Why it's worth checking out
Baker D. Chirico sits on Faraday Street in Carlton, one of Melbourne's most established inner-city suburbs near the university, from a much-loved Melbourne bakery name. With 284 reviews behind its 4.2 rating, it has built a strong following.
The appeal is quality bread and pastries with a devoted following — a lovely spot to pick up beautiful sourdough, pastries, a treat or a coffee, the kind of craft bakery that earns loyal regulars. Its Faraday Street location, close to Lygon Street, makes it an easy and welcoming stop.
Menus, specials and trading hours change over time, and popular items can sell out. If you're after something particular or specific opening hours, it's worth confirming the current details directly before you head over.
