Tina's Corner Bakery

It is unusual to find an authentic bakery nowadays – so much bread is baked in factories or supplied frozen to be back-baked in a shop. Tina’s is a traditional bakery, where goods are baked every day with flour yeast and water. It is tucked away in a less well know part of Longridge, but well worth a visit.

You will find great bread – both traditional and speciality loaves, such as olive and tomato – as well as pies, plain, cream and fruit cakes, and a loyal clientele of regulars, who also like Tina's oat biscuits and freshly made sandwiches.

Tina, who has been baking since she left school, took over from previous owner John Sidgreaves, who had the bakery for 27 years and acquired it from founder Mrs Bigley, who started the business in 1934.

Food for thought...

• This is one of the few places that you can lay your hands on traditional Goosnargh cakes, hand-baked daily to a special recipe. More a shortbread than a cake, they are flavoured with caraway and traditionally eaten at Whitsun. Tina’s mouth-watering Goosnargh Cakes have been featured on television.
