About L'épi Artisan Bakery - Yarralumla
L'épi Artisan Bakery in Yarralumla is a French-style bakery and café, and locals mostly reach for the pastries first. People rave about the croissants and the pear almond tart, and the trio chocolate cake gets mentioned often. Sourdough loaves and sourdough cookies sell well too, and if you want something savoury, the pepper steak and mince steak pies have a following of their own. Quiche lorraine and lemon meringue turn up in conversation as well.
You can take it away or sit down with a coffee and breakfast. We've heard the coffee is reliably good, and the staff are generally described as warm and welcoming, even when the place is busy. One regular who drives to Canberra several times a month says the bread is the reason they keep coming back.
It's a small, cosy room, so indoor seating can be hard to find in the morning rush. A couple of people have found the noise level and the furniture less than comfortable, and one or two have had a flatter experience with service, but the overall word around Yarralumla is positive.
They also take on catering for social and corporate events, and custom cakes are part of the offering. Parking is free nearby, and the entrance and car park are wheelchair accessible. It's smart to look up the hours, especially for a weekend visit.
