City Cafe Bakery

Kitchener, Ontario, Canada

The City Café Bakery is an old gas station that has been converted into a café. It is located near the north-west corner of Victoria Park, which is a nice place to go for a walk afterwards.

The café has bread for purchase, pastries, pizzas, and sandwiches during certain hours. It also has a unique payment system – one simply drops cash into the "money box". I don’t think they accept any alternative forms of payment, although I could be mistaken.

Money Box

They had a strange system where everything had two prices – one for eat-in, and one for take-out. The difference was not small, either – a pizza was $17 for eat-in, but $15 for take out. The only difference being that they cut it and served it to you for $2.

Cost

A single pizza was $17, although slices were available for $5.50. (It was expensive for the quality)

Croissant

Croissant

The croissant was tasty, as croissants usually are. There was nothing spectacular about it.

Pizza

pizza

This pizza is half chicken pesto, and half mushrooms and feta cheese. There was a good amount of pesto on the pesto and chicken pizza. It added quite a nice flavor. The mushroom and cheese pizza had a good number of mushrooms. The pizza dough was very dry and crispy – not oily at all. The pizza was good, but I didn’t think it was of superior quality to other “high end” pizzas – it wasn’t worth the $17.
