More! The Artisan Bakery

Highlight • Cafe

A real gem, this bakery has been around for about a decade and, as well as being a wholesale supplier for the best places in the Lakes, it also has a cafe on-site so everything is mega fresh. Alongside great baked goods and bread, they also do soups, sandwiches and the like.

Really welcoming to cyclists and hikers, they're open from 8.00am every day, closing at 4pm on weekdays and 5pm on weekends.
