Hello everyone,
Boy have we missed you all! It’s only been 3 weeks since we closed the doors for the final time at 1421 Pershore Road but it feels like a lifetime!
Our situation is much the same; we’re still waiting on the green light from SCD and a date that we can (finally) move in. This means we are trying to cut our costs as much as possible to ensure that we can survive this period of closure that might go on longer than expected.
(For those who are enquiring about courses please know that these WILL be up and running as soon as we are moved in and will be letting you know when this is - but we can’t schedule any dates until we have a move in date so hold tight!!)

Having said that, we do have some GOOD NEWS!! 🥳👏
LOAF are teaming up with Redditch based bakery STEAMHOUSE and Stirchley’s Verbena to serve hot and cold lunches to takeaway, freshly baked sourdough loaves, cinnamon and cardamom buns and our delicious Hot Cross Buns - just in time for Easter!!
We are so insanely grateful to Steamhouse and Verbena for offering up their spaces for us to use. Please go and show them all some love!!
Because this is quite unusual for us, we are starting with smaller numbers and see what makes sense during the next weeks.
For this time we are accepting lunch pre-orders via e-mail for Daal on Wednesday and the Focaccia Sandwich on Thursday. So if you want to be sure you get what you are after please send us an email to info@loaf.coop and check your inbox for a reply.
Cut-off time for all pre-orders is 10am on the day before pick up!
Click HERE to pre-order non lunch goodies or drop in Wednesday and Thursday between 12 and 3pm at Verbena - 1474 Pershore Road, Birmingham B30 2NT.
We are taking this week by week but are hoping this will be a weekly occurrence for a few weeks until we can move into our new home. We’ll be sending newsletters weekly to keep you updated and to send out the pre-order link.

We can’t wait to see all your faces and catch up with all of you again. We will also have a stall at Stirchley Community Market at Stirchley Baths on Saturday March 28th - so keep an eye out for that!!
See you v soon!!
