The Persian man employees aren't the nicest customer service people I've encountered. I had to stop in and pick up my grandson's 100% WW bread, and the woman was very rude on the phone. I needed to make sure they had some, so I called and asked if they could pit some aside, and I would be there right after 11a.m. She snapped, "Well, I'll see what I can do, but I need some for the shelves, too." I said if you have the loaves, I want what difference is it if I come right now or in an hour and a half???? This is exactly the reason I stopped shopping here. Certain employees here can be very rude. If you're having a bad day first thing in the morning, I'm sorry, but don't take it out on me.
Update January 2020
Down from 5 stars.
I don't shop here anymore because of the pink haired lady.
Customer service has gone downhill. The woman who dyes her hair pink is rude and short tempered. I don't go here anymore because of the repeated rudeness from her.
For anyone that has adverse reactions to eating soy products, the rye bread is not only very good but it has no soy. The deli meats are great. Persians are awesome!! There's quite a few different desserts to choose from or sit down have a coffee or tea and try one of their sandwiches with their fresh, delicious ingredients. The staff are very friendly and courteous.
Love their loyalty program, buy 10 loaves of any bread except white, and get 1 free. Their white bread is buy 2 get 1 free!! They also have some specialty Italian products on the shelves that I can't find anywhere else that I go to.
I recommend Bennett's Bakery & Deli to all my friends and family and have taken more than a few dozen Persians to out of town friends.

The recipe must have changed because at one time you could taste a lot more cinnamon.

These delicious bakery treats are like nothing I have ever had! Worth the drive from southern Ontario. Brought home a big box and savoured them. We could only share a few.
They were THAT GOOD!
