Why Choose The Magical 2D cafe & Bakehouse?
The Magical 2D cafe & Bakehouse is known for handmade Indian breads, especially the soft Ladi Pav that gives vada pav its authentic street-food flavour.

About The Magical 2D cafe & Bakehouse
The Magical 2D cafe & Bakehouse is a bakery-cafe in Parramatta built around handmade Indian breads, and the soft Ladi Pav is the heart of it. Those pavs are made in-house, which is why the vada pav tastes so much like the street-food stalls people remember from home. The tagline says it plainly: a 2D cafe, with hand-drawn black-and-white artwork on the walls by co-founder Hirwa Darji, alongside her husband Siddharth Darji, a baker with nearly ten years in the trade.
Order here and you'll find plenty of the classics. Vada pav gets mentioned most, along with bun maska, dabeli, pani puri, pav bhaji and the ginger tea. Locals rave about the masala chai in particular, made from the house chai masala. One local found the bun maska plainer than its reputation, and another would take the ragda and pani puri separately rather than together. That's a fair sign of how much on the menu people have an opinion about. The menu is vegetarian, with vegan options too, and it covers breakfast through to dinner, so it works for a quick bite on the go or a longer sit-down with a group.
The food comes out in generous portions and at fair prices for what you get. The staff are friendly and welcoming, and one local told us it reminded them of Mumbai. The place can get busy, which tells you something, and one group had a mix-up over tables, so it pays to call ahead if you're planning a larger gathering.
You can dine in, get takeaway, or have it delivered, and kerbside pickup is available too. They're open daily and late into the evening, though it's worth checking the hours before you head in. If you're after handmade pav and proper Indian street food in Parramatta, this is worth considering.
