Elwood Patisserie Bakery

Love the cakes and the cheap prices. My favourite things to eat here are as follows: black forest cakes, chocolate eclairs, vanilla slices, sausage rolls and the chocolate croissants. They have a huge variety of things to eat here and everything is really yummy. I wouldn't dine here though, because there are pigeons everywhere.

Been here on more than one occasion and my problem is they have too many yummy things to choose from. Love their Chocolate Brownies and the fact they're open until 9pm :

Food: A huge selection of cakes and snacks! Our gingerbreads looked amazing, and although they tasted pretty good they were a bit too crumbly and dry. I was impressed that they used fresh tea leaves and the tea was high quality (I couldn't bring myself to try the coffee as I knew it wouldn't live up to the code black coffee available across the road).<br/ <br/ Atmosphere/service: Seating area and service aren't great, maybe we're spoilt with what we have nearby but it definitely felt more like an after thought than something they put much focus on I think they are more concerned with take away orders, which is a shame as they have a nice location but nothing persuaded me to go back. <br/ <br/ Price: the cost for two gingerbreads and two drinks was about $15. Given the tea was very good and the gingerbreads looked homemade I'd say this was pretty good value. <br/ <br/ Would I go back: it was nice for a change and it's on my way to the beach. I do want to try some of their other cakes. I'd probably order take out and carry on to the beach to be honest, I wouldn't be in a hurry to go back and sit in. Food is probably higher than a 3, but overall experience has lowered my rating as for this it sits below most local places in my opinion.<br/   <br/ <br/ Update: I have since been back, sampled some more cakes black forest cake and the orange cake which I ordered to take away. Much better experience as a take away bakery.

The best bakery in Melbourne!! Always packed on a weekend. The owners are lovely people and are often behind the counter. All the bread is amazing, highly recommend the dark rye never had anything like it elsewhere. Great sandwich bar, either ready made or made up with whatever you like Turkish bread with pesto is a great start. So many sweets to choose from the Nutella croissants are insane. Cakes made to order, and gorgeous ready made ones available too. Can't rates this place highly enough. An Elwood gem.

Honestly the best hand made sandwiches, all the bread is amazing and so fresh. Can't go past the nutella croissants sticky date cake!
