The Hare & Hounds Bakery
Cowbridge

We were born out of the first lockdown in March 2020. Our pub, Hare & Hounds in Aberthin has always been known for its delicious homemade bread; when we went into lockdown we borrowed a food trailer off a friend, and started selling our breads, pastries and sandwiches to the villagers of Aberthin and the people of Cowbridge.

Owner Tom has always had his eye on this building, ever since his beloved Grandma Anna sold food from the Tamarind here many years ago. It seemed almost serendipitous that it became available at such a stressful time for our industry, and so we went for it.

We’re selling delicious breads to takeaway, along with coffee, pastries and sandwiches. We also offer breakfast, brunch and lunch to dine in, alongside the best local soft drinks and homemade freshly squeezed juices.

We now sell vouchers in the bakery in multiples of £5 and £10 (also available to purchase online)…the perfect gift for the Hare & Hounds Bakery lovers in your life. Pop in to buy yours now.

Food

We make as much as we can here in our small kitchen, from homemade cookies, cakes and brownies, to our own ricotta, jam and brown sauce. Even our delicious hot chocolate is made from scratch.

All produce is from the best local suppliers, from seasonal fruit and vegetables, to local eggs and meat. As we all know, the Vale has some of the best produce that Wales has to offer. We also get fruit, vegetables and salad from our smallholding in Aberthin, just behind the pub.
