It seems the buttery, flaky Gods have answered our hungry prayers: In news that just dropped, Melbourne's famous bakery, Lune, is set to open two Sydney stores. News broke in March that the first-ever Sydney store was opening in Darlinghurst in the new Oxford and Foley precinct sometime this year. Now, we’ve heard the purveyors of those golden beauties will set up a second shop in Martin Place. Croissant before work? Hell yeah.
While we don’t have an exact opening date for Lune Sydney number two, we know it will be in 2024. The banging bakery and café will be found at the new Sydney Metro Martin Place precinct, which is currently being transformed into a dining and retail wonderland.
In case you missed it, Lune Croissanterie, which is run by brother-sister team Kate and Cameron Reid, have been heralded as some of the best in the world, with fans queuing around the block at their Fitzroy and South Brisbane shops. In fact, New York Times food critic Oliver Strand said the croissants “may be the finest you will find anywhere in the world.”
Now it's finally time for Sydney to have its own taste of those unbelievable layered goods. Of course, we'll keep you updated about opening dates.
