About Tarte Bakery & Cafe

Tarte Bakery & Cafe turns the Burleigh strip into an essential morning stop, turning out golden viennoiserie, loaded bagels, and well-pulled espresso. The almond croissants arrive dense and crumbly in the right spots, while the flaky ham and cheese croissant melts cheese and chives through every layer. Savory eaters split avocado and tomato bagels or dig into a beef and cheese pie with serious crust. Those on the run bypass seated brunch queues via a dedicated takeaway window with its own espresso machine, while anyone with time to spare claims an outdoor seat under the veranda to finish a triple chocolate cookie in the morning sun.

  • Artisanal Viennoiserie: Almond croissants baked dense and crumbly, paired with savory ham and cheese croissants layered with melted cheese and fresh chives.
  • Dedicated Takeaway Counter: A dedicated exterior takeaway station equipped with its own coffee machine keeps morning runs moving without seated brunch waits.
  • Veranda Dining: Calm veranda seating catches the morning sun for leisurely catch-ups over beef and cheese pies and loaded bagels.

Why Burleigh locals and visitors choose Tarte Bakery & Cafe for morning treats, quick pickups, and relaxed gatherings.

  • Artisanal Pastries and Savory Pies

    Baking begins early with authentic flaky crusts, rich fillings, and fresh whole bagels crafted from scratch.

    Adored the Beef & Cheese Pie - one of the best we’ve ever had. Almond croissant had a fantastic flavour and was quite dense.

  • Freshly Baked Treats and Warm Croissants

    House-crafted morning pastries and artisan sweets are baked fresh daily, pairing rich layers with warm beverages.

    The coffee is great, and the chocolate croissants are to die for. The other pastries and cakes are probably just as good, but the chocolate croissants, I arrived early enough to have mine still warm, yum.

    Generous alfresco seating under the veranda and trees creates a breezy setting for morning meetups and casual dining.

    Best of all, there was outdoor veranda seating, and with no wind, the calm atmosphere was absolutely perfect.
