| - Annina's is cozy, warm, and delicious. Located Northeast of Whitchurch-Stouffville, it's the perfect restaurant to drive to whether you're coming from the GTA or are a local, as you pass rural landscapes of farms and rolling hills.
We came here after hearing good things about Annina's from my aunt's friends, so one sunny afternoon, my aunt and I decided to check it out.
Annina's has a large variety of baked goods - from butter tarts, mini pies, and cookies to brownies and apple pie pastries. They also have a menu suited for breakfast, lunch, and early dinner offering items such as soups, burgers, salads, sandwiches & wraps, and pasta. My aunt and I ended up ordering a Skor butter tart, a couple of milk chocolate cookies, a grilled chicken sandwich with bacon, lettuce, tomatoes, and a chipotle type sauce, and coffee. We took our baked goods and coffee to their upstairs dining room while my aunt waited for her sandwich to come (they bring you the food if it isn't ready to serve right from the counter).
On our way home, we bought more baked goods for the rest of the family - a regular butter tart ($2.95ea), a mini strawberry rhubarb pie, a mini blueberry pie (mini pies were $4.50ea), a raspberry-filled glazed cookie, a Skor cookie & another milk chocolate cookie (cookies are $0.75ea/$8.50 dozen), and an apple pie pastry.
The store also sells baked breads (made in-store), condiments (dressings, mustards, pickles, honey, jams, etc. ), and has a fridge & freezer section for meat pies & quiches, etc.
The food is very yummy - butter tarts are sweet but not so crumbly, which I appreciate. The cookies are nice little treats and the mini pies are great - not overly flaky, a bit tender, and filled with flavour. My family really liked their apple pastries and my aunt enjoyed her chicken sandwich - it was pretty big and filled with fresh ingredients. I really enjoyed the coffee they serve - smooth and well-roasted.
Service here is friendly and helpful - the server was good with recommending different things to try out and was patient with us the whole time.
The upstairs dining setting is really cozy - it's a dining area split into sections where there are booths, lounge chairs and tables, a counter with seats, and regular tables big enough for 4-6 people each. The upstairs area can probably hold up to 20-30 people. In the summer, they provide outdoor seating (not upstairs, just outside near the front doors).
I definitely recommend Annina's - whether you're passing by, on a road trip, or want to make it here as a mini day trip, Annina's baked goods, coffee, and foods are delicious and perfect for any day.
