Local ingredients, passionate bakers.
Sourdough is divine.
Generous portions.
Beautiful almond cake.
Cool atmosphere.
Nice touch on cutlery and plates, feels cosy.
Too good for the money. Best in Liverpool.
Freshly baked loaves line the exposed brick walls, a counter jam packed full of various pastries, with the cafe pleasantly full, buzzing with chat and with a genuinely authentic rustic feel to the place.
Think of the Baltic Triangle as Liverpool's Dalston - a previously run-down area of old heavy industry finding new life as an area for creative upstarts and independent restaurants and cafés. Wandering around the area bordered by Wapping/The Strand, Parliament Street and Park Lane/St James St at first nothing seems to have changed much; weeds grow up old brick walls enclosing sleepy timber yards, the skeletal frames of long-since collapsed buildings house that depressingly familiar Liverpool sight, the temporary car park. But look a little closer, and the signs of a renaissance of sorts are clear enough. On Blundell Street, a handsome old converted warehouse is now artists' studios and the Lantern Theatre , a family run venue, in their words "dedicated to the development and delivery of new talent". Round the corner on Greenland Street is perhaps Liverpool's most willfully insane food/party venue, Camp and Furnace, who describe themselves as an "indoor festival park". Here you can watc
A wonderfully rustic bakery with a great selection of pastries, which are delightfully large. The maple and pecan knot was a highlight, as was the mushrooms on toast.
Probably the best breakfast I’ve had this year.
The bread from here is superb; takes so fresh and is delicious.
The cakes were also incredible.
We both had the French toast with smoked back bacon and maple syrup. I could have easily eaten another portion. It went down a treat.
The cakes were also very good, my only comment was that my brownie had gone a tiny bit stale but it was sitting out on the counter.
They had a good choice of local jams to buy as well as coffee and other locally sourced bits.
I bought some jam as a gift and some bread to take home.
I would definitely go back.
I love the ambience. Rustic and practical. Their toasts are awesome. The pain au Chocolat was flaky and perfectly baked, although the chocolate lingots we're a bit chewy. The vibe was perfect and made it for a great breakfast spot. If I ever come back to Liverpool I will come here every day to try a different toast. Only downside is not having an espresso machine. Luckily there are great coffee shops around.
Great bakery and definitely worthy of its awards. A bit pricey but to be expected. The raspberry bun and the lemon bun are the stars of the show. Would recommend
Amazing little place, if your nearby I'd 100% recommend a visit.
Update 4 years on from my first review:
This is still amazing and is one of my favourite places in Liverpool!
The sourdough definitely has a chew to it but if you don't mind a jaw workout the taste is outstanding!
My usual order is either a bacon sandwich or their incredible mushrooms on toast! And the pastries they do!! 😍😍
It often gets busy around lunch and is a bit small inside but even if you can't find a seat I'd highly recommend just getting takeaway it should be a crime to be nearby and not buy something delicious!
Breakfast is great! Coffee and bread is excellent.
I normally review pubs but this premises requires a review because four of us were so impressed, from the initial friendly greeting, the ordered sandwiches were truly delicious!
I would highly recommend before it gets too popular as the quality will not go unnoticed!
Fantastic freshly baked bread and great breakfast 🍞🙌 only advice for the customers: get there early or it will sell out 🙌
Those people make the best sourdough bread.Anywhere. I often eat the whole thing in a day , despite efforts not to as it makes me fat. Their HLT sandwich is also my favourite.
One thing that really could be improved purely as I want to eat more of it is opening times. I would buy daily but cannot get to work on time as they only open at 9 am. 8:30 ,or ideally 8 am would be perfect. Just half me over a loaf, take my money and close the door 😅
It was back in 2015 when I visit Baltic. It is always a marvelous place to visit for a breakfast morning. Sourdough is their signature which I always aim at. The environment is bit industrial which I liked the most on their brown brick works. It is a must visit in Liverpool in the morning.
