Bon-Appetit Bakery in Osdorp-Oost

I saw your delivery driver smoking inside the van and throw the cigarette out from the window when done. This is unhygienic for your deliveries and very disrespectful of the neighborhoods you deliver to.

I was here last Saturday at 3:00pm and since the staff was busy doing other things and there was not much pastry left. So, i asked the guy "are you guys still open?" And he replied with "unfortunately yes.", which i found to be kind of unwelcoming and strange. Since i do not speak dutch, i asked him what kind of cakes these were. Then he said "well, it is cake. It is written there, right?" I found this quiet unfriendly. Then i asked him, what they they would open tomorrow (Sunday) and Monday, since i was planning to maybe take something on my departure day, so i could eat it on the train. He told me the hours. After having a bit of a look for a few minutes, i told him "well, i will come back then on Monday. You said you open at Xam, right?" He said "yeah well, that's what i just told you." I don't get why someone would have to be so unfriendly. I honestly seriously was planning to come back to buy something. But why would you have to be so unfriendly, just because you wanna close, even though there is a full hour left until closing timw. Or because someone does not buy something right away? The pastry looked great though. Schade !!

We order our cakes from Kaandorp Bakery. And year after year, they turn the cake into beautiful works of art. Anything is possible; they think along with you to find solutions—what sweethearts. Our compliments to Marcel and Anja; what fantastic pastry chefs.

It's a shame this bakery went bankrupt because it was the best. "Bread factory" was a forbidden word there, but in reality, it was. I was fortunate enough to work there for 10 years as a weekend driver and substitute driver, much to their and my satisfaction. It also helped me build my nest egg for 10 years, which came in very handy a few years later when the banking crisis hit in 2008 and my business practically ground to a halt. The bankruptcy of Bartels Bakery is deeply saddening to me.

We are very happy with the sandwiches from this place!
