Went there for breakfast this morning! What a lovely way to start the day! Even though it was very very busy we were served in record time and food was exceptional! Not to mention the service a special thank you to Anthony for going above and beyond for us! Also bought their delicious bread as well best bread I've ever tasted!! Would highly recommend to all my family and friends ������.
Have just had my opinion of the wonderful Brasserie Bread confirmed with their two fabulous wins for their bread. It is always such a joy to go to Banksmeadow to their cafe for the scrumptious breakfasts, brunch and lunches. So with they were nearer to where I live. However, the bonus is that their bread can be bought locally and it is head and shoulders above any other bread I've tasted. I love their white sourdough, their baguettes, the fruit bread, in fact to be honest, I like all of their breads. My hips also like the bread, spread with lots of butter and vegemite, my daily breakfast, though sometimes I have peanut butter or avocado (not smashed), or left over bolognaise - the bread soaks in the juices from the bol. - what an absolutely delicious comfort meal. Do think of opening another cafe on the north shore side of Sydney, as those of us who live here would just so love that. Thank you for all the effort which has gone into creating this bread heaven.
Great coffee, great food. Friendly staff, cute little bakery shop
Thank you Boris for a fantastic lesson in the art of making Sourdough bread. Also for your tricks of the trade and your enthusiasm! Thanks to Brasserie Bread for their generosity in giving us all tonnes of fabulous fresh bread to take home. I highly recommend this course.
My mum and I went to the home baker class and it was absolutely fantastic !! I would rate it higher stars if I could. It wouldn't have been such a great experience if it wasn't for the master baker, Boris. He has a wealth of knowledge, patience and love for what he does. Thanks Boris!!
I have been into Brasserie Bread at Botany twice and on both occasions I can't fault the food or the customer service. Brasserie Bread has a relaxing, friendly, happy atmosphere and the cafe staff are exceptional at being very responsive, attending and helpful when asking about menu items. I will definitely return!!
Had a lovely breakfast there with my husband and 2 young boys.. The service was so friendly and the food was yummy.. We will definitely be back for those pancakes again!! And the bacon and egg panini! The coffee was delicious too! Smooth, perfect temperature and great flavour!
This is just the best sourdough. Harvest Grain is my favourite. I wish we didn't have to drive from campbelltown to botany to get our supplies, and we are grateful for the Brasserie bread guy at Bulli Markets.
Awesome awesome service, coffee and food. My regular stop when I'm in the area.
Delish bread and pastries, and I was really impressed with the customer service. There was a mixup with my first order and the staff went above and beyond to make it up to me the next time.
Really nice coffee and breakfast. Delicious. Highly recommend this place.
Definitely my favorite place for brunch in autumn.
The location, ambience and interiors are all great. The food, is absolutely lovely.
The coffee and croissant (favourite combination ever!) were the highlight of my meal. The sourdough pancakes were soft and filling; balanced with a sweet-and-sour berry compote and an extremely light and delicate honeycomb cream. The raspberry tart was cakey and yum. No complaints, really.
Can't wait to try more baked treats from here.
If you want some delicious bread and pastries this is the place to go. You can also dine in for brunch their normal breakfast menu is alright however, it’s really the bakery goods that are best. They also make really good coffee!
A very nice cafe that is truly worth the visit. Prompt friendly service and good food at a very reasonable price. We will be going there again. We did go again and the food was good and very reasonably priced. Good service.
Lovely unassuming cafe. Food was nice and good proportions - I had the Croque Monsieur, which although presentation was nothing spectacular, was quite nice. Hubby had panini which was decent. Coffee was outstanding, best we’d had in a while.
Although the lovely staff missed my toasted bread and I was late for my class. She gave me unpaid bread in return. It’s really a great experience and foodies.
Love this place! Decent coffee and amazing bread.
Comfortable clean interior, order at the counter, be tempted by all the pastries and breads, decent coffee, free sampling of sourdough while you wait.
Have had a few dishes off their food menu.
Ham and cheese croissant beautifully toasted remaining hot but flakey (and thankfully not flat like most places). Avocado on toast refreshing and yummy. selection of gourmet sandwiches.
One of the down sides would be parking, there is roadside parking but it can be difficult if it’s full and with all the heavy trucks going through!
