I cannot recommend this place enough, the baked goods transported me right to the best bakeries in Italy, paired with an iced coffee, the perfect treat, the pizza, even the day old $2 slices are so good, the limade FORGET ABOUT IT. I've been in Hamilton 5 years now and I'm kicking myself for not finding this place sooner.

  • Maddy

Had a lovely time at SIB yesterday afternoon. Staff was extremely friendly and food was quiet good, dessert especially! The bathrooms were clean! Interior of the place was homey but pretty minimalistic. SIB provides a wide array of items such as: Pizza, Bread, Cakes, Cookies, Coffee (Iced and Hot) and even Gelato!

  • Kim McCaig

When we walked in we were greeted by a lovely person who gave us the run down of the establishment. We made our way to the pastry section and the person working there was so rude. I believe she actually scoffed at me when I asked her how her day was going. Tiramisu was awesome! Her attitude was not. More

  • Nicki Manley

Super clean & organized with menus displayed, great customer service - friendly, happy, early explained the process to this first timer here....and bonus... this mushroom pizza might be the best pizza I've ever had even when comparing to countries where pizza is sacred. Will definitely return!!!

  • Jhing Rem

Clean store/restaurant. Enjoyed the pastries and latte. The cheesecake was delish. The dinner rolls are perfect to accompany any meal. The loaf cake was so moist and buttery. Courteous, helpful staff. Great place to get together with company. This is one of my favorite bakery places now!

  • Kayla Suriani

I absolutely love it here. The fresh bread and olive focaccia is to die for. I come almost on a weekly basis for a fresh prosciutto and arugula sandwich. All the workers are always very pleasant and keep the place looking beautiful (and clean) every time!

  • za

Ample space, bright, and friendly. As you enter, on the left side they have one type of menu, and on the right side they have the bakery/pastry section. Many healthy choices. I ordered a salad and a latte. I would like to return. The images tell more...

Simply Italian Bakery is a great place to sit and enjoy a specialty coffee or indulge in delicious pizza & desserts offered. The staff is friendly and welcoming. Definitely recommend trying a peppermint mocha and purchasing some baked goods to go. More

Absolutely beautiful little cakes, shared with the whole family. The staff were very polite, and greeted my husband warmly when he came in. The cherry Cheesecake was a family favorite for sure. Loved having these cakes for my 30th birthday celebration!

Stopped in for something sweet after some burgers. What a cute little bakery! The breads on the shelves looked so fresh. All the treats are as aesthetic as they are tasty. There's a sitting area if you decide to have your meal here. I only

Found this hidden gem on Ottawa St as we opened our studio around the corner. I must say, since visiting, we haven't order coffee or other hot beverages anywhere else! Sam and all of the crew offer amazing service daily. The baked goods

  • Akanksha Babbar

Terrible staff. Walked in at 5:50 (store shuts at 6) and specifically checked if they’re okay to make a quick take out coffee before we placed the order. They say yes and then behave so impatiently like they can’t wait to get rid of us.

  • Kesha Patel

I ordered a tiramisu cake from SIB and it came out to be very delicious. The price was reasonable and the service was very good. I am very happy as they fulfilled my requirements very well. They make the best Tiramisu cake. More

  • Keith Sarty

Honestly, this might be the best sourdough I've ever eaten in my life. The outer crunch, the softness in the middle, and the flavor is second to none! You've got a new solid customer! Keep up the amazing work! Thank you. …

Just found this place today. Got a nice fresh loaf of sourdough bread. My Wife and I enjoyed it at dinner time. What a great tasting bread. This is a nice shop and it is very clean and well setup with tables to have your

  • Trish Sullivan

Stopped in by chance. Very nicely done inside and the pizza did not disappoint. Delicious! The sandwiches, and baked goods all looked good and the panzerotti delivered to another table was huge. Def trying that next time!

Great place for Italian food and desserts/coffee! Seating both inside or outside of business make it an ideal place to relax and eat! Friendly and courteous staff make this place a no brainer! I highly recommend it!

  • Adam Harwood

We just happened to walk by and decided to see what they had and what a great choice! We had a Mortadella sandwich and pepperoni pizza and both were amazing. Coffee was also fantastic. We will definitely be back.

  • warda Rimmal

Stopped here for a quick break, ended up having their pizza. The food was amazing. Owner and staff were really nice. No doubt an authentic Italian restaurant in town!

  • colin chisholm

Food is overpriced and the staff is rude. The deserts are stale. The pizza has very little cheese on top and the sauce is tasteless. Would not recommend. More

  • Donato Dinapoli

Nice staff and good looking place! But the deserts are dry and I was given incorrect items at the bakery counter. I should have double checked before I left.

  • Mara Bevan

We stopped in yesterday for a bite to eat: this place looked clean and inviting. We decided to try the pizza and it was truly delicious, perfect crust and

  • noh name

Easily the worst lobster tool I’ve ever had… how many days old was it? Just garbage, and from an Italian bakery? Good gelato/ice cream though.

  • Katarina Rajic

Popped in on Christmas Eve about 30 mins before closing. Staff could not have been kinder or more welcoming, even despite the timing.

  • Steveo A

To be honest we have tried this place a few times now and the first time everything was awesome but subsequently, it's hit and miss.

  • Matthew M

The buns and bread are good. $7 for a loaf is a little steep but it seems to be the going rate now for fresh bread. More

  • Clara Urech

Love this place! Their pizza is some of the best in Hamilton, and so are their croissants!

  • Danielle Ireson

Simply Italian Bakery has become my favourite local place after relocating for work.
