Harrietville Bakery — Restaurant in Victoria

A beautiful town with friendly locals and Swany and his wife are delightful. There is nothing in this bakery you won’t love. My husband raved about the Mexican and was super impressed. The star for sure is the Vanilla Slices, rated the best outside of Melbourne and would be worth the drive just for them! Apparently one of the master chefs holidays out here and he is always wanting to promote them….. Swany just wants to be low key and enjoy retirement!!!

So their award winning Vanilla Slice is made by another bakery and delivered.

Seriously waste of a 40km detour. I will avoid this...