Definitely a local favourite.
Bianca: We have vast interests and hobbies here at FFS. Ness and I particularly love cooking and baking and while that has taken the back seat of late due to a little bubbalah and work and social commitments. We always look forward to getting into the kitchen and tackling something new or something tried and tested.
Brasserie bread is a favorite of mine I love the bread.. on the weekend the place gets super busy. Staff are very friendly & I love the coffee used..
It was terribly busy at this artisan bakery, super popular on a Saturday for breakfast. I managed to get a table quickly and scoffed down the Breakfast Plate (soft boiled egg, tomato, avocado, sliced tilsit cheese and toast) before my next appointment. They serve the toast with Pepesaya butter (yum!) and Coffee is by Allpress. Will like to go back again when I'm in a less rush.
Comfortable place with lots of pastries. I've tried their tart, croissant and danish. But, their almond croissant is my favourite. Tried several times to get their kouigh aman but, not ready yet.
Joanne and I had breakfast at this bakery on a Sunday morning when the cafe was still relatively quiet. The cafe has a counter service, so you'll have to go the till when you're ready to order. We tried the ham and cheese croissant, and the smoked trout with feta and poached eggs on sourdough. Both dishes were really tasty and we were satisfied. The counter at the front displayed a variety of pastries and baked goods which looks so enticing. We end up getting the olive and rosemary loaf to takeaway; the olive and rosemary flavours compliments so well together.
😍🍞 I'll be sure to pop by again to try the pastries and the different breads when I visit Sydney again.
Their new fit out looks great and like how they moved the ordering counter from the back of the cafe to the front. Coffee and food seem to have also improved after the renovations.
Delicious bread, nice looking premises and friendly staff... but a bit overrated. This is simple food done up to a decent standard. My sandwich was good but the highlight was the bread. It was actual bread! (as stupid as it sounds). Had a flourless orange cake and it was ok but nothing impressive... upside is they did not overload me with sugar. If you are in the area I would recommend this place for breakfast.
Had the sourdough pancakes with berries. Crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. Very delicious! Also the chocolate milkshake was so good! The internal fitout of the shop is very modern and clean cut, which makes you feel comfortable eating there. I would return again!
A Bakery production site and cafe in Botany Bay that has a large space to eat in, bread you can buy to go or watch it the bakers in action. Coffee was campos and they sell beans too. The menu has lots of meals
for breakfast, brunch or lunch and offer lots of bread choices; white, wholemeal, rye, multigrain etc.. you can get sandwiches, pancakes, salads and more. I got a European breakfast (or so I called it). A warm soft boiled egg, tomato, cheese and toast. It comes with Pepe La Saya Butter too. Nice. Prices there are reasonable. I got an espresso and a macchiato which were fine. Service was good.
Ordered - Cheese & Tomato Cross, Cappuccino, Hot Chocolate.
Great place, awesome music, wonderful service. Loved the bread. They taste even better than others.
And yes.. great wifi speed.
Popped into Brasserie Bread for Sunday breakfast. Service was friendly and efficient. It was interesting seeing the bread being made on site - nice little touch. The food was delicious... Special shout out for the sides that we ordered... They were very generous. The lemon, lime bitters was especially delicious... It was a special, but is deserving of a place on the main menu.
Beautiful place for that area, and super friendly staff. I have tried the Lamb shoulder hash and also the special of the day burger in 2 different occasions last week. food is great and they use fresh ingredients. Lamb shoulder hash was a bit too oily but apart from that you couldn't fault it.
Having a nice lunch with friend. Always a very busy bakery. Simple ingredients but teaste fantastic. Regreted not having the day special drink lemonade. Recommended.
As soon you walk in it has the best aroma of fresh bread! They mostly do poached eggs which is my favourite way of eating eggs. I had the baked eggs in florentine, this was delicious and eggs cooked to perfection!!
With a rating like this, you can't help but have high expectations. I had to give the sourdough pancakes a go despite not having much of a sweet tooth especially for breakfast. They were very good indeed, worth all the praise and positive reviews. But the true star of the meal for me had to be the lamb shoulder hash!! Soo amazing, so delicious, and definitely the dish that will have me back again. Honestly with the pancakes alone I wouldn't have rated so highly, but the lamb - my goodness this alone is a 4.5.
