Little Sourdough Kitchen offers Valentine's bakes Feb 14-15 ahead of March opening

Little Sourdough Kitchen in Fulham is rolling out limited-edition Valentine's bakes on February 14 and 15 as a tasting preview ahead of a full seven-day relaunch on March 1, giving locals a first look at new recipes under fresh leadership.

The artisan bakery at 237 Munster Road, London SW6 6BT reopened at the end of January following a change in ownership and a refurbishment. The business, which has served the local community for eight years, was acquired by chef Phil Howard and restaurateur Julian Dyer. The new leadership team also includes Anna Konig and Ben Costello, who will help steer menu and service changes while aiming to preserve the bakery’s traditions and introduce enhancements.

For Valentine's weekend the shop will offer three headline items alongside its regular breads and pastries. On the special menu is a Chocolate Choux Bun filled with buckwheat Crème Diplomat, chocolate ganache and salted butter caramel, plus an Iced Vanilla and Einkorn Shortbread. The bakery’s Instagram post also teases a Valentine’s sourdough loaf: "This special Valentine's Day sourdough loaf combines sweetened dough, chocolate, and strawberries This is a new flavor combination so I" (post truncated). These are described as limited-edition themed bakes available in-store on the two Valentine’s dates.

Regular service will ramp up from March 1, when Little Sourdough Kitchen plans to resume operations seven days a week and continue serving its range of artisan breads and pastries. Customers can expect additional offerings such as new heritage loaves and seasonal products as part of the refreshed menu and schedule.

Practical details readers need to know: the Valentine’s items are only scheduled for 14–15 February at the Munster Road shop, and the address is 237 Munster Road, London SW6 6BT. The shop’s post-reopening operations began in late January, with a full seven-day cadence starting on March 1. For updates, photos and potential ordering details, check the bakery’s Instagram and social channels.

What this means for the community is continuity with a twist: a familiar neighborhood bakery returns with new hands on the starter and ambitious seasonal baking on the boil. If you plan to pick up a Valentine’s bake or sample the new heritage loaves in March, verify opening hours and pre-order options on the bakery’s Instagram or by visiting the shop in person — those specifics have yet to be confirmed publicly.
