About Phil's Hot Bread Shop
Phil's Hot Bread Shop is a bakery in Woonona on the NSW coast, doing the everyday work of a neighbourhood hot bread shop. Pies are what it's known for, and locals mention the curry pie and the sausage roll most often. The steak and mushroom pie turns up in the conversation too.
Bread is a big part of the draw. The sliced loaf has a following among families, and we hear the white flat rolls and the soft ham and cheese rolls go down well. Cheese and bacon rolls come up again and again as a favourite with kids and adults alike. If you're after loaves, don't leave it too late in the day, as the bread can sell out fast.
Beyond the savoury side, you'll find custard tarts and lamingtons in the cabinet. Prices are friendly, with the ham and cheese singled out as affordable, which suits a quick lunch run or a bag of rolls for the week.
It's a takeaway operation, so plan on eating at home, at work or in the car. Payment is worth a thought before you go: card and tap-to-pay are listed, but some locals have run into cash-only signs at the counter, so bring cash just in case. Opening hours cover most of the week with a shorter day on weekends, so check the hours before you head in.
