A humble roadside stall made from two old fridges, the Bruny Island Baker embodies the island’s charm and delights the taste buds of all who visit.

Nestled on the picturesque shores of lunawuni / Bruny Island, Tasmania, lies a hidden gem captivating locals and tourists alike.

With a humble roadside stall made from two old fridges, and a wood-fired oven that produces tantalizing aromas, the Bruny Island Baker has created an attraction that embodies the island’s charm and delights the taste buds of all who visit.

The Bruny Island Baker has a passion for the art of bread-making that runs deep. With a family history deeply rooted in baking, Tom has carried on the tradition and brought it to the shores of Bruny Island.

The Art of Wood-Fired Baking:

The use of a wood-fired oven is a vital element that sets the Bruny Island Baker apart. This traditional method infuses the bread with a distinct smoky flavor and a rustic, crispy crust that elevates each loaf to new heights. Tom carefully selects the finest ingredients, including locally sourced flour and organic grains, ensuring that each bite is a testament to his dedication to quality and craftsmanship.

A Unique Roadside Stall:

As you traverse Bruny Island, watch for the unassuming roadside stall on the corner of Sheepwash Road that houses the Bruny Island Baker’s creations.

Two old fridges transformed into a charming display, proudly showcasing an assortment of freshly baked bread. The simplicity of the stall reflects the authenticity of Tom’s approach, emphasizing the true star of the show—the bread.
