The Central Blues are proud to welcome Nadège Pâtisserie as a Silver Partner for the 2026 season. Founded by fourth-generation French pastry chef Nadège Nourian, the Toronto institution first opened its doors in Trinity Bellwoods in 2009 and has since grown to several locations across the city. 

This February, Nadège expanded once again with the opening of Chez Nad, a French bistro and cocktail bar tucked inside the original Queen West bakery, where the Blues wrapped up our preseason with brunch this April. The bistro is also serving elevated French meals for dinner from Wednesday to Satrurday. New this summer, Nadège is introducing a French picnic experience from its Trinity Bellwoods location, making it the perfect way to enjoy an afternoon in the park.

Throughout the 2026 season, players who best represent the Central Blues brand through their effort, selflessness, and team-first spirit will be rewarded with a Nadège gift. The Bloor-Annex café is just a short walk from our training ground, making it an easy stop for a pre-training sandwich, coffee, or sweet treat. Many of our players also recognize Nadège's Oxford Kitchen on the drive to and from our home field, making the brand a familiar part of the Blues journey throughout the season.

Like the Central Blues, Nadège is built on people and relationships. Nourian credits her grandmother with inspiring her passion for pastry and instilling the craftsmanship, care, and love of sharing food that continue to define the business today. Those same values of community, tradition, and bringing people together make Nadège a natural fit with the Blues, and we're grateful to the entire Nadège team for helping us celebrate the people who make our club special each week.

Whether you're grabbing a Canadiano cafe before training,  picking up pastries to share after a match, enjoying dinner at Chez Nad, be sure to stop by Nadège and thank them for supporting the Central Blues.
