What is Central Bakehouse in Keysborough known for?

Spring rolls, wontons and rice paper rolls also have a following, along with green cakes some regulars have bought since childhood.

Can I get a banh mi with chilli at Central Bakehouse?

Yes, chilli is offered when you order a roll, and regulars say it is worth saying yes to as it gives the banh mi a real kick. If you prefer it milder or want no chilli at all, be clear with the server when ordering, as a few customers have found extras added or left out despite requests.

By default the bread isn't toasted, so ask the server if you'd like your banh mi toasted. The bread itself is generally described as fresh and generous in size, bigger than some nearby alternatives, with decent fillings when you order favourites like the chicken, roast pork or BBQ pork roll.

What else besides banh mi does Central Bakehouse sell?

Beyond its well-known banh mi rolls, Central Bakehouse sells spring rolls, wontons, rice paper rolls and noodles in takeaway boxes, as well as green cakes that some regulars have been buying for years. For current pricing on any item, it's best to ask the bakery directly.
