About Cedar Bakery
Cedar Bakery in Moonee Ponds is a Lebanese-inspired bakery and café, and the bread is where it starts. Locals talk about the warm, soft flatbreads that come out fresh from the oven, and the manoush has a following of its own: za'atar, cheese, lamb and sujuk all get a mention. The pies are another draw, with the cheese pie coming up as a favourite.
Beyond the baking, there's a proper café menu. People rave about the dips served with warm bread, the lamb skewers, falafel and pickles, and a knefeh to finish. Coffee and breakfast are on, and there are ready-to-serve dips and heat-at-home pastries if you'd rather take something away. It works for dine-in or takeaway, and they also cater for team meetings, family gatherings and private events.
We hear the portions are generous and the prices fair for what you get, and the staff are warm and welcoming. Easy parking helps, with a free car park and wheelchair-accessible entry, and you can pay by card or phone. One local was let down by an undercooked falafel pocket and a gruff exchange with the manager, though the pies and counter service got a thumbs up. Hours run through the week, so check them before you head in.
