Via Porta Bakehouse

Yes, the coffee is nice! You should also try their egg tarts. And if you get a croissant, toast it at home - it's even better that way.

An artisan bakery in the heart of Glenferrie with cabinets adorned in high-quality viennoiserie, both in their ingredients and boulangerie pâtisserie skill. Their creations appear to change daily with a curation of carefully selected flavours which complement the food as a whole; I enjoyed their Blueberry Danish which was nicely broken up in richness with a natural Lime custard. Next time I will be getting the Foccasia which I keep thinking about (they need more savoury options on the weekend!). Their drink options (hot and cold) are substantial and offered in an array of non-dairy options, which at their price point is approachable for this locations offerings. They also stock organic juice and offer an assortment of high quality ready-made meals to take home from their other locations (which include a restaurant). With little space for dining, but many nearby outdoor tables (two of which are their own), this is a nice spot to grab lunch to take away if you are local. It is accessible and friendly in service. As a local, I hadn’t noticed its opening due to the store not having loud signage as their neighboiring store fronts in Hawthorn. It would be lovely to see some of their daily creations shared on their online business profile. The bakehouse is locational opposite the church, alongside Burwood and Glenferrie Road.

Choc croissant could have more chocolate. It was pretty average taste wise. For $7.5 + CC surcharge, it was poor value.

Hands down one of the best coffees I have ever had in Melbourne! Pair it with a super tasty pastry and you are good to go. We had the cinnamon scroll and it was absolutely amazing. Prices are a little bit on the higher side but you definitely get what you paid for. They also have ready made meals and desserts for days when you don't feel like making food at home. Would highly recommend!

The places is absolutely beautiful, the design is just what you need in the mornings and also the amazing catalogue of this bakery. I ordered a cinnamon roll with coffe and it became one of my top 3 favorites in Melbourne. It's a small place and the coffe is quite small for the price.
