About this place
There is a simple pleasure in browsing the lunchtime shelves and choosing something to suit the moment. Bakery Colo-colo is particularly well regarded for its thick, satisfying cutlet sandwich. Other tempting choices include an apple pie with crisp pastry and a croissant filled with sweet red bean paste. Each bread is individually wrapped, making it easy to pick up something to take away.
Coffee and other café drinks make a welcome accompaniment. The hot coffee, made with Ekoda Coffee Roastery's original blend, brings out the flavours of the bakery's savoury breads. Iced café au lait and organic Earl Grey are also available; pair one with a fluffy chiffon cake or bread with fig and walnut for a leisurely tea break.
A ramp at the entrance and a spacious interior make it easy to get around by wheelchair or with a pushchair. There is seating for eating in, too, where you can enjoy the bread and baked treats before or after a stroll around the neighbourhood. Weekday opening hours are relatively short, from 11 to 15:30, and the selection may be limited just after noon. For the widest choice, arrive a little earlier.
