Our ingredients
Our menu is built around quality ingredients, helping us keep everything fresh and maintain a consistently high standard across everything we make.
Meat: Our meat is sourced through Aubrey Allen Butchery in Leamington Spa.
Cheese & dairy: Our cheese and dairy are also supplied by Aubrey Allen Butchery.
Eggs: We use free-range eggs from Beechwood Farm, a family-run producer in Berkshire.
Flour: We use Wildfarmed flour, produced with a focus on regenerative farming, soil health and better-quality grain.
Our bread
The bread matters just as much as what goes inside it.
We make our shokupan fresh in-house every day, using the tangzhong method to give it that ridiculously soft, fluffy texture.
Our signature 36-hour process crafts the perfect shokupan: a 24-hour slow dough ferment followed by a 12-hour overnight proof yields an incredibly soft, rich, and fragrant loaf.
