I am a bread nerd. This place does pretty good stuff. I got a small batard, and ate it with Maggie Beer's pheasant farm pate. Thick caramelised crust, open crumb texture, chewy, but not too heavy. Not as sour as I would like it, nor as flavoursome. The crust got a bit too chewy after most of a day, and...

Description: OUR HISTORY IN FRANCE. The history of SANCHO is the story of one family's love of good food and passionate commitment to the best traditional baking methods over more than 100 years. In 1904, Albin Sancho opened the first Sancho bakery in the medieval town of Lodeve, in the south of France. When Albin died in 1936, his son Albert took over the bakery. He later purchased the shop next door as the business grew and then another...In 1967, when Albert died, his son Jean-Pierre took over, he had trained in all aspects of patisserie and baking. When he took control of SANCHO, he maintained the traditional, labor-intensive methods of bread-making that had been handed down through the family since the 19th Century, deliberately bucking the trend of factory mass-production, and ALWAYS insisting on the best quality ingredients. Jean-Pierre Sancho still operates today from the Bakery his grandfather Albin started in 1904, he has opened several other bakeries that bear his name.In 2009, Jean-Pierre Sancho passed his knowledge to 3 young French men who now call Australia home.OUR HISTORY IN AUSTRALIAThanks to our customers, our staff and our suppliers, our first year in Australia has been better than we could have imagined. In 2010, We opened the first Jean-Pierre Sancho bakery in Australia, it was the first French Boulangerie Patisserie in Perth, at 878 Hay Street. At the beginning of 2011, we opened our second shop at 111, St Georges Terrace, Perth. Shortly after, Neil Perry approached us to supply our bread to his Perth Rockpool Restaurant, We now supply bread to some of WA’s best restaurants. In April 2011, we joined the Buy West Eat Best program to promote local produce, both as a wholesaler and a retailer. In June 2011, we were awarded Best Coffee Shop in Perth by the Restaurant and Catering Association. Our Macarons and our croissants were praised as the best 3 in Perth by the Sunday Times. In August 2011, we won Best Bakery in Australia and went on Live National Television, Channel 7’s Sunrise program. In September 2011, we will open our third shop at 270, William Street, Northbridge

i've popped into Sanchos a few times for cakes/croissants. The service is always good, the cakes are always delciious (heaps better than the cheap Mozart cakes from other places).

Lunch was OK. Limited choices for baguettes and thickly buttered. Lots of choice for desserts. Coffee was OK only, nothing special. It may have got some awards, but it had nothing to make us rush back.

My sister and I visited the St Georges Tce café in mid-December to celebrate her birthday, after my having read reviews of their being rated best patisserie in Australia in 2011 & 2012, so expectations were high. Upon arrival I walked in and what I saw in the cabinets impressed me, I regretted eating breakfast!
We both ordered a toasted...

As regular customers, we were deeply disturbed by our bitterly disappointing experience this morning.
Having ordered two croissants and coffees, as well as an egg and bacon panini, we were given a table number.
The croissants and coffees arrived promptly. Although we did not immediately realise, the waitress who delivered the order then removed the table number.
After not receiving...

Sandwiches come in mini-baguettes. The coffee is ok but not that good. They are all done out in French cafe style and looked interesting when they first opened but after a couple of visits I quickly got bored and moved on.

clean kitchen and that's where it ends. staff are typically bad as is most in Perth. that's what you get for hiring backpackers to run yr counters. I tell you if I felt as strong and passionate as we are ment to believe from what we read on their web site, then why would we hire cheap backpackers for front...
