Community Highlights: Lakeside Bakery Deli Cafe

For 25 years, Lakeside Bakery Deli Cafe has been a cherished part of Leamington, offering fresh, European-inspired breads, cakes, and pastries made with love and tradition. To mark this milestone, the bakery has undergone exciting renovations and a modern rebrand, blending their rich legacy with a fresh, updated look that welcomes a new generation of customers while staying true to the quality that’s made them a local favourite.


The secret to their success lies in a commitment to freshness and consistency. "We bake fresh every night, and every loaf of bread is made that morning," says the owner. "You can’t beat that!" Despite the bakery’s growth and changes over the years, they’ve always stayed true to the same European recipes passed down through generations, ensuring the same high standards of taste and quality customers have come to expect.


Lakeside Bakery’s success is also rooted in the support of the Leamington community, which has always appreciated the high-quality, European-style food the bakery offers. "People here really value good food, and we’ve been so lucky to be a part of that for 25 years," the owner shares. This sense of community is something the bakery holds close, and it’s been a driving force behind their longevity.


Guided by a piece of advice from local entrepreneur Joe Colasanti, the owner reflects, “Joe told me, 'As long as you offer Quality, Service, and Value, your success will be never-ending.'” It’s this philosophy that has shaped the bakery’s approach to everything—from the ingredients used to the way customers are treated. Another valuable lesson came from the owner’s father: “If you support your community, your community will support you.” These principles remain at the core of Lakeside Bakery’s business today.


After a busy day of baking, the owner looks forward to returning home to her family—husband Ezio and daughters Olivia and Vienna. "They are my world," she says. "They remind me of what truly matters." The satisfaction of seeing customers happy also drives the team at Lakeside Bakery. “When people appreciate the hard work we put in every day, it makes it all worthwhile.”


In addition to their famous baked goods, Lakeside Bakery offers a welcoming space to enjoy breakfast or lunch, along with a selection of unique gifts from around the world. The recent renovations have given the café a fresh, modern feel, making it the perfect spot to relax with a coffee or enjoy a meal with friends.

Looking ahead, Lakeside Bakery is focused on continuing to provide the high-quality goods and services that the community loves, now and for generations to come. "Our commitment to quality and service will never change," the owner says.

 For a taste of tradition in a fresh new space, and a slice of community, there’s no better place than Lakeside Bakery Deli Cafe.
