A bakery on 16 B street in Al Quoz is drawing repeat weekend visits from residents looking for heavily laminated pastries and specialty sandwiches. Birch Bakery has established a local following with signature items like a layered turkey, cranberry, and brie sandwich, alongside its focus on freshly baked artisan breads.
Wildfarmed flour and laminated pastries
The bakery puts a lot of focus on craft production, explicitly noting the use of 100% Wildfarmed flour for its dough. The beautiful counter displays feature stacks of flaky croissants and distinct savoury pastries topped with ingredients like melted cheese, tomatoes, and jalapeños. Loaves of country sourdough and malted wheat sit on bright orange shelving directly behind the main service area.
For sweet options, the menu includes a dark, caramelized cinnamon toffee bun. A handwritten chalkboard outlines a broader daytime menu featuring the Birch Reuben sandwich, a breakfast focaccia bun, and several hot toasties, including a four-cheese option and a chili jam variation. The bakery also stocks canned independent beverages, such as ginger lemon drinks, to pair with the food.
The venue is set behind a custom white metal gate decorated with leaf motifs and the bakery’s logo. Inside, patrons sit in a modest outdoor courtyard equipped with simple wooden chairs and tables, shaded by a large canvas umbrella. Stacked red and yellow delivery crates sit near the seating area, maintaining a practical aesthetic that fits naturally into Al Quoz’s industrial neighbourhood.
