Welcome to Daly Bread
My award-winning micro bakery in Isleworth
My name is Brenda Daly. I am the founder, the baker and chief washer-upper at Daly Bread, Isleworth’s very own micro-bakery. I run my award winning artisan bread bakery and small teaching school from my home in Old Isleworth, West London where I have baked since 2017.
I am passionate about providing good honest bread to my local community and sharing my knowledge of breadmaking with you. I bake to order using high-quality ingredients such as organic flour from Shipton Mill in the Cotswolds.
The Bread Shed
In 2020 I moved to a new home in Old Isleworth with a bigger garden and a good-sized summerhouse which is where I now bake from. We affectionately call this The Bread Shed.
It has been developed to replicate a home kitchen – with a bit more space for all my bread paraphernalia – and space to welcome you on a cosy breadmaking course. Bread courses will resume in autumn 2021.
Daly Bread Club
For those who like to plan ahead and guarantee a fresh sourdough loaf is waiting for them each week. Order once at the beginning of the month and your bread wishes will be fulfilled!

Buy my Bread
Browse my bakery to see what I’m baking each week (or sign up to my newsletter to be kept up-to-date), order and pay for your goods. I bake to order every Thursday and occasional special bakes on other days including Old Isleworth Market (see below). Order by Tuesday 9pm for Thursday bake and collection from my home in Old Isleworth or get in touch to discuss other options.
I run the bread stall at the monthly Old Isleworth Market based at Shrewsbury Walk, Old Isleworth TW7 7DE from 10-2pm where you will also find a selection of stalls that sell locally produced / sourced fudge, cakes, jams, chutneys, olives, curry, cheese, fish, flowers, plants plus art, craft, jewellery and environmentally friendly products.
I normally have a selection of sourdough, babka, brioche, buns and focaccia and other bakes…although be warned it is best to order ahead as I usually sell out within the first couple of hours.
The market will be back in February 2022. Dates will be confirmed shortly.
Country Sourdough
Made over a 2 day period with organic wheat, wholemeal and rye flour from Shipton Mill, my special rye starter and a little salt. A full bodied Sourdough with a wholesome taste. It's completely vegan too! A great everyday loaf. You will not need a lot to keep you going unlike some breads available elsewhere. Order yours today!! Also available as part of the Daly Bread Club - order at the beginning of the month for your 4 week's of sourdough.
Chocolate Hazelnut Babka
Chocolate Hazelnut in a sweet enriched dough. It's been a long month and you deserve this!
Knotted Buns Chocolate Hazelnut
A cute hand knotted bun with a good helping of chocolate hazelnut filling. Wonderful weekend treats!
100% Rye Sourdough
A nourishing sourdough made with 100% dark rye flour, salt and water. For extra sweetness and depth of flavour I can add a little black treacle, molasses, honey or agave. Or perhaps a combination, or individual, seed inclusions such as sesame, poppy, chia or sunflower seeds? Let me know at the time of ordering if you would like any of these.
