In Lockdown I got on my bicycle and started delivering sourdough loaves and pastries to my neighbours in South East London.

My thinking was simple. Everyone loves great bread and pastries but they're often hard to find and inconvenient to purchase. As a result, too many miss out on the simple joy these products bring and the quality time that families share over them.

Wouldn't it be better if you could just start your weekend with freshly baked sourdough and pastries waiting for you on your doorstep?

That's why I set up Butter & Crust - to deliver outstanding freshly baked goods directly to your doorstep each Saturday morning for you to wake up to - no stress, no faff. Like the milkman, but much higher quality and delivered 100% by bicycle.

👉 Trusted by 1,276 households in South East London
👉 Free delivery by bicycle
👉 Pause or cancel anytime
👉 On your doorstep before 9AM

Been using butter and crust for about 6 months. Really good milk. Great bread and easy way to schedule Monmouth coffee beans. Has been great. Would recommend.

 

Thank you! I'm very pleased to hear it and appreciate you sharing the good word!

Your cargo bicycle on the pavement in Gilkes is a hazard and it hasn't moved for over a year!


The tyres are flat and the cargo basket is full of water. It makes it very awkward for pedestrians to get past.

 

Thanks for bringing this to my attention Kathleen. I will get the cargo biked moved on Friday.


All the very best.

Cargo bike is still on pavement on Gilkes Crescent, been there well over a year, doesn't move, tires are flat.


Can't understand why you don't need to use it, or is it just free advertising?

 

Sorry, Cathleen. I had asked a member of the team to move it on the Friday but I see that didn't happen.


I have just removed the bike myself now. Thanks for your patience with us.


All the very best.

You almost had me fooled there Ollie.


I see you have just moved the old cargo bike with the flat tyre to the pavement outside Megan's instead! Unbelievable.


I will contact Southwark Council and get them to remove it instead.

 

Hi Kathleen,


Thanks for the message. We moved the bike from the lamppost and took it inside our workplace after you raised the issue. We later briefly locked it up outside of Meghan’s ahead of it being collected and permanently rehomed. That’s all now happened so you won’t see it again.


As before, thanks for raising the issue and I apologise for any inconvenience caused.


All the best.

There was one of their bikes chained up on Woodwarde Road for months as well - are their cargo bikes breeding?

 

Hi Rockets,


There is only the one bike. It was locked up for a period on Woodwarde road where my co-founder lived at the time and the bike was being used every week. I am genuinely sorry if that inconvenienced you. As above, the cargo bike in question has now been rehomed.


All the very best.

Can you bing vegan cheese? If so

 

Hi Jules and Boo,


Thanks for the question. I'm afraid we don't offer cheese/vegan cheese at the moment. Our focus for now is on the products that you would typically find in a bakery.


All the very best.

    • Driving down Lordship lane around 2.45pm today saw a v sick looking fox walking in and out of the crowd. 
    • I know I'm a bit premature but don't want to forget through too much Chrisntas cheer! Southwark Council Christmas trees recycling arrangements 2025 - bit worrying for the future that they're emphasising the free bit. "We’ll collect and recycle your real Christmas tree for free!  Trees should not be taller than 5ft. You should chop any taller trees into smaller pieces. Remove all decorations and the pot or stand and recycle it by: putting your tree with your garden waste containers on collection day requesting a free collection if you do not have a garden waste collection  taking it to our Reuse and Recycling Centre [43 Devon Street, SE15 1AL open 08:30-16:30 Mon-Sun] If you live in a flat you must leave the tree: outside on the kerb visible for the collection crew not in a bin store" I'll add the link to the collection booking service when it opens on 22 December. 
    • Most homes in East Dulwich / Good Green ward have collections on Tuesdays or Wednesdays. So no changes for them this year.  But for those few local homes with collections normally on Thursdays or Friday, with Christmas, Boxing day happening on Thursday and Friday any blue, brown or green bin collections will be delayed by two days. So Thursday 25 December collections will be on Saturday 27 December and Friday 26 December collections on Sunday 28 December. For New Years day those Thursday collections will be on the Friday 2 January and those with normal collections of Fridays that will be on Saturday 3 January. To double check when your Southwark Council rubbish, recycling, food waste, garden waste collections will be taking place please please check here - https://services.southwark.gov.uk/bins/lookup
    • Luckily I don't really any regular reason to park at Dawson Heights.  It must be very difficult for the residents I do feel for them.  Thank you for them.  I just presumed that Southwark owned the estate and would be responsible for parking enforcement there.
