Can you smell the croissants and bread?

Chestnut Bakery Riyadh is now open at Pure Center. 

The bakery officially opened on Tuesday February 21 at the Al Mohammadiyah location.

If you love carbs, listen up. Chestnut Bakery is all about celebrating the “golden age of bread making” by perfecting the basic supermarket bread loaf and incorporating international baking traditions.

Chestnut Bakery Riyadh is one of the new additions to Riyadh’s ever-growing bakery scene. It marks the first time that the London-based bakery is expanding internationally and coming to Saudi. The popular bakery has locations in London’s Covent Garden and posh upscale Belgravia, and is known for its freshly baked aromas of pastries, bread and more.

We’re hoping to see popular Chestnut Bakery menu items like sourdough loaves, bagels, croissants, and savoury dishes like melted cheese sandwiches at the Saudi location.

Additionally, we’re eager to tuck into the many flatbread options such as burrata with burnt honey, sesame and fennel seeds and sides and dips including olive hummus and plancha grilled avocado.

Chestnut Bakery Riyadh is also offering a variety of desserts including tahini cookies and banana and walnut loaf bread, that should be perfect with a warm cup of coffee or steaming English Breakfast tea. Are you feeling peckish yet?
