About Chris 'N Di's

Pies are what Chris 'N Di's is known for, and it's a stop travellers make when passing through Stawell. This bakery in Stawell, Victoria sits right off the Western Highway, with free parking out the front and a car park that's easy to get into. That's a big part of why tradies and workers come through.

The pie and pasty cabinet gets most of the attention. Locals rave about the steak and pepper pie, and there's a steak and curry that has its fans too. Sausage rolls, pasties, bacon and egg rolls and a salad bar for fresh rolls and sandwiches round out the savoury side. Sandwiches move quickly, which keeps them fresh, and we hear the pies tend to come out hot. On the sweet side there are slices, cakes and a long john donut that one visitor enjoyed for its vanilla cream.

You can take your order away or settle in. The indoor eating area is described as clean and inviting, and people like the country-bakery character of the place. Breakfast is on offer, and cards and tap payments are accepted. The entrance and car park are wheelchair accessible.

Staff come up again and again when people talk about it. One regular said it feels like visiting family, and another travels an hour and a half and still can't drive through town without stopping. Prices are seen as fair for what you get.

To be fair, not everything lands for everyone. A couple of people weren't won over by the coffee, and one found a few of the slices a bit average, so this is a bakery to visit for the pies and savouries first. The place is a little on the dark side inside, too.

If you're heading through Stawell on the way to Adelaide or Melbourne, it makes an easy lunch stop. They open early and close in the afternoon, so check the hours before you go.
