The Altrincham.co.uk verdict
There's seemingly always a queue at MOST, but with bread this good, it's hardly surprising. Its Multiseed Sourdough was crowned Britain's Best Seeded Sourdough in 2026, although our personal favourites are the cheese and chilli loaf and the Pugliese. And then there are the almond croissants, which may well be the largest ever created. You can now get your MOST fix at move Altrincham too.
