Brisbane's Best Italian Bakeries

Brisbane is home to a small number of traditional Italian bakery/cafes and pasticcerias, where you can pick up pane di casa, cannolis and other delicious baked goods. Here's where to find them, including an Italian arcade cafe that bakes its own pastries:

Gerbino's Pasticcera

Half bakery, half pasticceria, this Italian gem is tucked away from the main Ashgrove action and more than warrants a detour

Torrisi’s Delights

This charming café and patisserie, tucked away on a corner street, brings a taste of Italy to Windsor

Cerin Pasticceria

The gorgeous artisan Italian patisserie brings an authentic and delectable taste of Italy to the historic Logan Rd dining precinct

A Mano Cafe

This pocket-sized pasticceria provides a scrumptious selection of traditional Italian desserts

Torrisi's Delights

An authentic little Italian bakery and pasticceria tucked away on Brisbane's north side

Dolci Sapori

A small sweet chunk of Italy lies concealed behind what appears from the main road to be a closed off shopping strip

Marchetti

Elegant little Italian cafe Marchetti brings a continental touch of class and the aroma of fresh baked pastries to Brisbane’s splendid heritage-listed Tattersall’s Arcade.

Pasteio

While Pasteio specializes in pasta, they also do some of Brisbane's best Italian sweets and you can enjoy them with a coffee onsite
