Emilee's Sweet House is a Turkish bakery and café on East Hastings, two doors down from Meet and Eat restaurant. The menu focuses on Gaziantep-style pastries: pistachio baklava, pistachio rolls, şöbiyet with a cream filling, and künefe with shredded pastry and melted cheese.

The shop also lists börek, simit sandwiches, Turkish tea, Turkish coffee and lokum. That range makes the profile useful for both a quick dessert stop and visitors comparing Turkish bakery specialties before ordering.

The published hours in this profile are 10 am to 11 pm daily. Hours, prices and menu availability can change, so confirm them through the restaurant's linked Instagram profile before making a special trip. The room is small and suited to a casual dessert-and-tea visit; takeout and delivery are listed as available.
