Our Visit

We recently stopped by Canela and indulged in some of their incredible offerings and let’s just say, they blew us away! We tried the almond croissant, Pain au Chocolat, raspberry poptart, and a savory Flavourtown pastry. Each item was phenomenal: the almond croissant was rich and nutty, the Pain au Chocolat had just the right amount of chocolatey goodness, the poptart was fruity and nostalgic, and the Flavourtown pastry was a bold, savory hit.

To sip alongside, we sampled three of their signature vegan drinks: the Ube Iced Lavender Chai, the Strawberry Matcha, and the Ube Horchata. Each one was beautifully balanced and refreshingly unique, especially the Ube Lavender Chai, which was smooth, floral, and full of comforting spice.

Nestled in the heart of historic Inglewood, Canela offers a warm and inviting atmosphere perfect for catching up with friends or enjoying a quiet moment with a cup of coffee.
