About Yarra Flats Baking Co.

Yarra Glen locals know Yarra Flats Baking Co. as a relaxed bakery with a bit of a hidden address, found in the shopping centre by the IGA. It's the sort of place where pies, rolls and a decent sit-down feed all sit side by side.

Sourdough is a big part of the story, along with pies that people keep mentioning. Sausage rolls, cornish pasties and focaccia turn up in conversation too, and the chilli pie and the almond croissant are worth trying. Fresh-from-the-oven baking is the aim, and the coffee, rolls and toasties round out an easy lunch. You can dine in or take away, and there is outdoor seating if the weather is kind. Catering is also on offer.

The vibe is friendly and low-key, with staff who get kind words. Wine-tour visitors and locals drop in regularly. The odd person has had a bad run with the coffee or a custard tart, and rolls can sell out by lunchtime, so going a bit earlier helps.

Parking is free, there is a wheelchair-accessible entrance and car park, and cards and mobile payments are accepted. It's open every day of the week, but check the hours before you head in.

“They have won prises before for their Ciabattas. We had the "Tradie Toastie" basically a ciabatta with the works in it...”

Staff

“My Hot Roast Beef Roll with Gravy and slaw was delicious, and followed by a yummy Custard Tart… the young ladies who work here are very efficient and friendly, always have a smile to greet me, and I always come here when I am in the Yarra Valley doing a wine Tour.”

Pastries

“I had a fresh long platted roll filled with chicken and egg and it was awesome. My daughter had a meat and mushroom Pie and wife a tasty fresh baked vegetable pastie. Great service by the ladies and a comfortable outdoor area to eat our lunch in the sun.”
