Super proud of the team at Farro, taking up space alongside some of our favourite bakeries in the @fthtsi top 20 bakeries in the UK! Great to see so many bakeries making the list that are championing fresh milled, locally grown flour and supporting local/uk farmers. Proof that the stonemilled fresh stuff simply taste better!✨🌾✨

a cool sea breeze and an ocean dip would be sublime or even just a walk in fridge to hang out in, alas we have neither….what we do have however is a delicious new soft serve in the machine, offering a moments respite on the bakery steps. This month we’ve got an Amalfi Lemon & Basil sorbet, with a little mascarpone in the mix to round out the lemon, finished with a dusting of basil sugar…. It’s Super refreshing and icy cold 🧊❄️

Serving🍦✨✨

The suns out, It’s unseasonably sticky and everyone needs an ice cream... Which coincides beautifully with the return of our beloved @carpigiani1946 softserve machine to the farro bakery counter. From May till September we’ll be serving a different flavour every month, in a cup or one of our house made einkorn cones which are tasting even more delicious (Thanks to @jjhings !)
-
The 2025 line up starts tomorrow with some super fragrant alphonso mangos, imported by the local legends @bristolsweetmartltd and some incredible yogurt from Dave and his herd of Guernsey cows @hurdlebrookorganic …. Tasting like a super decedent, icy mango lassi

Open from 8am tomorrow with zero judgement about eating icecream for breakfast x
Tourte de Seigle

Our new bread special this month is a French classic. This thick-crusted, sturdy loaf, has a tight but tender crumb and is made with a blend of 100% freshly milled, UK grown rye & wheat. It’s tasting delicious and looking beautiful after some skillful dialling in by @benjamin_costello .

Rather than getting scored with a razor, the loaves get proofed seam side down so when fipped out on to the peel, to be loaded In the oven, the bottom becomes the top giving it that stunning organic burst as it bakes 💥 on the counter from this weekend
