Fig Tree Bakehouse

Regardless negative reviews, would like to support a small business. The whole shop looked ok; not spotlessly clean nor dirty. The food/sweet display was alright; at least clean and not empty. First looked in the pie warmer, but pies didn’t look attractive (looked like they were there long ago). Grabbed a couple of almond croissants ($5.50 each) and a couple of iced vanilla slices ($4.60 each). I noticed some of the croissants got a burnt parts, but didn’t expect the seller would have given me those ones. The croissants weren’t flaky or puffed but tasted not too bad. The slices texture were passable but overly sweet. The business located in quite a good location where there were a number of people shopping in the centre. Hopefully, the shop owner would think of the products and the service improvements, so the business could attract more customers.

Vanilla slice has an odd texture as if its stale, and the lady serving me was quite rude and dismissive, awful tone. Could at least pretend you dont hate serving your customers.

Great bakery. Friendly staff. Yummy Banh Mi and salad rolls.

Best bahn mi in forest lake. The chicken ones are fantastic

I’m from the NT but first discovered this place back in 2016. These guys make the best sausage rolls I’ve ever had. Every flavour is fantastic, the size is great, perfect flaky pastry and they’re not overly oily. Even better they’re only $4.20-$4.70!! Every person I’ve convinced to go there has not been disappointed. Best sausage roll in Australia!!!

Ordered a plain croissant that it was dry and not fluffy, maybe old or not enough butter. Got a croissant with almond crust that was probably for 3 days in the fridge, cold as and with that fridge flavour. The sausage rolls looks good but I’m not giving a go again. The service was not very friendly, not one smile and not courtesy.

Purchased a cheese and bacon pie and thought it tasted a little funny. Only to realise they’ve used silverside instead of bacon. Very disappointed 😔
