About Semla the Bakery

Semla the Bakery is a Swedish microbakery in Seaford, and the people who've been through the door tend to come away already planning their next visit. The focus is small batch sourdough and Scandinavian treats, all handmade and baked fresh daily with local, seasonal and organic ingredients.

Locals rave about the cinnamon buns and twists, the seeded rolls and the house loaf, with one person calling it out of this world. The pastries come across as fresh and not overly sweet, and we've heard there's a vegan option too. The coffee gets a good word, and the staff are friendly. One local did wish for more savoury choices, but the sweet and savoury mix otherwise goes down well.

Bread delivery is available, along with takeaway. The shop keeps limited days, so check the hours before you head over.
