A neighbourhood bakery and coffee shop on Elizabeth Street in North Hobart, baking breads, pastries, pies, cakes and coffee for breakfast, takeaway and a sit-down on the strip.
About the bakery
Zum Bakery sits at 331 Elizabeth Street in North Hobart, Tasmania — a compact bakery and coffee shop serving the neighbourhood and anyone walking the cafe strip between Hobart and New Town.
Google lists the business as a bakery with dine-in and takeaway. The bakery’s own Facebook page describes it as family trusted breads, a cafe and a coffee shop. Customers come for breakfast, coffee, sourdough, pastries, pies and a counter of cakes and savoury items.
The shop is on Elizabeth Street, the main street of North Hobart, a short walk from well-known neighbours such as Renown Milk Bar at 337 Elizabeth Street and State Cinema at 375 Elizabeth Street. Reviews mention a pleasant store with streetside tables and a small interior — more nook than dining room — so many people grab takeaway.
