I’m in love with this cute and tiny shop that has a buttery aroma once you walk in! I just died and went to heaven!!! Who can resist butter!!! The place has limited seating if you prefer to dine in and enjoy your scone paired with one of their beverages! We ordered a dozen scones to go along with an Americano & a jasmine green tea! Their Americano hit the spot in the early morning! The aroma was so hard to wait to devour at home so we enjoyed the Eggies scone & cherry double chocolate inside the shop! The Eggies scone was to die for! The texture of the scone was amazing paired with an oozing egg dripping over the fluffy scone! Oh my god! Every bite was heavenly! The cherry double chocolate scone was not overly sweet with the right amount of chocolate and cherry! Mm! I highly recommend this little gem! Definitely the best scones I’ve had in Toronto!

This place is a lovely spot for morning tea. We arrived on a Saturday morning, and the place was already bustling with customers. We ordered: one savoury scone(cheddar and chive — so fresh), one sweet scone(salted caramel), and two teas. Our total came to, roughly, less than $ 15. We definitely enjoyed the savoury scone more than the sweet — the cheddar and chive was soft and flavourful, while the salted caramel wasn’t as soft and flakey(perhaps because it wasn’t as warm and just-out-of-the-oven as the cheddar and chive, leaving a slightly hard exterior). Regardless, overall, this was a sweet, light morning treat and combined with the endearing atmosphere, I would definitely drop by again when I’m in the area. Note that seating is limited, but if you have a chance to snag a table, grab one and enjoy the lovely, charming atmosphere, as a nice way to begin your morning. Note also that parking on some side streets are free on Saturdays.

It’s my Saturday morning crack. The salted caramel are to die for — especially when straight out of overn. Good coffee too. Jammies and salmon sandwiches are good too, albeit a bit pricey. Good americanos complete the ritual. Also, nice staff…

Baker and Scone is great! It is in my neighbourhood and is one of my favourite places. Definitely has the best scones I have ever tasted!

Without being the least but hyperbolic, these are THE best scones you’ll ever taste. Golden and flakey on the outside, soft and bursting with flavour on the inside. They have a huge selection that varies from day to day, with somethings for every tastebud: From cheddar, chive and dill, to smoked salmon w/lemon ricotta, to my personal addictive favourite, salted caramel. It’s completely ruined scones from any other establishment for me forever, not kidding… they’re that good. What’s nuts is that the quality control is off the charts; each one is as perfectly made as the other… no easy feat when you taste how good they are. Honesty can’t recommend it enough!

Baker and Scone is a small pretty shop. There are not so many seat, but I have a cup of tea and scone sometimes. The scones are not bad but not excellent either. I thought it is a little bit expensive.

This is a dainty place located on St. Clair. There is limited seating so you may have to wait in line if going for brunch in a weekend. There are savory and sweet scones available. I went with the spinach scone and a soup. The made-from-scratch soup was very tasty and the scone was delectable. If you’re craving a scone, this is definitely the place to be!

The kind of place that makes you want to run home and bake something yourself! The scones are OK, not extraordinary, had the«salad nicoise» scone, should be re-named«opened a can of tuna fish and added half an olive». Soup of the day badly needed salt, and the advertised Gruyère cheese in said soup would be a nice touch. When an establishment offers sit in eating, it should run like a restaurant, not just a bus stop with food. Salt and Peppes and napkins would be a good start. A pretty blonde hipster boy serving blends into the twee décor quite nicely. Extremely overpriced for what they are selling.

This place is adorable. Amazingly delicious scones, sweet and savory and the selection is always different. So so so so good. For real. So good. I love them. They also make a great americano. Whats the point of delicious baked goods if they are not accompanied by equally good coffee? No point! I just love this place. I like to hit it up this place before the farmers market on Saturdays. I do wish it was open later on week night evenings so I could eat scones in the evenings as well!

A co-worker brought in salted caramel scones from here — delicious and now can’t wait to check this place out. Perfect balance with the sweet and salty flavours.

A great hipster hangout for scones that are quite delicious, if not the most expensive ones I’ve ever encountered. The scones vary from salted caramel to vanilla and more. They seem to be a bakehouse that pretty much only bakes scones and serves coffee. Worth a try but I wouldn’t go out of my way for it.

This place is great for lazy yet impatient folks such as myself who sleep too late and don’t want to wait in the bloodbath brunch line at The Stockyards next door. I had smoked salmon on a scone with a side of eggplant soup, which was the shock winner. Delicious! They have great fluffy scones both sweet and savoury with flavours on rotation. But I’m not going to pretend I have a delicate refined palate, I only settled on this after having a short hangry tantrum outside Stockyards before remembering that B&S has the BEST homemade lemon curd of life. Don’t let it sneak past you on the menu. Do what I did, take it home and snort it through your eyeballs.

A high-quality coffee shop & bakery in a beautiful bright space on St. Clair West. I love coming here on a weekend morning to eat scones, drink coffee, and people watch. The space looks like a gallery: white walls, tall ceilings, large windows, and minimalist décor. The kitchen is open-concept and the baking takes place in front of your eyes! The scones come in a variety of flavours — sweet or savory. My favourite is the egg scone — an herbed scone with a yolky center. Mmmmmm! The coffee is very well-made which, if you know St. Clair West, is a rarity on this strip. The iced coffee is also great. The bathrooms are extremely clean! Simply being inside this space will make you happy.

