    <<19th June 2024 – Hong Kong>> A modern sustainable bakery by day and neighbourhood restaurant and wine bar by night, The Baker & The Bottleman brings a refreshing take on quintessential British bakes at the gourmet and lifestyle oasis of Wan Chai’s Lee Tung Avenue since its opening in January 2022. With Head Baker Helene Ng and team, The Baker & The Bottleman is proud to unveil 20 new sweet and savoury pastries, sandwiches and baked good creations available for dine-in down and upstairs and takeaway.

    Striving to embody founder Simon Rogan’s ethos, the bakery places sustainability at the core of its concept, emphasising locally sourced ingredients, artisanal techniques, and eco-friendly practices. Embracing a strong British heritage through traditional baking methods and flavours, each item produced in-house from scratch by the bakery’s skilled bakers and chefs reflects a commitment to quality and authenticity. Mindful of the environment, The Baker & The Bottleman aims to reduce packaging waste by encouraging the use of reusable bags, coffee cups, and minimal packaging, all of which are either recyclable or compostable, with some crafted from organic or recycled cotton. Dedicated to supporting local and small-scale producers, the bakery takes a conscious approach to sourcing ingredients from nearby farms and producers.
