The coffee here is terrible. It tasted very watered down and pretty pricey for what it was. No thank you. I didn’t try their baked goods so my rating is solely based on their coffee quality.

I want to support this neighbourhood bakery, but I have never been able to get service here. I am willing to try ordering in Portuguese, but I guess I don’t look the part, so I can’t get anyone’s attention. After three separate tries, I gave up.

The custard tarts are great at Jack’s. I found the coffee very watery and bitter. Customer service is good.

Dont really like this pastery. The way they have the table looks to cluster. Everytime I go if you dont speak Portuguese you get looked over or they dont understand what you want. The bread isnt the greatest and the pastery isnt either its small and doesnt taste great thats why I make myself to Doce Mihno

Went here for breakfast with some family. The options were pretty slim, but that’s fine if you’re just looking for something simple (bacon and eggs). The price, however, was a bit much for what you got. Also, no jam for the toast — what’s up with that? Service was a little slow as well.
We didn’t try the pastries, but they looked good. especially the portuguese tarts (but it’s hard to make a bad tart). Maybe this place is better as a bakery/​coffee shop, but certainly not as a breakfast place.

They have cheaper bottled beverages than most places (sadly, I’m talking juice and not alcohol), their display is really pretty, and their selection is vast. They’re open 24 hours, so they’ll be around if you ever want something sweet in the wee hours.
Unfortunately, I had The Saddest tiramisu I’ve ever had the displeasure of consuming in my entire life here. Four whole dollars worth of stale ladyfingers with a dash of cocoa and a side of hardened artificial whipped topping. The pastry my girlfriend bought I also had the misfortune of trying and was greeted with the same unabashed staleness. At least they’re consistent.

If I could give this place zero stars, I would. My boyfriend and I were the only people at this place for breakfast. Our waiter was rude and did not make us feel welcome. The eggs were okay, but my bacon was absolutely disgusting — it was basically two pieces of greasy lard. Coffee was also terrible. Avoid this place.

For a bakery they have a lot to learn about making pastries. Most pastries are dried out and rubbery, made with artificial fillers and artificial whipped cream. Gross. I don’t know who is eating their custard tarts, but if you want a good one you need to get them on the day they bake them cause they only bake them once a week. every other day you get them heated up from frozen, and you can tell. All their bread is the same whether its «Italian» «Portuguese» «rye» doesn’t matter. Definitely one of the nicer places on the street by the look of it, and it’s convenient when I run out of cream or milk for my coffee I can go in there at 6 a.m. and pick up a carton (for a small fortune) but if you like Portuguese/​Brazilian baked goods and food you need to try Brazil Bakery and Pastry on Dundas.

We were there yesterday for the Portugal Day pig roast and sardine grill. The food was great and the custard tarts really are amazing. For Portugal Day we were able to wash this down with a $ 15 bottle of surprisingly good wine and to watch the Portuguese folk dancing.

Jack’s is a Portuguese 24 hour bakery.
The pastries are above average with the custard tarts being a highlight.
I would definitely AVOID the «chocolate» croissants. They fill them with a kind of chocolate pudding (instead of actual chocolate) and I find the consistency and flavour just gross, it’s like filling a croissant with jello-​o pudding.
Aside from that thought I’d say it has some of the best pastries in the area. The cheesecake is very good and they have huge selection.
As the place is very Portugesey some of the staff don’t speak much English and may not be able to explain what something is very well if you ask them any kind of complicated question. There are often lots of Portuguese locals inside watching soccer or reading the paper etc.

I didn’t like this place for a minute but it’s grown on me. I went on the first date with my man here and they charged us $ 5 for a «smoothie» which was just crushed ice and flavored syrup. That’s a snow cone where I come from. Anyway, I’ve been in for a cappuccino and dessert a couple times now. Large selection of sweet temptations. I don’t mind the prices. 3 — 5 dollars for most things. The tiramisu is good. I had that tonight with cappuccino and it set me back less than $ 7. I like the bright colors and the community hang out vibe. Also doesn’t hurt that it is open 24 hours. I’ll go back for sure.

Best custard tarts ever. Even better when they are fresh at 9am.

Gotta say, it’s decent but I think the prices are a little over the top. It’s okay, but for the money I’ve had much better baked goods. In the area though one of the more inviting joints.

Off the beaten path is Jack’s, in the Oakwood & Rogers Rd. area. It’s hard to miss. It’s the only brightly lit and well signed business in the area at 9pm.
The lighting is important because Jack’s serves up a feast for the eyes of Portuguese baked treats. They have a huge selection of pastries and baked goods from mini-​cheese cakes to traditional Portuguese custard tarts. They do custom cakes too.
I walked out of there with a massive rum ball covered with pastel bunny sprinkles, some tarts and a small loaf of Portuguese corn bread for less than $ 10.
The service was friendly and helpful, despite the language barrier, which only made me resent the awfulness of my local Nova Era even more.
