Why Choose Queen Amann Bakery?

Queen Amann Bakery specialises in kouign-amann and croissants with impressive lamination and caramelisation that locals return for. The pastries, from strawberry matcha to pistachio and lychee danish, are the standout, though sourdough, pies and sausage rolls are also available. Service is friendly and efficient, and the relaxed café atmosphere works well for a morning visit or takeaway.

About Queen Amann Bakery

Queen Amann Bakery is a Bowen Hills bakery built around caramelised pastries from Brittany, France, and the kouign-amann is the one people talk about most. Locals pick their flavour from a fair range, from the original to strawberry matcha, and the flaky, sticky-glazed layers are what bring them back. The pistachio croissant and the lychee danish get a mention too, along with the sweet and filled croissants.

It isn't only sweet things. Pies and sausage rolls sit in the warmer, and there are handcrafted sourdough loaves, though anyone expecting a wall of bread should know the pastries are the real focus. We've heard opinion is a little split on the savoury side, with the odd comment about dryness, so the pastries are the safer bet. Coffee and matcha drinks are on offer, plus breakfast.

You can eat in, either inside or out, or take away, pick up in store or have it delivered. They also take custom cake orders and cater for events, so ask the bakery directly about timing. Staff are friendly and efficient even when it's busy, though seating is limited and it can get loud and cramped at peak times. Prices run a touch higher, and locals feel the quality mostly justifies it.

It's accessible, with a wheelchair-accessible entrance, seating, toilet and car park, and there's free street parking nearby. Cards and tap payments are accepted. Check the hours before heading in, and go earlier in the day if you want the crunch at its best.
