Our story began back in 1861 when Paddy Blanchfield was baking bread and pouring beer on the Coast for the miners at Pipers Flat up until 1892 when he relocated to the new bakery site at Guinness Street.

​

Blanchfield's Bakery is a traditional bakery which is still in the same family, currently owned and operated by Chris and Alison Blanchfield, with the help of son Matt (6th Generation) and daughter-in-law Sarah. 

​

This makes us the oldest operating bakery in New Zealand! Pretty cool huh?

​

We make all of our own products with top quality ingredients and locally sourced products wherever possible. 

​

We offer a great selection of award winning pies, filled rolls, cakes and slices and so much more.

​

Looking to dine in? We have an adjoining cafe that offers an incredible array of cabinet food, a full breakfast and lunch menu and of course the smoothest coffee (Jack's Coffee) you will find supplied by Imbibe on Shoreline!
