Catering to the crowds: Halswell Bakery

Whether you’re hosting an event or planning a picnic for Cup Day, the talented team at Halswell Bakery can provide fresh, delicious catering to suit any requirements.

From tasty club sandwich platters, bacon and egg slices, mini quiches and savouries to yummy birthday cakes, donuts and sweet treats, everything is freshly handmade on-site. They are renowned for their delicious pies, and steak and cheese is a best seller, says owner Ruth Buckley. “We make everything from scratch, including the pastry, and all our fresh meat and vegetables are sourced locally.”

With a focus on fast, friendly and efficient service, the team encourage customers to bring in reusable cups for a discount on their delicious Three Llamas coffee, made by the talented baristas. “Minimising our impact on the environment is really important to me, and we go by the motto ‘simply delicious and deliciously simple’ – we don’t do fancy – just good, tasty, wholesome food.”
