Stopped in here with work colleagues and had lunch. The food was ok and the atmosphere average. Just a small shop with two tables and some old books and cabinets. The food was standard for a bakery and not a massive range either. About the same you can find in most bakeries taste wise. The staff were ok and no eftpos available — cash only — which is way behind the times!

I love the food! Always have But after living away for 5 years I went back yesterday and asked for a pack of sausage rolls. I was met my a rude lady… Yes I know they don’t come in a pack but they never had issues wrapping some up. She treated me like an idiot… I really was not impressed. I had a friend with me who had never been before, not a great first impression. The reputation this place used to have may be gone. Which I hope not :(

Despite some of the other reviews, I have found this bakery amazing on both occasions we have come here! The first time was a fluke, as we were hungry and it was one of the only places open on the public holiday. We were pleasantly surprised by how ‘home-made’ everything is, and how cheap it was! I had the cheese and vegetarian pasty, which was amazing, and my partner had the steak and mushroom pie(which she said was equally amazing — there were big chunks of slow-cooked steak in there — mmmm!). Today we came here as the main destination — there are only 2 tables in here, and we were lucky enough to score on again. I had the steak and bacon pie — seriously the best bakery pie I have *ever* had!!! My partner had the steak and mushroom again, and Miss 7 tried the potato pie. Wow! The only reason this place doesn’t score 5 stars is because the sweet offerings are fairly boring(just your typical lamingtons, cakes and slices — nothing very adventurous — I’m more of a salted caramel tart kind of girl!), but the savoury items are their real strength here. Will definitely be back! Oh, and make sure you bring cash, as they don’t have eftpos!

Average. I’ve had better and I’ve had worse. I wouldn’t go out of my way to get a pie from here but wouldn’t avoid it either. There are no interesting options on the menu just the basic meat pie or pasty etc. I recommended going a bit further to the bakery in seaford shopping center. That place is seriously underrated and way better than Willunga bakery but there’s nowhere to sit down and eat.

Bakery bliss Ask 5 people about their fave pasty/pie bakery and you’ll get 5 different answers. And why is it that most of them will be out of the city? Must be the clean air, the relaxed lifestyle, the small town dedication to pasty perfection? Whatever! My personal South Australian favourite has always been Pt Elliot bakery and I have never been swayed by minor deviations to Mylor or Echunga or Mt Barker. I still don’t know how Willunga Bakery had slipped by my attention despite it being personally recommended by various market goers and bush walkers. Post Saturday morning Willunga Farmer’s Market the joint was heaving, every nook and cranny stuffed with families relishing oozing pies and buttery pasties. The fresh baked smell wafted outside and lured us in. We succumbed to a vegetarian pasty to share — just for research purposes, nothing could ever compare or be as good as Pt Elliot… Well I stand corrected — in a scale of 1 – 10 — 10 being pasty perfection we scored it 9⁄10. Absolutely worth the deviation off the Victor Harbor Road if you’re heading south however don’t leave it too late in the day as the hungry hoards of market goers, Saturday sporting Mum and Dad chauffeurs and local footballers and netballers make short work of the steaming, fresh out the oven pastries. PS we also bought a crunchy, chewy and very moreish french stick(note to self — get out of bed earlier if you want to buy bread from Willunga market) to eat for our picnic lunch(post pasty appetizer) — also highly recommended.
