The croissants here are on the crispier side, with a delightful flaky texture. The almond croissant has a unique touch of honey, making it a bit sweeter than usual, but in a lovely way. I also tried a savoury croissant called the “Bear Crawl”—shaped like a bear paw and filled with salmon. Such a creative and thoughtful combination! The almond cookie was also delicious—more of a soft cookie, but still with a nice crisp edge. The pastries here definitely stand out from other places; they have their own unique character. No wonder it’s always busy. Worth a try!
One of the best bakery and is well hidden! Love the interesting baked goods and some specials that they rotate around. I love their pork and apple sausage roll very generous serve of pork and apple in it!. I also bought a savoury danish as well packed full of flavours!
There was a long line, but it was totally worth it! I’m not a local, so maybe I picked the wrong time to try it for the first time – but I’m so glad I did. I literally fell in love with the grapefruit croissant – absolutely divine! The coffee was great too. I’ll definitely be coming back again.
Riser has rapidly become an absolute institution in Toowong - and it deserves the flowers.nnPastries and coffee are always on point, and the service and setting is stellar.nnI hesitate letting you in on this secret - but their sweet corn, leek and pecorino quiche is the best thing on the whole menu.
One might assume that this is a cafe, but such an assumption would be disingenuous.nnThis is a bakery. This is a bakery that just so happens to serve coffee on the side.nnThe batch coffee I had was certainly a batch coffee, if a bit on the weak side, but really the drink is just there for set dressing - what you’re really here for are the pastries.nnWhat I had was thus; a pork, apple, and fennel sausage roll with homemade relish, and a quince danish.nnFirstly, the sausage roll. I will admit that I do not have much experience with sausage rolls; mention a sausage roll to me and I will automatically assume a sausage, casing and all, within a pastry. However, I will gladly admit that this sausage roll was good. Very good. The pastry is crisp and substantial without being overbearing, and the meat is flavourful and not at all dried out - both of which pair well with the tomato relish, which is light and not at all obtrusive to the flavour of the main dish itself.nnThen, the quince danish. I will also admit that I have not had quince before - it simply doesn’t appear in the market where I am from. What I did get, however, was a nice crisp layered pastry, with a hint of caramelisation on the top around the fruit. The fruit itself had been cooked till nice and soft, placed atop a hint of cream that helped lighten the palate. The layers of pastry flaked apart readily but did not crumble into disparate pieces - they have their own structural integrity, a rigidity to them which only enhances the experience when you do eventually bite into those layers and feel them shatter in your mouth.nnMake no mistake, these might be some of the best pastries I’ve had in my life. The common fashion would be that of a cafe that outsources its pastries to a third party; this place does the opposite, choosing to hyper-focus on its baked goods, and it certainly delivers.nntl;dr: passable coffee, but who cares when the pastries are bloody amazing?
