Our Story
“From our hands to yours”
The Swiss Bakery team
On a rainy Vancouver day, stepping into Swiss Bakery is like stepping into the warmth of your Mother’s kitchen. The smell of cinnamon buns fill the air, umbrellas pile up by the door and everyone jockeys for the best spot to eye up the day’s offerings of sweets and sandwiches piled high in the display case. There is a hum of anticipation in the air.
Construction workers, art students, tech employees, an elderly customer picking up his wife’s favourite cake for their wedding anniversary, and families popping buy after soccer practice: whether you are a first time customer or you’ve been a regular for twenty years, you are family. The staff knows you, the bread and pastries are always handmade and baked fresh, and the place you came as a child with your parents, is now the place you bring your own children.
From grab-and-go sandwiches and soups, fresh coffee, danishes, German pretzels, donuts, our famous frissants, and cakes for any special occasion, Swiss Bakery is here for you. We are proud to be part of your Vancouver tradition.

PRETZEL
The soft, traditional German pretzel is one of Swiss Bakery’s specialties. The pretzel boasts a knot-like shape and is great for a bite any time of the day.
Croissant
It’s a Viennoiserie pastry born in Austria, raised by France, and later adopted by Swiss Bakery. We are proud to say that our croissants are laminated in 81 layers with real butter before finishing off in either sweet or savory choices.
