Popular bakery relocates to meet growing demand in Aberdeen

The beloved bakery shifts to Shiprow to enhance production capacity and serve customers better.

Aberdeen’s culinary scene is buzzing with excitement as Shot ‘N’ Roll, a beloved bakery known for its delectable cinnamon rolls, announces its relocation from Victoria Road to Shiprow. This move comes in response to overwhelming demand and the need for increased production space.

From humble beginnings to rapid expansion

Since its inception in the Trinity Centre last year, Shot ‘N’ Roll has quickly become a favorite among locals and visitors alike.

The bakery’s unique offerings, including a variety of cinnamon rolls paired with artisanal coffees and drinks, have captured the hearts of many. The recent opening of their Victoria Road location in May was met with enthusiastic support from the community, particularly school pupils and residents, who often found themselves queuing out the door during peak hours.

Addressing the challenges of growth

As the bakery’s popularity soared, it became clear that more space was essential to accommodate the increasing number of customers.

In a recent social media announcement, Shot ‘N’ Roll revealed that the Torry location would transition into a production-only facility, allowing them to focus on baking while relocating the customer-facing operations to Shiprow. The decision was made after careful consideration of various options, ultimately leading to the conclusion that expanding their footprint by 30% was necessary to sustain growth.

Commitment to the community

Despite the changes, Shot ‘N’ Roll remains dedicated to the Torry community. The bakery has pledged to continue its involvement by sponsoring the Greyhope School football teams, providing kits for the upcoming season. In their announcement, they expressed heartfelt gratitude to their supporters in Torry, emphasizing their commitment to maintaining a strong community presence.

As Shot ‘N’ Roll prepares for this exciting new chapter, customers can look forward to an enhanced experience at the Shiprow location, where they will continue to enjoy the same delicious offerings that have made the bakery a local favorite. The move not only signifies growth for the business but also highlights the vibrant food culture in Aberdeen, where local establishments are thriving and evolving to meet the needs of their patrons.
