Luminare

Bread made with fig paste and dried figs is a tempting choice when you’re in the mood for fruit. At Luminare, the selection has the feel of a neighbourhood bakery, with mostly light, fluffy breads ranging from savoury options to sweet treats. One customer who tried the fig bread said the combination of paste and dried figs made a lasting impression. Others have singled out the raisin and walnut bread as a favourite, too, making this a place to consider if you’re after bread with fruit or nuts.

For an alternative to wheat bread, one customer picked up bread made with 100% rice flour and rice flour madeleines. Toasting the small loaf reportedly gave it a crisp surface and a chewy centre. The madeleines were available in plain and vegetable flavours, offering another option if you’d like a baked treat alongside your bread.

For a meal, consider one of the generously filled vegetable sandwiches. Customers have also enjoyed an egg cream bun made with care and a sandwich filled with potato salad. Rather than picking up just one loaf, you could put together a takeaway lunch.

The bakery is open on Wednesdays and Saturdays from 8:00 to 19:30. Takeaway is available, and payment is cash only. If you’d like to choose from the baked treats and sandwiches as well as the bread, plan your visit for an open day.
