One of the newest additions to Leederville’s food and drink scene, Cafe Nari is a charming, family-owned business serving up some of the city’s most unique baked goods. From matcha croissants to pork belly banh mi croissants, its menu items are anything but ordinary.

While you’re there, why not indulge in some of TImber’s other new menu items? A new avo smash, vanilla french toast, a pina colada pudding — the possibilities (and deliciousness) are endless.

Zonts Bakehouse, Northbridge
Zonts Bakehouse first launched its take on the ‘crookie’ as a limited edition special for the Easter long weekend. But the pastry was so popular that it’s been added to the menu indefinitely.
The ‘crookie’ is available in-store every day until sold out (and spoiler alert: they tend to go quickly!). Fortunately, you can secure yours ahead of time by ordering via the bakery’s website. Orders must be placed before 11:59am for next-day pickup.
