Ella's Heaven Cafe & Bakery

You'll find yourself on Talbot Street in the North City, and Ella's Heaven immediately feels different—the kind of spot where the smell of fresh bread actually stops you in your tracks. The pastries here aren't an afterthought; they're the whole reason locals queue up, especially early on weekends. Order a coffee and whatever's just come out of the oven, grab a table if you can, and watch the neighbourhood drift by. It's unpretentious but clearly run by people who actually care about what they're making.
