Liverpool Vienna Bakery Kirkland Brothers

The Liverpool Vienna Bakery Kirkland Brothers is a former bakery located on 13 Hardman Street in Liverpool, England.

Robert Kirkland, born at Airdrie in 1853, gave up banking to join his brother in this baking and catering business. He was chairman and also chairman of Fletcher's, Limited, in Birmingham. He was given a royal warrant of appointment as baker to Queen Victoria, with authority to use the Royal Arms, and he was also baker to the Emperor of Austria and the King of Spain. He was President of the National Association of Master Bakers in 1890-91.

The bakery continued to exist until the 1970s and was turned into a pub "Fly in the Loaf" in the late 1990s.

The exterior of the former bakery featured in The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles episode "Love's Sweet Song (Ireland 1916).
