Banneton Bakery Woolloongabba

The coffee is always well made, has a particularly strong chocolate aftertaste that is perfect for a bakery and goes well with the breads and croissants.
Unfortunately it seems that it is under new ownership and the staff are particularly unwelcoming and rude, to the point I have stopped going there unless there are no other options available or I really feel like having that chocolate aftertaste… and then I don’t eat in any more, I just accept I’ll get a rude and abrupt serve and leave.
Good quality has also gone down and each time I was eating there (always the same thing) it was a lottery

Nice enough bread, unfortunately the staff need a personality transplant, and in my experience are the rudest staff that I have had the misfortune of turning my nose up to in Brisbane. I thought it might have just been a bad day, however, it seems to be consistent from the owner to the shop assistants.

Love Banneton, one of the best bakeries around. But I've noticed the bread quality being inconsistent recently. Sourdoughs have sometimes been a bit too chewy. The coffee and staff have been 10/10 recently though.

Great sourdough and reasonable coffee, but it always takes far too long to get in and out. It looks as though they have enough staff on (though another barista wouldn’t go astray) yet it’s always a 15 - 20 minute wait (minimum) to get coffee and a loaf. I don’t know why they can’t be more efficient.

Wow! This has to be one of my new favourite spots for coffee and fresh pastries! Visited here early on a Sunday morning, and although was a line up to order, the service was super fast!
We ordered two coffees and two pastries- a cinnamon scroll and a cherry danish. It was obvious these were baked fresh, as they were so soft and delicious. Although I do wish the scroll was warmed up, it was my fault for not asking! The coffees were equally as good, they came out so fast yet were smooth tasting.
There’s very limited seating here, so you may be waiting a little bit if you come on the weekend.

Everything that we have bought from Banneton over the years have been exceptional. The sourdough loaves are the best. They are great to be eaten with literally anything, sweet or savoury. The brandied fruit loaf is great, and so is the olive and rosemary loaf. I also love the pretzels, bagels, the almond croissants and the almond pretzels. One will not be disappointed by anything they choose to get from Banneton.

Banneton Sourdough is very good and it toasts up very well.
Update:
Got a beef and Guinness pie and it had way too much little potato cubes in it and fell apart halfway into eating. It was ok but not $8 great.

Great bakery with lots of pastries. Coffee is good and the food is great! There is a space to sit outside but inside is quite tight. The Pork and Fennel roll is amazing!

Did you know that the Banneton Bakery site in Woolloongabba used to be a warehouse loading dock? Being in an industrial looking area probably explains why I've driven along Balaclava St without ever realising there's a bakery/cafe there! It wasn't until after my visit to their Ashgrove branch that I knew the original outlet is closer to me. So when wifey wanted to head to the Koorong book store a block away I had the perfect opportunity to take a detour.
My order:
* almond croissant, $6
* cinnamon/vanilla scroll, $5.50
While deciding I let another customer order ahead of me, and she literally

Moussaka had great flavour maybe even too much? By itself it's bit of struggle to eat, rekon pair it with a salad and it would balance the flavour out. Ice choc was nothing special, tasted more like an ice Milo 5/10. Pie had beautiful crust and tasted earthy and rich, tomato relish worked really well with it. Worth the high price!

Stopped here for breakfast on our way to the Gold Coast. Place did not disappoint. 1st, service was excellent. The workers really seemed to appreciate and want to accommodate their customers. Few places in the U.S. have service like this. We ordered several items, including the multigrain loaf, frittata, blueberry Danish, sausage and fennel roll, and pesto salami sandwich. All were excellent.

I've gotten a few of their sourdough loaves, and the texture, taste, and range of choices are all excellent. When I've brought in in for groups of people, it disappears quickly every time. It's the sort of bread that has an addictive quality.

They offer pastries and savory items as well. The spanakopita I tried when I needed a meal was good but not earth-shattering. I suspect the bigger breads are where it's at, but there's plenty else to try.

This location does have some seating if you want to eat a pastry and coffee there.

