Super high-quality goods at a great price, along with friendly service. You need to remember to bring cash - I suspect one way that prices can be kept low. (I try to use my credit card everywhere, but this and a couple places that require cash don't bother me. No reason for someone to give a "1" rating, that is for sure... I normally don't give too many reviews, but felt that I needed to balance out another one I just saw.) I have lived nearby for a number of years but always got my baked goods from Safeway or Co-op and the like, as I thought local bakeries would involve "boutique" prices. I wish I had gone in years sooner. I originally went in about a year ago when my parents were in town. My mother suffers from Celiac disease, and they had advertised gluten-free bread. (It is NOT a gluten-free bakery, but the bread was one item they made separately, and my mom - and the rest of us - thought it was really good.) From that experience with quality and service, as well as realizing the great prices, it's now a place I find myself frequenting weekly. You may find some items unavailable here and there, but there's always something good to pick up. I often go for the whole wheat bread, apple turnovers, strudel, cinnamon bread, and meat pies.

BRING CASH. Bring lots of cash! ( Cash only) I would give more stars if I could! 10/10. Moved to this area back in October and my nephew had told us about this bakery. So glad we gave it a shot! I've told my mom, my sister and she told her dad! Everyone loves this place. Quality, Local, Friendly, and awesome prices! Don't waste your money buying bread from big box stores and companies. This bakery sells everything from bread and buns, pastries and cookies, meat pies and sausage rolls (my favorite) and if you're lucky you just may be able to snag some cinnamon rolls (they're amazing) Anyways, stop reading this and go buy some buns

  • Annie Campbell

Canyon Meadows Bakery is excellent! We are so fortunate to have such a friendly family run establishment in Canyon Meadows. Heather and Stan are always so nice to chat with. Everything that Stan bakes is absolutely outstanding! Their chicken pot pies are so delicious! I love their Christmas mince meat tarts and their little pumpkin pies at Thanksgiving! It is all amazing! They also have a large selection of breads and a sticky cinnamon bread that is so good! If you are lucky enough to be in the area be sure to pop in to Canyon Meadows Bakery! You will be glad you did Annie Campbell

We sought out this bakery at the recommendation of a friend and I’m truly disappointed. We weren’t impressed that they accept cash only and thought that was a tad outdated for the times we live in. In all fairness their pastries may be very good but because I enjoy baking I very rarely purchase desserts. We did however purchase 3 different kinds of bread loaves and a dozen white buns all of which lack dept of flavour and and pretty much taste the same. Good luck getting a sandwich to hold its structure if you’re adding condiments.

  • Alex Dimitrov

Decided to check this place out today, but apparently they only take "cash or cheque", which is ridiculous in 2018. It literally takes no effort whatsoever to accept at least credit cards with a Square Reader, so I assume they just don't want to make money. My wife and I and one more customer had to leave the bakery with no product because of this. The bread selection was pretty miserable too with the shelves half empty. All they had was a few different types of excessively soft white bread. Not coming back.

  • Joe Frappier

Wonderful bakery that is almost 35 years old. The owners are very kind and genuine people. I visited there today after not having been since I was a child. Very reasonable prices and they haven't changed a thing (which is good!). I had a very nice visit with the owners reminiscing about my childhood field trip there and they still had my favorite confetti squares! You owe it to yourself to visit this bakery! P.s. they only accept cash and I like it that way.

  • Nikki Menzies

Oh. My. God. We needed a loaf of bread, and I was going to go to a store to grab one. My son encouraged me to check out the bakery. Immediately the lady recognized my son and was polite, friendly and treated him so respectfully and as a regular. I bought bread and a few treats and I am super impressed! The price is amazing, the quality is amazing and I will be going back! I don't even know if the bread will last the day, it's so yummy!!

  • Sazza Skeletons

Cream horns, vanilla slices, butterscotch slices, oh my! BEST OF THE BEST, her baking is absolutely delightful and most of all, memorable! My mum says it’s “proper dreams” as she enjoys her vanilla slice. I ordered a box of pastries but clearly did not bring home enough as the box disappeared before my eyes within minutes. I will be back for sure! Thank you for your amazing little bakery! What a hidden gem

  • Z Ahmed

Updating Aug 2022: Yes really an Amazing Bakery, the old fashion neighborhood Bakery, owned and run by Heather, and wow, I have been suffering with IBS and tried breads for lot of places, but bread from here and I feel normal, no bloating and absolutely amazing. She makes extremely tasty fruit Strudels. This is a truly Old Fashion Neighborhood Bakery Also this place is Cash Only! And I like it that way

  • Navah B

Cannot say enough about Canyon Meadows Bakery! It's a family run community bakery and the baking is nothing short of fantastic! Butterscotch brownies, strudels and almond buttons are our favourites, but literally everything they bake is crazy good! Very friendly owners as well makes it a favourite. Please note, it is cash only so make sure you have cash on you to avoid disappointment!

  • Andrea Cheng

This bakery has never disappointed. The donuts are light and fluffy and bring memories of childhood. The shortbread melts in your mouth as it should. Every bite gives you that sense of comfort and joy that good baking should. Remember to bring cash! But otherwise, it is a place to visit again and again, especially to pick up a bit of joy to bring to someone else!

  • CDY

How have I lived in this area for 10+ years and never been here?! Talk about a hidden gem! Owners are delightful and there is plenty of delicious sweet and savoury treats, of which we tried multiple. I would highly recommend this bakery for anyone in the south SW. Will be going here before Safeway going forward. Note: they only accept cash so go prepared.

