A popular Liverpool bakery has been serving generations of customers in the city for 65 years.
Originally opening in the late 1950s, The Bread Shop Bakery has been a familiar sight on Aigburth Road for decades, welcoming hundreds of loyal customers through its doors. The business was first set up by Len Gordon and operated more as a grocery store in its early years, before adapting to sell bakery items made on site and more.
The family business is now in its third generation of owners after Len's grandson, Alan, took over The Bread Shop Bakery around 15 years ago. As part of the Liverpool ECHO's How It Used To Be series, we spoke to owner Alan Gordon about the last 65 years in business and how life on Aigburth Road has changed around it.
