Rise Artisan Bakery

Rise Artisan Bakery in Nairne is owned by Hills locals Katharine and James Katsarelias, who also operate Uraidla Bakery. So if you see double when looking at the pastries, you’re not imagining it – Uraidla supplies most of the baked goods here.

Set in a beautiful old former schoolhouse and country church, Rise has all the elements that make a good bakery (shelves brimming with fresh loaves; a counter full of cakes, croissants and other pastries) but it invites you to linger longer, with retail offerings of vintage clothes, jams and preserves, homewares, bags of fruit and cut flowers.
