Leeds Bread Co-op - Leeds

Michael Bourne

The sourdough bread course is brilliant. If you want to learn to bake like a professional Baker then sign yourself up. Been trying to bake sourdough for years, with very intermittent results. Forget YouTube and the millions of recipes you can get online. If you want to do it properly get yourself here, in God's Own Country.

I love all of their bread and cakes so I order about 6 loaves at a time and freeze them. I love the wide range of flours, seeds and nuts they use. All organic and locally sourced when possible. The bread is so delicious and is beautiful to taste and smell. A loaf usually lasts me about five days and all their bread keeps fresh. If there is a little piece left, I make breadcrumbs so every lovely bit is used. This bread is not expensive as the loaves are twice the size of-supermarket sour doughs etc and far far superior in taste and texture.
The shop on the bakery site has developed over the years and now is a place of visual delight and wonderful aromas. I highly recommend a visit to the shop. They will deliver to certain post codes in Leeds.

If you like real bread this is the place to go.
They have a good choice of different sourdough breads and some pastries, cakes and foccacia.
Everything is so fresh and tasty,not comparable with supermarket bread.
This place definitely worth a visit even if it's in some industrial zone.
Staff is very kind and friendly.

If you want bread that is tasty, filling, made properly and that will keep a good 5-7 days when conserved correctly, this is the best place I know of in Leeds.
The bread is fairly priced, but the pastry are a bit expensive (though excellent specially if popped a few minutes in a warm oven)

Lovely people, brilliant bread and pastries - a bit on the expensive side. It's worth it as it's such good quality, just wish I could afford to stop here more regularly. No absence of queues, even with limited opening and an out of the way location, which demonstrates how great this place is, and how committed people are to this Co-op. Really amazing bread, dense and flavourful, the sort that makes you wonder why you ever ate your usual loaf. A little slice of heaven ?

I've been eating Leeds Bread Co-op sourdough for years and it's always been consistently good. I've been picking up pre-ordered goods from the shop since lockdown and really like the cardamom knot as its not too sweet or sickly to have for an early breakfast. I hope they're around for years to come

I love the Bread co-op and buy quite a lot from there as my family love the breads and we're big advocates of supporting small businesses. BUT, I think their croissants are really overpriced. An almond croissant is £3.75 and a plain one is £2.75. I get it's artisan and labour intensive, getting the layers etc, but sadly that wasn't reflected in the final product. My wife had a plain and it wasn't all that and I had the almond and again, while they're nice, they're not worth the price. Won't stop going, will just get croissants elsewhere!

I could not speak too highly of the quality of Leeds Bread Co-op's bread. I only ever buy it at the Ilkley Real Food market once a month but that's only because that's my only opportunity.

All the bread we've bought from them has been consistently excellent. I've just eaten some of their white sourdough and it was so delicious that it prompted me to come to write this review. If you like top quality fresh bread and you can buy bread from the Leeds Bread Co-op, do not waste the opportunity.
