Incredible pastries. Perfect lamination combined with excellent butter - it’s hard to go wrong! I might be biased as a cardamom bun is my favourite pastry and this laminated take on them is really good. Plus, a butter tasting menu?! Yes please. We had no issue with waits or selection at all, around 9AM. Other reviews seem very negative about that, but this is still a soft opening and they’re dealing with huge demand so cut them some slack!

Such a great bakery! The line gets very long, but every pastry I have tried has been totally worth it! I love the sausage roll, shakshuka danish, and the ham and cheese croissant. The team was excellent!

Truth is this placed has been way hyped. I live a 10 minute walk away but don't plan on coming back until they have their act together. You wait in a really long line only to get to the front and have one or two options (for me it was the sausage croissant and baguette)... not sure why anyone would drive all the way to really have no options.

Visited Matilda’s Bakery today and arrived around 7:45 AM, with about 10 people already in line. By 8 AM, the line was wrapped around the building, which is pretty wild! The building itself is beautiful, with a clean, minimal aesthetic, and the pastry selection looked incredible. I ordered the ham and cheese croissant, chocolate chip cookie, and passionfruit Danish. I was debating between the croissant and sausage roll, and the person bagging my order recommended the croissant because it had more flavor. She wasn’t wrong! It was delicious and packed with flavor, although noticeably oily from all the butter. I also ordered a single shot of espresso, which was decent but nothing special. I was surprised to see the barista only place my cup under one spout while the other shot went straight down the drain. As a coffee lover, that seemed unnecessarily wasteful, especially for a new business. Overall, a pretty solid first visit! The pastries are clearly the main attraction. I’d definitely return and give the coffee another shot, perhaps as an iced latte next time.
