About Banjo’s Bakery Café - Riverside
Banjo's Bakery Café in Riverside is part of the Banjo's franchise, so it's a familiar sort of stop if you're after something quick for breakfast or lunch in this part of Tasmania. The menu runs wide: breads baked fresh on site, pies and savouries, donuts, muffins, sandwiches and rolls, plus coffee, chai and other drinks. You can dine in, grab takeaway, or have it delivered, and they take custom cake orders and do catering too.
Pies are what the area seems to know them for. We've heard good things about the Tasmanian scallop pie, and one local raves about the spinach and ricotta rolls. The apple crumble donut gets a mention as well, along with a croissant filled with tomato, ham and smashed eggs. The prices are generally seen as reasonable, and the staff are often described as friendly, with a couple of names (Francis on coffees, Maddy on the counter) coming up as favourites.
It's not a flawless record. Some locals have found the service slow at busy times, and now and then a pie or loaf hasn't hit the mark, so it's a bit hit and miss. If you order delivery, double-check your order.
Parking is free right outside, and there's wheelchair-accessible parking and entry. Doors open early and run through the day, seven days a week, but check the hours before you head in.

“Great service and great food every time I visit! Since the new manager, Josh, started, I have noticed a huge positive difference throughout the store. The staff all seem much happier, more engaged, and provide excellent customer service.”
“Best pies (an actual proper pie- eat with one hand and chunky meat) and very lovely service from the young girl with tattoos (didn't catch her name).”
“The spinach and ricotta rolls were the best I have ever had! So good I had three and a half (my friend had the other half) but I didn't really want to share!”
