A.P House (A.P Bakery)

I absolutely love the pistachio flan! The flavor is rich and nutty, with a nice hint of saltiness that makes it so addictive. The avocado bagel and salad are fresh and well-balanced, simple but satisfying. The pound cake, though, is a bit too sweet for me. Anyway, it’s a good place for breakfast,

Overrated. First off, the ordering staff rushed us, even though it was our first time here. No recommendations, no patience—just pressure to order fast. The other staff were nice, but that first impression wasn’t great. Now, onto the food and drinks. We tried: 🥯 Three Milks Bombolini – way too sweet, I could barely eat it. 🥧 Chicken Curry Pie – so salty I had to spit it out. 🥮 Salted Pistachio & Rhubarb Flan – the only one that was edible, but I only ate the berry part because that’s all I could handle. 🥤 Yuzu & Sparkling Water – tasted like plain sparkling water, nothing special. Everything was overpriced for what it was. My friends and I usually aren’t that picky, but even they didn’t enjoy it. We forced ourselves to finish the pastries because they were so expensive, but we wouldn’t come back. Maybe other menu items are better, but if you’re planning to visit because it’s viral online, lower your expectations.

AP is really popular, take the elevator upstairs and on the rooftop you will be greeted with some umbrellas and outside chairs and the unmistakable aroma of pastry. Generally on the weekend it is quite busy and if you want a table you have to line up and get a buzzer. Then order your food in which you need to line up again and wait to be seated. The pastry there is honestly amazing and super flaky. This review is based on the food pictured and it was great. The bread on my avocado toast was fresh and crusty and the avocado portion was generous- loved the pesto on top as well. My friend’s lamb brisket was moist and full of flavour. Service was attentive despite how busy the place was. The coffee was great with good flavour. Highly recommend

A friend highly recommended this spot, so I was keen to check it out. It’s perched on the rooftop of an old English-style hotel and absolutely packed with people—definitely a popular place! I heard great things about their pastries, so I went for the plain croissant, but honestly, it left me disappointed. The upside? Their coffee really surprised me—it was excellent! Maybe their brunch is what shines here? Not sure, but I’d swing by again for the coffee if I’m in the area. The pastries, though, didn’t quite hit the mark for me.

A charming rooftop cafe tucked away in the CBD, offering delicious pastries, lots dessert options and excellent coffee and drinks. It's the perfect spot to enjoy a light meal in the sunshine, with friendly and fast service from the team. Highly recommended and will visit again whenever i am back in Sydney.

A.P. Bakery offers a delightful experience with its fresh flavors and welcoming atmosphere. The butchers lunch was a standout, featuring tender pork with the right blend of savory and tangy notes, all balanced by a perfectly chewy bagel. The coffee was also excellent—rich, aromatic, and brewed just right to pair with the meal. The staff were friendly and attentive, adding to the warm ambiance. Overall, A.P. Bakery provides a fantastic casual dining experience that’s ideal for breakfast or lunch. Highly recommended

A.P. House Bakery Review – A Delightful Experience! My friends and I had the pleasure of visiting A.P. House Bakery, and it was such a wonderful experience! The atmosphere was incredible, making it the perfect spot to enjoy a relaxing brunch. We definitely recommend going when it’s not raining, as the seating is primarily outdoors. However, if the weather isn’t ideal, you can always check out the downstairs café, Paramount Coffee Project. I ordered a large cappuccino and the Turkish eggs with garlic bread, and let me tell you—it was to die for! Hands down, one of the best dishes I’ve ever had. The pastries were also remarkable, with a great selection to choose from. The customer service was lovely, adding to the overall positive experience. One minor downside, though, is the restroom situation. In the upstairs area where A.P. Bakery is located, there’s only one female/disability bathroom, while men have a dedicated restroom. If you need to use the main women’s restroom, you have to go all the way down to the lower floor, down a hallway, and to the very end, which is quite inconvenient, especially since the café is three levels up. Meanwhile, men have restrooms on both levels, which is more convenient for them. That said, this small inconvenience didn’t overshadow our overall experience. The setting was beautiful, and the pastries were exceptional. We highly recommend this spot for anyone looking to enjoy fantastic food and a great atmosphere!

I think the highlight of this cafe/ Bakery are its pastries. I had the pastries for takeaway but the macadamia, thyme and honey croissant was such a unique and delicious flavour pairing. However the let down was the Turkish eggs. Too much oil and it was accompanied by overly greasy garlic bread. Do not order this if you visit 😬. Other than that beautiful pastries and great rooftop cafe. 😊