It is a bit in the middle of nowhere so the trek had to be made purely for the meal, but after my first visit I can conclude that it was all worth it indeed!
Located on a lonely road, the outside didn't seem like much but the interior was quite nicely decorated.
The service was pleasant, ordered the poached eggs with bacon and avo, and the pancakes to share.
The poached eggs were done very nicely, and the bacon was extremely fragrant. I spread the avo, bacon, tomato and the poached eggs on the wholemeal bread and ate it all together. It was a delightful dish and I thought the meal couldn't get any better till I tried the pancakes!
The pancakes were really intriguing, my host telling me that the pancakes were fried. To my surprise, not only were the pancakes tasty and fluffy on the inside, but they were crispy on the outside! It was extremely unique and I was delighted with the dish!
Not a fan of the location of this place (way out in botany on a dusty road that people hoon along), but I wanted to try the pancakes. You'd never suspect this place is here between industrial places and across from a tavern looking golf course. The decor is simple but functional. Service was friendly and efficient.
Got the sourdough pancakes with honeycomb cream and berry compote ($16.50) and they were delicious. Nourishing, crisp yet light, and excellent balance of flavours - not too sweet. Also got a choc caramel tart ($6) to take away - yummy and delicate filling but the pastry could be shorter (and at $6 was a bit steep). Finally capped off with a fresh OJ ($5) - good serving but oranges weren't that sweet and it wasn't cold (they didn't have a cold pressed option sadly).
All up really yum but not sure I'd trek down there for it again.
I’ve made it something of a tradition for me to visit Brasserie Bread whenever I visit the airport to pick someone up, it’s a great place for a very Australian brunch after getting off the plane. Brasserie Bread is probably the first place that I specifically drove out to due to a social media post. Someone posted their sourdough pancakes and they looked so good that I just had to go try them for myself. Since then I’ve gone from Facebook spamming to Instagramming food pics to Food Blogging and you can probably blame Brasserie Bread for all of that!

Sort of out in the middle of nowhere. It's actually not that far away but it's on this long stretch of road that makes me feel I'm heading to the outback. So it feels far. I don't go very often but I really should. Best pancakes in Sydney. They're sourdough pancakes with a berry compote and honeycomb cream. I'm huge on texture and that's why I love these. They're not light and fluffy in my book. Rather, spongy and chewy. Sounds odd I know, but so incredibly good. And that texture is what lures me back. No-one else does it like this!? Plus it obviously tastes fantastic with just the right level of sweetness. I really want to try the banana version but I can never pass up ordering the berry pancakes. Maybe one day. Have also had other stuff here. Their pastries are amazing. Especially the almond croissant. Sandwiches are pretty good too. Really tasty but a little on the small/light side for me. Their bread is naturally amazing and the standout in their sandwiches. Not a fan of the coffee. Overall, a fantastic little place that can get really busy during peak hours. The pancakes alone are worth the trip out here.
Mornings at this joint is always packed with bread lovers getting their weekend loot.
A good spot for a quick breakfast on the way to the airport - the good ol' soft boiled egg & vegemite soldiers, chicken avo sandwich and special of the day of Toulouse sausages with baked eggs.
Located in the industrious area of Botany road, the menu is not extensive but the dishes I have tried are all pretty amazing.
I especially love the sourdough pancakes. It’s not sweet and more of a savory pancake and a great breakfast. The pancake is garnished with unsweetened berries (or you can have bananas instead) and topped with honeycomb cream. If you are someone like me who doesn't really like sweet things you've got to try this. My husband ordered lamb shoulders; he mentioned that food was very tasty with all the ingredients perfectly put together. Fantastic coffees and you can buy perfectly made pastries, condiments and breads. Love this place!
Update : came back and ordered banana sourdough pancake this time. This pancake is much sweeter than the berry one. Banana and syrup on the bottom of pancake is really sweet but coconut yogurt offsets the sweet flavour well. I do prefer berry one for my taste but still its a good pancake.

Brasserie bread is truly down to earth. No elaborate furnishings or fancy menus. There's a giant chalkboard menu on the wall calling out as you enter.
