Came here for a sweet treat date last weekend. We had the apple tart and chocolate hazelnut cake. Both were so so good and I would definitely get them both again. Would have given this place 5 stars if the service was better (they were out of water and made it seem like an annoyance when we asked them to refill the jug, also not super personable in general...good thing the treats are great here... more

As far as I'm concerned, the macarons here are pretty good. I've never been a huge fan of them because I always found them too sugary, sweet, or artificial tasting.. but I suppose that's because my first experience having them wasn't that great.

I received a gift box today of 6 assorted flavours and though I can't pinpoint exactly which ones were which, I enjoyed the pistachio and cassis ones... more

My favourite little café in Leslieville! The interior is spacious and bright, with giant windows looking out onto Queen St. I always order a cup of tea and an excellent macaroon, and the people who work there don't mind if you set up camp and work for several hours. The place always smells incredible, and there are bouquets of fresh plants and flowers on each of the tables, which really adds to... more

Bobette and Belle is a super cute and has an awesome interior design for a pastry store.

Long and behold, Bobbette and Belle is where I lost my macaron virginity and could never stop devouring another one of these beauties again. Although it is far from most of core Downtwon Toronto and literally a streetcar mission away, it's definitely worth it!

I went in today to pick up a beautiful cupcake for my good friend's son's first birthday. We were met with horrible service, and a ridiculous wait time. My friend requested a fresh cupcake from the back and was greeted with a lot of attitude.

I was planning a wedding for a friend and she decided to order Bobbette & Belle's macaroon tower. Visually it was great and the taste of it was also great. Problem is their customer service.

So I called a day in advance to confirm the order and delivery time, no one answered the phone... more

I purchased macarons and a hazelnut chocolate cake here for my birthday. The cake was incredible. I have dreams about it. It's on the expensive side, but for any special occasion, this is the place to go. It's right next to a streetcar stop as well, so very easy to get to.

Bobbette & Belle...I just love the name!

On Monday afternoon, my boyfriend and I were in the area for dinner and I checked to see if there were any good desserts nearby (as always...with a sweet tooth like mine!). Bobbette & Belle came up and there was no way we were going to drive away without trying a cupcake, cake, and/or macarons.

As we stepped into this pastry shop, it was quite evident... more

Super cute shop.
Had a hazelnut cupcake and the Fleur De Sel chocolate cookie.
Neither was tasty or decadent or awesome quality.
The shop is super cute to hang out in for 30+ something women.

One afternoon in Leslieville, my friends and I were walking as much as possible to burn off the brunch we'd had at Lady Marmalade. During our stroll, we encountered a sandwich board sign that claimed "best carrot cake in Toronto!" The shop was Bobbette & Belle, and despite our calorie-burning mission, we had to try it.

First off, this cake is many layers, and the piece they give you is huge,... more

Really fancy deco. Friendly staff.
Ordered toffee pudding and macaroons.
The pudding is really sweet, but that's it: sweet. Nothing special.
The macaroons are also average. Single layer, monotonous flavor. Crust is not crispy enough. Good thing is that it's not over sweet.

This is one of my favourite places for cupcake and macarons. They usually have a good variety of macarons and the flavours are a bit more different than the regular chocolate and vanilla ones. They are quite expensive but well worth it. The cupcakes are also very fluffy and moist. I tend to like my cupcakes that way.

Their regular cakes, however, aren't up to par. It tasted like any other cake... more

I ordered my wedding cake with cupcakes here a few years back and decided to come back and try their mango passion fruit cupcake. The cupcake itself was drier than I remembered, the cream on top was okay. I also had their pistachio macaron and Heavenly cream. It was a disaster. The outer shell was uneven and didn't melt away when you bite it. The centre where the cream is was hard and chewy. I... more

Best chai tea latte in town. Macarons were light and fluffy, but for some reason none of the flavours I tried stood out. I'm a passion fruit macaron addict, but the ones at Bobbette just didnt blast me with flavor. This place must be where all the cool kids go. I did not want to leave, the place was totally me.

The most amazing, crispy yet chewy, crackly yet soft, giant, fluffy, sandwich sized tiramisu macaron of life lives in this store. And you can take her home for the very affordable price of $5. With a filling of espresso ganache rolled in cacao bits, this is the macaron that all other baby macarons aspire to be when they grow up. Go get one now and thank me later!

I've never been to their actual store, but I tried their macarons at a Yelp event. They were the best macarons I've ever had, including those I tried in Paris. The marshmallow was gooey without being too sweet, the salted caramel was the perfect combination of salty and sweet, and the chocolate had the slightly crispy quality of the top of a brownie. Amazing.

The interior is dressed up like an expensive French shabby chic furniture store. I saw lovely ladies doing the lovely tea social thing here. It could be a bit pretentious, but in laid-back Leslieville, it's somehow not.
