Loaf Microbakery - Wymondham

Artisan Sourdough Excellence

Nestled on Middleton Street in Wymondham's charming historic core, loaf.microbakery occupies a compact converted dairy parlour, embodying the essence of a neighbourhood artisanal hub. Renowned for its three-day sourdough process—starting with a 12-hour leaven, followed by mixing, shaping, and overnight fermentation—the bakery produces highly digestible loaves with pronounced sour character. Using blends of organic and regenerative flours from local sustainable farms, offerings include Heritage (rye, wholewheat, white, spelt), Seeded Rye with pumpkin, sunflower seeds, barley, millet, and oak flakes, Stoneground White, Chia & Flaxseeds, Seeded Crust, and Rosemary Sea Salt Focaccia. Stoneground white and spelt baguettes complete the savoury lineup.

Sweeter Indulgences and Beverages

Complementing the breads are plant-based sweeter treats like Cinnamon Buns glazed with maple and coconut sugar, Chocolate Cookies, and weekly specials. The beverage menu shines with single-origin Indian Monsoon Malabar coffee—earthy and chocolatey—served as Espresso, Flat White, Cortado, Cappuccino, Latte, or Americano. Hot chocolate, made ganache-style with Pump Street's small-batch dark chocolate pastilles and agave, pairs perfectly, alongside a selection of herbal teas. Takeaway cups and lids are fully biodegradable, reflecting mindful practices.

Plant-Based Haven

Fully plant-based with no dairy, the kitchen prepares all items in an environment with nuts and sesame seeds; full ingredient lists are available, and staff assist with allergies.
