If you come here and have the carrot cake your whole day will be perfect
Pastries there is amazing and what you pay for is worth. but the brioche bun with chicken was a little pricy unless they actually made their own bun? Otherwise is just some chicken with nice mayo in a bun with fresh lettuce. I found most of the savoury pastries or sandwiches there are on the small side with the amount they are charging in my opinion..the cardamom bun and the banana muffins were good but were not many Vegan options. Also had a leek pie with bacon and cheese. A touch bigger would have been very satisfied.

Some people in Norwich speak about Bread Source with the same degree of wonder as those fortunate few, who have witnessed an apparition of our Blessed Lady.
I am not so easily enamoured. After a certain age, butterflies and the magic of yeast, flour and sugar tend to pass you by.
You expect to see butterflies without having to endure caterpillars and enjoy bread without having to kiss the bakers apron.
The bread and pastries are fine, what is not so fine are the staff. Often they behave as if they are celebrities and you are just another grubby trucker troubling them for their autographs.
One redeeming exception to this charmless morass is the young staff member called Wesley. This young man works hard, shows attention to detail and can easily be prevailed upon to smile.
I hope that the rest of the team at Bread Source learn from Wesley.
Dealing with customers, many of whom can be casually rude is not easy. But charm is an underrated quality and will be more useful in your future career than many of the courses you spent years studying in school and college.
3 stars, brought up to 5.
Friendly staff, clean airy space, great coffee and delicious cakes. Highly recommend the carrot cake and raspberry crumble.
Great little artisan coffee and cafe house in the lanes of Norwich. !! Beautiful ambience and great natural food. Catering for everyones tastes and dietary requirements. Beautiful space either takeaway or eat in doors or alfresco in the quiet courtyard ..
Amazing selection of cakes. Not many choices in savoury pastries but the savoury options they did have were very tasty and delicious.
We tried homemade sausage roll and spinach, cheese and ham pastry as savoury and fresh strawberry and clotted cream filled doughnut and Chelsea bun as a sweet options. Coffee and hot chocolate.
Decoration is very original and fancy.
One of the best places to get breakfast or brunch.
Love love love this place. Stayed in Norwich with a friend for a week... We went to Bread Source every single morning! I'm usually a savoury food person but I absolutely love the pastries here. My favourites were the Raspberry, Almond, Pistachio pastry, Almond/Chocolate croissant, plain croissant and I also love the rustic sourdough bread!
I have used this bakery over the last few years, ordering on line and then collecting. Their pastries and bread are superb, we especially enjoy their spelt bread, in my opinion the best artisan bakery in Norwich by far, we have tried them all.
Wonderful coffee and specially cakes.
I wish you would make more almond croissants.
It is almost impossible to get them unless you are up at the crack of dawn.
Please make more to put in your shops especially the refectory at the Cathedral.
Yummy to the lemon & poppy cake trial I’ll be back for a slice ! Almond croissants are my favourite .. lovely place lovely people and I’m so lucky to be a salon few doors up ! Breakfast lunch & dinner … thank you 🥰
Best bakery in Norwich / Norfolk for sure... doughnuts are out of this world! Staff are always super helpful and friendly and great real bread 🍞.
I love this shop. The quality of their bread and pastries is wonderful. Everything is so delicious. Their flour and yeast is also very good. A life saver during lockdown! You can also sit there and order a coffee to enjoy with your pastry. They are a bit expensive which makes sense for the quality they deliver. Forgot to tell that they have really nice sandwiches too. Still didn’t have the chance to try their famous donuts. I love their cinnamon rolls.
Bread Source is an artisan bakery but I go there for their delicious coffee and pastries. Their raspberry pistachio danish is delicious! And so are the brownie, carrot and lemon cakes. They have a few shops in Norwich but my favourite one so far (I've visited two of them) is the one on Upper St Giles Street.
Great food, lovely little garden out the back, always enjoy the cakes and sweet treats available.
One of the best coffees you can get in Norwich. Cool & calm environment to work in, & the sausage roll is the best I've ever had.
What a great artisan bakery, great little stylish place with wonderful pastries. Regular weekend visits for a Sunday morning treat. Staff are really friendly, always take time to have a chat, you can tell they love what they do.
