Little Bread Pedlar

Where To Order For Dessert Takeaway & Delivery In London When That Last Chocolate Rice Cake Just Isn’t Going To Cut It

"The Little Bread Pedlar is pretty much just what we call our mouths now, but it’s also an excellent artisan bakery situation in Bermondsey. You can now order their bakewell tarts, almond croissants, and sourdough online for delivery within three miles, or for collection. You’re definitely going to want to get involved in the butter bread, but you can’t go wrong with a round of cardamom and orange buns too." - heidi lauth beasley

"Little Bread Pedlar started baking in an arch in Bermondsey’s Spa Terminus and now sells bread and pastries in stores across London. LBP started making panettone in 2015. This year, head baker Andy Davy and his team are taking orders of its classic panettone with candied orange, lemon, and rum-soaked raisins for pickup from 5 December. LBP also makes a chocolate panettone and a pandoro, panettone’s star-shaped distant cousin." - Sean Wyer

"Little Bread Pedlar is one of the Spa Terminus elders, dating back to when this stretch really was an industrial wasteland. The bakers no longer pedal their own pastries across London at 5am, and some of the originals have moved on, but its maverick, pioneering spirit remains. Expect a queue of around 30 people minimum here for their baguettes — also found at 40 Maltby Street — ficelles, rye made with beer from neighbours Kernel Brewery, focaccia, and a host of perfectly laminated pastries. Saturday mornings only." - Virginia Hartley

I'm glad I stopped by. I enjoyed my oat flat white which greatly complemented the croissant I got. The croissant was a great bake. It was soft whilst retaining its airiness and flakiness. The notes of salt enhanced the sweetness without it being overbearing. I will definitely be returning to try their other baked goods. The Little Bread Pedlar in Bermondsey is situated under the arches and there wasn't seating available. There was a slender "counter" outside where you could rest your coffee but the space was limited. It's located 10 minutes away from the river Thames, so I got to enjoy both the coffee and croissant at Bermondsey Beach.

Amazing speciality pastries and treats at this branch that you can't get at the other branches. Flaky, buttery, delicious pastries that satisfy your pastry fix. The coffee here is amazing with a decaf option. The artisan organic sourdough bread from wholegrain to white is super tasty. Queues are long in the morning but it's worth it as they sell out fast, and the queue moves fast.

The Little Bread Peddler (LBP) in Bermondsey is a small bakery tucked away under a railway arch just off Spa road. Offering artisan bread and pastries to take away, it's an absolute must visit if you love fresh sourdough bread - it's the best in Bermondsey! (in my opinion as a local). As a result, you'll find me frequenting the LBP every Sunday morning to pick up a fresh sourdough loaf 🍞 and sometimes a cheeky croissant 🥐.

I recently visited this great bakery and it’s new coffee shop in Bermondsey I was so impressed! The pastries were made with real butter and high-quality flour, and the dark chocolate was delicious. You can really taste the difference in the quality of the ingredients. It's a true local gem and I've been visiting it often since I moved to the area (before they were selling straight from the bakery premises under the bridge). The only downside is that the opening times keep changing, and the early morning opening hours have shifted from 7am to 8:30am. It's a shame that the bakery closes earlier in the day, so it's too late when I come back from work and too early when I'm heading to work. Other than that, I'm always happy with my visits to this great bakery!

After reading all these positive reviews I had really high hopes for this bakery, as it's been on my to-try list for 2-3 years now. So one Sunday morning after I woke up really early because of post-holiday jetlag, I decided to trek all the way to LBP and finally try it out myself. It had literally just opened when I got there at 8:30, so thankfully there wasn't a queue. It was also super rainy which definitely put people off from coming so early. I had a look the pastries and went with the plain croissant, hazelnut chocolatine, maple pecan swirl and the cinnamon bun. I then went home and tried the cinnamon bun, which I must say wasn't particularly impressed with, as it tasted just very average like any other bakeries out there. It's on the fluffy side, and the sugar on top added some crunch to it. A few hours later, I also tried the hazelnut chocolatine and this was when I got very surprised about the quality of the pastries - it was chewy! Just because I left the pastries aside for a few hours after purchase doesn't mean they should have turned chewy! I was genuinely shocked that it was like that particular given how early I got to the bakery which meant they must have been just baked! It's not flaky, the shape seemed off even though the taste and the filling was great. I have never eaten a croissant-type pastry that's chewy and I don't believe it should ever taste like that. So now I am really confused why others think their pastries were even good?! As someone who has tried millions of bakeries in London and around the world, I am truly disappointed with the quality of LBP. Before my visit to the bakery, I really thought this would turn out so positive that I could start recommending my friends to come. But I guess that's not happening.

Incredible bread! Every loaf has a perfect crust and is deliciously fresh. The sourdough is tangy and light, while the baguettes are crispy and airy. Highly recommended!

I wish I could love LBP more…had Kouign Amman and cardamom bun but they were not on point for me. The bun was a bit tastless and the Kouign amman was too bread-like rather than french buttery crunchy pastry. Also the ciabatta italian style made with sourdough tastes too much like sourdough and not like a fluffy ciabatta. Service is very nice though and coffee was great.

Decent little space for coffee at the base of the new apartment complex. Was quite busy and a little chaotic ordering because of the London Marathon but staff were doing their best. Cheese toastie with chilli jam was 🤌 as well as the everything pastry. Haven't tried the bread but all looks good. Will be back for sure as we live closeby.
