About Tonton Bread
Tonton Bread is a French bakery in Surry Hills, New South Wales that people visit regularly. The bread is made with long fermentation and single-origin flour, and sourdough is what it's best known for. One local picked up a viking loaf with a deep, properly fermented flavour, and the fougasse was chewy and generous with olives. The olive focaccia and olive bread get fond mentions too, along with a huge hazelnut loaf that turned up as a happy surprise.
The pastry side is just as strong. Croissants and kouign amann come up most, with a buttery, crisp dough, and the Paris Brest with its rich hazelnut filling is a favourite. There's also a crookie (half cookie, half croissant) that sells out, so don't count on it late in the day. People rave about the chocolate flan, the brioche buns and the prosciutto baguette with mozzarella and pesto. The bakery says Adrien, the head baker, spent a decade with renowned Parisian baking houses, and Véronique, the pastry virtuoso, brought expertise from some of Paris's finest hotels. It shows in the work.
It's a busy, friendly shop. Locals mention cheerful staff at the counter, and one visitor from Korea said the team explained everything in detail and slipped them a little extra bread. Plenty of choice is on offer. If you're taking pastries away, one regular's tip is to warm them briefly in an air fryer to bring back the crispness, since a few things soften with time. Seating is basic, so think of it as a grab-and-go stop, with coffee and breakfast on hand and a nice wander past the nearby local shops.
They also offer takeaway, delivery and catering. Check the hours before you head in.
