I tried a pumpkin tart. It wasn’t as fresh as expected, but the service was great. It’s a local café, and the staff were friendly.

I’m so happy that I’ve found a place that’s close to me that all the food is made gluten free. I have had celiac disease for a long time now and I could never found a spot. I’ll definitely be going back here for there cheese cake tarts and butter chicken pie.

Tartistry is an absolute gem! Their butter tarts are hands down some of the best I’ve ever had — perfectly buttery, rich, and full of flavor. I love that they also have gluten-free, vegan, and zero-sugar options, so there’s truly something for everyone. The coffee and tea pair so well with the desserts, and the cozy atmosphere makes it the perfect spot to relax or catch up with friends. Friendly staff, amazing treats, and such a welcoming vibe — highly recommend!

Tartistry has the absolute BEST butter tarts I’ve ever had!!! Every single flavour is a home run, but my favourite is the toasted coconut! The crusts are buttery and flakey, and the fillings are full and delicious!! They can accommodate almost every food allergy and my family members who have a variety of allergies, all can eat these and absolutely adore them! Cute little shop too with lovely servers! I also bought their tart shells and made my own filling from berries in my yard and they turned out incredible! Note: the photo only shows two tarts because we inhaled the others too quickly before snapping a pic lol

Terrific tasty tarts! . They are gluten free and have vegan options. They also have cookies and soup. I didn't enjoy the cafe mocha. The staff were friendly. There is a cozy antique vibe inside with some seating. Definitely recommend the tarts .

Cute little tart shop along the Queensway that serves coffee and better tarts. Enjoyed a soup and corn bread with my oat latte. Live music entertains you while you eat. They have a loyalty card if you buy 6 boxes of half a dozen tarts you get the 7th box free.
