Had a coffee which was awesome. Was ordering a snitzel roll with the lovely lady. But just as she cut the bread, I saw 2 blo flys buzzing in the bain marie where all the condiments are. I quickly cancelled and changed my mind. Might be wise to keep it closed covered . Not the owners fault and staff are lovely. Just need to step up protection of the food. Especially with summer .

My 3 kids get regular lunch orders from this bakery which is normally excellent but last week my son ordered a chicken schnitzel which was cut into half but the chicken was very pink and it was very undercooked. Showed his class teacher and was instructed to dispose of it in the rubbish. I will be making official complaint directly to management as uncooked chicken is not acceptable to serve

This bakery is known for their huge Shnitty (Chicken Schnitzel) rolls. Great value prices are very reasonable. There are also lots of sweet bakery treats, coffee and other hot food. Eat in or take away. No bathroom facilities on site yet some are available close by in the local park. Great vibe with everyone enjoying the food. This is a favorite lunch stop for all the local tradies.

It's been 12 months since my last feast and it is still great. Back then a 5:30 am brekky and there would be 4 or 5 in front of me. Tom got everyone through the till in no time flat. And it was delicious as well as inexpensive. Good to see that food is still delicious and still inexpensive. And Tom still has that beaming smile! …

Come here every once in a while, and honestly it’s the best schnitzel sandwiches I’ve ever had. They always have recommendations on what to put on it, and one time I was a dollar short and they covered it! They truly know how to take care of their customers and make good food. I 100% recommend coming here!!!

Reliably good food and amazed how they can do it for such a great price. If you like food, you'll like AJ's Bakery. A "goto" place for a staple lunch for a great price. Staff are lovely and a lot of customers are known by first name which is always a good sign.

I popped in for some breakfast while waiting for my wife in GESAC, and loved their Steak & Pepper pie ❤️

So happy this place was only.closwd for reno. Neighbourhood friendly place with good service , decent prices for breaky and hard-working owners/crew. This is definitely a local business worth giving support to.

Have been coming here for yearssss and the staff are great (as is the food) and the value is so good! Some bakeries are so expensive so it’s nice to find a good one that is super affordable

Love AJ's mushroom and double cheese omelette on buttery toast.. its not on menu buy ive been ordering & eating weekly for 15 yrs & got it takeaway during harsh Melbourne covid lockdowns

Excellent pork roll with gravy also bacon and eggs....and very affordable I can't remember how long Tom has been here but I know I been dropping in since early 2000's

AJ's does the best sandwiches and hot food you can imagine that is eminently affordable. I love their chicken schnitzel and salad sandwiches …

I’ve been visiting for the last 15 years and I can sincerely say, the quality and value is unbeatable and it’s truly Melbournes hidden gem!

Exceptional value. Been here a few times for the Schnitzel rolls, and the big breakfast. Lots of turnover as there are always customers.

Aj's is the best bakery in Melbourne, so friendly, so cheap, and the food is 10 out of 10. If I could give this bakery 50 stars I would.

Outstanding bakery. Great tasting and affordable food. I love their lemon slices. Could well be the best lemon slices in Melbourne!

A hidden local gem. Very affordable and delicious food. Coming here for a second time and I am sure I will be coming again.

Excellent coffee, fresh salad, great sausage rolls with real puff pastry. Salad sandwich chock full of handcut vegetables.
