About Coonalpyn Bakery

Pies are what Coonalpyn Bakery is known for, and it's the kind of country stop where a pie and a coffee turn into a proper break. If you're driving through Coonalpyn in South Australia, this bakery is well worth pulling in for.

We've heard plenty of praise for the pepper steak pie, with its thin flaky top and sturdier base, and the onion pie has its own fans. Pasties come out well filled with a good balance of meat and veg, and the sausage rolls, custard tarts and doughnuts get a tick too. The sugar iced Berliner with its home-made jam is a favourite for regulars who make this a must-stop. Mixed and curried sandwiches have also drawn compliments, with one traveller reckoning they beat many city shops. Pies are priced fairly for what you get, and locals consider them good value.

It runs as a takeaway bakery with coffee on offer, and you can pay by card or phone. The counter doubles as the local post office, so the person serving may be juggling a few jobs at once. Many people find the staff friendly and the service quick, though we'll be straight that opinion on the welcome is a little split, and a few visitors have found it brusque. The food is what keeps most people happy.

Across the road you'll find the silo art, toilets and a dog exercise park, which makes it an easy place to stretch your legs. The bakery keeps weekday hours and is closed on weekends, so check before you head in.
