Sweet Lee's Boulangerie Rustique

I ordered an iced matcha & it cost me 8 bucks for this… if you know matcha you know it's supposed to be way darker. I've gotten more concentrated matchas at other places for 2 dollars less. I expected better for the price. It also took almost 20min before they got to my order. Don't get me wrong the place is calm & beautiful & the staff was sweet. I'm just disappointed that I paid for matcha flavoured milk instead of a proper one.

I never leave bad reviews, but this place pissed me off. First time going back since it changed owners in 2024, & I'm not coming back.

First of all, the decor is super tacky now. Very'live, laugh, love,' with absolutely no personality, like you're standing in the sale section of Winners.

When you wait in line, there's no sign telling you where to order or where to grab your order. Everyone was so confused that the people in front of me even had to ask one of the girls working there. There's no menu at all behind the counter. You have to look around to finally find a pile of white menus at the counter.

The girl taking orders was super sweet but very, very shy, probably because she doesn't really speak French, & she was forgetting half of everyone's order. But she was much better than the girl making our coffees, who was rude to everyone who dared to ask her a question & seemed to be trying as hard as she could not to look at a single customer.

& the food... oh boy. How can cookies taste stale, wet & flavourless all at once? What used to be a place full of delicious sandwiches & mouth-watering pastries now offers sad bagels & pastries that are trying to be trendy but look half-melted.

Shame on you for keeping the original name of the place & banking on the love of people who used to come to the original.

Horrible service, & served spoiled food!

Ordered at cash simple lunch, quiche & salad & roll & salad which are all ready & displayed. 40 minutes later we did not receive anything & asked. We see 2 staff & the owner going through their machine & then we receive a veggie roll (ordered & paid for chicken which we paid more for) & veg quiche instead of ham, again served the cheaper food we paid for the most expensive one.

The roll & quiche were cold! 1/4 of the way heated!!

Both salad had lettuce that was bad (red or brown on stem). What makes it worse is I saw the owner portion the salad. She knowingly served customers salad that has gone bad.

I later realized people are there just there to sit on their computers with a beverage. No one is there to to drink.

I miss how sweet lees was before it was sold to these people.

Très bon dîner : des plats frais, bien présentés & parfaitement assaisonnés. Le personnel est accueillant & le service efficace. L'endroit offre une atmosphère conviviale qui donne envie de revenir.

Un endroit vraiment charmant ! Le café est excellent, les pâtisseries sont délicieuses - surtout la tarte au citron - & le décor crée une ambiance chaleureuse. Le service est attentionné & toujours souriant. Une adresse où l'on revient avec plaisir.

Where do I begin?
What used to be the choice for many people as a neighborhood favorite is now a mere shadow of itself.

The food has become much more expensive...
the choices are limited...
& the quality is very inconsistent.
The service varies from indifferent to rude.

The general atmosphere is clean, but very beige & formulaic.
The former rustic charm has been painted over (literally) in favor of a beige'trendy' esthetic.

At least, the new owners had the decency to drop the'Rustic' from the store's name.
However, they still use the name'Sweet Lee's' ... an insult to the previous owners' legacy.

This is a short update as of 30th of August, 2026.
Things have not improved...
It's still over-priced...
Quality is still subpar ...
Service is random.
I've noticed other clients of the REAL Sweet Lee's are also very disappointed.
Truly a shame!

J'étais une cliente régulière, mais depuis quelques temps je constate que les pâtisseries ont un goût de'passé'. Je pense notamment aux gateaux au fromage. J'ai pris celui aux oreos & je suis certaine que cela faisait + de 2 jours qu'il était dans la vitrine. Il avait pris le goût des autres choses dans la vitrine. Bref c'était pas frais. Vu le prix, ce n'est pas normal......

Everything we ordered was very old, almost inedible, really sad.
