The story
Chatsworth Bakehouse in London began as a neighbourhood bakery when founders Sian Evans and Tom Mathews started baking sourdough loaves for locals during lockdown. What began as quiet community support quickly evolved into a consistently busy bakery. Five years later, the pair maintain their original standards despite sustained local demand. Their straightforward approach to bread and pastry has earned them a spot on The Good Food Guide 2026 as a Local Gem.
The daily offerings lean heavily on sturdy savoury bakes alongside carefully tested sweet finishes. Stacked focaccia sandwiches provide a reliable lunch option, while airy pizzas sold by the slice keep the counter moving through the afternoon. Pastry cases hold malted-milk maritozzi and pumpkin spiced doughnuts that rotate with the seasons. Every item reflects a commitment to balanced flavour rather than unnecessary complexity.
Customers typically navigate two nearby addresses on Anerley Road to access the full range. The primary site at number one twenty A operates strictly on pre-order collections from Wednesday through Friday. Saturday mornings shift the focus entirely to pizza slices baked fresh and served directly from the oven until four pm. A walking distance away, the second location handles casual walk-ins for those who prefer immediate service.
