Correction (5 October 2026): an earlier version of this page listed places and details we could not stand behind. It has been rewritten from scratch: every place below was confirmed at two independent sources on 5 October 2026.
Short list, honest list. This page covers two bakeries near Kalkallo, and both sit in Merrifield City in Mickleham, the shopping centre at 270 Donnybrook Rd. We could not confirm a bakery inside Kalkallo itself, so we are not padding.
Each place was checked against two independent sources: its own site or the brand’s pages, the centre’s directory at merrifieldcity.com.au, and OpenStreetMap. Hours below are the centre directory’s, and we say so each time.
The quick picks
| If you’re after | Head to | Where |
|---|---|---|
| Manakeesh and Lebanese baking | Zet & Zaatar Bakery (Mickleham: Merrifield) | 270 Donnybrook Rd, Mickleham |
| Cakes, savouries and cupcakes | Ferguson Plarre’s Bakehouse (Merrifield City) | Shop K003, Merrifield City, 270 Donnybrook Rd, Mickleham |
Zet & Zaatar Bakery (Mickleham: Merrifield) — 270 Donnybrook Rd, Mickleham VIC 3064
This is the Lebanese-style bakery of the pair. Its site lists manakeesh, described as freshly baked and topped with za’atar, cheese or your choice of fillings. The same site lists a breakfast spread built around freshly baked bread.
The centre directory at merrifieldcity.com.au lists the shop as open seven days, from 7:00 am to 4:00 pm. We could not find prices for this store, so none are printed here. Bread first, then decide.
Go for: the manakeesh, which the bakery’s own site describes as freshly baked and topped with za’atar, cheese or your favourite fillings.
Ferguson Plarre’s Bakehouse (Merrifield City) — Shop K003, Merrifield City, 270 Donnybrook Rd, Mickleham VIC 3064
The second bakery is the Ferguson Plarre’s shop inside Merrifield City. The brand’s page title lists birthday cakes, savouries and cupcakes, which tells you the range before you walk in.
The centre directory lists it open from 7:00 am, closing at 5:00 pm most days and 6:00 pm on Thursday and Friday. We could not load the brand’s store locator, so the shop is confirmed through the centre directory and OpenStreetMap, and we found no prices to print. Check before a cake order.
The order: a cake or a box of savouries, going by the categories the brand’s own page names.
