The Best Bakeries Between Dunsborough & Margaret River (Part 2)
If you thought Part 1 of our bakery road trip was tasty, wait until you sink your teeth into this next stretch! Western Australia is blessed with incredible local bakers who know how to serve up pastries, bread, and treats that make any road trip more memorable. Whether you’re after a quick coffee and snack or a destination-worthy bakery, this part of the journey has you covered.
Augusta Bakery
Where: Blackwood Avenue, Augusta
As you roll into Augusta, this bakery hits you with that warm, country charm you’ve been chasing all trip long. Friendly service, golden flaky pastries, hearty pies, and breads baked fresh throughout the day — it feels like a community hub as much as a bakery. Whether you’re fuelling up before exploring the Cape Leeuwin Lighthouse or winding down after a day of ocean views, Augusta Bakery delivers the comfort and quality you’d hope for.
👉 Don’t Miss: The custard-fruited strudel — crisp puff pastry wrapped around soft custard and fruit, with a dusting of sugar. A beautiful mix of sweet, creamy, and flaky that feels like nostalgia in every bite.
2. Maison Lassiaille Patisserie
Location: Vasse
For something a bit more refined, Maison Lassiaille brings authentic French flair to the region. The delicate pastries here look like works of art, and they taste just as good as they look. Think buttery croissants, éclairs, and tarts that will transport you straight to Paris — only with a WA twist.
Try this: Raspberry éclair or almond croissant.
3. Wild Hop Brewing Co. (For Beer & Bread Lovers)
Location: Yallingup Hills
Yes, this is a brewery — but don’t overlook their wood-fired bread and snack menu. Wild Hop Brewing Co. loaves are baked to complement their beers, making this stop ideal if you want something a little different from your usual bakery fare. Grab a loaf and enjoy the views while you’re there.
Try this: Their beer bread with a local cheese platter.
Kingston Bakery Cafe
Location: Margaret River
Kingston Bakery Cafe blends the classic with a twist. Early-morning runs see locals grabbing bacon-and-egg rolls, crusty rolls, and strong coffee, while throughout the day their display shows off cakes, pastries, and savoury favourites. Add in friendly service, generous portions, and a warm atmosphere and you’ve got a spot perfect for breakfast, lunch or sweet treats on the road.
👉 Don’t Miss: Try their Vietnamese pork roll — fresh, flavourful, and a unique bakery twist that gets reviewers raving whenever it’s on the menu.
Tips for a Bakery Road Trip
- Go early: The best pastries and breads often sell out by mid-morning.
- Bring cash: While most bakeries take cards, smaller country ones sometimes prefer cash.
- Plan your stops: It’s easy to lose track of time (and stomach space), so map your must-visits before hitting the road.
- Share plates: If you’re travelling with others, buy a few items to share so you can taste more along the way.
