's been true since day one: real Italian bread, made fresh, made honest, made every single morning.
Authentic Italian bakery. From the pastries to the pizza al taglio to the sourdough — this is the real thing on Main Street.
The heart of Rome that beats in Toronto isn't a slogan when you walk in. The bread, the espresso, the people — all of it.
On Main Street in Toronto's Upper Beaches — a short walk from the streetcar, an easy stop on the way through the Beach. Paid street parking out front. Come for a slice at lunch, a cappuccino in the morning, or a tray for the family on the way home.
