8 bakeries in Bristol, editor-picked for bakeries open sunday. Bakeries baking on sundays. All bakeries in Bristol.

Pinkmans Bakery ★ 4.3

Stokes Croft · Unit 1 Avonmead, 40-48 Stokes Croft, Bristol BS1 3QD

Hours: Mon-Fri 07:30-17:00; Sat-Sun 08:00-17:00

Pinkmans bakes Bristol's cult sourdough doughnuts and focaccia across five cafes; the Stokes Croft unit keeps the croft in brunch bakes and toasties.

Tip: Branches at Whiteladies Road, Wapping Wharf, the Cathedral and Westbury-on-Trym bake the same doughnuts if Stokes Croft sells out.

The Bristol Loaf ★ 4.3

Redfield · 215 Church Road, Redfield, Bristol BS5 9HF

Hours: Mon-Sat 08:00-16:00; Sun 10:00-16:00

The Bristol Loaf rises organic sourdough at Church Road in Redfield, the certified-organic bread bakery whose loaves stock cafes across Bristol.

Tip: Sister sites in Bedminster and at the Beacon carry the same bake; go early for the weekend pastry run.

Mark's Bread ★ 4.2

Southville · Tobacco Factory, Raleigh Road, Bristol BS3 1TF

Hours: Mon-Sat 08:00-18:00; Sun 09:00-16:00

Mark's Bread bakes slow-fermented loaves at the Tobacco Factory on Raleigh Road, the real-bread anchor of Bristol's North Street food strip.

Tip: It now bakes from the Tobacco Factory building itself; pair a loaf with the Sunday market downstairs.

Bakehouse ★ 4.2

St Philips · Bakehouse at Cakesmiths, St Philips Road, Bristol BS2 0JZ

Hours: Mon-Fri 07:30-16:00; Sat-Sun 08:00-16:00

Bakehouse bakes its 48-hour sourdough in an open-plan room inside Cakesmiths' St Philips works, Bristol's bread counter with the mixer in view.

Tip: It shares the site with wholesale cake maker Cakesmiths, so the sticky buns here are the freshest in the city.

Bakesmiths ★ 4.1

Whiteladies Road · 65 Whiteladies Road, Bristol BS8 2LY

Hours: Mon-Fri 07:00-17:00; Sat-Sun 08:00-17:00

Bakesmiths fills a double-height Whiteladies Road room with cakes, breakfast rolls and coffee, the bakery-cafe flagship of Bristol's Bakehouse team.

Tip: Their sister Bakehouse in St Philips bakes the sourdough; mornings here are calmer than the brunch-hour crush.

Mokoko Coffee & Bakery ★ 4.1

Wapping Wharf · 2 Gaol Ferry Steps, Wapping Wharf, Bristol BS1 6WE

Hours: Mon-Fri 08:30-16:00; Sat-Sun 09:00-18:00

Mokoko bakes pastries in full view at the foot of Gaol Ferry Steps, pairing an open bakery bench with single-estate coffees on Bristol's harbourside.

Tip: Watch the bakers work the bench from the window seats; weekend afternoons run later here than most Bristol bakeries.

Anna Cake Couture ★ 4.0

Wapping Wharf · Unit 8, Cargo 1, Gaol Ferry Steps, Bristol BS1 6WP

Hours: Mon-Thu 10:00-18:00; Fri-Sat 10:00-20:00; Sun 10:00-18:00

Anna Cake Couture pipes macarons and hand-finished cakes from a Cargo container at Wapping Wharf, Bristol's patisserie counter on the harbour.

Tip: Friday and Saturday evenings run late for dessert after dinner on the wharf; whole cakes need ordering ahead.

Parsons Bakery ★ 3.5

Gloucester Road · 125 Gloucester Road, Bristol BS7 8AX

Hours: Mon-Sat 07:30-16:00; Sun 09:00-14:30

Parsons is Bristol's own everyday bakery chain, hand-baking rolls, pasties and iced buns; the Gloucester Road shop feeds the indie mile cheaply.

Tip: This is the budget counter, not the sourdough one; a lunch here costs less than a flat white elsewhere on the road.
