Hand-picked, by Eleni

Every ingredient is individually chosen by our cook and co-founder. No wholesale compromise, no bulk shortcuts.

02

Genuinely chemical-free

No stabilisers, no preservatives, no corner-cutting. The same food we cook to feed our own children.

03

Made by hand, in Reading

Phyllo hand-rolled on a traditional wooden board, family recipes from Greece and Cyprus. A home kitchen, not a factory.

Our story

A family kitchen,a table of our own.

Bread & Olive is the food we cook to feed ourselves and our children — the same quality goes to every customer. Every ingredient is picked by hand, every recipe carries a story from Greece or Cyprus.
