About Us

How Everything Started....

Source of Life is more than a bakery. It is a story—one that begins with a single grain of wheat and ends at the heart of the family table.

Our journey is rooted in Greece, where for over 20 years our family has worked with flour, time, and tradition. Bread has always been at the centre of our lives. Not rushed, not forced—allowed to rest, ferment, rise and transform. When we opened our first Source of Life bakery in East Barnet Village in 2020, in the midst of uncertainty, our purpose was simple: to tell the story of bread and share it with the community.

From seed to flour, from starter to dough, each loaf takes over 20 hours to become what it is meant to be. Slow-fermented sourdough, baked in-house every day. Artisan pastries made by hand. Sweet and savoury creations crafted with care, patience and respect for the process. Bread with a crackling crust, deep aroma and flavours meant to be shared—at breakfast, at lunch, at celebrations, in everyday moments. This is why we call it Source of Life.

Officially obsessed with the fresh bread here. I finally went in about a month a go and got some sourdough. I keep coming back every week and the loaf lasts not even a whole day in my house because it's so delicious!

While out on a walk, I stumbled upon a charming little bakery that instantly caught my eye. Stepping inside, I was greeted by a display full of exquisite pastries that instantly transported me to Paris memories. As a devoted coffee lover, I’ve tried countless cappuccinos—but this one stands out above the rest. It was smooth, perfectly balanced, and rich with the true flavor of the coffee beans—no bitterness at all. The experience was made even better by the warm, welcoming staff who greet every customer with a genuine smile. A beautiful spot of East Barnet Village
