Incredible food, coffee and service. I love going into the Backstreet Bakehouse for a treat and warm drink and I never leave disappointed. I am always welcomed by a happy face and friendly greeting. I highly recommend the Backstreet Bakehouse - ticks every box!
Such a great atmosphere! Delicious food, gorgeous staff and coffee to brag about!!!
Thoroughly enjoyed our pies and sweets!
Hands down the best coffee in town �
Great little bakery, to be found in the backstreets of Merimbula as the name implies. The pies are simply delishous and a world apart from the other bakeries in the area. Highly recommended and well worth a visit.
Obviously this place has recently changed ownership, I had been led to believe it wasn't all that good but I was gladly surprised. Probably the best Pie I've had in years and some really great looking cakes and breads on display. I highly recommend the place.
Now called Backstreet Bakery.
Wish I found this bakery earlier in my stay at Merimbula. We tried pie, tarts and muffins, all were fantastic and reasonably priced. Highly recommended. Must visit when you are nearby.

...the cheese and bacon pie was so good we came back the next morning to have them for breakfast!
Nice fresh food, chunky steak pie and the caramel custard eclair I had were very good and tasty, there is plenty of good choices including salad rolls and sandwiches and a choice of drinks. Prices are good. When I visit Merimbula I always make sure to drop in and grab some lunch, the staff are friendly and welcoming too which is great.
Love this bakery, bread is the best in town by a country mile. Staff are knowledgeable friendly and helpful. Well worth a visit if you can find them as they are not on the main street!
Open early, very friendly service, nice coffee and breakfast pie. Highly recommend.
My favourite cafe and bakery in Merimbula, the coffee is Superb the cakes are to die, the staff are great and I am addicted to the Danish Pastries which are doing very little for my waistline. Very reasonably priced which is rare on the far south coast. My tip is to get in early if your after Sourdough or Danishes.
Have tried the various bakeries available in the area & surrounds but keep coming back to Backstreet Bakehouse. Extremely friendly staff & bread that is just beautifully baked, try the baguettes for lunch & take a sour dough rye home for breakfast toast you won't be disappointed. Lovely cakes as well!
I live in Houston, TX. I contacted Jo to make and deliver a cake for a dear family member in Merimbula. She went above and beyond. The cake looked amazing and I hear tasted the same. She made out a card to go with the cake which is such a personal touch!! I highly recommend Backstreet Bakehouse!
This bakery would appear to have recently been sold, the old owners had really let the place slide, and the display cabinets were virtually empty at times, On my last visit this month however I found that new life has been put into the place and the Backstreet Bakehouse is back to it's former glory. Pies are the best in town and the bread is simply awesome, Congratulations to the new owners and thanks for saving this Merimbula Icon.
This place is great. It has the best coffee at the best price in town. I've only had the sourdough, but as a sample it was great (not as tart as I like, but super flavorful, and welcomes a layer of butter, but doesn't need it).
