Why Choose The Pocket Storehouse?

The Pocket Storehouse is known for slow-fermented organic sourdough across bread, pastries and hot food, with seven low FODMAP certified loaves that suit dietary needs. Locals visit repeatedly for the fresh cabinet, generous toasties, and friendly service, they're busy and often sell out, so arrive early for the best selection.

About The Pocket Storehouse

The Pocket Storehouse is Kepnock's organic sourdough bakery, and the tagline on the door says as much: Bundaberg's Organic Sourdough Bakery. Everything here leans on slow-fermented sourdough, from the loaves to the pastries to the toasties, and it's made with organic ingredients.

Loaves are the headline, including seven low FODMAP certified sourdough products, which is a real draw if you're managing a sensitive gut. Beyond bread, the cabinet is full of organic pastries and homemade cakes, plus sourdough pasta. Locals rave about the toasties, which come generously sized, and visitors from out of town have called them the best they've eaten. One customer tips the pickle scroll as a standout. Gluten-free choices sit alongside the sweet and savoury lines, and custom cake orders are on offer too.

The word is that it's an easy place to stay a while. You can dine in or take away, with coffee and breakfast on the menu, and the fit-out has a warm, barn-door charm that people like. Staff get a lot of credit for being friendly and taking time with each person at the counter, even when the line reaches the door. Access is good, with a wheelchair-accessible entrance, seating and toilet, plus free parking on the street and in a car park. Cards and tap payments are accepted.

It gets busy, queues are common, and the best things sell out. One visitor who arrived near closing time found the bread gone, so go early if loaves are the aim. Service can be a little slow at the peak, and one local felt the toastie serves were large for the price and wished for a half-size option. Most people call the prices good value for organic food.

Trading days are limited and fall mostly across the middle of the week and into the weekend, so check the hours before you head in.
