If the hype is to be believed, it’s the pastry worth flying to Melbourne for. Lune’s classic beurre croissants were dubbed “the finest you will find anywhere in the world” by The New York Times in 2016. A bold claim, perhaps, but not unfounded if the endless queues outside its three stores are to be believed. Now after much back and forth over the last five years, Kate Reid’s Melbourne establishment has finally come to Sydney. Lune Sydney has found its permanent home at the historic Lune’s flagship Sydney store has found its home at the historic Rosebery Engine Yards and in a sweet surprise, a second outpost has also opened in Martin Place, launched on Monday, December 9.
Lune Sydney
Currently, Lune also operates a warehouse space in Fitzroy, a second store in Melbourne’s CBD, and a location in Brisbane that debuted last year. And now Sydney is finally getting a taste of the action. The new store in Roseberry mirrors the industrial vibe of the flagship in Fitzroy, bringing the signature Lune experience to the city.
In addition to Lune’s perfectly crisp, flaky, and buttery croissants, Sydneysiders can look forward to incredible monthly specials. Previous offerings have included the Iced Vovo Cruffin and Carrot Cake Croissants. Personally, I’m a fan of the traditional flaky croissant, which remains one of Lune’s most popular items on the menu.
Find the Roseberry store at 15/151 Dunning Ave, Rosebery, and the Martin Place store at 1 Elizabeth St. Jump across to the Lune Croissanterie website for a peek at what to expect.
The wait has been long but it’s been worth it.
