Polish Rye Crust Bakery is a simple looking cafe/bakery in the heart of Dandenong selling pretzels. Babka, pierogi, baguette’s, cakes and more, most of which are made fresh on the premises. The bread is made with the kind of patience and attention that most foodies only dream of, using starter culture more than a century old.

Polish Rye Crust Bakery scores a whopping 4.6 out of 5 on the Zomato charts which is how I ended up popping in for a brunch date. A little photo montage on the wall shows that I am not alone in travelling across town for a visit. Previous visitors include Matt Preston and Maeve O’Meara from Food Safari and all with good reason.

We started with coffee.

We also ordered a breakfast bagel which was simply delicious. Or rather simple and delicious. Perfectly textured bagel filled with layers of sliced egg, salad, cream cheese and topped with a sprinkle on sesame seeds. The excellent bagel elevated a simple sandwich to the next level. There was fighting over who would get the last bite. 🙂

Bagel

A sweet little orange butter cake laced with marzipan and topped with orange icing packed a flavour punch that I was not expecting. The icing was pleasantly crumbly and the cake had a lovely texture and excellent, full flavour.

There were so many things on that menu that I would have liked to try. House made pierogi for starters, Babka, Salt stick with pulled pork and coleslaw, plump, shiny donuts, a Reuben sandwich and sauerkraut soup.  The prices were very reasonable with bagels starting at 60 cents, Profiteroles for $2 and breakfast bagels from $3 to $8.50.

I am told this is excellent Polish food and I would have to agree.
