A1 Bakery

The 38 Best Restaurants in Melbourne | Eater

"This family-owned Lebanese bakery in Brunswick has been going strong for more than 30 years. A favorite of students and locals, the place — a veritable institution around these parts — is as unfussy as it is sublime. Prices start at 2 Australian dollars for just-out-of-the-oven za’atar pizza covered in thyme, oregano, sumac, sesame seeds, and olive oil, and don’t go over 18 Australian dollars for generous platters of chicken tawouk and falafel. In between, you’ll find a thick pie filled with hunks of haloumi, fresh tabbouleh, and ful medames. While you’re there, grab a bag of freshly baked flatbreads to go." - Audrey Bourget
