Skookumchuck Bakery & Cafe

I love this spot!! It’s super cozy, delicious pastries & the service is super sweet. Love the patio and interior of the bakery as well! My favorite was the banana chocolate loaf 😋

Stopped here after hiking The Narrows and it did NOT disappoint. Cinnamon roll was delicious, and so was the London Fog/Caramel Latte we ordered. So good that we went back the next day at opening for more cinnamon rolls and found out they have MASSIVE (I'm talking the size of my hand) cinnamon buns on Saturdays. Do not miss this bakery if you are in the Egmont area!

A friend of mine told me that I have to give this place a chance as they have one of the biggest cinnamon buns she ever had. We gave it a try and I will add to her quote that not only the cinnamon bun was huge, it was divine. The turkey sandwich was beyond amazing. Fresh, delicious, crispy bread. The hot chocolate was so delicious too. And, can we have something cooler than sitting in the balcony of a cafe in the middle of a forest in a rainy day and enjoying your food? I don’t think so! And the staff we super friendly. The service was so fast that you get your food as soon as you find your seat. Loved it!

You can experience tranquility!I make a point to visit this café every year, and it never disappoints! Their cinnamon buns are absolutely delicious ,soft, perfectly spiced, and worth the trip on their own. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, with a cozy charm that makes you want to linger over coffee. It has truly become a yearly tradition for me, and I always look forward to returning for both the great food and the great vibe. Highly recommend!

Delicious latte and breakfast sandwich. Amazing atmosphere. I was solo and brought a good book, but ended up reading very little as I met other lovely people. This is a real gem in every way. We also got roasted turkey sandwiches to go and they were heavenly - that bread! Note that I was there on a Friday — Saturday the line up/wait looked pretty long.

I found this place because we needed breakfast and a packed lunch for an all-day boat tour with Sunshine Coast Tours in Egmont. I was prepared for an unhealthy breakfast of raspberry slice, but to my delight, they offer made-to-order breakfast sandwiches, and eggs on toast! We had a relaxed breakfast, eating outside in the tree house. The lady on duty pours excellent espresso shots. She also makes good microfoam with Pacific Foods Barista Oat Milk – but we found out one time while she was on break that not everyone there is skillful like her in making a good coffee drink. For the boat tour, we ordered a ham and a vegetable sandwich. I really enjoyed the ham sandwich, the ham was thickly sliced, tender and not very salty. The ham is locally roasted. We enjoyed the house made sour dough bread – it was quite substantial and makes very good toasts as well. The vegetable sandwich is not as good because the vegetables were cut too small and they keep falling off the sandwich. We came back two more times while hanging around Egmont. Their banana bread was very good. I meant to try a cinnamon bun, but because I'm trying to avoid sugar, and cinnamon is high in histamine, so, I never did get to taste it. This is a delightful little place, and it makes Egmont more exciting as a holiday spot.

Such a Beautiful place with such amazing kind hearted staff. Dog friendly! The food/drinks are AMAZING!!! and well priced! especially the Breakfast sandwich, me and my boyfriend make it an tradition now to get breakfast here every time we are up in egmont!! :)

An absolute sunshine coast favorite. Whether you are stopping before you head to the ferry or this is your pre or post Skookumchuk trail stop, the fresh baked goods and the little cafe in the woods is really second to none. I'd go as far as to say it's one of BC's best coffee spots for its vibe just tucked into the woods.

Very idyllic bakery and location. A beautiful wood cabin tucked in the woods, with deck space, a clearing with picnic tables, and benches for eating. My father in law who knows a lot about wood was admiring that the cabin is made of cedar, the highest quality wood, and it was unfinished, as it is the most naturally weatherproof wood (though not perfect). There's a stream below where kids can play. Great way to end our hike. * Veggie sandwich - 4.5 stars. Bread very fresh and spongy with a thick crust. Veggies were super fresh and the hummus was a nice touch. * Ham sandwich - 3 stars. Same great bread, very minimalist, thick pieces of ham and cheese. * Cinnamon Roll - 4 stars. Very soft and fresh. * Balsamic Peach Spritzer - 4 stars, at first I thought it was a little bland and just like soda water, but as I got near the bottom, it was more sweet. Make sure to mix it!

This place was God awful. It starts with a very picturesque walk down a beautiful green road for less than five minutes and you arrive at a beautiful cabin that is the cafe. There is seating all around the deck and then out back there are picnic tables and logs amongst the trails. And that's where the magic of it all stops. There are wasps everywhere. In the pastry cabinet, where people are sitting, dead in the windowsills, it's swarming with them and they are not deterred by a light swat away. They're as hungry as you are arriving. I got a golden latte and there was so much dry cinnamon or nutmeg on top my mouth dried out like the Saharan desert! It tasted awful but you know who loved it? The wasps. I ordered two of them with my wife adjacent to me and only one came out. So I kindly approached the staff about the missing beverage and they were forcefully adamant that I only ordered one. Why would I only order one beverage for two grown adults? How hard is it to say "oops we made a mistake/misunderstood?" So they made me go back to the register and pay for another drink which is just poor customer service and ultimately just a dumb decision when I didn't make the mistake in the first place. It's a self service place and I regret leaving a tip at all.

Great coffee and the raspberry slices are wonderful! Great place to stop after a hike!

Every restaurant and bakery, if they charge normal prices, should provide a toilet. I have nothing against porta-potties, but they should take responsibility for the porta-potty that they offered. It was full. There was no toilet paper and no hand sanitizer, it was disgusting. Anthony Bourdain judged every place he went to by the toilet, so this place was no good.

Nice spot in the forest with good coffee and great breakfast sandwich. We will eat here again.

A lovely little cafe hidden in Skookumchuck Parks. You can only walk up to the cafe as there is no car access. A nice little treat on the way back if you decide to walk the 45 minute trail to the narrows to see the tide change (be sure to check online when they are before you go). I love the quietness and quaintness of the cafe and would highly recommend when doing the trail!

This can be a difficult place to find. You can't drive to it...you must park on the public road and walk briefly through a lush privately owned rainforest to arrive. It's a lovely building, designed to blend into the environment. It's modern, warm and inviting and staffed by a couple of lovely ladies who provide good service with a broad smile. Most importantly, their coffee is sensational. I ordered a blueberry muffin. It was huge and very nice. My wife ordered seafood chowder. It was also delicious, but was more bouillabaisse than chowder in that it was a little thin. The bread they served was wonderful. There are tables inside, but we chose to sit on the balcony overlooking the brook and gardens. It was quite magical. If you get the chance pop in here...it's a rare find.

So cute and the best reward after hiking in to view the Skookumchuck Narrows! Make sure to check their hours before going, they were closed Mondays and Tuesdays when I went this summer.

Delicious cinnamon rolls! Sandwich was on fresh baked delicious sourdough with thick cut smoked ham. Good drinks and friendly staff.
