B's Bake Shoppe — Restaurant in Canby

There's really just something about a bakery that gets to my heart. The display of freshly baked things, the smells, watching the magic unfold as piles of pillowy dough are worked before becoming delightful loaves of bread. B's Bake Shoppe is the kind of place that has made sourdough bread and other treats a staple in Canby and my heart is happy for that. I stopped by the other day for lunch and to check out the newly expanded dining space. Lots of room to enjoy your time, and even have a lunch date or meeting at spacious tables. You’ll find a great lunch menu featuring their in-house bread, but also breakfast items and an espresso menu. I ordered the tomato soup and a chicken salad sandwich. It was all so good! The chicken salad was perfect. Not too gooey (from mayo, you know?), and had the perfect balance of flavor from what I thought was tarragon and fennel. Sometimes chicken salad can have too much red onion, but this was a fantastic balance with tiny diced pieces rather than giant hunks. The iced latte I had was also perfect. It's worth the stop...and do take home a loaf of freshly...

I had business in Canby Friday morning, so I looked for a good breakfast place. So glad I stopped at B's.

If anything is better than an egg sandwich on a honey-glazed rosemary biscuit, I'm not sure what it is. (And, yes, that biscuit has a bit of crunch in the crust and soft, fluffy insides.) The hot chocolate was delicious, too.

Other sandwich options that day were a croissant or a sourdough English muffin, so basically you couldn't go wrong.

And I was unable to resist getting a couple pastries to go. (A brownie and a mini marionberry crumb cake — yum! The brownie didn't even make it home.)

Next time I might take advantage of the outdoor picnic table seating, but the inside is inviting and comfortable. The people are great, too, and the service is fast and efficient.

If more people knew about this place, it would be standing-room only. Definitely worth the short drive off the...

Update - went here again. Quite delicious. Had a latte then a slice (huge!) of the morning glory quick bread. Very satisfying and could have shared between two! But didn't. A very enjoyable place to sit, nosh and chat.

A wonderful bake shop with delicious coffee and very fine baked goods. Plenty of room to sit. Well lit rooms with large windows. Attractive painted walls with stylish beehive pattern. I ordered one of the breakfast sandwiches on an English Muffin - delicious. I asked and they told me that ALL the baked goods are made in house. I liked the English Muffin so much I purchased more to bring home plus a focaccia and a croissant. They have all kinds of baked goods -loaves of sourdough and other bread, cookies, pastries, macarons, muffins etc. I'm very happy that this is a small local business serving their own baked goods and will...
