People rave about Zeally Bay Sourdoughs organic, long-fermented breads, calling them some of the best tasting and smelling loaves in Melbourne. Reviewers love that the bread stays fresh for days and toasts beautifully, with many noting its artisan quality and how gentle it is on the stomach. The team is frequently praised for warm, generous service, and customers say once they try it, they dont want any other bread.
Top picks include the Casalinga loaf, spelt bread, Seed and Sprout sourdough, rolls for toasted cheese and tomato, and pizza bases that hold plenty of toppings. Seasonal favourites like hot cross buns and the sourdough-leavened Panettone get special mentions, especially served toasted. Beyond bread, fans also love the Orange Spice & Coconut Sugar granola and the organic muesli.
