Dear friends and bread-lovers,
At Olivier's Bakery, we are proud to have served our local communities for many years. As an independent bakery committed to artisanal methods, we owe our survival to your unwavering support, especially in the face of recent challenges brought about by Brexit, the pandemic, and rising prices. Despite these difficulties, we remain steadfast in our mission to bring you the very best quality products. Regrettably, we have had to adjust our prices to keep up with these challenging times. We did not take this decision lightly and hope for your understanding.
We continue to bake tirelessly, day and night, to serve you all. Please visit our 'Where to find us' page for the latest updates on our opening times. We prioritise the safety of our customers, particularly the elderly and frontline workers of the NHS and emergency services. Rest assured, we maintain stringent hygiene standards and take great care in our baking process to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for all.
Our Story
At Olivier's Bakery, we believe in the power of food to bring people together. Our handcrafted breads and pastries embody our passion for traditional artisan methods, our respect for organic local produce, and our patience-driven approach to delightful food. Sourcing our stone-ground flours from local mills, we bake in small batches daily at sunrise. Bread, one of the first shared foods among early civilisations, holds a special place at our table. We strive to return it to its rightful central position, inviting loved ones to rip, pull, tear, and share.
Organic Ingredients
Proud users of organic and locally sourced ingredients, we use only the finest cold-pressed, extra-virgin 100% Italian olive oil, unsalted butter from milk sourced from pasture-fed cows in Britain, and organic flours from local mills. Each batch is unique, requiring our bakers' keen eyes and orchestra-like coordination. We never use added gluten, preservatives, improvers, or unnecessary ingredients.
Traditional Methods
Our bakeries and methods are part of a timeless French savoir-faire, combining sophistication and homeliness. We let the changing humidity of our capital influence our baking process, adjusting our techniques according to the weather. Baking, one of the oldest art forms, thrives on simplicity and necessity: flour, water, a dash of sea salt, and a great deal of love and patience.
Our Philosophy
Quality baking lies at the core of Olivier's Bakery. We seek exceptional individuals who share our vision of artisanal food-making, hiring only those who care deeply about their craft. Our sole aim is to make our customers happy by bringing people together around a common love for delicious bread.

Bakery Reviews Summary
The reviews are overwhelmingly positive, praising the bakery's variety of freshly baked breads, including the Rye and L'ancienne, and the quality of their pastries and brownies. Many customers appreciate the friendly staff and the reasonable prices. However, there are a few mentions of dry bread, which might indicate a variation in quality. Despite this, the overall experience is highly recommended, especially for the bread and pastries.
