### [Is the bread and sourdough at Yum Bakery consistently good?](https://shonoai.com/hub/yum-bakery#is-the-bread-and-sourdough-consistently-good)

21 reviews, 2018-05 to 2026-03: 17 say yes · 4 say no.

As of 19 Oct 2026, 21 written Google reviews of Yum Bakery in Calgary speak to bread and sourdough quality: 17 say yes, 4 say no.

Many customers praise it strongly, saying it is "the best sourdough bread in Calgary"[1] and that "the sourdough bread is to die for"[2]. Others specifically call out the "olive sour dough bread"[3] and say "fabulous sourdough bread"[4] stands out among other treats.

**Quality complaints.** One reviewer found the bread "tasted flat and hard and was not at all what I expected"[5], while another described a loaf that "tasted dry and looked like it was frozen not fresh"[6]. A different customer noted that the Country breads were "almost always burnt a bit"[7], and someone else felt that a specific item "it's not "real" Challah" despite the high price[8].
