O
Bayley & Sage opened
in Wimbledon Village in the autumn of 1997. We are a speciality
food store selling over 2000 lines of great tasting food. We believe
that food should be as natural and as unprocessed as possible.
Think of an apple plucked off a tree and eaten straight away,
its crunchy, its juicy and sweet. We want all our food to be as
close to that experience as possible.
Our offering includes
an extensive delicatessen counter with over 130 cheeses, fresh
produce, an unusual and interesting range of breads, pasta from
Italy, a large range of oils, an olive bar, wonderful Italian
honeys, biscuits from France, Belgium, Spain, Italy and Britain,
fabulous coffees and fine wines.
We like to sell food not packaging. Taste the difference between Parma
ham freshly sliced from the deli and that bought in a gas sealed
packet. One is moist, sweet and melting the other is just …OK.
We sell unpasturised cheeses where the flavour is allowed to develop over time and
the cheese continues to mature and ripen. We allow our cheese
to breathe instead of enveloping them in plastic, which keeps
them sterile and tasteless. We delight in selling Poilane bread
– the traditional slow fermented French Sour Dough bread
by taking yesterdays dough and adding it today’s flour.
We only sell free range
meat grown in the British Isles and prepared by a Q Guild butcher.
Our fish is line caught of the Cornish Coast and sold in our store
the day after being caught. Our pasta is allowed to dry slowly,
our orange juice is freshly squeezed, our shortbread is made when
we place the order.
To complement the store
we also have a variety of hampers suitable for any occasion, whether
it be a birthday, engagement, anniversary, welcome home or traditionally
Christmas; they can be sent mail order direct to any address in
the UK.
Real
Food, Real Inspiration.
