Esk Bakery & Cafe — Restaurant in Queensland

A Gem Revived in Esk!

The recent change in ownership at our local bakery has truly been a breath of fresh air for the community. The new team has done an above-outstanding job of not only revitalizing the bakery but also bringing a whole new energy to Esk.

The range on offer is simply incredible—something we haven’t been used to here. From fresh, beautifully crafted pastries and bread to innovative and mouthwatering treats, there’s something for everyone. Their commitment to quality and variety is evident in every bite, and it’s clear that they’re passionate about what they do.

It’s heartwarming to see the bakery bustling with happy customers, both locals and visitors. The new owners have created a space that’s welcoming and vibrant, breathing life back into the area and giving people yet another reason to stop by Esk.

This morning we went to the bakery to get a mushroom pie. I couldn't get a mushroom pie as they didn't have one & this was not near lunchtime. I don't like curries ect, so I got stuck with a sausage roll. Knowing this won't fill me," I asked how much for a hamburger"? $10.20 she answered.

Also the itemised boards on the walls had no prices on...

We ordered a burger and chips which took a very long time to come out and when it did it was the most grossly made burger, buns not toasted and everything slapped together so badly we didn’t even touch it but threw it in the bin suspecting she probably spat in it out the back out of sight where it was made. It seems that if you’re a local you get treated somewhat nicely but as a happy, polite family traveling through, the customer service is horrendous. The treatment we were served was very upsetting for us and our children. Not a great experience at all. The worst spent $46 on our trip so far, it’s poor service like this that travelers don’t stop to spend money in small towns, I know we will be very...
