The Sourdough Bread Hub – Tuesdays & Fridays – out by 8am
So if you live in or around Henley-on-Thames why not sign up for a regular supply of healthy, sustainable, fresh-baked sourdough? Come visit the Boston Road Bread Yard on a Tuesday or Friday from 8am – and ‘swipe’ a loaf of your choosing. Alternatively we deliver by ev and bicycle direct to your doorstep. I prepare and bake the bread myself. Properly. Using natural ingredients, no additives other than Himalayan rock salt, following a time-honoured (c3000-year-old), slow fermentation process which breaks down the ingredients fully, so as to maximise taste, nutrition value, and digestibility
I bake sourdough in my home every Tuesday and Friday for collection from the Boston Road Bread Hub (the sole outlet in Henley) and for delivery (via subscripti0n) – we offer self-service contactless payment or cash – bread can be purchased in this way from 8am until late in the day, either from baskets in front of the house or from a brown chest (behind the blue gate), depending on weather conditions. Just come and swipe. if it’s your first visit and are unsure how to operate the machine, just ring the doorbell or message me. That said, all you do is touch the photo(s) of the loaf(ves) you want, confirm the amount a few times, then SWIPE with your phone or card, until you hear a bleep!
Select, then swipe…
Alternatively, you can subscribe for a regular supply either weekly, twice-weekly or bi-weekly. This enables you to specify shape and style of loaf rather than taking pot-luck as to what’s there. It is flexible such that you can pause your subscription for holidays etc – just notify us in advance. Minimum subscription is £20 (four standard sourdough loaves) excluding delivery.
For those in Shiplake or nearby, the Lower Shiplake Corner Shop stocks our sourdough (Tuesday and Friday) from no later than 9am.
Local delivery (Henley-on-Thames, Bix, Assendon, Hambleden, Fawley, Stonor, or Medmenham e by bike, e-bike, or eV is also a popular choice. To subscribe or simply to find out more, just leave a message here and I will get back to you.
We bake on Tuesdays and Fridays from 1am, and each bake requires at least a day’s preparation, hence the preference to get orders in well in advance. It also enables us to minimise wastage. Customer feedback suggests that our bread both keeps well at room temperature especially if kept in a cotton bag, and freezes well.
