The idea was simple in the beginning. Original founders of the beloved Chez Piggy Restaurant, Rose Richardson & Zalman Yanovsky, wanted to open a small bakery to provide hand-made bread that would sufficiently complement their restaurant’s menu. From that small seed, grew Pan Chancho Bakery & Café ~ a dazzling European style bakery, a gourmet food shop and a dine in café. The bustling retail store provides shoppers with artisanal breads, pastries, cakes and delectable desserts; gourmet grab and go deli items such as daily soups, sandwiches, pizza, salads and frozen goods; a fantastic array of local farm fresh produce ~ cheese, eggs, milk, greens, sausage and bacon, imported olive oil, olives + our very own line of frozen meals. We are the perfect choice for catering your business lunch, special occasion party or a more lavish affair entertaining guests at home.
Venture further into this heritage landmark to our dine-in café serving breakfast, lunch and all day brunch seven days a week with a menu that takes you on a global world tour. We are fully licensed with local beers, signature cocktails and a Canadian wine selection. Enjoy summer in the city on our courtyard patio or book the private dining room for a more intimate gathering. Everything within our walls is made from scratch daily, with love, using the freshest ingredients and locally sourced products whenever possible. Pan Chancho is a family owned and operated local favourite, an adventure for the senses.
