What can be better than the aroma of freshly baked bread and pastry wafting in the air? In the old days, some love their hot bread so much that they had to run into a local bakery and waited for a new batch of baked goods to come.
If you want to enjoy those buttery beauties with the same eagerness, visit a bakery in this list and give your inner child the right to choose an item that make her/his eyes twinkle.
Killiney Road smells of freshly baked pastries and loaves every day because of the town’s best bakery. Award-winning baker, Eran Mayer, makes Artisan Boulangerie Co. a magical place as he bakes lots of wonderful French goodies in the kitchen. Some of the best-sellers include baguettes, French toast, sourdoughs, croissants, and beef bourguignon pie. Find out more about this bakery below.
MENU: ABC’s menu is more extensive compared to other boulangeries on the island. Only because it has full English and French breakfast as well as daily specials, salad and soup besides the traditional French loaves and pastries on the counter. So, the bakery essentially caters to early birds and brunch goers who are big on breakfast and desserts.
