Baker Bleu Will be Slinging Pizzas, Pastries and Loaded Sangas From Its New Cremorne Cafe This Spring

Baker Bleu started life as a tiny Elsternwick storefront in 2016, but its long-fermented sourdough bread and seasonal pastries helped it quickly rocket to cult status. Now, it's one of the best bakeries in Melbourne, boasting sites in Caulfield North, Prahran and Sydney's Double Bay. Its bread and pastries are also carted off to a heap of Melbourne cafes every day.

Having nailed the whole grab-and-go bakery situation, the crew's next venture will be an all-day cafe in Cremorne — slated to open this spring. Its much-loved baked goods will all be up for grabs here, but there's going to be so much more available.

For one, folks can dine in, either inside the fresh new digs designed by IF Architecture (who've worked on luxe spots like Marion, Attica and Etta) or out on the street. Its savoury game will also be amped up. Expect a heap more freshly made sangas, plus a selection of sourdough pizzas.

"We're thrilled to be opening a store in Cremorne," says baker and owner Mike Russell. "It's a slightly different market for us and marks an exciting new chapter for Baker Bleu, it's something bigger than anything we've done before."

Baker Bleu's new cafe will be found at 65 Dover Street, Cremorne. We don't have an exact opening date yet, but we will be sure to keep you updated as soon as we find out more. In the meantime, feel free to head to the venue's website for additional information.
