Baked fresh, every morning

Warm bread and something sweet, made by hand.

Demo Bakes is a small neighbourhood bakery — slow-fermented loaves, buttery pastries and cakes worth clearing an afternoon for. Come in, the kettle’s on.

What’s baking

A short menu that shifts with the seasons. If you can smell it from the pavement, it’s ready.

  • Country sourdough

    A long, slow rise and a crackling crust. The one we bake every single day.

  • Butter croissants

    Laminated by hand, folded through the morning, and gone by eleven.

  • Cinnamon buns

    Sticky, warm, and best eaten on the walk home while nobody’s watching.

  • Celebration cakes

    Birthdays, weddings, Tuesday. Tell us the occasion and we’ll bake to it.

  • Brown butter cookies

    Chewy middles, crisp edges, and a little sea salt on top.

  • Coffee & tea

    Flat whites, filter coffee, and proper leaf tea to go with it.

Our story

A small bakery with a big oven.

Demo Bakes started with one stubborn sourdough starter and the belief that good bread shouldn’t be complicated. Everything here is made by hand, in small batches, on the day you buy it. No shortcuts, no freezer, no fuss.

We like the slow bits: the smell of the first loaves at seven, the regular who takes the same two rolls every Saturday, the quiet hour before the doors open. If you’re new, say hello — we’ll point you at whatever’s warmest.

Bread is just flour, water, salt and time. The time is the part we don’t rush.

Cakes & big orders

Celebration cakes and larger orders are best placed a few days ahead so we can plan the bake. Come in and ask, or give the shop a ring — we’re happy to talk fillings.

Looking for something we don’t make? Ask anyway. We like a challenge.
