Founded in 1976

the initial name for the shop was The United Metropolitan Improved Crumpet Baking & Punctual Delivery Company. Customers nodded, smiled and called us The Crumpet Shop. Over the years, the recipes have been perfected and the store has passed to new generations. The location, store, and menu remain largely unchanged.

What is a Crumpet?

Made with simple ingredients: flour, water and yeast, a Crumpet is an English griddle cake. They are cooked in round rings on the griddle and are distinguished from other similar baked goods by their holes and spongy texture.
