Tommo's Bakery is a neighbourhood bakery on Ohaupo Road in Melville, Hamilton, holding a 4.2 Google rating, with news and updates posted on its Facebook page. A good New Zealand bakery lives or dies by its pies and its timing: the mince and cheese pie is the usual test, and anything fresh from the oven at opening is worth the early trip, because popular lines tend to sell out before lunch. Regulars learn which days particular breads or sweet treats appear, and they order ahead rather than hope. Bread baked on site is usually labelled as such, while some cabinet items arrive part-baked, so it pays to ask. Melville locals have a bakery of their own on Ohaupo Road, close to the heart of the suburb.
