Freshly Baked Products to Delight Every Palate
Pastry is our first love at KNEAD. From classic almond croissants and our award-winning pain au chocolat to international favourites like freshly baked pastel de nata, we celebrate the art of pastry. Seasonal offerings and customer favourites, such as the pecan and maple Danish, make every visit special.
Our savoury selection is equally irresistible: 72-hour fermented sourdough, soft and golden focaccias, and the indulgent Gloucester Old Spot pork sausage roll. Lunchtime brings freshly prepared baguettes and wholesome salads, including unique options like cauliflower and chickpea salad.
The patisserie range combines traditional techniques with modern flair - including coffee opera cake, Basque cheesecake, and six flavours of doughnuts filled with jam, cream, or chocolate. Every product is crafted to delight the senses and showcase our passion for baking.
