Terra Breads

in the farmers market on Granville. Good baguette to augment our other take away dinner items.

Love the bread, grabbed a stecca, blueberry brioche, truffle sea salt chocolate cookie, and a ginger cookie. If I had two stomachs I might of bought the rest of the stores stock out. Definitely making a point to revisit before I leave.

Things that I have tried and loved:
–croissants
–cupcakes (seriously the best bakery cupcakes, but they are seasonal)
–pizza (I’ve had them all and my favourite is the mushroom one)

A wonderfully flakey and soft and delicious croissant. The best I’ve had in a long long time. Cheese sticks were also delicious as they were a bit chewy and cheesy and crispy.

This place is a chain but i LOVED it! Much better than Panera bread in the states. You can tell their food is quality and I love the flavor combination. Their soup of the day tends to be on point and their pork panini special was to die for. Great mix of ingredients that blended perfectly together for a very complex taste. I will definitely return here when in need of some comfort food!
Not the greatest setup seating wise, kind of chaotic. Staff is very friendly and helpful.

Located in the public market. Fresh baked breads & breakfast pastries. Samples to try. The baguettes were great, as well as the flakey croissants. Was nice that they had small boxes to package your pastries for travel so it doesn’t get smashed.

Went with a friend to Terra Bread on my recent trip to Van City.
We travelled all the way to Granville Island for this infamous blueberry bread… and boy, was it worth it! It was sweet, but not overpowering. There was a great crunch to it with every bite. The blueberries were just the right amount and didn’t make the bread soggy… I could go on forever describing the thing but you really just have to go try it for yourself! The portion was large enough to share with my friend. We ate outside on the boardwalk with a great view of the water.
Too bad I can’t find you Terra Breads, I will be back sooner than you know it!!!

This place leaves me speechless. I got blueberry bread and my husband got a Belgian chocolate brownie. The brownie was pretty good but wow, the blueberry bread… AMAZING!
After finishing I went back and bought two more pieces as well as two pieces of grape bread. I think they lace their bread with some sort of addictive substance. Goodness…
Do not miss this place!

Smaller than their other locations. Customer service could’ve been better. Perhaps they were having a bad day. I come here to get some olive bread when I am on the way to seeing a friend as it goes well with anything. Sweet items are few and far between.

I missed the memo about the blueberry bread and got the chocolate croissant and the bf got a lemon ricotta muffin thing. The chocolate croissant was good but not as great as the ones from Paris Baguette. The sugar cookie was decorated as a mummy. Very cute.

Love, love, love the blueberry bread here. It’s dense, but not dead, if you catch my drift. The texture is chewy but not tough. Overall sweetness is just right.
Another bread worth getting is the green olive loaf. It’s crusty but the inside is pillowy soft and studded with juicy olives.
Prices are reasonable, you get what you pay for.

2^nd time back! Just get simple snacks. But OMGoodness! Their ginger cookies are SO delicious. The right amount of ginger! Love it. My son enjoyed their chocolate chip cookie. Bought a little more this time.
When I do come back to visit must make a stop here.

I can understand all the rave reviews about their blueberry bread! This place is located inside the Granville Public Market. All their breads are beautifully displayed behind the glass counter. We ordered the blueberry bread and a small piece of pizza.
Both were really really good. Though I was not in a mood to eat something sweet, I just loved the blueberry bread. It had the right amount of sweetness, without the overpowering sweetness to it. The bread was crunchy and soft at the same time. Love it! Highly recommend grabbing a bite when you are around in the Granville island.

Holy mother of all things imaginable… BLUEBERRY BREAD… drool.
The other stuff smelled and looked wonderful but I cannot stop thinking and dreaming about the blueberry bread. It was loaded with blueberries and sprinkled with powdered sugar. There are other ingredients but I have no clue as to what they are. It was not overly sweet, the bread had a crunchy-​like texture on the outside but soft and chewy on the inside. The blueberry flavor was prominent, the sugar and bread did not mask the blueberry flavor and scent at all. Oh my goodness so good.
I had this bread in January on a mini vacay in Canada with my husband and we are still talking about it.
Yes, I just wrote a review for one piece if bread. So, yes, it was that good.

