King Street Bakery

Nice Bakery in a very busy part of Bowen Hills. Not much parking nearby and you have to pay unless you stay less than 15 Minutes. Lots of nice pastries and pre-packaged meals.. they have a dining in area as well with inside and outside seating. They did seem to have quite a few Gluten Free options and I saw at least one Vegan cake. Only seemed to be one person serving so it was a little wait to be served. Saying that there is not a lot of serving space.

Bakery 5 stars. Really great ham and cheese. Coffee 2 star - unfortunately if you make it too hot, it’s an instant 1 star. This was hotter than lava. Please have your attendants learn the correct temperature, otherwise it burns your tongue, you can’t drink it with your meal, and it ruins the milk. This falls into the realm of “mall coffee” standards. Edit: upgraded coffee to 2 stars because it was my fault for not ordering non-lava. Expanded description of awesome patisserie.

Ordered a medium latte, after 5 min, I got the small size. Thanks for your reply,but I couldn't wait another 5 min and miss my early morning meeting because of "Trivial mistake" you said. I was in rush to go back to my office and just realised on my way back. So, please bare in mind that it's important to respect people's time. I would let my staff know about this instead of asking reviewers reconsider their actions. Cheers

It used to be very popular and full of goods on a regular Saturday morning. Empty shop when we arrived (approx 10:45) and racks were empty - I guess they've resized given not many people visit nowadays and it's a bit sad because the baked goods are still fairly on point. We got 3 hot drinks, 1 bacon/egg burger, 1 pain au chocolat and 1 lamb pastie. Total $50. The pastie's filling tasted more like a kidney/liver filling but the bread was excellent. Everything else was great too. I guess COVID has hit pretty hard on them and that's a shame.

Coffee is very subjective. This was my first time visiting this establishment and I thought the Coffee was just average for the price. Not bad (like I consider Starbucks coffee), but not great either. My 2 star rating is more towards the unfriendly / disinterested staff member. Costs and inflation is pushing the prices of everything up. So I don't mind paying over $5 for the Coffees.. but friendly customer service costs nothing. Hoping it was just a once off bad day for that person.
