About Burnt Bridge Bakehouse
Burnt Bridge Bakehouse is a family-owned bakery in Croydon, Victoria, and pies are what people tend to bring up first. Locals describe them as generously sized, dense and full, with steak and pepper and chilli among the ones folks rave about. One truckie who passes through a couple of times a week says he stops every time.
Beyond the pies, you'll find fresh bread baked daily, sausage rolls, danishes, sandwiches, hot dogs, doughnuts, caramel tarts and a coffee people enjoy. There are gluten-free options too, which one regular with a gluten-free diet appreciates. Cakes are a strong suit as well. They take custom orders for special occasions, and a chocolate mousse sponge for a birthday went down well with everyone from kids to seniors. Catering is on offer, and one local who ordered platters for a work morning tea says the order was ready ahead of schedule and looked great.
The staff get plenty of kind words for being friendly and polite, and prices are described as fair. We've also heard they pass unsold baked goods from the day on to community cupboards and services, which locals clearly appreciate.
Opinion is not unanimous: one person had a disappointing pie and suggested a closer check before serving. That is the exception, though, and the general feeling around Croydon is a warm one.
The car park and entrance are both wheelchair-accessible. Check the hours before heading in, as the weekend schedule is shorter than weekdays and it can get busy.
