Bourkies Bakehouse — Restaurant in Woodend

On Tuesday the 11th January we were on a return run from our holiday in portland Victoria too drive past a fatal road crash near the township of Woodend...once inside the bakery we were close followed by female customer and her 10 year old son clearly shaken up and upset with what we all seen only to discover she was infact the first person on the scene of the road fatality .... we were of course being supportive of this intertidal lady but was very delighted in the support the team at buries bakery as they were simply amazing in true heartfelt care and support even donating an early lunch for that poor lady that we meet that day ...we only hope this is seen and taken on board by so many others in this very crazy world we live in right now ....100 percent wounderfull caring staff here . And the meat pies and yummy deserts a big must for your travels through the region ...God bless the staff here on that horrible day ..we will be back 100 percent ..best bakery in...
