Kidd's Cakes and Bakery

Perched on the corner of Cranford Street and Innes Road, in the heart of St Albans, Christchurch sits a kiwi icon, Kidd's Cakes and Bakery. This favourite suburban local has been producing the goods for more than 39 years.

Of course, there's so much more than just those golden oldies here – whatever savoury or sweet treat you're after, you can be sure they're serving it.

Fuel your morning with a hearty plate of free-range eggs, braised mushrooms, bacon, sausages, baked beans, hash browns, and toasted ciabatta. For something quicker, go for a classic bacon buttie with fries or a breakfast bap loaded with grilled sausage, bacon, a fried egg, and HP relish on a toasted bap, served with fries.

Craving something sweet? Enjoy our Blackforest Cherry Pancakes with cherry compote, chocolate sauce, whipped cream, and maple syrup – perfectly paired with a wholesome muesli bowl for a lighter touch.

From their famous 'melted moment' shortbread, or French-influenced pastries and cakes like the Créme Caramel, Charlotte Royal, Viennese Walnut & Pear Schnitte, it's hard to decide on just one treat!

Whether you're grabbing a quick bite, inviting your friends for some cake shopping and brekkie, or just looking to unwind with a great coffee, this is the place to be.
