About Little Kiwi Bakehouse

Locals cross town for honest, two-handed Kiwi pies stuffed with tender steak chunks and crisp pastry. Thursday through Sunday, Nerang's counter lines churn quickly through trays of smoked fish, mince and cheese, and pepper steak. Sweet tooths grab ginger crunch, lolly cake, and Afghan biscuits—or wash down lunch under the sheltered veranda with a cold can of L&P.

  • Chunky Fillings: Deeply filled savory bakes packed with whole cuts of tender meat rather than ground mince.
  • Kiwi Bakery Staples: A dedicated lineup of New Zealand classics, from smoked fish and cheese rolls to ginger crunch and L&P.
  • Four-Day Service: Baking runs Thursday through Sunday, with fast-moving queues and outdoor veranda seating.

Why Little Kiwi Bakehouse Stands Apart

Why pie lovers and expat Kiwis make the trip to Nerang for Little Kiwi Bakehouse.

  • Packed with Tender, Chunky Fillings

    Pies are generously constructed with substantial, tender steak cuts and distinct ingredients rather than slurry mince.

    it was chock full of big juicy chunks of succulent steak!

  • Crisp, Flaky Handheld Pastry

    Bakes feature crisp, sturdy pastry cases that hold up neatly to weighty fillings without collapsing or turning soggy.

    Doesn’t fall apart as you hold and eat the pie. Pastry was flaky and cooked perfectly.

  • Authentic Kiwi Bakery Classics

    The counter delivers genuine Aotearoa culinary staples, from smoked fish pies to classic Afghan biscuits and L&P.

    Was it a taste of home (Aotearoa)? YES. Was it worth the hype? YES.

  • Nostalgic Heritage Slices and Sweets

    Traditional sweet counter baking replicates beloved regional heritage treats like ginger crunch and lolly cake.

    Also the ginger crunch was delightfully nostalgic, I'd place a bet that its the Edmonds cookbook recipe

  • Four-Day Dedicated Destination Hours

    The focused Thursday-to-Sunday opening window turns weekend runs and market stops into high-anticipation visits.

    Finally got the chance to check out Little Kiwi Bakehouse :p I was lucky it lined up with my day off because they’re usually closed when I’m free.

  • Sheltered Veranda for Casual Lunch Stops

    Fast-moving queues and outdoor veranda seating make quick lunch runs and road trip detours easy.

    Also love the fact that they now have their own sheltered veranda so you can also dine in.

  • Steak and Cheese Pie

    My hubs had a steak and cheese pie and it was oozing cheese and full of beautiful tender steak pieces and a lot of them.

  • Steak, Jalapeño and Cheese Pie

    Steak jalapeño and cheese 10/10 straight outa the oven was absolutely breathtaking.

  • Mince and Cheese Pie

    Was it a taste of home (Aotearoa)? YES. Was it worth the hype? YES. Yummy pies! Pastry was light, crispy and cooked all around. Filling was chocka with mince and so tasty

Before you head over

Key timing and visit tips for enjoying Little Kiwi Bakehouse

  • Plan for Thursday–Sunday Hours

    The bakery operates strictly four days a week, Thursday through Sunday. Plan your trip accordingly to avoid finding the doors closed during the early week.

  • Beat the Lunch and Weekend Rush

    Crowds and lines frequently form around lunchtime and on Saturdays. Service moves fast, but arriving slightly ahead of the midday rush helps beat the queue.

  • Prepare for Limited On-Site Seating

    Seating on the covered veranda is limited during peak rushes, so be ready to grab takeaway or eat casually outside if tables are occupied.
