Wouldn’t it be grand if there was somewhere you could consistently find fresh baked brioche or rye toast for breakfast in the morning? Imagine then, that as the sun got a bit higher in the sky, that same fresh bread got layered into tastefully composed sandwiches with robust ingredients like pastrami, aged cheddar, and pickled onions.
What if you also had the convenience of espresso or filter in the same place, with that single origin blend from distant shores imparting the sweet, slightly bitter notes of its life story, as you weighed up whether to grab one of those chewy-looking cookies from the thick stack on the counter?
Yes, it’s safe to say that bakeries and coffee go together like black coffee and pastry, and with a selection of fresh pies and sammies on offer, it's time to grab a hot cup of joe and run into the sunrise with your tasty haul.
Nestled in the heart of the old Hannah’s Shoe Factory building in town, you'll find yourself travelling from afar to order a quality coffee and a sourdough Leeds Street loaf to-go.
