About Ferguson Plarre's Bakehouse

If you're after a bakery in Niddrie, Victoria, Ferguson Plarre's Bakehouse is there to help. It's part of the wider Ferguson Plarre network, which has shops across Melbourne, Geelong and Ballarat, and the Niddrie branch covers the everyday basics: pies and savouries, cakes, cupcakes, donuts, and a coffee to go with them. Breakfast is on the menu too, and there are vegan options for those who need them.

Pies, vanilla slices, lamingtons and passionfruit tarts are on offer, and customers mention the coffee too. We've heard the coffee is quick and made just right, and that soy and other milks are no trouble. Some people find the coffee a touch pricey for what it is, so it's worth knowing that going in.

Custom cakes are a real strength here. People who've ordered birthday cakes talk warmly about how easy the process was, from sorting out a particular design to getting the finished cake home. One parent was won over by a team member who took real care helping their son choose the perfect Batman image for a fifth birthday cake. Another local said a marble cake with a gold drip, big enough for 25 guests, was moist, looked stunning and came in at a fair price compared with other quotes they'd gathered. A red velvet mud cake for an 85th birthday also got a glowing mention.

The staff get plenty of friendly words, and regulars speak well of Anthony and his team for running a tidy operation. Like any busy shop, it isn't flawless. We've heard of the odd slow moment at the counter, and one local felt the floor could have used a sweep.

For convenience, you can order takeaway, delivery or in-store pick-up, and catering platters are available for bigger gatherings. There's free parking out front and a free car park, with a wheelchair-accessible entrance and car park. Cards and tap payments are accepted. The shop is open seven days, with slightly shorter hours on weekends, though it's worth checking before you head in. For custom cakes, put your order in ahead of time.
