Based in Cranborne an Area Of Outstanding Natural Beauty and established by Chris in 2014, Orchard Bay Bakery is an artisan bakery specializing in both traditional & sourdough bread and products.

We use age old methods to develop and produce a more nutritional and gut healthy loaf, all crafted by hand.

From our humble bakery we are on a mission to β€˜raise the vibes’ with our daily baked artisanal sourdough breads.

We believe that good bread makes you feel good. It warms the heart, it creates memories for life. It creates positive vibes and we want that to be the standard for happy, healthy humans who love their daily bread.
