Why Choose Bakery & Cafe?

This Evans Head bakery earns strong local loyalty for its pies, fresh salad rolls and generously filled savoury items made to order. Staff will happily prepare custom rolls when the fridge stock runs out, and the chocolate milkshake and coffee are worth ordering in their own right.

About Bakery & Cafe

Bakery & Cafe in Evans Head is the kind of old-style bakery where the pies do most of the talking. Locals know it for a good, filling pie, and the chicken curry pie in particular gets a mention, with plenty of veg and chicken in the filling and a crust that isn't too thick. Sausage rolls, pastries, cakes and bread sit alongside them in the cabinet.

There's more to it than the pie warmer. We hear the salad rolls are generous and fresh, and one local was delighted when staff made up a roast beef and chutney roll on the spot after the fridge had sold out. The chocolate milkshake gets plenty of love too, thick, icy cold and creamy. Sweet-tooth customers also point to the scones and the caramel slice.

You can dine in or take away, and breakfast and coffee are on offer, with prices that locals describe as fair for the portions. Staff are friendly, and the shop has a wheelchair-accessible entrance and car park. Cards and tap-and-go payments are accepted.

We've heard the odd grumble about slow coffee service and the occasional pie that wasn't piping hot, so it can pay to head in outside the busiest stretch. Hours run from early morning most days, with a shorter day on weekends, so check before you go.
