Why Melbourne keeps coming back to Garage Bread
We started in a garage in Melbourne with a sourdough starter, a stone deck oven and one simple belief: good bread takes time. Today we supply households, cafés and markets across Victoria, and we still bake the same way — by hand, in small batches, with ingredients we would happily feed our own families.
Here is what sets us apart, loaf after loaf.
1. Baked in small batches, never mass-produced
Every sourdough loaf, pastry tray and batch of granola is mixed, shaped and finished by hand in controlled small batches. That means consistent quality, careful attention to fermentation, and nothing sitting on a shelf losing freshness. When a batch sells out, we bake again — we never compromise the process to push volume.
2. Honest ingredients, no shortcuts
Our bread is built on stoneground flour, natural leaven, quality butter and produce from Victorian growers. No dough improvers, no artificial additives, no flavour shortcuts. Read our labels and you will recognise every ingredient — that is exactly how it should be.
3. Freshness you can genuinely taste
We bake to order wherever possible, timing production so your bread leaves our oven at peak freshness. Whether it is a morning delivery to your café or a weekend order for the family table, you will taste the difference that a proper overnight ferment and a same-day bake make.
4. Proudly local to Melbourne
We bake in Melbourne VIC and we buy local wherever we can — flour from Victorian mills, seasonal produce from regional growers, and packaging from Australian suppliers. Choosing Garage Bread means supporting a local small business that reinvests in its own community.
5. Ordering made simple
Wholesale supply for cafés and restaurants, weekly subscriptions for households, catering platters for events, or a one-off order for a special occasion — our ordering is straightforward with clear lead times, transparent pricing and flexible delivery across our service areas. No confusing minimums, no hidden fees.
6. A team that treats every order like it matters
You are never just an order number to us. We get to know our regulars, we remember how your café likes its loaves scored, and we follow up to make sure every delivery arrived exactly as it should. If something is ever not right, we make it right — quickly and without fuss.
