Ashgrove mornings center on Banneton’s blistered sourdough loaves and flaky viennoiserie fresh from the bakehouse. Queues reliably trail onto the footpath for vanilla cream cronuts, chocolate croissants, and almond pretzels, though the baristas keep tickets moving without a stall. Cyclists pulling off the Breakfast Creek path settle in next to locals spreading across the rustic indoor hall and dog-friendly outdoor awning. The savoury counter pulls its own weight—especially the flaky pork and fennel sausage roll, served warm with tomato relish.
- Artisan Breads & Pastries: Loaves boast a light, bouncy crumb and blistered crust, backed by vanilla cream cronuts, chocolate croissants, and sweet almond pretzels.
- Cult Savoury Lineup: Renowned for flaky pork and fennel sausage rolls and hefty chicken and pesto sandwiches that draw dedicated repeat crowds.
- Dine-In Space & Covered Patio: Spacious, uncrowded indoor dining matches covered, dog-friendly outdoor seats beneath the street awning.
- Trail Stop & Side-Street Parking: A natural stop off the Breakfast Creek bikeway; parking on nearby side streets avoids main-road delays during morning peaks.

J Karpierz Handcrafted Viennoiserie & Savoury Rolls
Patrons can count on a wide counter spread of freshly baked French morning viennoiserie and seasoned pork and fennel pastries daily.
My pork and fennel sausage roll was excellent, as was my chocolate croissant.
David M. Generous Indoor Dining Space
The indoor dining hall offers a generous rustic layout where guests can settle in comfortably without feeling squeezed against neighboring tables.
The amount of space was a welcome site, not cramped 1ft. away from the next person like most other dine-in spots.
Wesley D. Dog-Friendly Outdoor Setting
Guests looking to dine at a relaxed pace with their pets can take advantage of the bakery's welcoming sheltered outdoor seating.
Love the vibe of the Ashgrove store and being able to sit outside with our dog!

Zeglar “Zeg” Fergus Post-Ride Cyclist Destination
Northside riders tackle demanding elevation along Mt. Nebo before converging on Banneton as their designated coffee and pastry recovery station.
after going up and down Mt. Nebo there is nothing like an excellent coffee and a perfect croissant

Before you head over
Practical planning tips for parking, morning queues, and seating. Check their website to plan your visit.
Park Along Nearby Side Streets
Dedicated parking directly along Waterworks Road is tight and fills up rapidly during peak morning rushes. Save time by parking along adjacent side streets and walking in.
Arrive Early for the Best Loaf Selection
Popular sourdough loaves, fruit breads, and specialty pastries sell out quickly. Morning queues move swiftly through attentive staff, but an early arrival guarantees full selection.
Head Indoors for a Quieter Sit-Down Experience
Outdoor covered seating is dog-friendly and convenient for trail cyclists, but borders active traffic. Head into the rustic indoor dining room if you prefer a quieter, spacious sit-down meal. Check the bakery's website to review daily offerings and plan your visit.
