Our philosophy In a world where many aspire to be like others and who think success is measured by material possessions we believe there’s another way.
Just as our sourdough starter needs nothing more than warmth and water to come alive, we see our bakers develop and grow as they hone their individual skills and follow their passion. The better they bake, the better they feel.
We believe fulfillment is achieved when you discover who you are, what you love to do and by having the desire to do it well. We each have natural talents and are happier when find, use and develop them.
Each bun, cake, coffee or crispbread is unique - an expression of the person who created it. Each member of staff, each supplier or craftsman who we select shares the same philosophy of being true to themselves and their values. This inspires who we work with, who we hire and how we do everything we do at Peter’s Yard.
Traditional Swedish Artisan Crispbreads
In addition to the coffee house and bakeries, we sell a small range of award winning , Swedish crispbreads top restaurants and leading specialist food retailers.We make our crispbread here in the UK using a traditional Swedish recipe with all natural ingredients, including sourdough, fresh milk, rye flour, wholewheat flour and honey. They are light, crisp, and wobbly and perfect with smoked salmon, artisan cheese and any number of sweet and savoury toppings. Each crispbread is as individual as the baker who crafts it.

Peter’s Yard crispbread has an affinity with all styles of cheese, but definitely it is the farmhouse hand made styles that really come into their own

“I’m addicted to @Petersyard crispbread. Running low on supplies and getting edgy.Must find a stockist close by soon”
We have a growing number of very loyal fans
A Scandinavian's cook's repertoire relies on using fresh seasonal ingredients as much as possible and serving proper bread be it the Swedish crisp-style bread that we had at
Trina's supper, made by the brilliant Swedish Bakery Peter's Yard, or a wholemeal, grainy loaf so beloved of Scandinavians which leaves you sated but not bloated.
These crispbreads are seriously good, the stuff of dreams in fact, and I have spent the last week or so experimenting with just what can be schmeared on them. Peanut butter gets a huge thumbs up, as unsurprisingly does cream cheese. Some nice crumbly Lancashire works a treat as does just topping them with runny scrambled eggs. I am already planning to order some more.
p.s. there's a great new bakery called Peter's Yard. They're a Swedish bakery based in Edinburgh but you can find their most
excellent crispbread at specialist delis, and of course at La Fromagerie. Look out for them, they're definitely one to watch as Scandinavian food conquers the world ;-)
