This delightful treasure of a bakery & café is located right in the heart of Marietta Square. I was invited by a friend to join her for a late breakfast. Open the door & you're greeted by an Australian "G'Day Mate" or old fashioned "Hey ya'll!".
The menu is up on the wall behind the main counter to take a gander over while trying to decide exactly what you're hungry for (hint: everything!). There are plenty of traditional "____ pies" (insert meat, egg, cheese, whatever you like) available & made fresh daily. For those who have NEVER seen one, it looks a bit like a Pizza Hut pizza's 4 in 1 pizza. (I'm sure Pizza Hut took the idea! LOL).
Pick from some of the most delicious Aussie pies or other delightful desserts, pastries or lunch specials. I've been told that Vegemite is an "acquired" taste & am too chicken to try it. I enjoyed a delicious egg, mushroom, ham & onion Aussie pie. The server asked if I'd like some extra fresh cheese on mine; it tasted fantastic!
While you're eating, enjoy the Australian theme decor. It's fun to look at all of the Aussie artwork, photos & knick-knacks.
Kids are welcome too!
I'll be back to try the many different menu items like the "Croc Hunter's Special" & an Outback Pepper jack Chicken pie.
If you go to their web page, look for the Kids' Korner. Print out one of the Australian animal coloring pages & have your child color it. Visit the Australian Bakery Cafe & show them the artwork. They'll give your child a free Aussie Cookie.