We ordered the lamb shoulder hash and the smoked chicken on sourdough. Unconventional as it may be for a breakfast item, the lamb was certainly a winner. It was tender, rich and accompanied with perfectly roasted and flavourful root vegetables and spinach. The smoked chicken was slightly misleading as I was actually expecting smoked chicken pieces but it turned out to be a very basic chicken roll sandwich. It was well done but ordinary. Both dishes were served with freshly baked sourdough. I also really liked the butter they use (Pepe saya butter), which was fabulously rich.
Couldn't leave without buying a pain au chocolat and a chocolate almond croissant for tea and they were top notch. Perfectly crisp on the outside, fluffy interiors and a good amount of filling. What surprised me the most was my coffee! It is hands down the best cappucino I have had in this neck of the woods. I was wondering why it took a while for my coffee to arrive but well worth it for a well brewed cup of coffee. Good job barrista!
Really excited to discover this little hidden gem tucked away in an industrial warehouse close to my suburb. There are so many more pastries that look absolutely decadent such as the lemon tart and the caramel tart. Can't wait to get my hands on them!
Who doesn't love bread? As soon as I stepped into this place, I couldn't stop pointing my fingers to each bread and pastry I saw! A trip to Brasserie is not complete without their light and fluffy Sourdough Pancakes, Croque Monsieur (or Mademoiselle with egg on top) and their amazing caramelised Garlic Bread! But this time.. I'll only talk about their croissants~
All the time I spent to travel paid off with their Award-winning Croissant! From the first bite.. It's so buttery and soft with the crispy and flaky exterior.. They practically melted in your mouth with all that finest quality butter! Try their Pain Chocolat if you want to enjoy the indulgent filling of dark Belgian chocolate..
As for the Almond Croissant, it has those flaky crispy yet buttery layers and it's double-baked with a sugar syrup glaze and toasted almond slivers on top.. The frangipane cream was rich and velvety with the right level of sweetness.
I started buying my bread at Brasserie Bread because of their French Mountain loaf. It was the closest thing I'd found in Australia to pain poliane, a dense chewy sourdough with a hard crust that was almost ubiquitous where I lived in St Germain des Pres. I don't know whether Brasserie Bread still make the French Mountain loaf - I always look for it when I see their stalls at the markets but haven't come across it for a while - but their other sourdoughs are also good. So much bread, so little time ...
Best sandwiches in Sydney! I want to just buy a tub of their garlic aioli too, it's to die for.
Great coffee, service, and food. A regular place for us to visit :-)
Ohhh man. I pinched myself when I tasted Apple danish and Croissant. It was delicious and amazing dressing. The stewards were very professional and their action showed the hotel management skills, but, most importantly the respect towards juniors and superior were totally equal . Now it seems that why Narendra Modi told that Australia is known for Dignity of Labour. Amigo..Aussies mate should visit
Love how transparent this bakery is with it's freshly baked goods! Sandwiches, breads and pastries are delicious! Excited to try a baking class....
Gets a 4.0 because its in a weird location with no good competition nearby (its a organic bakery cafe in an industrial zone) and the coffee was decent. I had the goat yoghurt muesli, a Danish and a coffee. Not good value but I loved the muesli, Danish was old without crispness and coffee was solid. A friend had the sourdough French toast which was strange but filling. Overall its an above average cafe with very filling and satisfying bread.
We kneaded our dough around 5 times, with a short break between each go. The dough was pretty sticky, but with each rest, it became less and less so. On one of the larger kneading breaks, baker Yudha entered the room with a jolly smile and walked us through making our own starter.
Yudha’s practical demonstration included mixing the starter together with a pair of chopsticks, which apparently is the best tool for the job and requires minimal clean up! At the end of the class everyone is given all the instructions on how to make your own starter and sourdough, which is great, so you aren’t frantically trying to remember everything you see!
Once Yudha finished his demonstration, he pulled out the biggest slab of dough I’ve ever seen!

Have only been here to taste their freshly made original sourdough's and sprouted wheat variety but alas they were delicious!
Paired well with Pepe Saya butter! Just think about it - freshly baked bread with butter - it doesn't get any better than that! Unless you add some honey! :P
The single origin wheat is sourced from the Southern Finders range.
