The pasty is unbelievably flaky and SO good. They make it themselves. Seriously good pies! And friendly servers too. Nowhere to sit, but there are plenty of benches around. Lots of pie places in Cronulla, but we can see why this made the top 10 list!!

The best bakery in Sydney! Although there are plenty of bakeries much closer to my home I prefer to…read moremake the trip to Groundbake as the food is so delicious. I particularly love their lamb sausage roll. Quality ingredients, clean, and the staff are lovely. Also love the caramel slice. Packed with flavour and the proportion of caramel to chocolate and biscuit is perfect. Please keep up the good work!

At the northern entrance to the Cronulla open-air shopping mall, you will find the Cronulla…read moreBakehouse. This is an ordinary bakery by most people's standards, but a lack of healthy lunch options and the queues of people out the door piqued my interest. The reason for the queue was cheap Vietnamese pork rolls. A standard option in places like Marrickville and Campsie, this Vietnamese Bakery in Cronulla is doing a roaring trade in the simple sandwich. The price and portion size are the two outstanding factors, just $5 for a pork and salad roll or chicken and salad roll. The pork is an acquired taste, with three types of processed pork meat, salad including shallot and coriander, and sauce including liver paste and sweet chilli sauce. It is quite tasty, but you need to be prepared for it! The chicken salad roll is for the faint hearted, and there is nothing better than fresh ingredients on a fresh bread roll. The final recommendation comes from the local cops lining up to get lunch. Wherever the cops are eating, you can be sure that the food is good.

It seemed a little out of place but gave the Banh Mi a go!! It wasn't bad. A little westernised but…read morestill tasty. The only thing I'd like changed is the price tag.. I understand that margins need to be made given the potential high rent due to location.. but maaaaaan $5 or $6 min. for yeast, some salad and slices of meat... Come on. But I guess these are the times. I remember when bread rolls like these only costed $2. and they were known as the $2 Vietnamese rolls. Anyway I digress... the roll could b more crunchy.. everything else was good.

Have been a customer here for 20 years. Bakery side is not bad but expensive. Used to have the best…read morepies and hot chips in the Shire but these are now garbage- especially the hot chips which are always overcooked, oily and served with a sour-attitude. The rude and sour-faced staff are the biggest disappointment. They consistently treat people like they are doing them a huge favour taking their order. Have continued to try and support this local business but cant keep paying top dollar for absolute junk served with a side of misery guts- not to mention the roaches roaming around the back kitchen. If you want a snack- head to the 7-Eleven or noshis next door- dont waste your time here.

I have never actually been to this patisserie. What am I doing here?…read moreI am here telling you about the AMAZING quality of their baked goods *cue mouthwatering* I am spoilt. So when friends come visit, they know what to bring. What to bring = Good baked goods. The cakes, macarons, pies, tarts, EVERYTHING at Patisserie New York is even better than that. I promise. Look at my photos, it should give a hint! Their chocolate mud cake. I know, boring choice in the face of rhubarb crumbles in all sizes, and miniature fruit tarts bursting with the rainbow! But it is the best chocolate mud cake that I have ever eaten! Soft, and moist, and so fresh! I feel like the chocolate god would be proud! My other favourite from their bakery is their red velvet cupcake. People know I hate cupcakes from stores because besides the frosting, they never have much going for them. The red velvet cupcake here feels like you are drowning in soft, velvety goodness. It is tasty, and just sweet enough to compliment the strong frosting! I would keep writing but there is too much to say! So save me the trouble, do yourself a favour, and please, go visit the incredible bakery!

Before you get over excited, these desserts are not from New York. But then again, with cakes like…read morethese, who really cares? This is one of the best cake shops I've ever been to. Located in the Sutherland Shire's suburb of Caringbah, Patisserie New York sells some of the best pastries Sydney has to offer, in particular their cakes. Among my personal favourites; the Belgian White Chocolate Mud, a white chocolate sponge layered with white chocolate ganache and topped with hand shaven chocolate curls - all of course made with fine Belgian chocolate. For the impeccable quality and exquisite taste, the $40 used for this baby is money I like to call well-spent. But if amazing white chocolate mud cake isn't your thing, another favourite - the double baked blueberry cheesecake just might be. And if you're still not satisfied, the patisserie offers a wide variety of cakes and desserts suitable for any occasion including tarts, slices, macarons, cupcakes, muffins, sweet breads and more to suit anyone's sugar fix needs.
