The Blonde Baker

Great little spot to enjoy a coffee, stunning views and a whole range of delicious cabinet food. Sausage rolls, Pies, croissants, cakes. Highly recommend the sausage roll.

Friendly local service. They’ve set up a lovely area to enjoy the sunshine. Toys for kids.

Dog Friendly as lots of nice outdoors seats.

What a gorgeous hidden gem! Overlooking the river in the stunning village of Tumbulgum. Have just enjoyed a very tasty chicken avo and cheese toastie washed down by a great hot choccie. It's set in the grounds of the Church and it's dog friendly (there's plenty of seating and a lovely lawn). I was tempted by the baked goodies but will save them for next visit! 😉

First time I visited this gorgeous place today. I wanted to meet a friend in a place with a beautiful outlook which is surprisingly hard to find in the Tweed! The gentleman was so friendly, with a gorgeous white cat Tiara that greeted us. We sat under a beautiful old Ted Cedar tree in the Church grounds. Just a wonderful atmosphere with excellent coffee and a Persian tart that was among the best. I'll be back!!

Good coffee, delicious totally home made pastries and pies, very reasonably priced and friendly service overlooking the river. This new business really deserves your support.

Delicious home made bakery goods. Especially the beef pies and croissants! Super friendly owner and staff, and an array of local goodies to purchase. A little local gem.

Glorious home made cakes, great value, exceptional coffee and all with a glorious view.

Terrific location, coffee and the best ‘Portuguese’ tart I have enjoyed in a long time!

Beautiful location by the river and really well laid out in the church garden.

A great spot to stop for coffee and a snack with the beautiful view over the river.

Amazing fresh baked food, lots of GF, excellent friendly service and great views.

This place is a gift from god. Their almond croissants are the best within 300km (I've tested all the fancy ones on the GC and they can't compete). The sourdough is epic, and they have the most amazing pies. I've tried 30 different things (their bakery stuff changes with inspiration) and it's all been epic. The menu is great too, and the view and set up is relaxing and with lovely river views. Highly recommended!!

Great coffee, awesome egg and bacon roll. Prompt and friendly service. All set in the picturesque town of Tumbulgum. Good to have a dog friendly cafe.

This is a hidden gem. The service is way beyond the call. Great food nothing is to much trouble . And adding exciting new dishes all the time. And of course the beautiful view of the river. Divert and miss the roadworks.

Stopped in with the kids on a drive through the tweed.

Cheeseburger was excellent and the coffee was great. When we're back through this way we will make this our go to brew stop.

Beautiful little quaint bakery. Right on the river. Ladies are lovely, and the baked goods and hot pies are awesome. Ask for a baby chino for the little ones and you get a very special one. Menu is diverse and alluring. Highly recommend for a breakie, lunch for arvo stop. Coffee was brillaint! Well done The Blonde Baker.

Amazing location, amazing food, amazing coffee and amazing service. Just perfect 🤌

I would definately recommend you stop by The Blonde Baker and try one of their chunky steak curry pies, in my opinion it's the best curry pie on the planet and is by far the best I have ever tasted.
