The service was good, the seats comfortable, all very relaxing as I sat inside looking out at a large new raised deck, alfresco area, raining today but nice on a fine day.

I usually get a coffee (which of course comes with a wee biscuit), a toasted ham and cheese croissant (sometimes two), and a sweet somethin - often a custard tart or a slice of apricot or blueberry pie. If I've got time to sit down, the pie comes with fresh cream. The staff aren't always the friendliest bunch, but it doesn't bother me much. They're quick and professional at what they do. The cafe is always clean, although it is a little dark but it's a warm darkness, like the inside of a hug. The car park is another massive positive for this place (car parking in Mt Barker is an ongoing battle) it's big and there's plenty of turning room. I'm always able to get a park. A bakery that's like a professional dark hug, with a big car park. What's not to like?

If you consider your self a pie gastronome this is the place, the range of fresh baked choices are excellent, through to a cabinet displaying mouth watering cakes. Lunch time is busy, but we have found the staff very helpful and friendly. There is a good range of seating options inside and outside along the foot path. The coffee is nice and smooth with a pleasant lingering after taste. News papers are provided for your leisure as you relax over a pleasant lunch.

If you like baked goods, do yourself a favour, go for a quick drive up the freeway, and you won't look back

Fortunately, there is one place that fully rocks it old school! The aptly named 'German Cake Shop' is a wonderful little oasis that is mostly frequented by older patrons who need a rest from the Main Street drag. As my fellow Yelper Brad J has said, the Beestings are Bee-Tastic! It is definately worth taking a break from the candle shops and random crazy clothes places and grabbing a nice relaxing cup of java juice and getting your FAT on with a Beesting. Booyah!

A few visits here and every person I worked with agreed 'this is the best bakery we've ever been to.' My review will not do the place justice and my only gripe is that they seem to run out of food early. I travel to Victoria a bit, and so do many friends, and we're often left wanting when visiting. The pies here are incredible, and there's what 20+ flavours? Many of which you'll only find in grandma's secret cook books. Some of the one's I've tried: Lamb and mint, Beef and stout, Chicken, Chicken Korma, Cheese Cransky, Chilli Cransky, Vegetarian quiche. I also love how the soft drinks feature more than just a Coke or Pepsi range. Portello, Kola Beer and Creamy Soda are some of my favourites. The pies are so filling, and the chucks of meat within are huge! This place will make the Port Elliot Bakery taste like bin juice in comparison.
