The Basin Bakery

Best pies and pasties! No kidding! Pasties are fantastic! With a capital F. The filling is huge, tasty and well above expectations. Pies are so good it's not funny.

I got the coffee scroll from here on a whim and made plans to be back in the area just to buy another one on a separate day. They are so good.

Bakery has just recently had a extension and made larger because of the amount of people they service in The Basin

I popped in here today to get some lunch for the troops and found so much more. Obviously everything was delicious, from cakes, donuts, pastries, to the bread rolls. The standout, as is often the case, was the people. The staff were friendly, funny, and memorable. Even the other patrons were a delight; comfortable enough to chat and joke with their fellow bakery-goers as they waited patiently for their delectable treats to be served up. Is it weird that I had fun?

Fantastic staff, the only things better; their bread cakes and ice creams in cones or buckets.

Delicious food and good service. Outdoor footpath seating offers a good option to sit and eat.

Decent food. Too bad pretty much everytime you ask for anything whether it is meat pies, bread rolls, loafs of bread or hot dogs they are always sold out. Getting toilet paper during COVID was easier than trying to get anything from this business

Coffee was really good for a bakery. Coffee scroll was nice. Tried a mudcake roll and a truffle ball, geez they were amazing.
I'm trying to write this without my sister in law reading this as she will be upset, but the caramel slice was serious business, I've never had one as nice as this! Awesome products here, this hidden gem really is a place you should definitely make the trip to!

Steak & cheese was real good, tastes home made, friendly staff & heaps of variety there aswell.

Still our favourite Bakery and now that Fi and Mario have expanded their premises, have made it even better. Great variety of pies, pasties, sausage rolls and savoury pastries, wide selection of breads and cakes as well as takeaway coffees, cold drinks, sandwich bar and even ice creams. A great place so stop to grab a bite before heading up or down Mt Dandenong via Mountain Hwy for car travellers, cyclists and pedestrians alike. Situated in a fantastic little local shopping strip right opposite The Basin Triangle Open Space, ideal for a leg stretch, kids play or just a nice sit down with great Basin Bakery food.

For $5 i never wanted a well done pie which tasted burnt and awful. Should have gone to an Asian bakery in alchester instead.

$6 for a "chunky" steak pie that is minced beef with no flavor
Really disappointed as I used to love the place

A quick brunch on the fly is always on the cards when passing, The Basin bakery also make very yummy pies, and the vegetarian quice, well I'll let you decide.

'Thought I'd order an ordinary pie today - for a normal price, and was blown away at how full of flavour it was. And how much filling it contained. The Cafe is well worth a detour.

Always very helpful, kind and service with a smile there is lots of choices in pastry, cakes and breads.

Love stopping here for an after-school treat or for lunchorder Friday's as our school doesn't do lunchorders. But just recently we got some quiches like we do weekly but the I think the recipe has changed as they never used to have onion and now do, it would have been nice to know before buying I ended up wasting 6 mini quiches.

Great pies, pastry perfect and with lots of filling. Wide assortment of cakes - only tried two. Will be back to try more. Friendly staff.

Great bakery. Had a butter chicken pie. It was awesome. Friendly staff. Big variety.of pastries.

One of the best local bakeries throughout Melbourne, and deserves to be even more famous than it is. Amazing bread varieties and regular loaves, fantastic treats, a kids' heaven of favourite sweet and savoury baked goods, all served by friendly staff offering great service.

Great little bakery. Love their pies, wonderfully crisp pastry that holds the filling in and great range of flavours.
Bread and cakes are also great and well priced
