| - Pros:
Items are well made and fresh
Cons:
A little on the pricey side
If you've ever been to a Michel's Baguette location before, you know what to expect. Well made pastries and other items made well and fresh. This location upholds the tradition.
In the past, I used to go to the Michel's whenever I was at Yorkdale. However, going to Yorkdale nowadays is just not worth it if you ask me. It was nice to see this location pop up at Fairview mall. It's not as big as the one at Yorkdale, but it's definitely much quieter and more enjoyable because of that if you ask me. I can sit back, relax and have a nice conversation with someone here without much noise interfering with that.
Michel's has a variety of freshly baked goods available right at the front. If you move further in, there's a counter that makes fresh breakfast items and sandwiches/wraps as well. I've been here twice for breakfast so for now I can only comment on the pastries and breakfast items. The croissants here are pretty good, Crispy on the outside, buttery good on the inside. I've gotten the bagelwich breakfast sandwich every time and I love it here. They're always made fresh to order.
I like how after you order, you just pick a seat and they bring everything to you after it's done. They also clear the table for you. You just leave everything on the table and they take care of it for you. Service here is very good. I've not had a bad experience whatsoever yet.
My bagelwich and a large milk will set you back about $8. It's not horrible, but it could be better as well. Expect to pay a little premium when you come into a place like this. Like I said, it's not overboard and in most cases worth the little extra.
All in all, I really like this place. Anytime I'm at Fairview, most likely I will definitely stop by.