There are a number of notable bakeries on Granville Island including Siegel’s Bagels and Lee’s Donuts. However when it comes to artisan bread, Terra Breads is the place to go.
Terra Breads is located inside Granville Island Public Market. It can be found on the food court side of the complex on the left. Terra is part of a chain, but this location doesn’t have a café. Just breads and pastries.
One of the reasons for visiting Granville Island on my trips to Vancouver is to pick up a slice of the excellent pâté at Oyama Sausage. Nothing goes better with pâté than bread, so I visited Terra in search of some.
They have many varieties to choose from. I decided to go with the standard demi-​baguette. The pastry selection here is also wonderful so I couldn’t resist getting one of the blueberry bread pastries.
What I noticed about the baguette is that the loaf keeps its softness well, unlike most baguettes that tend to get stale after a day or two. Even after three or four days, I was surprised by its longevity. The bread itself is quite tasty. I would recommend it if you are using it to make a sandwich or eating it with some charcuterie.
The blueberry bread was also a bit of a surprise. I wouldn’t characterize it as a complete pastry. It is more of a hybrid between bread and pastry. The chewiness reminds you of the bread, but the blueberry topping and sweet ingredients are of a pastry. If you are looking for an offering that is unique, the blueberry bread fits that bill.
When it comes to artisan bread on Granville Island, Terra Breads is the place to go bar none.

I love carbs so all you guys calm the F down!!! Our go to place for the pumpkin seed loaf and the pizza bianca for making your mini pizzas. The muffins are just awesome like the banana chocolate ones.
You obviously pay for the quality which I am in total favor for and make sure to pay in cash because it just makes things moves faster (they take credit and debit too) There’s always a line but it’s worth the wait.

OMG, makes me wish I lived in Vancouver, BC its that good! We had their butter croissants which was very buttery, flaky and perfectly baked, also got some Macaroons, which were almost as good as the ones my mother used to make!
Thirdly, we had their Cinnamon brioche buns, those were good, but would of prefered it with more cinnamon on it.
The Italian Cheese sticks were good choice as well, and were good to munch on while driving.
Lastly, we got some Multi grain Organic Bread, crunchy on the outside, and nice soft bread inside that was perfect!
The employees here were very helpful, and must say we will be back!

I heard Terra Breads are so good but never get a chance to try. We took our visitors to Granville Island for sight-​seeing and passed by Terra Breads. I had to stop and buy some breads… But, not want to spoil our appetite for dinner too much, we got Stecca which made with rosemary and olive oil, it had a very savoury taste. So good…
Definitely will come back and try others.

Still the best bread in the city. All of their breads have a delicious crunchy crust on the outside and are soft and pillowy on the inside thanks to the stone-​hearth oven they bake the breads in.
I always get the cheese bread. Can’t resist.
Great value for your money. 1 loaf of cheese bread, 2 mini focaccias (try the potato & dill!), a caramel pecan cinnamon bun and an oatmeal raisin cookie came to about $ 17.

One item, Blueberry Bread.
Blueberry Bread is probably the most delicious pastry I have ever had in my life! I don’t live in Vancouver anymore, as I’m currently in New Orleans, and I have searched and searched and searched for something similar. No luck… Sometimes, La Boulangerie has a blueberry danish which is very tasty as well, but it’s not the same, and they only make it at random times.
I dream about you Blueberry Bread, I think about you every day, and I think about how delicious and fantastic you are as I bite into you.
I try to come here every time I’m back home in Vancouver. Other than their Blueberry Bread, you must try all their other wares, as they are also top knotch!
Did I mention that they also have fantastic friendly upbeat service? They’re also moving their butts as fast as they can as you can always expect a line up here!
