Gordon St Bakery

Very yum!!! Would give 5 stars if the plain croissant was warm. Almond was super fresh though 5 stars for that

I am an absolute almond croissant fiend and this place has the BEST almond croissants. I can't describe to you how buttery, crisp, flakey their croissant is. The filling is generous and tastes so goooood, you can't go wrong

My go to is Lune but since moving to the west, been searching for a worthy alternative in the neighbourhood. This bakery is the best, love the buttery and flaky croissants.

Fresh bread that appears (and tastes) like it was baked daily. We tried the olive bread loaf, cinnamon roll, and baguette. Not too many other items on the menu, but would return to try some of the others after our first go (eg choc crossaint looked pretty good)! Gets quite popular and packed inside as it is a small bakery, so get in early so you won't miss out. Not opened every day/regular business hours, worth checking before you decide to head there. Streets can also get quite busy, and parking is scarce due to the Western Health/Footscray Hospital being across the road.

Wow!!Great bread. Seriously great.Ordered a loaf of sour dough, a baguette, croissants and various other French pastries to go. They were all awesome. Went back the next day at 12:45pm and the baker said (with a French accent) “no no, so sorry, we sold out of bread at 11:30am today”!!French accent is so hot. I smiled and left with more croissants.

Overall: 5/5BEST ALMOND CROISSANT EVER. IN MELBOURNE. Better than your infamous TV-broadcasted ones.I am a sucker for almond croissants, whether it’s filled with frangipane or custard creme with other exciting elements such as yuzu or some lemon zing. Top pastry shops or patisseries definitely raise the benchmark at a competitively difficult level, but this tiny bakery on Gordon St surpass it with such ease. You can really see how much fun the bakers have when making the creamy filling in the almond croissants as well as their beautiful arrangement of sourdough breads. They serve a small variety of baked goods and are only open Thursdays-Sundays, but they do their best in showcasing their passion in patisseries.Almond croissant (5/5):Lune have a citrusy flavour and double-baked croissant exterior, and Bakemono have the most amazing light yet creamy yuzu filling with their well-toasted almonds. With that in mind, Gordon St has the texture of that double-baked flakiness and perfectly-toasted almond croissants. Most importantly, the creamiest frangipane ever to exist that I still dream about - not too sweet with enough kick. Generous filling compared to other bakeries. Make sure to lick that frangipane good because you’ll be on the ground dying from how good it is and how bad it’ll be if it went to waste.Cheese stick (4/5):When you thought the flakiness from the almond croissant is enough, this was just beyond flaky. Idk but I found this a bit too excessive. All that flake falls off from the bread and you lose about 1/5 of your pastry. Other than that, omg so buttery and rich in that cheese flavour. Flavour reminds me of your Baker’s Delight cheese breads in terms of saltiness. Worth a try!Overall, very cheap for stealing the spot for my favourite food in the entire universe. Service is very streamlined and fast, especially when their breads and pastries are made and brought to the display window in front of you.Will be seeing me there more often and can’t wait to try their other pastries and breads. Heard their olive sourdough is amazing!Food: 5Value: 5Ambience: 5Service: 4

I come here every weekend! Gordon Street Bakery is always 10/10. My favourite is the almond croissant, usually it is still a bit warm when I eat it, the filling is to die for. The baguettes are also incredible, I usually buy it with the intention of making sandwiches but end up ripping bits off and eating the bread by itself because it is so tasty.

We bought almond croissant, almond chocolate croissant, galette, and olive sourdough.I'm not a sweet food person but even I could tell the croissants and galette are really good. It's slightly too sweet for my palate, but not overly sweet. The pastry though, it's amazing. Flakey, buttery, and light.The highlight of my day is the olive bread. Very flavourful just by itself. I prepared a dipping of olive oil with garlic. Must try!There's no sitting in the area, only take aways.Edit: bought cheese sticks the next day. Yum yum!

One of the most popular bakery in the west. We were introduced and recommended by my friend (thanks a Harry :D). He bought some for us to try out. My favorite is definitely the almond croissant. Very flaky and tasty. The cheesy vegemite is other's favourite. I dont eat vegemite so not a big fan but others said that they liked it a lots, not strong taste of vegemite. Cinnamon roll and pain au chocolate were ok too.Will be back to try their other pastries and maybe the coffee even my friend said it is just so so.Their pastries are very popular and can run out quicky so come early to grab some.
