About Wholegreen
Wholegreen is a fully gluten-free bakery and cafe in Bondi Junction, New South Wales, and for anyone eating coeliac-safe it's a name worth knowing. Everything on the counter is handmade from scratch, and the products are coeliac-accredited, which takes a lot of the worry out of a visit.
Cherie Lyden spent years as a nutritionist and working in food before founding the bakery, and that background shows in how seriously the place takes gluten-free baking. The tagline is "Gluten-Free. Local. Artisan.", and it's an honest summary. You'll find sourdough and takeaway loaves, pastries, pies, sausage rolls, croissants, cakes and sweet treats, with vegan and vegetarian options in the mix too. Coffee is part of the picture, and you can eat in, grab something to go, or have it delivered. Catering is available as well.
The pies are what some people come for. We've heard the beef pie has proper chunks of meat rather than the ground-up stuff, and that the pastry holds together well enough to eat one-handed. One local who tried an earlier version and wasn't won over went back after a recipe overhaul and came away calling the new fillings delicious. The croissants get plenty of love too, ham and cheese and almond among them, with real layers and crispness that surprise people who've been let down by gluten-free versions before. Chocolate eclairs, brownies and cookies come up as well, and the tarts are popular if you need something for a party. As one local put it, nobody would guess it was gluten free.
Families newly navigating a coeliac diagnosis seem especially grateful. Some now make it a weekend ritual, and one parent described feeling their faith in gluten-free food restored after a few disappointing tries elsewhere. Staff are friendly and quick to help you choose, and value for money gets a nod.
There are a few counter seats inside and tables out the front, on a fairly quiet street with free parking nearby. The bakery is open daily, but check the hours before you head in. Wholegreen also supplies wholesale to retailers, including Harris Farm Markets, if you'd rather pick up a loaf closer to home.

What Customers Say on Google
“The manager behind the counter smirked at my jokes. That means a lot. Despite his obvious great sense of humour - or maybe because of - he supplied a superb beef pie. It actually had real chunks of beef, not the normal ground up stuff.”
“Ever since my coeliac disease diagnosis around six weeks ago, Wholegreen Bakery has become our weekend tradition. We make the trip every weekend, and it's something we genuinely look forward to. The food is consistently incredible.”

Frequently Asked Questions About Wholegreen
Yes. Wholegreen is a fully gluten-free bakery and cafe, with everything handmade from scratch and coeliac-accredited. Several customers who have been diagnosed coeliac describe it as a reliable weekend tradition precisely because cross-contamination isn't a worry, which is rare for a bakery that still turns out croissants, pies and tarts.
It's best known for its pies, especially the slow-cooked grass-fed beef pie and the free-range chicken, mushroom and leek pie, along with croissants, almond croissants and custom cakes. The sourdough loaves (plain, seeded, charcoal and turmeric, olive and rosemary, fruit and spice) and sausage rolls also get regular praise from visitors.
Along with being entirely gluten-free, Wholegreen offers vegan options such as the vegan curry pie, plus vegetarian choices like spanakopita and quiche lorraine. Staff are noted as friendly and happy to help people work out what suits their diet, which matters for families managing coeliac disease or multiple intolerances.
Both. The cafe offers dine-in with indoor counter seating and outdoor tables, as well as takeaway and delivery. It's set up for breakfast, brunch, lunch and dessert, with coffee and pastries alongside the bread and pie counter, so it works equally well for a quick takeaway loaf or a sit-down coffee and tart.
Yes, custom cakes are one of the things Wholegreen is known for, and one visitor described a passionfruit celebration cake as a standout. Catering options include the assorted viennoiserie box and mini Danish trays for pickup. For pricing or to arrange a custom cake, it's best to contact the bakery directly.