The best..no comparison in Brisbane if you are looking for bread for your business or at home..this is pretty hard to beat.i have been going here for five years now after doing a taste test with a rival baker..Levain..this leaves Levain products for dead. ..great counter staff at Balaclava St. and at Kelvin Grove Markets on a Saturday. .try a pie fresh from the oven on a cold day....heaven..another massive plus is you can chat to the baker and he is glad to discuss any issues you have and put you in the right direction...you can also phone order and they will keep your order until you can make

Possibly the best bakery on Brisbane's south side. I don't know about you but French + bakery = joygasm.

Banneton ticks all the boxes that I look for in a bakery -
Array of sweet & savouries that look so tasty that I don't care if I gain 100kg if I eat them all? Check.
They do DECENT bagels? Check.
Their crossaints make so happy I kinda wanna cry? Check.
Lovely people behind counter? Check.
Coffee of a consistent and tasty nature? Check

Banneton is the place to go if you are seeking bakery good of any kind, great for weekend breakfasts/brunches/lunches.

Only downsides are

Yummy scrummy!!! Discovered this gorgeous bakery/cafe when I had to drop my darling dog across the road at the Greencross Vet. Ordered a toasted ham and cheese crossiant and it exceeded all of my expectations. The ham was hand cut leg ham and extremely tasty. The exterior was crunchy and the inside gooey. Perfect.
There was an extensive array of gorgeous patisserie items in their display cabinet, as well as delectable looking bagels and rolls filled with all sorts of goodies. Coffee was nice too! Happy customer :)

Great food, great coffee.. Awesome service. The range of sweet & savoury food is amazing.. Fresh and appealing to all tastes.. This is a gorgeous bakery, patisserie, cafe.. Busy every day of the week. Dine in or takeaway..

Perfect weekend breakfast, great coffee and delicious food (grab a danish to take home) ! Interesting spot too, feels a mile away from the industrial surrounds as soon as you walk in. Win :)

This place is my regular Saturday morning spot. Grab coffee, delicious bread and a cheeky pastry treat to kickstart the weekend.
Always a queue but it's worth the wait.
Try the Brekky Basket for something savoury and hearty to tuck into.

Delectable pastries and breakfasts! One of my favorite bakeries around Brisbane, hands down.

They offer bread loafs, croissants, sweet and savory tarts, and even macarons! So good and so fresh.

Banneton Bakery is one of those little gems, well known to the locals of the eastern suburbs, which is how we like it. Balaclava Street, a strange mix of tradie outlets, mechanics and deli's, has long been the home of rare delicacies and good bargains, and Banneton is no different.

On offer are savoury and sweet pastries, a variety of breads, filled sandwiches, and barrista pulled espresso coffees. The breads and pastries are all baked in a wood fired oven, and are expertly made.The croissants in particular are a must try, perfectly flaky on the outside while staying moist and buttery on

Balavlava St in Woolloongabba holds an array of delightful surprises for those who bother to adventure down what seems like a very industrial space. Banneton is one of these surprises.

I dropped in on a Friday afternoon and instantly had my mood lifted by the chipper and charming personalities behind the counter, which was full of deliciously appealing baked treats. There were six flavours of macarons to choose from - being all fairly common flavours, I had a hard time choosing a stand-out to taste... so I got the mixed box of all six (choc orange, raspberry, citrus, chocolate, coffee and pistachio

When someone says bakery, I say Banneton. The team are truly some of the best our fine city has to offer. They are known for their wood fired breads and there is something special about walking down to their Woolloongabba home on a Saturday morning, picking up a fresh loaf of bread and walking home with the freshly baked scent wafting through the house. They do cater for us glutards as well.

However, where Banneton comes into their own is with their danishes and other French style baked goods. I dare you not to fall madly in love with their baked cherry danish.

Can't get to Woolloongabba

In a very industrial looking area of Woolloongabba, just two doors down from Pennisi Cuisine is Banneton Bakery. Famous for its wood-fried breads, Banneton Bakery also sells a range of French patisserie style baked treats and cakes, savouries, sandwiches and serves coffee.

The venue is not very large, and it gets very busy on the weekend for breakfast. There might be a wait on a table if you're not early.

I am always on the hunt for bagels and Banneton Bakery does those too. The bagels sell out early on Saturday, so get there early or phone up and pre-order. There is only one type of bagel
