Pastry Paradise: The Best Bakeries in Hobart
Masters in creating flaked croissants, scallop pies, delectable doughnuts and freshly baked sourdough, these are the best bakeries in Hobart.

Everybody needs a good gluten dealer in their life, and in Hobart you are spoiled for choice. If you’ve already feasted on brunch and are looking for something sweet (or savoury) to tide you over, we’ve got you covered. From golden croissants to legendary scallop pies, Hobart’s bakeries are a carb-lover’s dream.
Whether you’re chasing a 36-hour sourdough, a next-level doughnut, or the flakiest pastry in town, these spots deliver the goods. Think vol-au-vents at Six Russell, butter buns at Toni Brisco, and game-changing cruffins at Paradise Regained. Ready to eat your way through Hobart? Here’s where to find the most drool-worthy bakeries in Hobart.

Six Russell
The new Six Russell isn’t just another bakery—it’s a slow-fermented, fine-dining-fuelled revelation. A collaboration between the Tso family (Me Wah) and Kobi Ruzicka (Dier Makr, Lucinda), this Hobart hotspot churns out 36-hour sourdough loaves, golden croissants, and a McMuffin-levelled-up with fennel-spiked sausage, silky egg, and dill-caper sauce. Soon, it’ll evolve into a 40-seat bistro, slinging natural wines, mod-Oz plates, and three kinds of Martinis. With a full potato section (because, Tasmania), vol-au-vents, and abalone Rockefeller, Six Russell is rewriting the bakery-to-bistro playbook—one perfectly laminated pastry at a time.

Trouble Bakers
Trouble Bakers is a micro-bakery that’s all about top-tier sourdough and seriously good pastries. Their croissants are buttery perfection, the Portuguese tarts have just the right wobble, and the Paris-Brest? Next level. There’s always a gluten-free cake in the mix—maybe a blueberry cheesecake, maybe an espresso walnut. No storefront, no fuss—just catch them at Salamanca Market and Farm Gate Market for the good stuff.

Carb Diem
Carb Diem is the kind of Hobart micro-bakery that makes Sundays at Farm Gate Market worth rolling out of bed for.

They make rare market appearances, but when they do, it’s more than worth the wait.
Alongside their legendary focaccias, they also offer delectable treats like flaky blueberry custard morning buns and crispy waffles. Keep an eye on their socials for their next pop-up—you won’t want to miss it.

Specialising in handcrafted pies with locally sourced ingredients, their stall at the Farm Gate Market (every 1st and 3rd Sunday) is a must-visit. Sweet tooth? Don’t leave without a slice of their rich Mississippi mud pie, the tangy lemon curd pie, or the raspberry meringue pie—each one a perfect balance of indulgence and nostalgia. They also take special orders for pies and cakes, so keep them in mind for your next gathering.
Farm Gate Market

Toni Brisco Bun House

Paradise Regained
This home and garden store is one of Tasmania’s best-kept secrets, tucked out of the way in the little town of Glen Huon, about 45 minutes from Hobart.

Summer Kitchen
While not in Hobart itself, we’d be remiss not to mention this little baked goods paradise, just half hour south in the Huon Valley, that so many travel specifically to visit. In a back street flanked by mountains, you’ll find an impressive array of organic woodfired breads and wholegrain baked delights. Summer Kitchen’s pies are a specialty and a big local favourite. Feast your eyes on the lentil shepherd’s pie or indulge in a homity—a deliciously comforting mix of potato, leek, and sour cream. Pair it all with a bowl-sized cup of freshly brewed chai and one of their famous cream buns or buttery almond croissants. This is baked goods heaven at its finest, just a short drive outside of Hobart.
21 Marguerite Street, Ranelagh

Pigeon Whole Bakers
The queues speak for themselves at this Hobart institution. No matter what you choose to order at Pigeon Whole Bakers, you can’t go wrong, whether it’s a jalapeno and spring onion cream cheese bagel, a croissant as buttery and flaky as they come or even a simple loaf of their quality sourdough. Accompanied with fantastic coffee it’s the perfect kickstart to the day, with a handy location in the centre of the city.
32 Argyle Street, Hobart

Queens
If a croissant warm from the oven is your thing, then best hightail it to Queens Pastry on the edge of the CBD. Each day they share their daily bake times so that you can be ready to pounce as the baked delights emerge from the oven. Have yours filled with ham and cheese or relish a simple and buttery plain croissant. If a sweet craving is beckoning, these folk are also known for their array of delectable donuts.

Daci & Daci
This stalwart on the Hobart scene has been keeping Taswegians well-fed since 2011. Daci & Daci are as close as you’ll find to a French patisserie in Hobart, with a solid offering of finely crafted pastries and cakes alongside sit down breakfast and lunch options. Their original location is nestled nice and close to the Salamanca markets, allowing for an essential post-market cake stop. Duck out to either of their newer stores in the burbs for an elegant sit-down affair.

Filled with the likes of vanilla custard and salted hazelnuts, lemon curd, dark chocolate and Earl Grey ganache, each of these delicious baked bundles are the result of 48 hours of ferment time, love and labour. It’s one of the best bakeries in Hobart for some serious sweet-toothed fun.

This little takeaway nook is loved by locals and visitors alike, with the offerings as beautiful as they are delicious. Savoury and sweet fiends are happy campers at Little Missy Patisserie, where local produce, including free-range eggs, are whipped into the likes of lemon curd creams and caramel, and strawberry mille feuille.

This is one of the best bakeries in Hobart for wholesome, delicious baked treats the whole family can enjoy.
151 Argyle Street, Hobart

Sunbear
This former teddy bear shop was received with open arms by Hobart locals and visitors alike when it opened in 2019. With cosy interiors and some of the nicest staff in the business, you’ll be jostling for a seat at Sunbear, and for good reason.
Aside from a crazy good breakfast and brunch menu, the house-made cakes are next level and highlight the best in-season goodies — think apricot frangipane tart or peach, polenta and lemon upside down cake.
