Tapa coffee & bakehouse
Visit Tapa organic for great organic breads and cakes
Our excellent organic breads, tarts and cakes are made by hand from the finest organic ingredients at our bakery in Glasgow. We are certified organic by the Soil Association and you can be confident that our products are free of artificial flavours, bulking agents and chemical “improvers” - we don’t use anything you wouldn’t use at home.
You can buy direct from the bakery or the coffeehouse – both are open 7 days – from selected retailers and from the Partick farmers' market
Our award-winning cafe is open seven days for freshly prepared food and excellent coffee.
We stock a selection of organic groceries, and freshly roasted coffee beans from our sister company, Tapa coffee
We run baking classes from time to time – please check the events section of our facebook page for details.
We make everything ourselves from scratch and you won't find unnecessary additives or cheap fillers in our products.
Our flavourful breads are made made by skilled bakers to unique recipes. They are naturally low in salt and yeast, and most have no added fat. We make wheat free breads too.
Tapa loaves have lots of time to rise, giving the sourdoughs and yeasts lots of time to break down the gluten in the dough and release the nutrients because nutrition is what you want from a staple food like bread.
Over at the roasterie, some of the world's finest coffees make their way into our gas-fired roaster. Try one of our single estate or co-op grown coffees, or our punchy espresso blend. We can grind your beans right for your coffee maker.
Baking classes
Tapa organic runs great baking classes for small groups. Give your home baking a lift with one of our intensive, hands-on classes. With only four participants, the classes are good for beginners and more experienced bakers alike. Good bread, good skills, good fun.
