About Jambo Pastry Filipino Eatery
Jambo Pastry Filipino Eatery is a small, unassuming spot in Manunda, Queensland, and it works as much as a Filipino eatery as a bakery. The kitchen turns out home-style Filipino meals, and there's bread coming out of the oven on site, including pan de sal. The smell of fresh-baked bread fills the moment you walk in, and one visitor was sent off with a bag of it to taste.
The menu changes from day to day, usually with a few dishes to pick from alongside rice, and there are vegetarian options too. People rave about the soups and the adobo, and the desserts get just as much attention: red bean pastry, flan, a crème caramel one local had been hunting for a long time, and halo-halo. Ube ice cream often turns up with the lunch deals.
The people behind the counter are a big part of why visitors keep coming back. The staff are warm and friendly, and we hear Mila and Anne are the heart of the place. One local was even cooked a dish that wasn't on the menu that day, just because they asked. Prices are known to be easy on the wallet.
You can dine in or take away. It gets busy over the lunch rush, so a slightly earlier or later visit may be easier. The car park is wheelchair accessible, and the place is LGBTQ+ friendly. The hours suit a weekday or weekend lunch, but check them before you head in.
