Doughcraft
Albion home to this European-style bakery serving up Nutella-filled cruffins and moreish raclettes.
Overview
If simply hearing about a particular type of food instantly makes you want to eat it, consider yourself warned: we see a hefty array of baked goods in your future. Albion has just welcomed a new haven for bread, pasta and pastries in the form of newcomer Doughcraft that heroes European-style bites.
If hearing about Albion's latest additions instantly makes you think about Craft'd Grounds, too, you're on the right track here. Open since June 2022, Doughcraft has settled into the new inner-north dining precinct, which is also home to everything from coffee roastery Seven Miles and brewery Brewtide through to French fine-diner Herve's.
On the bakery's menu: bread and butter pudding, Basque cheesecake and lemon tarts round out the sweet side of things, while the loaves include multigrain, sourdough and a range of traditional baguettes. Sweet, savoury, hot, cold, eating in, taking away: they're all covered at Doughcraft in Brisbane.
Visitors to the Albion spot will notice the open, airy look and feel, too — amid everything tempting their tastebuds — including a glass-enclosed preparation area where you can watch pasta being made. Repurposed timbers and materials feature heavily, and Doughcraft skews as European as possible with its hanging shelves filled with baskets of bread.
Sustainability is also a huge focus, with the bakery favouring local ingredients and aiming to create zero food wastage. The latter means turning leftover croissants into puddings, as well as donating excess bread to farmers to feed livestock — and finding as many other ways to tick that box as possible.
