About Bread & Roses

Bread & Roses is an artisan bakery working from Unit 5c on Willowtree Industrial Estate in Alnwick, Northumberland. Operating since 2011, it specialises in authentic, naturally leavened and sourdough breads made using traditional techniques and extended fermentation. The bakery is committed to using local ingredients wherever possible, alongside organic flours from trusted millers, reflecting a genuinely craft approach to baking.

Its range spans rye sourdough, miches, seeded boules, white levain, multi-grain loaves, Moscow rye, country malt bloomers and baguettes. Rather than a conventional shop counter, the bakery sells through outlets including the twice-monthly Hexham Farmers' Market as well as various local shops and restaurants, making its loaves available across the wider Northumberland area to those seeking properly made real bread.
