The Australian Bakery Cafe brings a slice of Aussie culture to Marietta Square, offering locals and visitors an authentic taste of Down Under. Opened in 2001, this delightful eatery serves up a menu filled with savory pies, sweet treats, and a selection of Australian grocery items. With native Australian co-owners Neville Steel, Mark Allen, and Wendy Anderson at the helm, the cafe delivers a genuine Aussie experience.
Authentic Aussie Eats
The star of the show at the Australian Bakery Cafe is undoubtedly the meat pie. Handmade and baked daily, these pies are crafted using choice cuts of meat encased in a flaky pastry crust. With over 27 varieties available, including steak and mushroom, Ned Kelly Pie, and curry chicken, there’s a pie for every palate. As Mark Allen puts it, “Our goal was not just to make the best meat pies in America but to rival anything back home in Australia too.” Judging by the rave reviews, they’ve succeeded.
Beyond the Pies
Beyond the iconic meat pies, the Australian Bakery Cafe offers a range of other savory delights. The sausage rolls are a must-try, offering a tasty blend of pork and beef wrapped in flaky pastry. For breakfast lovers, the Aussie Breakfast Pies, filled with eggs, cheese, and other delicious ingredients, are a morning favorite. And let’s not forget the ‘Sanga’ sandwiches for lunch, featuring fresh, crusty artisan bread and a variety of fillings that include roasted chicken and slow-roasted beef.
Sweet Treats and Aussie Groceries
The cafe is also great for those with a sweet tooth. Patrons can indulge in traditional desserts like pavlovas and lamingtons. These treats provide a perfect taste of Australia’s famous baking traditions. Additionally, the cafe stocks a selection of Australian grocery items, including Tim Tams, Vegemite, and Bundaberg Ginger Beer, allowing customers to take a piece of Australia home with them.
A Nationwide Sensation
The success of the Australian Bakery Cafe has extended beyond Marietta Square. Its reputation has reached Aussie expats across America, with many making the pilgrimage to the cafe for a genuine taste of home. The demand for their famous meat pies even led to the creation of an online store, allowing customers to order pies shipped fresh nationwide.
