Discover Our Story

Why bread?

Be it handcrafted sourdoughs or the ubiquitous naan, bread is not simply food; it transcends mere sustenance. From being used as currency in Egyptian times to sparking revolutions in France, bread is a timeless symbol of cuisine, culture and community woven into the fabric of life.

And we believe it can be all that again.

What's wrong with bread today?

Whether from a local bakery or your grandmother's kitchen, for millennia, bread was real food with real ingredients, made by real people. You used to know what went into it: flour, water, salt, and yeast.

Sadly, today, most breads have become insipid factory products. Not crafted, but manufactured. "Whole Wheat" bread is less wholesome in wheat and more loaded with chemicals and empty calories. In other words, it's just glorified air and sugar wrapped in fancy packaging.

'What about "Brown" bread?', you might ask.

Often touted as healthy, most brown bread is simply white bread in disguise, with added molasses or food colouring. Every slice you eat is essentially a petri dish of chemicals, and not even a tasty one at that!

Don't believe us? Just flip over your bread packaging and read the label. You might not recognize half the ingredients. Nor will your body.

And we are here to bring to you this delicious change!

Why us?

The industrial revolution fundamentally changed our relationship with bread. Now, we're sparking a new revolution - one that returns bread to its roots while embracing global traditions and bringing people together around the table.

The post-industrial bread era isn't just around the corner. It's here, in our ovens, every day.

Bread and better

Bring the world's best breads to your table

From crusty sourdoughs to pillowy focaccias, decadent brownies to buttery croissants, hearty soups to cheesy pizzas, you name it, we have it.

We constantly keep innovating and refining our recipes to bring out the best in flavours, textures, and taste. And sometimes, these innovations are sparked by our regulars themselves! Our crowd favourite Chocolate Fever Bomboloni is one such pastry that was introduced to our menu through a customer's request.

We are blessed to have the trust and support of a steady line of patrons who have stood by us right from the day we put up our first pop-up. Our focus is on indulging our customers with clean and tasty food. Their trust and enthusiastic response, in return, feeds us to keep maintaining that standard.

We're not just baking bread. We're reclaiming it.

Back to Basics

Flour, water, salt, yeast - nothing more

Every loaf baked in our ovens has the same underlying philosophy - flour, water, salt, yeast, honey, olive oil, all raw natural ingredients, nothing more. Not just breads, we ensure this principle trickles down to all our products - jams, pastries, cookies, cheese, meats and more.

Our products feature natural ingredients that are familiar and accessible, in your own kitchen. Emphasising quality is our priority, which takes precedence over shelf life. Hence, our breads might not last as long as store bought breads. But most likely you won't even let it last that long as it is so delectable!

All our breads are 100% free of preservatives, additives, stabilisers, and artificial flavouring or colouring. We strongly refrain from using palm oil or seed oils. The flour used for our breads is freshly milled-to-order from an exclusive local vendor in Himachal Pradesh.

We have gone far and wide to source the highest quality of ingredients, to give you the best of culinary delights.

We're not just baking bread. We're rethinking food, one loaf at a time.

Bonding over Bakes

Good food, great company, cosy ambience

This is the age of binge and binge-watch, with dozens of food delivery apps, hundreds of menu options from tons of cookie-cutter food factories. Somewhere in this hullabaloo, the charm of serving and sharing food with love and loved ones is getting lost.

At Bread and Brew, rediscover the joy of breaking bread with fellow enthusiasts. Cosy ambience, thoughtfully curated interiors, social seating and hearty platters. We have designed both our space and the menu to celebrate and rejoice in the spirit of community and companionship.

In an industry that is becoming increasingly nameless and faceless, we pride ourselves on putting people before brands.

We aim to set up a creative and personal growth-oriented workspace for our employees. We believe this would help them enthusiastically share their passion for food and service with our customers.

Rest assured, at B&B, you will always be served with a smile.

We're not just baking bread. We're crafting memories.

Our Founder

Whether it's the combustion of airplane fuels or the flames of a kitchen stove, our Founder and Head Baker, Mrs. Deepika Abraham, can face the heat with equal mastery and finesse. With a formal education in Aerospace Engineering, Deepika has always been an ardent foodie at heart. Though little did she know that a day would come when her venture would be a source of satisfaction and satiation to thousands of other foodies like her. As life took her through its mysterious pathways, it dawned on her that she would serve the world best wearing an apron over a lab coat.

What initially began as a kitchen experiment to satisfy her husband's lockdown cravings, slowly blossomed into a trusted neighbourhood home-run bakery. Meanwhile, Deepika also became a familiar face at many school and college pop-ups, and every single time her stands were wiped off clean by the end of the day. The increasing demand for her offerings led to investing in a professional baking unit and partnering with an online platform for taking up daily orders. As Deepika's bread rose to steady fame, she could not help but go deeper down the rabbit hole of global artisan bakes, cheeses, and seasonal jams, which also became a remarkable hit. She literally made the cake and ate it too!

With peaking sales, an expanding team and a flourishing loyal customer-base, the next obvious step for Deepika was to have a slice of the world of hospitality.

And lo and behold, Bread & Brew was born!
