Tartine Breads and Pies - Vancouver

I have never been able to understand why people buy a thriving business and then change everything. I have been here a number of times in the past 15 years when it was under the original owner and subsequent ownership. I have not been here for slightly under a year but today I discovered that there was no longer a choice of bread for sandwiches as I was told We only have multigrain. In other words, we will not slice any of the other loaves we have on our shelf? In any regard, the bread is now sliced much thinner than previously, the turkey in the sandwich was sliced thin like turkey loaf instead of being more like turkey breast. The chili was a distant cousin to what it used to be: there was about 6 kidney beans in the whole bowl; there was WAY too much chili powder used in the making of this batch (I will NOT try the next batch to find out if this was a mistake) and it was WAY too salty! Does the cook not taste his product? Why on earth did you change what was being done so well for so many years? I can only guess that you do not want me back as a customer: wish granted!

I actually had to have them repeat the price of a frozen dessert pie because I assumed I had misheard: $30 Morbidly curious about this luxury pie, I bought a $7.00 slice of sour cherry to go (no fork or napkin offered with the smashed piece I was given) The filling is what you would expect from a can, and the crust tasted, and smelled, like a savoury pie; I don't know if it's because they're stored together, or if they don't clean their surfaces properly, but it was incredibly pronounced. It was as if someone had made a beef pot pie, scooped out it's innards, and poured cherry filling inside. Do yourself a favour, hop over to Granville Island, and get a much better pie for a third the price.

Local cozy place with a good variety menu from coffees, tarts, pastries, soups ?and of course its pies. As I consider this place as a local business, I expected more welcoming and maybe a bit well priced but except that I give 4 starts. $7.5 for medium size oat milk cappuccino small tart)

Oh, how I love this place! I used to go to the Davie St. location before it closed and then learned of this one. I have loved every single thing I have tried bread, sandwiches, soups, pies, brownies, cookies etc. You honestly cannot go wrong. And the staff are super nice too.

Small and quiet place, with great atmosphere and service. The cakes looks good, we didn't try this time.
