What to Expect
Bagel Hills serves bagels in Melbourne. At a proper bagel shop, the bagels are hand-rolled and boiled before baking — a process that gives them their characteristic chewy crust and dense interior. Expect cream cheese, lox, and a range of spreads alongside the bagels. The morning rush is the peak time; bagel shops tend to be early-hours operations, and popular varieties sell out.
Bakeries in Melbourne
Melbourne has built a bakery culture that punches well above its weight. Lune Croissanterie alone has made the city a destination for croissant pilgrims, but the broader scene — Tivoli Road Bakery, Baker D. Chirico, Loafer Bread — is built on long-ferment sourdough, careful sourcing, and a café culture that treats the morning pastry with the same reverence as the morning coffee.
