Forge Bakehouse

Head down to Nether Edge and you'll find Forge Bakehouse tucked away on Abbeydale Road—the kind of place that takes its flour seriously. Walk in and you're hit with that warm, yeasty smell that makes you forget about every disappointing supermarket loaf you've ever bought. They're doing sourdough properly here, with the kind of crust that actually cracks when you bite into it, not that sad, soft stuff. The pastries rotate depending on what they've got on, and they're the sort of thing you'll eat standing up without even thinking about it.
