Blacksmith Bakery is an artisan bakeshop started in historic Fort Langley, built on the original site of Reid’s blacksmith shop circa 1910. We create real food using traditional artisanal methods, baked fresh daily, on-site, in our open kitchen using locally sourced and seasonal ingredients. The hand forged viennoiserie, patisserie, cakes, eclairs, tarts, cookies, savouries, soups and gourmet sandwiches crafted by our passionate team are worth the trip. We love our coffee! Our baristas craft the finest range of espresso based coffee drinks using organic beans roasted by local artisanal roasters. We are proud to have four different locations to have our community come to visit us!

Blacksmith Bakery is committed to creating an inclusive environment where all team members and clients feel like they belong. All applicants are welcome to apply. Only those selected for an interview will be contacted.
