About Arcadia Bakehouse
Arcadia Bakehouse is the kind of bakery that makes a trip to Magnetic Island easier to plan, because one visitor ends up working their lunch around it. It's family-owned, with pies, pastries, coffee and bubble tea baked on site, and everything comes fresh from the oven.
Pies are what people talk about first. The pepper steak and the jalapeno and cheese get particular praise, and one visitor called the meat pie the best they'd had on the east coast. Sausage rolls, almond croissants and baguettes come up often too. The pork belly and chicken baguettes are popular, and one traveller said a roasted mushroom baguette was packed to the brim for the price. Locals also rave about the cheesecake, and fresh sourdough loaves are there if you want bread to take home.
Custom cake orders are part of the offering, and we hear the cakes are beautifully decorated. The team is also said to be accommodating with allergy requirements, and gluten-free options are available. The staff get warm mentions for chatting with customers and happily tweaking an order.
You can dine in or take away, with coffee and breakfast on the menu. There's free parking out front and a car park with a wheelchair-accessible entrance, and cards and tap payments are accepted. We hear dogs are welcome. It's worth checking the hours before you head over, as it isn't open every day of the week.
