Hobz Bakery
Lothians, Edinburgh - Bakery & Café
*Matt and Julianna are moving to the East Neuk of Fife and plan to reopen their bakery there in 2026*
Though Hobz was born out of founder Matthew Mallia's passion for creating exceptional wholegrain bread, there's a lot more to love than their excellent loaves. Their core range of pastries features deliciously sticky cinnamon buns, made with their own croissant dough and glazed with a lemon and blossom-honey syrup, while savoury bakes may include the likes of a decadent Cheddar, honey roast ham, sauerkraut and roasted onion mayo pastry. Come Christmas, get in line for their excellent Sicilian orange-peel and bergamot panettone, and hope that their Colomba di Pasqua, made with raisins soaked in Earl Grey tea, returns this Easter.
