About Tivoli Road Bakery

Tivoli Road Bakery delivers serious scratch-baked viennoiserie and hearty savouries straight from an open prep kitchen in South Yarra. Morning regulars gravitate to the signature crème brûlée pastry—smooth custard cream encased beneath a thin, torched caramel crust. From mid-morning, attention shifts to the hot counter for braised beef ragu pies and oversized pork sausage rolls. Counter stools catch the hum of the grinder as baristas pull rich espresso with bright acidity and lingering chocolate notes, roundly balanced alongside a strawberry almond frangipane danish.

  • Signature Crème Brûlée Pastry: Soft pastry filled with cool custard cream beneath a crisp, torched caramelized sugar cap.
  • Gourmet Hot Savouries: Generous, scratch-baked lunch options like braised beef ragu pies and oversized pork, sage, and garlic rolls served fresh from mid-morning.
  • Specialty Coffee: Carefully pulled espresso shots showing bright acidity and lingering cocoa notes.

  • Signature Torched Crème Brûlée Pastry

    A signature custard-filled pastry finished with a crisp, lightly torched caramelised sugar crust that creates a memorable culinary highlight.

    This is the best French pastry I've tasted outside of France, surpassing the quality of other overhyped pastry shops in Melbourne

    The strawberry danish had a layer of almond frangipane topped with creme patisserie and the fresh strawberries were nice and sweet.

Before you head over

Practical advice on savoury baking schedules, counter ordering, and portions

  • Time Your Visit for Hot Savouries

    Hot savoury items such as pies and sausage rolls are not available early in the morning and only come out from 9:30am onwards.

  • Inquire at the Counter for Prices

    The counter does not display a fixed price menu, so ask staff if you need details or pricing across the wide range of pastries.

  • Plan Portion Sizes for Generous Rolls

    Sausage rolls are notably massive and can easily feed two people, making them easy to share if you also want room for sweet pastries.
