About Otto's Bakery

Otto's Bakery sits at the quieter end of Hahndorf's busy main street, which suits the people who seek it out. Locals describe it as a real find for a bakery in Hahndorf, a place to slip away from the tourist crowds and get something fresh from the oven. Some Adelaide Hills regulars have been stopping in since they were kids and still drive up just for an excuse to call in.

Pies are the main event. We hear about the lamb and rosemary with its slow-cooked chunks of meat, a chicken and mushroom pie in a tall, firm shell, and a spicy pepper pie that one local picks up for his dad as part of a regular routine. A beef mince, cheese and chilli pie also gets a good word, as does the classic beef. The family-size pies are known for stretching a long way, and people call them good value. Pasties and sausage rolls are on the counter too.

If you're after something sweet, the vanilla slice is the one people name, along with custard tarts, mint slice, a cherry slice, apple pie and the bienenstich, a German-style cake that the welcoming staff recommended to one visitor. There are also fresh loaves, rolls, baguettes and pretzels. One visitor found a pasty light on filling and not very warm, but most people leave happy.

You can dine in or take away, and gluten-free options are available. There's coffee and breakfast, plenty of seating inside and out, free parking, and a wheelchair-accessible entrance and car park. Cards and tap payments are accepted. Doors open early, which helps if you're heading off for the day and want pies for the road. Check the hours before you go, and note that there are no toilets on site.
