organic sourdough is best around - not full of air holes! Also good coffee and range of pastries and lunch food items. Don't be in a rush though as can be a little slow, open early.
There is another outlet on Regent St just near the Police Station but they usually run out of bread and rolls by 10am so suggest you go to the actual bakery opp Redfern Park.

This is one of my favourite breakfast, brunch and dinner restaurants nearby (long walk or short drive) with great french food and fabulous condiments (for separate sale). Mid to upper pricing (set menu dinners with wine) great value.
