COBS Bread on Hastings Street in Burnaby is a bakery that fits neatly into the rhythms of daily life for locals who appreciate freshly baked goods without fuss. This spot draws people looking for straightforward, quality bread and pastries baked on-site every morning. The unmistakable scent of bread baking hits you as soon as you walk in, especially if you come early—perfect timing for grabbing a warm loaf that’s still soft inside with that inviting golden crust.

The atmosphere is welcoming without pretense. Staff are consistently friendly and professional, creating a steady flow of regulars who appreciate the dependable freshness here. It’s the kind of place where you might pop in for a quick loaf to take home for breakfast, or pick up a handful of buns and rolls for an easy weeknight meal. The bakery’s focus is clearly on the basics done well—like their plain and sesame bagels which are hand-stretched and baked fresh daily, offering a familiar but satisfying texture and taste.

Community-minded too: leftover bread often doesn’t go to waste but is instead donated, which resonates with customers who value local businesses that give back. Prices are reasonable, making it a practical stop for students, families, or anyone looking for a modest treat without feeling like they need to splurge.

Best times to visit are early mornings when the bakery is freshly stocked and the smell is most potent. Whether you’re in for a quick grab-and-go or browsing for something new—like a seasonal pastry—there’s a quiet, unhurried pace that suits everyday routines rather than leisurely lingering.

Overall, COBS Bread at this location offers a consistent, no-nonsense bakery experience that fits well into Burnaby’s diverse neighborhood vibe, appealing most to those who appreciate freshness, community focus, and familiar baked goods that support their day-to-day needs.

I love this place. Not only do they make great bread. They give back to the community with all that isn't sold to the hungry. That's my kind of shop.

The staff have always been pleasant or at least professional. The products are always fresh. I tried the chocolate peppermint cruffin today; it was enjoyable except about half of the peppermint pieces fell off at the first bite. I suggest pressing them into the chocolate to avoid loosing them.

A first time Cobs virgin, I am so stoked I decided to visit this morning and now love this joint! First of all... the heavenly smell when you walk in, especially since I made an early morning stop (which their opening times are awesome to grab a fresh Loaf for a wholesome breakfast) is literally incredible. Your wowed at the almost blinding golden crust everywhere whilst drooling like a dog. Their selection is great! All products made fresh with minimal and wholesome ingredients for a super yummy and fantastic grade product. The lady here literally made my day, super kind, approachable and upbeat. She offered to cut my Loaf for me and sliced regulard or thick. It was an absolute delight visiting this bakery this morning to he honest. I also love how Cobs gives back to the community through profits and their own initiatives, a great company is one that supports and allows other local businesses to leverage and thrive with them. Don't forget to donate to our local Burnaby halfway house for only a buck! Every cent counts. You can so redeem Cobbs rewards with your associated cell phone number, making earning free dough (Pun intended) a sure breeze. Cobs Bread is a big chain, but support local businesses and charities just like this fantastic business do!

One of the more consistent Cobs locations we’ve visited. Love their cheese pull apart, high fibre, country grain, baps, and buns.
