david_carnell Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Ooh, good stuff.Given the rising price of bread and the newly opening bakers opposite William Rose and the current bakers opposite Green and Blue I'll be intrigued by any price undercutting going on. Oh, and the bread from the ED Deli. Choice, choice, choice.Love your bread from the stall on Northcross Road so best of luck.

Nero Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Isn't there going to be a new bakery next to Moxon's? I can feel a collective ED gluten intolerance coming on.

SimonM Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Actually, how many of the "bakeries" in ED are/will be "bread shops"? Do any have a bakery somewhere on the premises, as Kindred does in Herne Hill?

Jeremy Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Is the Northcross road stall the one that sells cakes and quiches and stuff? Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/3223-blackbird-bakery/#findComment-100375 Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveT Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Baking on the premises is no guarantee for good bread, I never liked the kindred mix, it all seemed too insubstantial.

charlottekb Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Wicked! I was wondering what would go there. Its about time some new businesses came to this part of ED. Good luck and welcome.

jimbo1964 Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Maybe one of these fine bakers would start a morning bread delivery service? Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/3223-blackbird-bakery/#findComment-100469 Share on other sites More sharing options...
marge Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Ah, but the coffee will be the telling point for me, especially en route to the station! How much for a medium cappucino?

SimonM Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Blackbird sells fine bread-making flour in 2.5K sacks...As for Kindred, it's all doqn to personal taste I suppose. On any day but Saturday they have the best baguettes (available too at Romeo Jones) and their crusty white loaves are gorgeous...(On Saturdays the baguettes in Mootown in the EDW still rool!)

Louisa Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 About time Grove Vale started benefitting from the ED "gentrification" process, equally, it cant be called a bakers if it doesnt bake it on the premesis. One thing about Ayres of Nunhead (despite what the snobs on here think#) it is a true bakers and although quality has slipped in recent years, it still remains by far the best bakers locally.Louisa.
