A Guide to the Best Bakeries in Brisbane
"Initially opening in Teneriffe in 2012, La Macelleria is the real Italian deal!. The owners, both called Matteo (not kidding) are committed to crafting authentic, Bologna-style gelato, offering classic Italian flavours like fior di latte, crema Bologna, and new favourites like raspberry cheesecake. With four venues (Teneriffe, West End, King Street and Coorparoo) they’re never too far away–especially on a hot day."
"Sitting a street away from Brisbane River in Teneriffe, La Macelleria Gelateria is the closest taste of traditional Italian gelato in Queensland. Both owners named Matteo, learnt their gelato making skills in Bologna, Italy – the homeland of gelato. Since 2012, La Macelleria Gelateria has only used natural ingredients to make their 20-flavour range of gelato daily."
"Cake and ice-cream are absolute necessities in time of need and in time of play and La Macelleria Gelateria has Brisbane covered during the coronavirus chaos. You can now order from Uber Eats and Deliveroo your go-to flavour of gelato, sorbet, shakes and cakes. Explore their menu and go on and treat yourself!"
"The Pancake Manor is housed in a church building, formerly St Luke’s Cathedral, that was built in 1904. This detailed brick building with its magnificent arches and roof and stained glass windows make it a fun and quirky setting for a pancake restaurant. The Pancake Manor is open 24 hours a day and serves both sweet and savoury food, with a dedicated children’s menu to please the littlies."
"Pancake cravings always seem to hit after midnight and the pancake Manor has every option under the sun to satisfy the quintessential late-night food craving. Located conveniently in the Brisbane CBD in what was previously a church building, the restaurant offers the perfect mix of contemporary vibes and old school charm. They also offer gluten-free pancakes."
"An oldie but a goodie, The Pancake Manor has been serving up fun pancake treats – both sweet and savoury – since us parents were wee tackers. And they’re still magnificent. They’ve got a zillion different variations on the simple pancake – plus they cater for gluten-free and vegan requirements."
"You will definitely want to taste some of this multi-award winning gelato. With over 40 ever-evolving hand-crafted flavours, you will be hard pressed to choose just one. Perhaps you’ll opt for one of Milani’s amazing sundae creations such as Death by Chocolate or Tiramisu Delight."
"Go there after dinner and you will be lucky to find a table – find yourself in this situation however, and you can always get a takehome tub."
"Milano Gelateria is a sweet addition to Stones Corner serving award-winning gelato and sorbet from a tiny shopfront on Logan Road."

It feels like every day of the week, there is somewhere new to discover, from pop-up markets to twilight markets, local farmers’ markets and food trucks. We recommend the Brisbane City Markets, the Brisbane Powerhouse Markets and the Collective Markets on the South Bank."
"It could only be KushiMaru throwing epic hot grilled skewers on the flame. In a prime spot in the heart of Brisbane, this culinary gem serves traditional Japanese dishes within a relaxed but fun atmosphere with little Maneki-neko (Japanese lucky cats) waving on. Slide into a booth, pop up on a bar stool (great for a quick bite for one at lunchtime) or grab a table with a live view into the open kitchen."
"Having displayed innovative pieces of art from the three windows of her gallery on Brunswick Street for eighteen years, Jan Murphy has solidly established herself as one of the leading names on the city’s art scene.
