I donât usually leave reviews, but Sweet Revenge Bakery was such a disaster I feel like I need to warn others.
Letâs start with the ownerâshe is hands down one of the rudest and most unprofessional people Iâve ever encountered in any business. She acts like sheâs doing you a favor just by letting you in the door. I made the mistake of giving some polite, constructive feedback, and she completely lost itâangry, defensive, and downright disrespectful. It was honestly shocking. She clearly canât handle even the slightest criticism without flying off the handle, which creates the most uncomfortable, toxic atmosphere.
Then thereâs the serviceâif you can even call it that. I was the ONLY customer in the store, and it still took them 15 minutes to make two simple drinks. No complicated orders, nothing specialâjust two basic drinks. How does that even happen when the place is empty? The staff looked lost and didnât seem to care one bit. No apology, no acknowledgment of how slow they were, just pure laziness and disorganization.
The food? Completely overpriced and so not worth it. For what they charge, I expected something special, but the pastries were bland, dry, and honestly felt like theyâd been sitting out all day. Iâve had better treats from a gas station. Charging premium prices for subpar food is bad enough, but pairing that with horrendous service is just insulting.
The whole vibe in the place is awful too. With the ownerâs horrible attitude setting the tone, itâs uncomfortable from the second you walk in. This is supposed to be a bakery where you can relax and enjoy a treat, but instead, youâre stuck in this tense, negative environment.
In short, this place is a complete joke. Overpriced, slow, and run by someone who clearly has no idea how to treat customers. There are plenty of bakeries out there that actually care about their food and their patronsâthis is definitely not one of them. Do yourself a favor and avoid this place...
   Read moreIt looks like the donuts being discontinued had this place take a turn for the worst. It was on a downward spiral, but this last visit exemplified everything wrong with the place. If you're going to sit down here, do prepare for a daycare vibe as the owner/an employee keeps an infant around along with I assume are relatives. No idea the frequency of these occurrences, but it's good to note for anyone that's looking to dine in. An entire table is taken up when this happens, so that eliminates another seating area. Said owner/employee does not have an inside voice and lacks courtesy for projection so your conversation may very well be interrupted.
The food and drinks are officially subpar. They are clinging for a few months, but there seems to be major issues with the production. My coffee was below lukewarm, to the point where it was nearly room temperature. The pastry I got, despite being asked for being heated, came out nearly the same temperature as the coffee. With the donuts gone, there's really nothing to gravitate towards here. I wish I could say I will be reassessing the gelato...
I hope the Langley space improves on bringing in cafes that have a focus and put out good product. We'll see how long that takes since its patrons seem to be content with Starbucks and whatever overpriced pastry place already...
   Read moreSome of the reviews here are incredibly silly. I came in to buy a strawberry short cake for my husbandâs birthday. It was absolutely delicious and just the kind of premium cake I was looking for. As soon as I walked in I could tell this was a bakery that catered to vegans and people with gluten allergies as well. Iâm not vegan and not a fan of vegan pastries so Iâm not going to order it because I know I wonât like it. Some of the reviews seem like people who didnât read, bought something vegan and then complained about the taste đ Iâm sorry but thatâs on you. To the person who complained about the price and said they could have gotten more from Denyâs đ¤Łđ¤Łđ¤Ł you had me rolling. The prices are listed, if you think theyâre too high then go to Denyâs, no one is stopping you. Iâm not going to compare a fine italian restaurant for example, with a pizza from Fresh Slice 𤣠thatâs hilarious. Parking does suck, but I donât see how the owner has any control over that. People do know we are in a housing crisis right? What do they think businesses pay for their location? It must be very high. And this is a small local business. That being said I still have to try more of their offerings, but staying away from the vegan stuff as I generally donât...
