Yallingup Woodfired Bakery — Restaurant in Western Australia

We went out on a detour to get here, but boy was it worth it. Friendly "baker" blokes would greet you with a smile and give you the run down of whats available and would even take the time to explain to the details of their produce. Come at the right times of the day and they'll tell you to hang around a for a few minutes so that they can pull out the freshest bread for you - hot off the rack.

Thankyou so much I gifted the triangle loaf of rye called the rock to a rye...

As you approach the bakery, you can smell the woodsmoke, an aroma that is replaced by the irresistible smell of fresh baked bread as you wander past the lavender to the counter. We love this bakery for the fact they use biodynamic flours, we come back each time because of the amazing quality of the bread itself. We generally favour the denser rye styles but cannot resist the fruit loaf, which is choc full of figs and sultanas and spices. It also toasts beautifully with a really light crust that is super crispy (slathering with butter is mandatory).
