what makes us

Family at heart

The best recipes are passed on through generations. That’s what makes our artisan loaves just right.
From our famous Crunchy Sourdough to our legendary Malted Loaf, our fluffy Croissants and beautiful Pastries, quality is at the heart of what we do.
baked with 96 years of experience

With our roots dating back to 1928, we use nearly a century of experience to create that perfect texture, that crunch, that softness and bake all day long in each shop.
Extended fermentation times ensure flavours can fully develop while creating a loaf that is still light on the stomach.
Community bakery, Locally Made

Our community is at the centre of our existence and we always get as much of what we can from what’s around us.
Ever since the very beginning, we have been supporting local economy with work placements, apprenticeships, partnering with local suppliers, and creating local products.
