Who are we?

Hindley’s Bakery is a family-run, traditional bakery located in the heart of historic Lichfield, Staffordshire. Just a short walk from the birthplace of Samuel Johnson, the renowned writer, our bakery offers a unique taste of history.

A Family Bakery

Today, siblings Duncan Hindley and Jackie Beaumont work closely with directors Tina Hibbs and Alona Jackson. Together, they continue the legacy of their great-grandfather, Joseph Hindley, who founded the bakery in 1893. This rich heritage inspires our commitment to quality and craftsmanship.

Every day, our small but skilled team bakes high-quality bread, cakes, and pastries. We take pride in using traditional methods and fresh ingredients, ensuring that each product is delicious and made with care.

Out and About

In addition to our bakery and café in Lichfield, we proudly participate in farmers’ markets and food festivals throughout the Midlands. If you can’t make it to our shop, simply check our Markets & Events page to find a stall near you!

Learn to Bake

Furthermore, we offer bread-making courses with Duncan Hindley himself. Whether you’re a beginner or looking to refine your skills, these classes are a great opportunity to learn the art of baking in a friendly environment.

OUR PRODUCTS

Our bread and cakes combine traditional recipes with new innovations. These recipes, handed down through generations, meet the latest creations from Duncan Hindley and our baking team.

As a small, family-run bakery, it is very important to us that our customers trust us to deliver high-quality bread and cakes. Whether we are baking a classic white tin loaf or fermenting sourdough, we aim for everything to look and taste terrific.

Additionally, local should truly mean local. Fresh should mean made and baked from scratch each day. Therefore, we ensure that every product meets these high standards.
