Lebanese & Middle Eastern bakeries in Melbourne

Good to know

Lebanese bakeries – often called “pizza bakeries” or “pie bakeries” – are a fixture of Sydney’s south-west and Melbourne’s north. The wood-fired or deck oven turns out manoush topped with za’atar and oil, cheese and sujuk pies, lahm bi ajeen, spinach triangles and fresh flatbread, often for a few dollars each.

This page also covers Syrian, Iraqi and other Middle Eastern bakeries and sweet shops, where you’ll find baklava, knafeh and ma’amoul. The list is built from each shop’s name and the details recorded in open map data. If a specific requirement matters (allergies, certification), call the shop before you go.
