Absolutely loved the cake we ordered! We asked for a dark chocolate super moist cake, and that’s exactly what we got—intense, decadent, and not overly sweet. The texture was moist and smooth. Also, the lovely lady taking the order was very attentive and precise. Highly recommend this bakery if you’re after something indulgent!

An absolute unit of a chicken, walnut chicken and rocket sandwich. This particular one was one of their pre-made sandwiches, but they also hand a sandwich bar that closes at 1:30pm. Their fourth generation owners are continuing a legacy of award-winning bread and signature sourdough that began all the way back in 1887!! The photo is half of the sandwich, if it can even be called that. The bread roll had a diameter of almost 20 cm and akin to a pie. It was generously stuffed with fillings, including a generous lathering of creamy butter that enhanced the sweet fluffy bread as well as walnuts that added a pleasant textural and flavour contrast. It managed to fill 2 people!! At just $11, it offers exceptional value and it was clear from the constant stream of customers that the bakery is a hit with the locals too.

Another Google find, wanted to buy some bread and decided on this bakery. We bought some light scrumptious poppyseed pumpkin bread and some mixed grain sourdough. Both were delicious! Staff were lovely and friendly. Recommend to check it out if you are in the area.
