Franquette, Tamborine Mountain

There’s something about being up on the mountain on a cool, crisp morning that makes us crave a good croissant. Luckily, Franquette – one of Tamborine’s most beloved bakeries – always hits the spot.

Tarte Bakery, Burleigh

The French-bistro-inspired décor is almost as delicious as the pastries themselves. If you haven’t already, pay a visit to their Currumbin Creek-side venue – it’s even more beautiful than their leafy Burleigh location.

Aux Fines Bouches, Burleigh

If you’re looking for fancy French desserts, tarts or gateaux, this is the place for you. Aux Fines Bouches translates to ‘picky eaters’, so you know their standards are high.
