Known throughout Monmouthshire for their 100% rye sourdough this popular bakery has been supplying surrounding businesses for years. What’s great for us is they’ve now two fantastic cafes; one in Cardiff and the other based here in the hip Welsh town of Monmouth.
If you’re looking for superb sourdough, deliciously different cakes & pasties or savoury bites it’s one we’d highly recommend a quick detour here!
Early riders will find sourdough toast alongside a rather moreish cinnamon fruit toast with preserves too. Additionally there’s breakfast pots and warm savoury croissants too (tomato, cheese & basil or bacon, cheese & maple syrup).
For lunch again their famous sourdough and focaccia feature heavily; toasted sourdough sandwiches, focaccia with various toppings, seasonal soup or focaccia sandwiches. Additional there’s sourdough pizza by the slice and a range of customisable nutri-bowls too.
The cakes, pastries and sweet treats are again as you’d expect all baked in-house too. During our Christmas visit these included a spiced stollen slice, chocolate & raspberry bostock (a French pastry similar to French toast), raspberry & vanilla glazed doughnut, blueberry & strawberry jam bostock cake, chocolate croissant, Jaffa cake biscotti, raspberry & pistachio biscuit and range of Kouign-Amann – a sweet Breton cake (all pictured).
The coffee is sourced from a favourite roaster of ours, Clifton Coffee, alongside the tea which is also sourced from the same roaster and named Clifton Tea.
