Tarts Anon

Came here on international coffee day and got a free coffee flan tart with an order of coffee. Also had two of the monthly special tarts which took about 20 minutes after opening time before they were available. The flat white was mildly strong and well balanced which paired well with the sweet tarts. The coffee flan tart was decent; quite flaky but didn't like the inner layer of the crust which seems to be slightly undercooked. However both the matcha strawberry and the hazelnut tiramisu tart were tasty and not too sweet.

I tried Tarts Anon’s special pandan coconut tart and it was amazing. The pandan had a subtle flavour that worked beautifully with the coconut, and the balance of flavours was spot on. The base was perfect, exactly what you’d want in a tart. I also tried the sticky date earl grey. I’m usually not a big fan of earl grey as it can be overly fragrant and almost soapy, but here it was done just right. The earl grey was delicate, complimenting the sticky date without overpowering it. I also had their ube foam matcha - the ube foam itself had a nice flavour, but the matcha was a bit average. The quality of the matcha used wasn’t amazing.

Fantastic tarts as always. The pistachio cream in the pistachio saint honore was just a bit bitter but other than that it was perfect and had the perfect crust. The raspberry jasmine tart was also divine, with the jasmine flavour shining through and working well with the raspberry. The ube passionfruit tart was nice and had a yummy but powerful passionfruit flavour that overpowered the ube a bit. Coffee was unfortunately disappointing for me, with my citrus cold brew tasting like medicine. Also got a soy matcha latte that was not bad, but would probably prefer a stronger matcha flavour and creamier milk texture. Still giving 5 stars because this is a tart shop.

Tried almost all the tarts — all winners! Every slice is generous, rich, and made with care. From fruity to creamy to chocolatey, each tart has its own charm. If you’re a dessert lover, this place is a must-visit!

Stopped in for a quick afternoon pick me up and boy did it hit the spot! The apple and elderflower tart was so delicately balanced with the sweet and slightly tart flavours while the chocolate and caramel was rich, creamy and gooey in all the right ways! Definitely go here if tarts and desserts are your thing!

The Smoked Pecan & Butterscotch Tart is unreal—perfect balance of sweet, nutty, and smoky in a buttery crust. Easily one of the best desserts in Melbourne. Can’t wait to try more!

Delicious tarts! Full of flavor, great texture and not too sweet. And the staff is super nice. The place is very charming. Highly recommend.

Tarts Anon is one of those places that completely lives up to the hype. The tarts here are on another level — beautifully made, rich without being heavy, and absolutely packed with flavour. You can tell every tart is made with care, and the flavour combinations are creative but never over the top. The classic flavours (like lemon or chocolate) are perfect in their simplicity, while the seasonal specials are where they really shine — things you’d never think of, but somehow they just work. The pastry itself is always flawless: crisp, buttery, and the kind you can only get from people who know exactly what they’re doing. The shop has a simple, understated vibe that lets the tarts do all the talking. The staff are friendly and clearly passionate about what they’re making, which adds to the whole experience. It’s not the cheapest pastry in town, but the quality is so high that it feels worth every cent. They’re the kind of tarts you want to bring to a dinner party or keep just for yourself at home with a coffee — they always feel a bit special. Tarts Anon is easily one of the best pastry spots in Melbourne, and once you’ve tried them it’s hard to go back to anything else.