  • TheDJ

Canyon Meadows Bakery made me a fantastic black forest cake for my birthday. They have lots of other goodies including breads, pastries, sausage rolls and meat pockets. My fave is the rum balls. We have been going to the Canyon Meadows Bakery since I was a kid, and that was 20 years ago. Delicious!

  • Carlo G.

Grew up in the area and somehow missed ever trying this bakery until recently. They make Cobs look like a joke. Provides superior bread and pastries at better prices, and way friendly staff. Has a really welcoming, almost small-town-feel as well. Can't wait to make it part of my routine shopping!

  • vic mendonsa

I come from a long line of bakers from both my mother's & father's sides of the family. The only words I have for this bakery are amazing, friendly, delicious & super delicious. Everything they make is great. I've got 3.5hrs to wait before they're open today & I can get my baking fix.

  • Peter Muras

Great little bakery and a local favourite. Delicious, traditional baked goods at very reasonable prices. Cash only (which helps keep the prices lower), so come prepared. There is an ATM at the convenience store on the south end of the strip mall in case you forget.

  • D. Lynne Francis

Nice prices, good looking items. Did not realize cash only (no signage outside; only found out once there and tried to buy things). Disappointing. I don’t live in area; tried on a whim cause wanted to surprise hubby with a treat. Hopefully can try in future.

  • Jessica Lauzon

Best treats I have had in forever . OMG everything from sweets to buns delicious. Worth your time to go sssoo good. Just remeber cash only go early in the morning lots to choose from throughout the day. Mmmhmmmm I would give her more if I could

  • Brian Flor

I purchased white chocolate macadamia nut cookies, chocolate chip cookies, an apple and strawberry strudel, and some hot dog buns. Everything was delicious. They only take cash so be sure to have some. I'll be back for more of everything.

  • Nathan Light

After a long day of work, me and my brother stopped by here for the 1st time and the scent of fresh baked goodies caught us like a fish on a hook. Definitely worth the visit. Loved the doughnuts straight up to the moon! Also bring cash

  • Joshua Ross

This place is amazing. It’s cash only so keep that in mind if you go but you’ll find your money goes a long way because their prices are so reasonable. The owners a lovely, kind, friendly, and excellent bakers. You won’t regret going.

  • M0 Bo

The prices are extremely fair considering the pastries and cookies are actually made in the back. I just had a rum ball from here. It cost 90 cents and it was massive. It was also chocolately and good and the best rum ball o ever had.

  • Leah Switzer

Delicious, quality sweets and savory treats and bread. And prices are unbelievable!! Moved recently to area and will be loyal for years.to come. Son loves meatpies, sausage rolls and strudel. +++ Everything. Thanks for being great.

  • Rocky Kwan

Great pricing and a very friendly family-run business. They have a good selection of baked goods and can also perform custom orders upon request. Make sure you go early, as a lot of the hot bakery breads sell out by mid afternoon

  • Stephanie Gabrielson

By far the absolute best bakery in all of Calgary! Very friendly and welcoming, an amazing assortment of goodies and breads! Absolutely fantastic cheese bread in my opinion, but seriously everything they make is phenomenal!

  • Chrissy Cameron

This place is a hidden gem! The majority of the goodies are under $1 (most are 85 cents). I got a whole bunch of things to try and the butterscotch bar was my favorite, highly recommend. I will definitely be back!

  • D V

Great baked goods but I really wish I didn’t have to pay with cash. So many times I’ve had to go to a different store because I didn’t have cash on me. Would pay an extra $1/item to be able to pay with debit.

  • David “Chap” Chapman

The kind of business that you want to include in any celebration. Exceptional bakery but when you leave with your treasures for special occassions you leave feeling they thoughtfully contribute to the event.

  • Mac Walter

Prices were so cheap for what we bought! We got sausage rolls, cheese buns, brownies, gluten free bread, and some cookies. They were absolutely phenomenal!!! If you like cheap and delicious food, go here!!!

  • Tammy Beaton

Tried cinnamon twists, veggie rolls, cheese bread and cinnamon buns. Cheese bread was the only hit in our house. I noticed it says cash only here which wasn’t on the website the other day.

  • Benjamin Stewart

Amazing, my favourite bakery in the city! I have gone here since I was a kid when my grandparents would bring me there, the bread is very good and my favourite treat there is the vanilla slices

  • Mathew T

30+ years of family run excellence. Calgary appreciates you! If anyone’s interested, the vanilla slices are actually a little slice of heaven... crazy right?!

  • Colie Stevenson

Only recently discovered this bakery and I'm so glad I did! Everything I try is absolutely delicious! And you can't beat the prices! A must try for anyone!!

A wonderful neighborhood bakery. Delicious beads and pastries, so many kinds of each. Support local, and in this case you'll be happy you did. Cash only.

  • Brenda lee doel

Thank so so much for the gorgeous cake. We love it so much. Great quality. Friendly service. Will recommend to my family and friends. …

  • Bluue

Wasn't thrilled with the baked goods. Somewhat dry. Flavorless. Can't comment on breads or cakes. Just individual baking. And they only take cash.

  • Erik Kruetzfeld

I went here nearly every day for 3 years while in high school, perhaps the best donuts and strudel I have ever had. The pie is also amazing.

  • Brenda Moriarty
