About Bourkies

BOURKIE’S BAKEHOUSE is a country style retail and wholesale bakery cafe. Established in 1989, the Woodend business specialises in Cakes, Breads, Pastries and beverages. The bakery is renowned for special occasion and old-fashioned cakes, and our multiple award-winning Vanilla Slice.

Eat-in and takeaway services are provided, with a steady daily trade in breakfasts, lunches and morning/afternoon teas. The business operates seven days a week and weekends are consistently busy.

An Animated Display featuring three bakers at work is a clear winner with children and other customers. It is part of our identity.

Bourkies is built on the belief that good quality products will not let competition from supermarkets and bread franchises upset business success and growth.

We serve traditional favourites but happily introduce more contemporary flavours to our menu, experiment with new products and allow customer preferences to guide us.

The bakery is air-conditioned and seats 38. Outside patrons are sheltered from the elements, with a clear blind not detracting from the outlook towards Mt Macedon. We cater for all types of functions.

Our customers return from far and wide for many reasons. The most faithful and astute among them are members of our Pie Muncher Club and carry a Loaf Lovers Loyalty Card. The Pie club offers a free pie with every sixth pie purchased, while the Loaf card also offers a free sixth purchase of bread.
