About Melbourne Bakehouse

Melbourne Bakehouse is an old-school bakery and cafe in Port Melbourne offering pies and a place to sit down. The counter covers a lot of ground: sourdough and fresh bread, handmade pastries, celebration and custom cakes, plus a sandwich bar where things are made to order. The website describes it as a traditional bakehouse crafting bread and cakes by hand since 1991, and the tagline, "real bread, family moments, baked in Port Melbourne", sums up the feel.

The pies are what many locals bring up first. We hear they come out hot, generously sized and well packed with meat, and the sausage rolls get the same praise. The egg and bacon roll is another regular order. The pastry side has earned a good word for the French vanilla slice and the carrot cake. The fresh bread is worth a mention, and a chicken schnitzel sandwich on it won someone over. One local found a pie's pastry thick and soggy, and another felt the tsoureki could be softer. If you're particular about pastry, quality varies across their range.

Coffee gets a regular nod, and so does the pricing, which locals describe as fair for the quality and the portions. Gluten-free options are available, including wraps with fresh fillings, and vegetarian choices turn up on the counter as well. Staff come across as friendly and attentive, and one customer was especially grateful for a kind and patient woman behind the counter on a rushed morning.

You can dine in, with indoor and outdoor seating, or take away or pick up in store. They also offer delivery and catering across Melbourne if you're feeding a crowd, and custom cakes can be ordered ahead. Accessibility is covered, with a wheelchair-accessible entrance, seating and car park, and there's free street parking and a car park. They take cards and tap payments. It's open early through the week and on weekends, but check the hours before you head in.
