OLA BAKERY OAKVILLE — Restaurant in Oakville

it was my first and last time there it took me over 10 mins to find parking spot for not free of course... you don't have to give tip if you eat there but the atmosphere was not warm so I would not sit there I liked their vanilla doughnut(I bought 3), the rum ball was OK, THE APPLE PASTRY WAS HARD AND DRY, THE SHRIMP FILLED PASTRY WAS YUCK AND SMELLY

and the woman that served me did not even know exactly what they were having she told me one of the pastries was filled with beef and only when I wanted to get that it turned out it was pork which I hate... she was weird, first I asked her if I could have the vanilla donuts, she said"WHAT?" she said in a way like I was an alien asking for a glass of urine, what an idiot, why, what is it called if it's not doughnut? Moron, first of all it was not the Portuguese that invented it, second I'm sorry if I don't know the Spanish name for it. After that I asked if they had any cold meat that's made of beef and again she said "what" she did not know what cold meat was, but it's fine she should have just said ''pardon'' or ''excuse me I'm not sure what you are asking'' not saying ''what'' in a primitive way like a manner-less street beggar! She was English speaker but surely does not know the basic English vocabulary like ''pardon'' that is taught in primary schools...

So bottom line: it is not worth it for me to hunt and pay for parking spot to receive rude service, and they only...

We stopped by here to give this bakery another shot, people said it has changed and pretty good. We ordered croissant's that were on the counter, paid and thought ok kinda high but must be good. My wife and I tried one when we got home, we were so disappointed to find out some had chocolate in it and some had this yellow filling. We were not told these croissant's had filling in them and very disappointed this happened but luckily for us we did check, see our son has allergies to chocolate and if we didn't check by chance it would have been disastrous, if our son grab one and took a bite into it not knowing it had chocolate filling it could have been so harmful to him. Shame on this bakery for not lettings us know these croissant's had filling in them, when we asked and point to them we stated "could we have 6 of those plan croissant's please" at that point the person behind the counter could have said "sorry but these are not plan". NEVER returning here again, we could have had a huge situation with our son! Shameful!!!! Ooh and the lady behind the counter was not friendly at all, rude...

Amazing experience, Amazing service and amazing food. My husband took me to Ola bakery, we both had the "bife a casa" or house steak. All meals are served with two sides we both picked fries and salad. The fries were done perfectly and the garden salad with balsamic vinegar was to die for. The steak was fantastic and cooked perfectly to our specifications as well as the egg on top. To go with our meal we had a nice glass of house wine which was just slightly dry and not overly sweet. To finish off we had an espresso and brandy each and I must say it was the best espresso I've had in my life. Our dessert was mini sized custard tarts that were also the best I've ever had. On top of the Amazing food we were greeted nicely when we arrived and they made sure everything was perfect during our visit. I highly recommend this establishment for anyone wanting a great meal around great people, a nice high quality drink or some amazing housemade pastries or housemade bread. Will be returning for...
