Bakery
From local beginnings, Bridge Baker is a neighbourhood bakery & food store, with a simple desire to make traditionally prepared bread, cakes and treats with none of the artificial nasties found in supermarket products. Our motto of “think global, eat local” ensures that we produce authentic products from all over the world with everything made from scratch, in-house.
What’s your loaf?
All our bread is super fresh, so can be frozen very successfully.
Most breads can be sliced and frozen in freezer bags. To use, just toast a slice as needed. Small loaves like focaccia and baguettes can be frozen whole. To eat, defrost in the fridge overnight and then ‘refresh’ in a hot oven (190-200C) for about 10 minutes.
“My favourite here is the carrot cake and the brioche. The pizza bread is well done and delicate. A must go if you are in the neighbourhood”
“The savoury food and the bakery is excellent and the pastries and cakes too. Everything is freshly made on a daily basis with plenty of vegetarian options.”
“My new favourite bakery. Everything is obviously made from scratch. You can smell the bread being baked down the side street before you get to the store”
We love to support local (Flour from Essex, Beers from Wimbledon, SW6 Honey from South Park, and our wine supplier lives just down the road). But we do insist on French butter for our pastries. Nothing else produces the right taste and flakiness of pastry.
