In 1908 John Tait opened a Bakeshop in Brockville, Ontario and purchased a building in the present location. Here, he started a Bakeshop specializing in pastries and breads that he had learned to make when he was working in Buckingham Palace. The business grew and prospered and was soon very well known in Brockvlille and the surrounding area.
In 1957 Bruce Mazurek purchased the business, and using some of the original recipes from Mr. Tait's time expanded and had the business grow to a wholesale-retail bakery. Now, they were not only supplying the retail sector with their quality baked goods. But they were also supplying the surrounding area with bread and pastry in the large supermarkets and restaurants. Steinbergs, Woolco, Dominion, Brockville Collegiate, St Vincent De Paul Hospital were just some of the customers they've served.
In 1979 John and Stephen Mazurek purchased the Bakery from their father, and continued to expand and grow the business. In 1983, they added a deli & catering division in their location which offered customers an unique opportunity to add their favorite fillings and toppings to Tait's popular bread. The Deli soon became a smashing success and was now a key component in their overall operation.
In the year 2000, Tait's extensively renovated and restored their King St. Location and now offer a larger and expanded Deli operation. By its huge success, the renovations have proved that a small Family owned business can succeed in the Downtown core and can provide the highest possible quality product at a reasonable cost.
In 2006, Tait's expanded with a second location on Parkdale Avenue in Brockville. Tait's Uptown will carry all the products that are available at our downtown location as well as an expanded Deli.
I personally love the Tait's Special submarine sandwich, if you get a whole one, be prepared to be full for a long time. They also make an unreal cherry cheesecake.
