An essential guide to the ACT’s best bakeries Whether you’re a sweet tooth, a savoury person, or a lover of all food, you’ll surely admit that there’s nothing quite like wandering into a quality local bakery to drool over sumptuous sourdoughs, perfectly baked pastries or mouthwatering pies. Here’s where you can find some of the best bakeries in town to satisfy any craving.
THREE MILLS BAKERY Three Mills Bakery has grown from a small modest basement to selling their delicious wares in nearly 40 locations across the ACT, forging themselves as one of the best and most well-known bakeries in the capital. This local bread maker uses quality local ingredients, house-milled flour and traditional long fermentation techniques to create perfect loaves of hand-formed sourdough and decadent laminated pastries. On their menu, you can expect to find an impressive selection of sourdough like cracked rye and ancient grain, as well as potato and basil cream tarts, crunchy sourdough bread chips, decadent pork chilli and confit garlic sausage rolls, and family-sized butter puff pastry pies with exquisite flavours such as slow-cooked beef bourguignon, and chicken, leek and riesling. If one treat isn’t enough, you can order a customisable family box filled with a range of sweet and savoury creations, or opt for a classic brunch box filled with their house-made baker’s granola, sourdough, orange and raisin loaf, croissants and sausage rolls. If that doesn’t make your mouth water, then nothing will! Photography by Monika Grabkowska
