Baguette Studios

This venue is one of Good Food’s 100 Essential Melbourne Cafes and Bakeries of 2026.

You get the feeling that every detail matters at Baguette Studios. Bread and pastries sit behind glass like art installations, and there’s poise in every sandwich, loaf or snack. Baguettes brim with smoked salmon and cream cheese, or house-cured rare-breed ham with gruyere and pickle. The croissants are deliberately soft, built on a milk poolish starter that leans all-in on flavour rather than flakiness.

Must order: The Monte Cristo sandwich ($23), crumbed, deep-fried and showered with icing sugar, then served with house-made blueberry compote and a tiny jug of maple syrup.
