Patrick's Boutique Bakery is a hidden gem in Rotorua, perfect for anyone with a sweet tooth or an appreciation for artisanal baking. From the moment you step inside, you can feel the passion Patrick brings to his craft - a passion built over 40 years in the industry, both locally and abroad.

What sets Patrick’s apart is the unwavering commitment to quality. Everything is made on-site using top-notch ingredients, with a focus on traditional techniques. Whether it's a gourmet-filled roll, a flaky pie, or one of the daily-changing pastries, there’s a sense of surprise each day and when Patrick is on a roll, you never know what new creation will pop up! The "Boutique" in the name isn’t just for show, it reflects the care and skill that goes into every product. Patrick has spent decades perfecting his craft, and it shows in the attention to detail, from the crisp layers of his croissants to the silky smooth custards in his tarts.

Speaking of treats, the offerings at Patrick’s are enough to tempt any palate. Signature items like the almond croissant, lemon meringue pie, and mille-feuille keep regulars coming back, while his black forest gateau and vanilla bean cheese tart are crowd favourites. There’s always something new to discover as Patrick lets his creativity shine, making every visit a unique experience.

For Rotorua, Patrick’s Boutique Bakery is more than just a spot to grab a snack - it’s a reminder that baking is an art form. Patrick’s vision is to help people rediscover the joy of properly tasting food and recognizing the difference between something mass-produced and something made from scratch with love and skill. With an open-plan kitchen, customers can watch the magic unfold, making the experience as authentic as the pastries themselves.
