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 by 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 from Moving Coffee Roastery, 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.

Established in 1993, Swiss Bakery has grown from one room with a baking table to a beloved Mount Pleasant destination, serving Vancouver families, restaurants and specialty grocery stores as an artisan bread specialist. We pride ourselves on our deep knowledge of our craft, the warmth of our employees, and the loyalty of our Vancouver customers.  

We look forward to growing and innovating to serve you better, and we thank you for being part of our journey.
