Patties Express - Toronto, Ontario

I had a chicken patty and coco bread. The coco bread was underwhelming, should have just been called bread. The patty itself had very basic chicken, with the taste of chicken stock. I don't think that's what the flavour profile should be, it's not a chicken soup patty.

Um. Nice try, but... I had high hopes for this Beef Patty and Coco Bread establishment, but those hopes have fallen down the gutter. Considering I grew up in the beef patty and Coco Bread World, I'm sort of an expert on the matter. The patty/pastry itself was not flakey at all! It ... had the consistency of cardboard instead. How can you produce a beef patty that isn't flakey? The meat was more of a watered-down mushy runny stew with no taste. Kind of like baby food. The Coco bread was very thin and doughy. I could still smell the flour. That's definitely NOT coco bread it was more like a hamburger bun. And a bad one at that. Also, why is the filling so hot? Are you trying to give people 3rd degree burns? There is no reason why the filling has to be so hot. Eaton Centre Location: There's also a very strange angry vibe about this place. Not the kind of energy that's very inviting. Oh well. D- for the beef patty F for the Coco bun. Read more

Good... not great. Spicy beef patty's filling was a too runny, like oozing out. Taste was okay as was the pastry. Spicy chicken was interesting... better flavour and viscosity than the beef. Veggie filling reminded me of a Swanson's chicken pie's filling flavour-wise. The veggies were quite respectable both in quantity and texture ... (not under or over cooked). Pastry had a different look and feel, presumably made out of different ingredients and/or cooked differently. It was nice to try, but I wouldn't add it as a regular food option when grabbing lunch. No grade for atmosphere because it's a food court. Read more

If you're in downtown Toronto, you gotta go for some authentic Jamaican patties in the 6! I was visiting the Eaton center and was lucky enough to google this gem. Cocobread with pattie #tw

Dough and filling ratio was just perfect for a snack size. Filling was flavorful and dough was flaky. Would not say it is the best patty in Toronto but for downtown with $2.50 per patty, not too bad.
