Why it's worth checking out
Sonoma Braddon brings Sonoma’s artisan baking to Braddon, Canberra, with a focus on sourdough made carefully rather than quickly. The bakery says each loaf takes 36 hours to produce, reflecting its emphasis on time, technique and quality. Bread is available in store, with the range including Sonoma Mission, Sonoma Miche and Ancient Grain Sourdough.
The story behind the baking is part of the appeal. Sonoma was founded by Andrew Connole, and its history reaches back to the late 1940s, when a young boy began in a country bakery. That long connection to baking sits alongside a stated care for the details, including the sourcing of ingredients and the way the bread is made.
This is a useful stop for anyone looking for thoughtfully made sourdough in central Canberra, whether picking up a loaf for home or exploring Sonoma’s artisan range. The available information centres on the bread itself rather than describing the shop’s interior or broader dining experience, so it is best approached as a bakery focused on handcrafted loaves and consistent quality.
