About us
Bakers of Naturally Leavened Bread and French Pastries
The business started in 2010 when owner Jeremy MacCormack decided to bring his baker skills to his hometown.
Having worked in several bakeries in New Zealand and abroad, he felt that Christchurch didn’t have the same choice and quality when it came to bread and pastries. He started baking sourdough bread in a homemade oven in his backyard and would barter the resulting loaves with his neighbours. He then started experimenting with viennoiserie (croissants, Danishes…) and would take them to the Deans Bush farmers’ market (now Christchurch Farmers’ Market) and Opawa farmers’ market (now South Christchurch Farmers’ Market) on the weekend.
The demand for his high quality products grew quickly, and he started looking for a place where he could make and sell his products in a more permanent bakery setting.
In 2012 Bellbird moved into the newly restored Tannery complex in Woolston and, together with another business, opened a little bakery/café called Tanner Street Bakery. After 6 years Bellbird had outgrown its premises; time to move again! However, it didn’t go far: just to the other end of the Tannery boardwalk.
In 2021, Bellbird opened a second retail space at the Riverside Market in the heart of the city.
In 2025 we opened our newest shop on Holmwood Road in Merivale, where you’ll find our breads, pastries, sandwiches and barista-made coffee.
