Melbourne’s Original Lebanese bakery Since 1992

From a humble family-run bakery on Sydney Road to a citywide culinary icon, A1 Bakery continues to serve authentic Lebanese flavours with heart and heritage.

A1 Bakery began in 1992 as a small, family-run bakery on Sydney Road, Brunswick. Specialising in traditional Lebanese breads, pizzas, pies, and groceries, it quickly became a local favourite — filling a gap in Melbourne’s food scene with its warm hospitality and authentic flavours.

By 1997, demand had grown so rapidly that A1 opened its own manufacturing plant to supply its signature breads across the city. A second location followed in Dandenong in 2002, winning Best Shop the following year.

Now with stores in Brunswick, Fitzroy and Highpoint, A1 continues to serve fresh Lebanese food made daily, alongside a curated grocery selection. Though the business has grown, it remains proudly independent, family-led, and fiercely committed to quality, consistency, and community.
