Who We Are

Small bakery. Big passion.

At The Daily Loaf, we believe great bread deserves time, care and honest ingredients. Every loaf is shaped by hand and baked to perfection — no shortcuts, no compromise. We've been doing this the old-fashioned way since day one, and we wouldn't have it any other way.

  • Freshly baked every morning
  • Authentic sourdough with long fermentation
  • Handcrafted patisserie and seasonal treats
What We Do

Everything from the oven to your table

01

Sourdough Bread

Our signature slow-fermented sourdoughs are crusty on the outside, open and chewy on the inside. Worth the trip.

02

Fresh Loaves

From classic white and wholemeal to seeded and rye — baked every morning so you always get it at its best.

03

Fine Patisserie

Delicate pastries, tarts and seasonal bakes crafted with the same care and attention as every loaf we make.

04

Daily Specials

Something new on the counter each day. Come in, see what's fresh, and treat yourself — you deserve it.

How It Works

From dough to your door in one morning

1

We start before dawn

Mixing, shaping and proofing begins in the early hours so everything is ready when you walk through the door.

2

Fresh out of the oven

Bread and pastries come out of the oven in waves throughout the morning — always warm, always at their best.

3

Come pick yours up

Pop in at Mill Lane 7, choose what you fancy and head home with something genuinely worth waking up for.

Our Philosophy

Slow bread. Honest craft.

Good bread can't be rushed. We use traditional techniques, long fermentation times and carefully sourced flour to create loaves that actually taste of something. No additives, no shortcuts — just flour, water, salt and time. That's the Daily Loaf promise.

  • No artificial additives or preservatives
  • Long-fermentation sourdough for better flavour and digestion
  • Locally sourced ingredients wherever possible
