There is absolutely nothing sophisticated about the Bellevue Bakehouse. It is your basic…read moreneighbourhood bakery and it does the basics very well. Always busy in the mornings before school (Howick College is a short walk away) and on Saturdays when rugby is played on the sports field opposite. (Due to the appetite of teenage boys and rugby players for pies, I do not expect the Bellevue ever to go broke.) You can get a wide range of cold drinks, there's takeaway hot coffee, they've got a bread slicing machine so you can get the loaf of your choice in thin or thick slices, and if you want something simple and tasty like a mince and cheese pie, a white tank loaf or a lamington, they have got you covered. I recommend the twisted ham and cheese thingies.

Spent time at the neighbouring golfing range and found this gem of a place hiding behind a petrol…read morestation. Even standing outside staring through the window will make you drool. The Black Forest gateau is a favourite in my household. It is hand on heart, the best I've ever tasted. You know when you have to take a cake or some food over to a gathering or bbq or just a get together with friends/family, well you can just take a 9 inch of this gateau and it'll be a crowd pleaser. It's an easy birthday cake too. I also love the passionfruit torte and the sacher torte. Simply top notch deliciousness. They also have cheesecakes (love the strawberry) and cupcakes as well. I'm sure they have one that will satisfy all taste buds. Similar pricing to Eve's Pantry in New Lynn but this place tastes nicer. If only this place was in West Auckland but the commute is worth the money and time. If you want a good cake, give this place a go. You will not regret it.

The pies here are amazing. I love the chicken pie, it became the only one I would ever buy (back…read morebefore I was vegetarian, and if I lived closer I would probably fail at vegetarianism and still eat this pie all the time). It is pretty much the best chicken pie in the whole world, ever. But get in quick lest you miss out on your pie of choice, it's very busy here at lunch time. The site of the bakery, and the other shops adjacent to it, is more commonly known as Mobil Corner, even long after the Mobil was no longer there. It well-known among Bucklands Beachers and particularly among the high and intermediate school students (of which I was one, back in the day). It also has an excellent selection of sweet treats - all the usual tarts and slices and cookies. The caramel slice is another one of my regulars and Mobil Corner bakery does it well.

If you're after freshly baked bread, then Bakers Delights is your place to go to! Made fresh every…read moremorning, this bread is delicious. They have a variety of finger buns, dinner rolls, pull-a-parts, sweet and savoury buns, also bread loaves which you can request to be cut in either sandwich or toast slice. I personally am a sucker for the cape seed loaf, toast sliced; or the ham and mayo roll if I'm after something for just myself. Another one that's good for sharing is their cheese and bacon pull-a-part! Or if you're wanting something sweet then the apple custard scroll is definitely the way to go! Bakers Delight in Manukau is located in the South Point shopping mall on Great South Road. This is a perfect location as they also have a supermarket and butcher in the vicinity, making it a one stop shop for all your daily necessities.

I would go as far as saying my favourite purchased sandwich ever; the ham, the cheese, the mayo, the beetroot and everything else just complimented each other so well. It was certainly an unbeatable combination. At Richoux Patisserie you will find a large selection of sweet items and savoury items, both hot goods (pies and sausage rolls) and cold goods (filled rolls). It's no wonder Richoux Patisserie have won so many awards. Good on them for proudly displaying them in full view of everyone. They have obviously worked very hard to get to where they are today and after having had one of their sandwiches I can see they have. If you're after a quick bite on the run then I would recommend popping in here. There are so many options to choose from, there will be something here to satisfy everyone's taste buds.
