But one thing that's consistent is the good coffee, pastries and breads. Love the pistachio croissant as well but almond croissant any day is my pick. The chocolate brownie is so decadent and I get it almost every time I am here. I love the Endo loaf and foccacia and love that everything is milled and made freshly on the premises!
Dust makes everything in house including milling their own flour! You can see the mill at work through an enclosed glass area. All the breads and pastries look tempting. I enjoyed the croissants, danish with mushrooms, the brioche looking donut, palmier which is a little different with fennel. The cinnamon scrolls are also great as is their hot cross buns which is dense which is how a traditional bun should be.

After producing their own flour, the Dust Bakery team gently mix, then slow-ferment using a mother culture that began in 1980 (for the rye breads) and 1999 (for the white breads), before baking their breads. The Bok wheat sourced in Emerald in Central Queensland, is turned into a wood fired bread called Village Loaf ($17/full, $9/half) which is Dust Bakery’s signature bread. More than just a bakery, Dust is also a restaurant, and the classes include a ...read more
