The Flour House in Highett is not your ordinary bakery. Upon entering, you are instantly met with the smell of freshly baked bread. At the front counter is their display cabinet decked out with the most delicious pastries, and sandwhiches. There, you will also find their self service bread display with shelves and shelves of the freshest loaves ready for you to take home.

Continue to walk through the warehouse style cafe and you will find a beautiful wooden pergola adorned with ALL the greenery, briinging a warmth and homely feeling to an otherwise vast space.

The back of the cafe is dedicated to their fully operational bakery and kitchen. There is a working flour mill (where they mill their own grain sourced from local Victorian farmers) as well as shipping container kitchen and gallery style prep area with industrial baking ovens - all on display for people to witness and appreciate the farm to table ethos that is synonymous with The Flour House.

Besides their beautiful bakery goods, The Flour House also has an amazing sit down menu of classic and contemporary cafe style meals. Mamma could not go past the salmon on Finnish Rye, while the kids opted for scrambled eggs on toast and a super flakey and buttery croissant.

If dining in is not on the cards, the takeaway window located at the front of the cafe is the perfect way to grab a coffee and pastry before moving on to your next adventure!
