Flour and Stone

Overview

Woolloomooloo favourite Flour and Stone is loved among locals and visitors alike for its top-notch pastries, delicious sandwiches and overall simple comfort food.

Its counter treats are baked daily and change regularly, with sweet options including a strawberry and rosemary brûlée, a quince and custard tart, a delightfully crunchy rocky road and blueberry scones with jam and cream. If you're after something more savoury try a cheese and chive scone (only available Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday), a leek and gruyere cheese tart or a spanikopita.

For something more substantial it also offers a great range of sandwiches, including a sage roasted pumpkin with taleggio, walnut, cavolo nero, bechamel and cayenne pepper; a leg ham option with gruyere, smokey wholegrain mustard and aioli on sourdough; as well as a poached chicken variety with mayonnaise and granny's pickles.

The pies here are famous too, with people making the trek from all over Sydney to enjoy one. Options include chicken, leek and tarragon; beef Rendang; dahl-tadka; and a scrumptious pork and caraway sausage roll.
