About Midside Bakery

Crunchy baguettes packed with crackling roast pork and vibrant fillings make Midside Bakery a standout Bridge Road lunch stop. Richmond locals head here for warm rolls loaded with crisp meat, sweet-sour sauce, and fresh herbs—or specialty picks like smoky BBQ pork skewers and bò lá lốt. Sidewalk tables offer space to take in the street over an iced cà phê sữa đá or rich Vietnamese salted coffee.

  • Specialty Fillings: Baguettes come layered with crackling roast pork or rarer options like grilled skewers, bò lá lốt, and marinated tofu.
  • Salted Viet Coffee: Traditional Vietnamese coffee and iced salted brews provide an easy pairing with fresh rolls at sidewalk tables.

Why Choose Midside Bakery

Why locals and visitors choose Midside Bakery for fresh banh mi and specialty Vietnamese fare.

  • Crispy Crackling Roast Pork Rolls

    Crisp, warm rolls are packed with crackling roast pork, balanced savoury sauces, and fresh toppings.

    The banh mi with crackling is utterly delicious. Superb meat. Great crackling. Outstanding sauce.

  • Specialty Fillings & Rare Skewers

    In addition to traditional cuts, the kitchen prepares specialty fillings like grilled skewers, marinated tofu, and bò lá lốt.

    my favourite is the bbq pork skewer. Crackling roast pork also good, but pork skewer is rarely seen in other stores and is excellent here.

  • A True Richmond Hidden Gem

    Customers consistently describe the bakery as an exceptional local secret that rewards repeated visits with memorable flavours.

    This place is a hidden gem, I’m surprised it doesn’t have queues out the door with how yum the food is.

  • Balanced Flavour In Every Bite

    Every roll delivers high-impact, balanced flavour combinations that turn quick meals into craved rituals.

    Roll was warm, lots of crispy pork and crunchy veggies. Sauce was lovely and sweet sour - a perfect balance.

  • Convenient Bridge Road Takeaway

    Positioned conveniently on Bridge Road, it provides an ideal takeaway stop during daily errands, workdays, or en route to the MCG.

    conveniently located a few tram stops away from flinders street station and the MCG, so it’s definitely worth giving a go before a footy match

  • Reliable Routine Lunch Stop

    Reliable portions, fast-moving service, and easy local access make it a seamless neighbourhood fixture before heading home.

    After my grocery shopping, me and my partner often come to this place before we head home. This is my go-to banh mi!

  • Roast Pork Banh Mi

    hands down the best roast pork I have. The sauce is on point and the fat on the roast pork is enough so it does not taste too greasy.

Before you head over

Practical advice on parking, plant-based choices, and drink pairings for your visit to Midside Bakery.

  • Park Behind the Shop

    Street parking directly on Bridge Road can be tight; look for parking behind the shop or near the nearby McDonald's for an easier arrival.

  • Explore Vegan and Match-Day Options

    If you prefer plant-based dining or are visiting before an MCG match, the marinated tofu banh mi provides a dedicated vegan-friendly option.

  • Pair Rolls with Specialty Coffee

    Pair your banh mi with Vietnamese regional drinks like salted coffee or iced Cà Phê Sữa Đá alongside outdoor seating.
