Our story
Flour, water, salt and time.
We started with one oven and a jar of starter. Today we still mix, shape and bake everything by hand in the shop, with flour from a mill forty miles away.
No improvers, no shortcuts: just a long, slow rise and a hot oven. That is why it tastes the way it does.

Can I pre-order bread?
Yes. Order by 6pm the day before and it will be bagged with your name on it. Cakes and big orders need two days' notice.
Do you have gluten-free or vegan options?
A few: our oat flapjacks are vegan and we bake one gluten-free loaf on Saturdays. Everything is made in a kitchen that handles gluten, nuts and dairy.
Can I bring my dog?
Dogs are welcome at the outside tables and we keep a water bowl by the door.
Do you deliver?
Not yet. We do pickup from the shop, and we are happy to box up a large order for a local courier.
Order ahead, skip the queue
Tell us what you want and when, and it will be bagged and waiting. Cakes and large orders need two days' notice.
