Daci & Daci Bakers

Head over to Daci and Daci when the markets are on to avoid the massive crowds — or anytime if you just want some delicious pastries and a mean coffee!
Best bubble and squeak that I’ve ever had — who would’ve thought it would come with salad on the side? Not too greasy, and still packed with flavor. Eggs perfectly cooked!
The croissant was the best I’ve had in a long time, and the best of both worlds: crunchy on the outside and buttery and moist on the inside.
Make sure you order at the counter as this can be confusing for first time visitors :)
If you aren’t full from your brunch, don’t forget to try one of their desserts — can you say original?! This café must be one of Hobart’s finest!

I can see why this place has such good reviews. Huge selection of pastries and excellent coffee. Yes it’s a busy place, but it’s simply because it is the best around. Give it a go for sure.

Delicious salads, pastries and sweets! Some of the cakes are too sweet for my liking but that’s just me the concord is amazing, as is the chickpea and pumpkin salad. The décor is beautiful too, especially the old fashioned light fitting. A must try for anyone visiting hobart

Best café in Hobart on my visit. Fabulous selection of croissants, pastries, deserts. Grab a frittata and a wine and do some people watching. Can’t recall if they sold beer, but they did have a wine selection. Coz…

Very nice food for a good price. I recommend this to people who want a quick and not to filling meal. All of the food is made on site including the breads and pastries. Highly recommended.

Great bakery — our favorite in Hobart. Luckily its not too close to home or work — there are a lot of irresistible pastries, cakes, and savory goodies in there…
Coffee is good, service is friendly. It gets pretty busy, especially around lunchtime. It can be hard to get in with a group. And, like everywhere else in Tasmania, the hours are somewhat limited (no evening hours, closed on Sunday…)

Wide range of yummy danishes and escargots, which are not very sugary as these look like. Excellent chai lattee. Skilful baristas with very nice coffee latte art, which is a main reason for me to come here for coffee.
As an European style-​bakery shop, they have croissants here. But I should give you an alert that the croissants are very sweet, which is different from the traditional ones, I think. So if you are like me, not a fan of sweet treats, you should keep this in mind when ordering the croissants here. Actually, I could eat half croissant only since it was too sugary.

Yummmmm!!! Amazing food, topped off with a great ambiance. Very cosy spot for a bite and a coffee or tea. Perfect to squirrel away with a book or catch up with friends, especially the winter. Although you really can’t go wrong in any season…
If going on a weekend, you might need to time it right to get a table but it’ll be worth the wait.

Soul soothing European baked goods. Perfect to combat the freezing cold August morning when we visited.
In true Europeam/​Parisian style the staff were mildly stand offish and looking a little rushed. This wasn’t helped by a rather large influx of martial arts competitors (an issue across town). Not to mention the in vogue attitude of up pricing for the joy of eating in.
We ordered breakfast and my toast arrived all fruity. Seems the staff didn’t explain that I could have non fruity toast if I wanted. The croque Monsieur arrived perfectly toasted and with salad. Little bit odd for a breakfast dish.
Hot chocolate and coffee arrived in a timely manner.
The highlight was the Portuguese custard tart that I devoured. For breakfast. Soft butter melting in mouth, creamy vanilla custard topped with a sprinkle of cinnamon and the happy tears of fairies.
A visit to hobart isn’t compete without a sneakily visit to Daci & Daci
Parking around here seemed a little limited but to be expected in the area.

The worst thing about Daci & Daci is that it’s too close to where I work! Very consistent food quality and excellent coffee. The pastries are to die for.

Good pastries, and close to the docks. Great espresso. Service was brusque, and not very pleasant — felt like customers weren’t welcome.

Great to see more cosmopolitan places like Daci & Daci popping up in Hobart. Also, nice to see some healthy competition for the likes of Jackman & McRoss. Lovely range of pastries and other sweet treats (almond croissants and danishes are divine and the chocolate brownie is to die for) and decent coffee. Service was a little slow, but that may have been more my impatience and the impairing 43 degree temperature. On a warm day, try grabbing a seat on the patio outside so you can people watch on Salamanca.

Daci & Daci Bakers is a European-​style bakery located next to Hobart’s popular Salamanca Square. For breakfast, they offer croissants, pain au chocolate, and various danishes that are baked that morning. Other options included various pies (beef burgundy) and tarts (mushroom).
I had a croque monsieur (I think it was $ 9.5 or $ 11?), which was made with their homemade bread. Although I’ve had more authentic croque monsieur, this one was quite tasty even though it looked more like a toastie than a croque monsieur. The pain au chocolate was delicious with the chocolate slightly melted on the inside.
With good coffee and friendly service, this is a great establishment to grab a light meal. For lunch, they offer gourmet sandwiches that include smoked salmon and tuna salad.

A European-​style bakery in the heart of Hobart, just minutes walk from the CBD and Salamanca. I ended up here on a mid-​week PM, pre-​Christmas and it was super quiet, making it perfect for a spot of lunch and afternoon tea, combined with some work. There is plenty of seating inside, and a small amount outside, on-​street, and on any sunny day I can imagine this is a wonderful spot to eat, beside Parliament House. The confectionery and pastries looked really good behind the counter, though the service was a tad lacking (may they be forgiven or only opening recently), and really you couldn’t go wrong across the board. I had a pisaladiere (a first for me) and it was super tasty, with a healthy dose of salad. This is a nice place to hit-​up when shopping on Collins et al, without having to schlep all the way to the quarry or the pier and beyond for food.
