Luke’s Story

In 2021, I took a leap of faith, leaving behind a career in banking to pursue my lifelong dream of opening a bakery! With an unwavering passion for proper sourdough and top-notch produce, my mission was clear: to shake up the local bakery scene and deliver the best bread in the North.

After training at the prestigious Le Cordon Bleu culinary school, I dedicated a year to perfecting recipes for my signature sourdough. To my absolute delight, everyone who tried it raved that it was the best they’d ever tasted – a classic sourdough with the ideal balance of softness and crunch. Fueled by their feedback, I fired up the ovens, bought a van, and hit the road!

Today, my amazing team and I bake thousands of loaves a week, bringing the freshest, tastiest artisan sourdough to shops, homes and hospitality outlets across Yorkshire and Lincolnshire. We slow-prove our dough for unbeatable flavour, bake for just the right amount of time, and never shortcut on simple, local, honest ingredients and friendly northern service.

Fresh, flavourful and full of goodness, people now tell us all the time it’s the best bread they’ve tasted! Our loaves can be found in a growing number of northern shops, cafés, and restaurants – businesses who share my love of quality, homemade food.

Thank you for browsing, buying, and joining us on this incredible journey. Your support makes those long nights at the bakery more than worth it!