Matt who explained to us of how this began also noted that when they first started making the bread he could taste a 'mineraly' taste but then realised it was coming from the soil. All the good nutrients were being tasted in the bread.
When people have that passion for what they do, it shows in the products they produce. Gotta love the passion and the stories that come with it.
I've been here a few times during lunch. Service is good, though the food is terribly over priced for what it is.. $14 for a sandwich!
- will try other meals next time.

I was recently invited to attend Brasserie Bread’s event ‘Single Origin – Celebrate The Source’. I was thrilled to go because a) I love bread and b) I love bread. I invited my Dad along as he is a passionate weekend baker and always sends me out each week to buy a loaf of Brasserie Batard bread from Thomas Dux.
Before I continue, I just wanted to quickly chat about what exactly ‘Single Origin Bread’ means and why it is definitely worth celebrating. Single Origin Bread is, as its name suggests, bread created from a single origin. In Brasserie Bread’s case, they have sourced their flour from the fields at Flinders Ranges. When speaking to co-founder Michael, the need for single origin bread was clear as it ensures traceability and knowing exactly where that beautiful slice of bread was planted, farmed and milled. From the bakers’ point of view, it ensures consistency as the protein levels, moisture and structure of the flour is exactly the same every time. This allows the bakers to truly understand their ingredients and guarantees the same (excellent) product is baked every time. This is unheard of in the bread industry as flour is normally milled with a mixture of different wheat and tracing the source is close to impossible. But after years of searching, Brasserie Bread have done it, and boy that’s worth celebrating!
The event was held at their café and bake house in Banksmeadow. After parking nearby we could have easily found the location using our nose alone as there was the most delicious aroma from a spit of lamb being roasted outside. After making our way inside and receiving our trusty nametags, Dad made a b-line straight to the friendly baker standing behind mountains of freshly baked bread. Nigel, the head baker in Melbourne, was absolutely wonderful. We spoke at length about baking bread (of course!), the new single origin flour and the two breads on show tonight–sourdough and sprouted. Nigel cut us slices of the freshly baked (and my goodness, still warm)
Here in Australia, Brasserie Bread is leading the charge for wheat, having produced the first Australian single origin bread. Both their Single Origin Sourdough and Single Origin Sprouted Wheat are made with flour milled from wheat grown only in the Southern Flinders Ranges of South Australia.
Jo explained to us all that we would be making around 3 types of Gluten Free breads today, and received a recipe booklet with around 5 or 6 recipes to try, including a friand recipe that has me itching to bake soon!
I went with the mushroom ragout with eggplant puree (sans egg) which was amazingly delicious. I’m a sucker for a mushroom dish and this was great – different types of mushrooms piled atop toasted flatbread generous slathered with eggplant puree.
he shortcrust pastry from Brasserie is the same in all three cakes we tried, they hold really well, are gorgeously buttery and so crumbly when you bite into them. No wonder the girl at the counter put on 6 kilos in 3 months, how do you say no to such lovely food after work? The dark chocolate ganache was just divine, I was really into the next few mouthfuls as the caramel is as described, delightfully runny and slightly bitter. A stunning tart.

A couple of Saturday's ago, Cheesecake Boy and I were in Alexandria trying to find an old bookshelf with character at Mitchell Road Auction Centre, but we were out of luck, as we could only find really cool old desks or chairs that we had no need for. Defeated, we decided while we were in the area not to waste the chance to go to our favourite brunch haunt, Brasserie Bread Bakery Cafe for a pick me up. With some of Cheesecake Boy's family in tow, we made the drive to Brasserie Bread. We arrived and were lucky enough to find a park at the front. It was busy inside and we had wait for a table. However, not long after a few spots cleared up and a table was available. Cafe counter Fellow brunchers :) Every time we come here. Without fail, Cheesecake Boy will order the sourdough pancakes with stewed berries and honeycomb cream. This convinced our fellow boy bruncher to go for the other pancakes on the menu being the sourdough pancakes with stewed bananas and pure maple syrup. He loved the p
We drank our Allpress coffee (it was fine) and our massive, too-good-too-be-true-sized bottle of sparkling mineral water. It was all ok, but something felt a little flat. At that point we decided to head off.

