About Drummoynes' Bakehouse Cafe

A stalwart on Lyons Road for three decades, this neighbourhood bakehouse delivers honest, buttery comfort without the modern café fuss. Behind the timber counter and warm glass cases, golden pastry takes centre stage. Locals drop in for flaky beef and potato-topped pies drenched in rich gravy and mushy peas, or grab a chicken bourguignon on the go. Mornings move quickly with brisk espresso and crisp custard tarts, while celebration tables lean on light strawberry sponge cakes and traditional baked ricotta.

  • Pies with peas and gravy: Flaky house-baked pastries stuffed with savory meats, served classic style with rich gravy and peas.
  • Italian cakes and catering: Custom celebration cakes, light sponge layers, and baked ricotta crafted for milestone events and morning teas.
  • Neighbourhood routine: A welcoming Lyons Road counter serving regulars quick espresso and fresh morning pastries since 1995.

    Even on busy mornings or dreary days, the bakery provides a comforting, welcoming refuge filled with the aroma of freshly baked goods.

    Even with the rain gently falling all day, this café was a warm little pocket of comfort. Friendly staff, fresh pastries, and a brekkie that felt like sunshine.

  • Custard Horn

    The custard horn was great too, it was more of a mix between custard and cream rather than just custard which was really nice as it did not spill out from the bottom opening.

Before you head over

Practical advice on parking, ordering favourites, and celebration cakes

  • Plan Ahead for Local Parking

    Street parking directly along Lyons Road can be tight and difficult to find during peak periods, so consider leaving a few extra minutes to park on adjacent streets.

  • Order Savoury Pies with Peas and Gravy

    When selecting from the hot savoury pie display, order classic options like the potato top or chicken pie served topped with peas and rich gravy on a plate.

  • Pre-Order Milestone Celebration Cakes

    If you need birthday or milestone cakes, coordinating in advance—via phone or their online portal—ensures seamless custom options like light sponge or mud cakes.
