Gorse opens new café and bakery in Cornwall

The independent sourdough bakery Gorse has opened a new Cornwall-based café and bakery thanks to growing demand. It is in the newly developed business space at Lanteague, a community of studios for small businesses on the north Cornish coast.

Gorse became a hotspot in Newquay when the bakery opened in 2021, producing high-quality sourdough for café and restaurant clients around Cornwall. Consumer demand then allowed the owners to open a weekly counter at the site, selling a variety of baked goods.

Nat Galliano-Hale, co-owner of Gorse, said: “Since we started Gorse just after lockdown, it’s always been our dream to have a bigger location and invite customers to sit in. Thanks to the support of our local community and customers, we’ve now been able to grow as a business to get to this milestone, as well as creating six local jobs.”