Brasserie Bread says, “An artisan baker is a craftsperson who is trained to the highest skill level to, mix, ferment, shape (hand mould) and bake a hand crafted loaf of bread.” This is not industrial, mass-produced bread. Their dough is cold-fermented and slow processed, they use organic ingredients that are nutritious and with no preservatives. With their popular kid’s baking classes, it is also about passing on the knowledge, skills, and passion to the next generation. I love that.
While the breads baked, we went on a delightful little tour of the bread factory and saw the artisan bakers and pastry chefs in action. With blue hair nets and a cautious step on the slippery flour dusted floor, we explored and revelled in the sights, sounds and smells of the bread making process. We came back to enjoy delicious breads, a cheese platter and some wine. I brought home a bag full of absolutely stunning looking bread that I baked myself. It is hard to
The Boy ordered the crispy bacon with poached egg, avocado and tomato on wholemeal toast...Brasserie Bread toast of course ($12.00). He was pretty happy with his brunch however was a bit disappointed that the egg wasn't soft and runny. I went for the Quinoa and Soya Bread with avocado, tomato and goat curd ($11.00). This was a really simple breakfast and a perfect example of how to whip up the perfect brunch at home (I've got three loaves of Brasserie Bread to experiment with after all).
Brasserie Bread is probably our favourite & most go to place for Sunday brunch.

It's not every year that someone gives you a loaf of bread for your birthday, but when that someone is Ms Sourdough and the bread in question is from Brasserie Bakery then the resultant effect is more than just acceptable. Along with this bread also came
The waiter was so confident that I would love this dish that he promised me anything else on the menu for free if I didn't like it... what a challenge!!

Ok, I admit it. I'm not a morning person. Call me out for breakfast and I'll probably turn you down in favour of sleeping in. But there are some places that I will make an exception for - and this is one of them. Tell me you’re taking me to Brasserie Bread for brekky and I’ll gladly leap out of bed to join you.
They say you should never stop learning and growing, whether it is upgrading your skill at work or picking up new knowledge for a hobby. When Brasserie Bread invited me to attend their Home Baker workshop , I was thrilled I’d soon be able to add baking good bread to my list of skills. Other Brasserie Bread baking workshops include Baking with Brioche, Baking with Grains & Seeds, Artisan Baking (Sourdough) and Perfect Pastry. These classes are great as a gifts and can turn an ordinary weeknight into an evening of fun and productivity. The home baking workshop is ideal for those who want to get down to the basics of artisan baking. In a hands-on environment, we learn that baking good bread involves technique, practice, good ingredients and lots of patience. More specifically, we are taught: 1. The correct mixing and hand-kneading technique for even distribution of ingredients 2. The fermentation process and how to allow time for flavours to develop thoroughly and naturally 3. Hand mouldi
Absolutely fabulous breakfast/brunch. Great coffee, great service, quick and a guarenteed consistently excellent meal each and everytime. This place will not disappoint!
A brunch favourite. Consistently delicious, the sourdough pancakes with berry compote and honeycomb cream is a must! We also usually can't go past the Florentine Panini and Croque Madame.
Can get quite busy so we try to get there earlier in the morning. We don't leave empty handed either and often buy some of their delicious bread - the fig and walnut bread being a favourite.
Consistantly Delicious. Been for breakfast many times. Coffee is uniformly excellent and the pancakes, Croque Monsieur and Eggs are all fresh and yummy. Service is always friendly. One of my local faves :)
YUM. I always really enjoy coming here - the service is friendly and not overbearing. Sometimes there is a bit of a wait but the staff try and get people in and out quickly and efficiently. Food is delicious and they have a good variety of lunch time items and brekkie items. Always enjoy coming here then buying some bread & cultured butter for home!
Best bakery by far!!!!!. My first experience of this bakery was amazing, I was so disappointed in myself that I hadn't been there before. Let me just say, hands down the best croissant that I have ever had, it was like no other!!!! A definite must when going there, they were happy enough to pack my food for takeaway so I could enjoy it at home, which was a bummer for me cause I wanted more and more, I had the brioche with spinach, an egg and hollandaise sauce, it had smoked trout but I opted not to add it and my friend had the sourdough pancakes with bananas and maple sauce. I tried both and they were divine, there was so much sauce in both meals which made the food very scrumptious, and for someone like me who doesn't like pancakes at all. They may have changed my love for pancakes ?!

