Why Choose The Albion Bakehouse?

Pies are the standout here, locals rave about the steak and bacon varieties and the crispy potato pie loaded with steak chunks. The banh mi, doughnuts, custard tarts and lemon meringue tart all draw consistent praise. Staff are noted for their friendliness, and prices are fair for the quality and generous portions on offer.

About The Albion Bakehouse

The pies are what get people talking at The Albion Bakehouse, a bakery in Albion, Queensland. One customer praised the steak and cheese, the steak, bacon and cheese, and a potato-topped pie with a creamy top and plenty of steak chunks through the middle. One newcomer from across the Tasman said it ranked among the best bakeries they'd tried since moving to Australia, and another reckons the pie here is the best they've had in Brisbane so far.

Pies are only part of the story. The banh mi gets a lot of love, especially toasted with chilli and soy, and the sausage rolls and custard tarts come up often too. The custard tart is a must-try for one regular, who plans on plenty more visits. There's also a lemon meringue tart that one person described with real passion, praising the charred, bouncy meringue and a lemon curd that's tangy without tasting artificial. A mango coconut mousse cake has had a fan too, and there's coffee, including Vietnamese iced coffee, if you want something to go with it.

Helpful staff are part of the appeal, and people tend to find the prices decent. You can eat in, shop in-store or grab takeaway, and breakfast is on the menu. It's an easy stop for most: there's a free car park, a wheelchair-accessible entrance and car park, and card and tap payments are all fine.

We've heard grumbles, including a dry sausage roll, a pastry that wasn't as fresh as hoped, and a sourdough loaf that came out with big holes. If bread is your priority, you may want to start with the pies and pastries, where the praise is strongest.

They open early, with shorter hours on weekends, so check the hours before you head in.
