Lakeview Bakery - Calgary, Alberta

Everything I bought was enjoyed to the max by all who ate it. They warmed up some sausage rolls for my husband that he regularly orders and loves. Got some hamburger buns that were SO fresh. One of the best lemon poppyseed muffins I’ve ever had. Even picked up some ... nice Kelowna organic salad dressing. My favourite purchase has to be the decorated sugar cookies. They were SO cute! Friendly cashiers. Amazing aroma. Well-organized shelving. Read more

I found this place pricey and bland. Ordered a variety of treats - quite basic. Wouldn't be back.

I have yet to find better GF sourdough bread than Lakeview makes- it's really outstanding. Most of their bread and buns are very good. However, I've noticed this bakery struggles with consistency in quality: the bread is often overbaked or underbaked, and the cupcakes are quite dry. The brownies and ... Nanaimo bar are almost always great, but their GF pastry needs work (it tastes like dense sand). Same with the cinnamon buns. The macarons are always delicious. The other GF baked goods are hit and miss. The prices are a bit high for (somewhat) mediocre quality, especially their cakes. $45+ for an 8 inch cake is on the high end. I inquired about a discount for bulk orders of cupcakes for a party but they said they don't offer one, so I chose another vendor in that case, as $4.50/cupcake wasn't in my budget. Overall, I really do like this place and will keep coming back because the staff are very nice and I haven't had problems when needing to exchange products that weren't quite up to standard. They also have one of the biggest selections of GF baked goods in the city. I think working on consistency and improving existing products would make this good bakery even better. Read more

Big selection of types of baked goods. From Vegan to Gluten Free to just real quality baked breads and pies. The apple strudel is the best I have had. Lots of parking. Many close by businesses

Lakeview just made my son a gluten-free, dairy-free chocolate cake that was absolutely amazing. Not only did it taste great, the decor and creativity that went into the cake was astounding. All of this with a one-day notice. Thanks again, we'll definitely be back!
