Bakerbots Baking

What is Bakerbots Baking? Perched along the Bloor West strip at 1242 Bloor Street West near Margueretta, Bakerbots Baking is a quintessential neighborhood bakehouse founded by pastry chef Rosanne Pezzelli, who also co-founded Ossington’s famed Bang Bang Ice Cream. The compact space feels like an old-school patisserie workshop, centered around illuminated glass pastry counters and vintage-inspired touches. Seating is sparse and limited to a few window-facing stools, making it primarily a lively grab-and-go destination.

Bakerbots Baking Menu & What to Order While the pastry vitrine is loaded with flaky butter tarts, thick cinnamon rolls, and rich lemon cream tarts, the headliners are the customizable ice cream sandwiches made with fresh-baked cookies or choux pastry puffs and Bang Bang ice cream scoops. Go for the Burnt Toffee ice cream paired with a spiced ginger molasses or chewy rococoa cookie, or grab a tub of their rich banana pudding layered with vanilla wafers. Plant-based visitors will find vegan cookie varieties and dairy-free sorbets, while espresso beverages and iced coffees round out the counter. If you only leave with one thing, get the ice cream puff stuffed with salted caramel or passion fruit.

Know Before You Go Bakerbots runs strictly on a walk-in, counter-service model, with pastry sellouts common by late afternoon and weekend evening lines snaking out the door for ice cream. The shop is a short walk from Lansdowne and Dufferin subway stations with metered street parking along Bloor, operating Tuesday through Sunday and closed on Mondays.