I love my scones and this place delivered. There is a cool variety, the price is comparable to Second Cup/Starbucks types($ 2.60 or so) and THEYARESOGOOD. We had 2: a salted caramel(yes, salted caramel!) and berry white chocolate chip one. It comes with butter that is just the perfect temperature to add to your scone without fuss. I also had an Americano and my brother had a tea. Both good, sliiiiightly more than at a regular café, but totally worth it. Delicious place. Only complaint: jam is extra/$ 1.50 for a teeny jar, and there is no patio/outdoor seating which, in the summer, sucks. Otherwise this place is super cute and delicious and worth checking out.

I have been procrastinating about writing a review for Baker and Scones. After a month long scone exchange with my colleague from Starbucks, Timothy’s Coffee, Brick Bakery, My Market Bakery, Jimmy’s, and Panera Bread, to name a few, I am happy to declare two things — 1) I still fit in my dresses and pants, 2) Baker and Scones has the best scone in town. It was love at first sight! These scones are heavenly — crusty exterior with a flakey buttery interior. Fresh scones come out of the oven around the clock! There are ample incredible flavours to choose from — Fresh Blueberry Vanilla, Old White Cheddar Fill and Chive, Feta and Spinach, ect. While Baker and Scones are known for scones, their soup of the day was also phenomenal. I had the bowl-licking Tuscan Kale Soup! Who can resist a bowl of hearty soup with a warm scone on a cold rainy day! Baker and Scones has captured my heart!

We just had lunch at The Stockyards next door and was pretty full but we just couldn’t resist going in Baker and Scone(@bakerandscone) when we pass by. It has been on my to eat list and I promised myself I’ll just share one and we need coffee anyway, right?! You’ll fall in love with this place as soon as you open the door with the buttery smell surrounding you, it’s just heavenly and I can sit there inhaling the goodness all day long. Immediately fell in love with the scone display in all the different size and shape of jars(if you ask any of my friends, you’ll find out I have an addiction for them) Dark Chocolate Cherry Scone ~ Perfect!!! Combination of flaky, extra crusty exterior and a very moist interior. ~ This was so good especially with the sprinkle sugar on top which gave it an added texture. ~ You can also get a mini jar of Greaves Jam for $ 1.80 but the scone was so good as it that we ended up bringing the jar home. Cappuccino ~ Since we are eating in, wish they served coffee in a cup instead of Styrofoam cup #gogreen Verdict: ~ Seating wise, there was only 4 small table of 2 at the front. ~ Loved it!!! Will have to come back to try the other flavors especially the Savory ones. ~ They always have a gluten free option available

3.5 stars. I love scones! So much so that I’d trek from Markham to get here to try some of these dough babies. And I was not disappointed. However I have to say, their scones are a bit different. Its not the flaky buttery type you are used to. It’s more of a half flaky, half croissant like interior. I still like it but totally not authentic to me. I do however loveeeee their flavour profiles. Their vanilla scone with orange jam was excellent. Their salted caramel scone was unique. Their cheddar and chive one was delicious with softened butter. They also serve up caffeinated drinks in a lovely little shop with modern white furnishings giving it a clean and fresh look. No Wi-Fi available though and the space itself is small so get the scones to go… Or bring just your bestie and leave the rest at home.

I made it a point to go here on a stormy Sunday morning as I was craving baked goods and what better way to satisfy a craving than waking up at 9 am and driving 20 mins through a storm to find parking space that was now a snow bank… Yahhhh I get a little crazy when I crave food… Solo it was cold outside and inside…*sigh* I wish the heater was on especially as customers kept leaving the door open. The café was really nice, white walls, very clean and chic. There were 4 tables for 2 and a bar that seats 4 along the window. A lot of customers came for scones to go. At $ 2.95 each. We got the eggy and the cheddar and chives to share. A chair latte and cappuccino and it came to $ 18. Which seemed a little steep but we were full after so I guess it was worth it. But we got the salted caramel and apricot jammie to go. The eggy was good. The eggy was soft and slightly runny. The scone was actually the chive and cheddar scone. The chive and cheddar on its own was also good. The disappointing part was that the scones were cold and therefore hard… So I didn’t enjoy it as much as the ones I brought home and reheated. The salted caramel and apricot jam filled scone were delicious when warmed. Crunchy in the outside and soft inside. Sweet but not overly. Tasted the flavors. Would recommend this place and would definitely be back to pick up sweet scones!

Amazing scones! It’s about $ 2.75 per scone which are freshly baked and have a nice crispy layer. It’s even plated for you with a homemade pat of butter when you eat in. Some flavours I’ve tried are pear hazelnut, pumpkin spice and lemon blackcurrent — all which were amazing. I’ll have to try the savoury ones esp the one with the egg in the middle. The space has a cute twee-hipster vibe that would make Wes Anderson and Zooey Dechanel happy.
