Connells Bakery

Best Known For

Gourmet pastries and pies such as Gippsland chunky Angus beef in red wine gravy, with diced bacon, caramelised red onion and mozzarella.

Freshly baked bread, pies, cakes, sandwiches and great coffee have locals and visitors returning time and again to Connells Bakery on Murray Street in Wonthaggi. This family-owned and operated Gippsland bakery and café is the place to head to refuel and recharge with a choice from cabinets overflowing with temptations or devour a flaky golden pastry gourmet pie with your brew of choice. Perhaps a chilli and cheese sausage roll hits the mark, or a meat and vegetable pastie; while those time-poor opt for grab-and-go options such as a mixed pack of sandwiches or a bacon, egg and cheese brioche roll. Toasties like chicken, cheese and mayo are always favourites, washed down with an iced chocolate; finish with a sweet treat like decadent caramel slice, or vanilla slice topped with passionfruit.
