Wang Bakehouse

Frequently Asked Questions About Wang Bakehouse

What is Wang Bakehouse in Burwood known for?

Wang Bakehouse has a Japanese-leaning menu built around shio pan (salt bread), canelés and matcha. The salt bread comes in flavours like garlic, strawberry cream and mentaiko tuna, and is best eaten in the morning while warm and crisp. Canelés come in flavours such as earl grey, pistachio cream and matcha, and the matcha itself is made strong and not overly sweet.

Is the salt bread always available at Wang Bakehouse?

It's popular enough that it can sell out, with some visitors arriving to find it gone, so getting to this Burwood bakery earlier in the day gives the best chance of trying it fresh and warm. Queues have been known to form around midday, so turning up outside peak times is worth considering.

Does Wang Bakehouse have seating for dine-in?

Yes, Wang Bakehouse offers both takeaway and dine-in, though the Burwood space is small and cosy with limited seating. On busy days, especially weekends, all tables can fill up quickly, so takeaway is a reliable option if you're after a quick coffee or pastry on the go.

What drinks does Wang Bakehouse serve alongside its pastries?

Coffee and a range of matcha drinks are the main drawcards, including hojicha, yuzu matcha and jasmine matcha, often served iced or as a latte. The matcha is generally made potent and not overly sweetened, which locals tend to appreciate, though it can be strong for those wanting a milder cup.

What payment methods does Wang Bakehouse accept?

Wang Bakehouse takes credit cards, debit cards and NFC mobile payments, so contactless tap-and-go is easy whether you're grabbing a quick takeaway coffee or sitting in for pastries. For current pricing on items like the canelés or shio pan, it's best to ask the bakery directly.
