Why Choose Kenny's Bakery Cafe?

Kenny's is known locally for banh mi that gets genuine praise, crispy bread straight from the oven, fresh salad, and generous fillings.

Quick service and fair prices make it a solid choice for a quality lunch grab in Melbourne.

About Kenny's Bakery Cafe

The banh mi is the main drawcard. The crispy pork roll gets plenty of praise, with crunchy bread, fresh salad and plenty of filling. If pork isn't your thing, the tofu roll is juicy and filling, and the chicken schnitzel sandwich has won over visitors who stumbled in with no expectations. Rice bowls with pork sausage and pickled carrots also come up, and the bacon and egg roll is a regular recommendation for breakfast. For non-meat eaters, there are vegan options on the menu.

Bread comes fresh from the oven, which is why the rolls have that crackle people mention. Coffee is on offer as well, and the team greet regulars by name and remember their order.

It gets very busy around lunchtime, though the queue tends to move quickly. If you have a particular request, speak up clearly. Most describe the staff as friendly and the cafe as clean and relaxed.

You can dine in, take away or pop in to shop at the counter, and the entrance is wheelchair-accessible. Cards and mobile payments are accepted. It's open weekdays, so check the hours before heading in.