OH Good. Yes Oh Good and Oh God breakfast was just the best coffee is allpress ok not a fan but the piccollo was spot on the open window to the bakery superb we needed a bigger boot for all the bread and cakes we bought
So as this is my first review and im new to this being a critic
Brassierie Bread out of 10 i give it a 7.5
yes we will be back ...again and again .....and again
Croque Monsieur on demand. As the title goes, please order Croque Monsieur for your first time!! You will not be disappointed, 150% guaranteed~
So simple, so delicious. Don't expect a fancy menu, it's very simple and lacking in choice, but the food is very good. What it does offer is great for light brunch, which makes sense cos you gotta leave heaps of room for dessert! Ranging from full meals (sourdough pancakes amazing!!), choc caramel tart (delicious, add your own salt ;) ), other tarts and cakes etc. Coffee I've had over 2 weekends here were delicious. Their dark choc is very sweet but so smooth, would be great in colder weather. I think it's on the pricey side for size of meals, but they make simple things taste so good! Bun-in-Oven must try :) The industrial/warehouse inside is not so great with noisy children though :(
Family-oriented breakfast joint - love the Pancakes!. My fave pancakes in Sydney are from here - they're sourdough pancakes with a chewy texture and slightly sour taste -- love it how its not as filling or sweet like the usual pancakes you get at most other places.
The pork shoulder and hash was fantastic too. friendly waiters and a buzzing eatery.
The only thing I didn't really like were there were too many kids and prams around and the fact you had to order at the counter that slightly detracted away from the cafe experience you'd normally find at weekend brekky places in the inner west.
....still, top-quality food overall!
Caramelised garlic bread is devine!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This place is making plenty of dough. And for great reason. It's a great haven from the hustle and bustle of nearby transport.
Specialising in fabulous assortment of home-style breads, retailed at the immediate front of house, there is also an appealing restaurant .
I met here for a breakfast meeting. Both of us chose the poached eggs, sheep feta and smoked salmon on toast. Choice ingredients, perfect eggs and served well.
Normally going beyond a regular sized coffee order is risky. However their large coffee was delicious and not at all diluted.
On the way out I was successfully enticed in buying 2 loaves for the family. Nom nom.
All in all a great success story. Keep it up.
The smell of fresh bread and coffee envelopes you as soon as you walk into the place, love it. Plenty of breakfast options to choose from too, brioche, sandwiches, brownies, eggs benedict etc.
Fantastic brunch!. This is a great little spot (ok, a bit out of the way) for a lazy Saturday brunch. Cannot recommend the sourdough pancakes enough! Have tried also the croque de monsieur and other savoury b'fast, which are ok but servings could be bigger (it is a bakery, after all!).
They may be a wholesale bakery that stocks cafes around the country, but the Botany HQ is absolutely down-to-earth and has that local community feel, with friendly service. The pistachio raspberry delice was hefty to hold and I did not expect the checkered beauty of the the filling when I sliced into it. Delicious flavour combination of nutty pistachio and tangy raspberry, and very generous with the filling too. The cinnamon kouign amann was crispy and satisfying, like the pastry form of a cinnamon doughnut. Their sourdough needs no introduction - got the emmer wholegrain sourdough this time - best enjoyed toasted with butter and a smattering of sea salt.

Amazing! Head office and Bakery is at the same location.
I can see the place has a dine-in area, due to covid restrictions.
Seatings are unavailable.
But they remain open for takeaway.
Love the AllPress coffee here and the pistachio and raspberry croissants are to die for. Great fresh bread too!
These guys produce the most amazing sourdough breads. We are regulars here now. Good coffee and all day meals. You can watch the bread making process through their display windows. Ample parking spots.
Going here to buy sourdough bread twice a week. Best sourdough bread in town.
Friendly staff and professional service.
Coffee is good too.
Sourdough pancake with berries and cream is a must try.
They sell other goodies such as butter, olive oil, jam and sweeteners.
Can be crowded during weekends.
Wanted to check this place out for a while and finally got to do it today.
Did definitely not disappoint! Great food, lovely team, easy parking and the sourdough was so good I took a whole loaf home (and might have already eaten half of it).
