About Woodfrog Bakery Camberwell
Woodfrog Bakery Camberwell is an artisan bakery in Camberwell, Victoria, and sourdough is a drawcard. The loaves are handmade, baked fresh daily and given a long fermentation. Locals single out the pumpkin sourdough, a moist, soft loaf with roasted pumpkin, linseeds and soaked soybeans under a properly crisp crust. We've also heard good things about the olive sourdough, which one regular picks up now and then to have with homemade minestrone.
Beyond the bread, the counter runs to croissants, almond croissants, Danishes, scones and baguettes. People mention that the smell of fresh baking pulls them in, and that the pastries come across as rustic and handmade. Some call the lamination and crunch of the croissants among the better ones they've had, while others found a croissant or scone on a quieter afternoon less fresh than they'd hoped. The baguette, though, gets a consistently good word. One bagel-lover was let down by how closely the bagels resembled bread, so go for the sourdough and pastries first.
It's a friendly shop. The staff get plenty of praise, and one local who hosts a monthly networking breakfast there talks warmly about how smoothly the team looks after a group. There are vegan options alongside the dairy-based bakes, and you can order a coffee and breakfast, either to take away or to enjoy there. People say there are some pleasant treed benches out the front, near the Camberwell Fresh Market end of Burke Road. The entrance is wheelchair-accessible, and the shop takes card and tap payments, so bring a card rather than cash.
Woodfrog is a multi-location bakery across Melbourne, and this branch is a convenient stop if you're after a proper loaf or a pastry on the way past. Check the hours before you head in, and if you want a particular sourdough, going earlier in the day tends to suit.

What Customers Say on Google
“If you are a sourdough lover, Woodfrog Bakery is a must-visit. I just picked up their signature Pumpkin Sourdough, and it's honestly one of the best loaves I've ever had in Melbourne. The crumb is incredibly moist and pillowy inside, packed with roasted pumpkin goodness, linseeds, and soaked soybeans for that perfect texture and extra protein, while the crust has that perfect artisanal shatter.”
