The vibrant West Side Place precinct has welcomed a delicious new arrival, Maxi Lune, the latest evolution from Melbourne’s world-famous Lune Croissanterie, has opened its doors this past Saturday, January 31.

Lune has become one of Australia’s most celebrated purveyors of croissants and artisanal pastries, known for its craft, innovation and devoted following. The new Maxi Lune flagship, perched at the foot of The Ritz-Carlton, Melbourne on Lonsdale Street, brings an expansive production bakery, café seating and a tantalising window into the pastry-making experience right into the heart of the precinct.

At around 418 square metres, Maxi Lune features one of the brand’s largest ever kitchens, with the capacity to produce up to 6,000 pastries a day, nearly double the output of its acclaimed Fitzroy location.

Guests can watch pastry chefs at work through the glass-walled “Cube,” enjoy classic favourites like traditional and almond croissants, and savour special seasonal and exclusive pastry creations curated for the new venue.

Maxi Lune’s opening further enriches West Side Place’s thriving retail and dining ecosystem. The precinct already boasts a dynamic mix of food and lifestyle offerings, including:
