As you approach Baroque, you can't avoid peering into the open plan patisserie kitchen where white-hatted Patissiers blend, mix, bake and beautify a glorious range of French pastries.

Whether spending a day at The Rocks Market, shopping for gifts or just strolling around Circular Quay, anyone is welcome to come and view the alchemy in the a buzzing exhibition-style kitchen and Jean-Michel (head of production).

Diners at the Bistro can choose from a spectacular range of macarons, individual cakes, tartlets and desserts all hand-made onsite.

Baroque is owned and operated by the Charkos family from iconic Sydney patisserie, La Renaissance Patisserie and has become the epicentre of production, introducing a greater selection of cakes, tartlets, breads and other fine pastries.

Renowned in The Rocks, and indeed further afield, La Renaissance has impressed all with an array of delicate, handmade pastries for over 35 years.
