The Cornish Bakery Anmeldelser 

Beautifully clean bakwry and the staff are very friendly
Lovely coffee beautiful taste and lovely latte art too
Nothing is to much trouble for the staff here
Always call in when I the outlet village at Caledonia... would highly recommend the bakery

We’re at Braintree Outlet. No plates to serve food, The dishwasher had broken down. We were given napkins. Had to put our brown sauce on the napkin. All a bit messy. Wooden cutlery. Surely a member of staff could have purchased some paper plates!! Staff standing around. The Cornish Pasty was dry and tasteless, very disappointing. The coffee was good though.

nut all over my glazed donut and there was crabs and lice mixed with the minced meat but the out of date capri sun was chill

Went in today to lewes Cornish bakery with my two children one that’s autistic, Louise the manager could see i was nervous and approached us, she made us feel welcome and comfortable.
All the staff are very welcoming even when it’s extremely busy.
Food was delicious, staff welcoming can’t speak highly enough!

Visited branch in Betws-y-Coed yesterday for traditional pasties. Best we’ve tasted outside Cornwall so completely disagree with previous comment on pasties eaten here. Also great to be able to help yourself to water & utilise bathroom facilities when public toilets charge a ridiculous 50p each for the privilege!

It's 12noon and not very busy. Just paid for a pistachio crossiant & other things. Crossiant very dry, asked for it to be warmed slightly to remove the dryness. After paying £4 for a dry crossiant that falls apart in the middle but dry and crisp in the ends. Maybe it's just bad luck to get a burnt crossiant. Maybe ask them to give you a fresh one first.

had a lovely day at Bourton on the water, and enjoyed some fantastic coffee. a shout out to the lovely lady with the glasses who was very accommodating and polite despite the rudeness from other customers. not something i could deal with on a daily basis!

Nottingham branch - Looked ok from outside, and fancied a proper pasty and cup of tea. Sadly, very disappointing. The pasty was dry, almost tasteless apart from pepper, and the pastry was tough. One of the worst shop bought pasties I have eaten.
The loo was dirty, smelly, and had flies.
Will not be going back.

Bowness on Windermere- tried to visit for coffee and fruit scone very disappointed place was not busy but the tables that were available were full of dirty dishes, seats and floor were filthy. Not once did anyone ask if they could help left not wishing to eat in such a dirty place . Over heard a member of staff saying to someone a new manager was starting next week , good luck with your job you have a major task in front if you to get this place sorted out .

Brought 6 pasties from their Beverly shop and not one had any swede in them .
Arn't Cornish pasties made of potato,steak and SWEDE !!
Nice pastry though, but won't be buying any more

Betws-y-Coed
Delicious coffee and cakes. Staff had a great attitude, helpful and customer focused. Huge queue outside was a tell-tale sign that it was going to be good.

We visited 29 April 2026. Ordered a Ploughman's platter for 2 cost £18.50, first they brought us a cheese platter, told server this was incorrect, it was taken back, then she brought another us a different cheese platter, finally she brought us a "ploughman's platter", which was inedible, ham hock covered in sea salt, 4 triangles of Toast, no butter, a triangle of cheese which was to creamy had no taste, a handful of withered grapes, withered lambs lettuce a handful of gurkins oh and some sort of savoury roll. I do have a photo of "the Ploughman's "

Awfull Cornish pasty from the new bakery in Betws y Coed (North Wales). The meat was a rolled up burger!! ( a big dollop of beef mince) wrapped in potatoe! The worst pasty we have ever had! Not a traditional Cornish pasty! The croissants were ok, but Tesco Finest croissants are much better. Personally- I wouldn’t waste your money here. Nothing to rave about that’s for sure! They won’t last long!!

The best authentic Cornish pasty I have had, it was the traditional which was packed full of meat and was wonderfully peppery, made my damp visit to tintagel worth it, staff were lovely too.

We were the first to experience the Cornish pudding making class at the Newbury branch and it was amazing! Tiffany was excellent and gave us so much knowledge and we went home with lots of yummy treats. I will definitely return to the cafe, everyone was so welcoming!

New shop opening in Betws-Y-Coed, walked past and noticed wonderful cakes, but staff training in process. Later on lady approached us with bags of produce as training completed. Wonderful pastries and savoury tarts would recommend and looking forward to future visits.

Recently visited the bakery in Looe. No problem at all with the quality of the food but shocked that as I stood there waiting for my order I watched staff bin so much of what was left! Why not reduce it or donate it? Wasting food when so many are in need is just wrong.
I will no longer purchase anything from this chain.

Quality pastries and beverages and excellent customer service at your business in Swanage, Dorset, this after.

As a former worker who quit bcs of the mistreatment of the Cornish Bakery(For legal reasons won’t name myself) I’d like to highlight/make all customers/coaches who stop here aware of how they treat their staff behind the scenes as someone who worked there for 11 months.

It started slowly, small issues like changing letting us have breaks in the office instead in the stuffy crowded storage area and to sit on a wheeled stool for breaks or to sit in the crowded restaurant, yet managers are able to?

The app they use Fourth, would often kick us out of it and if you didn’t know/recall your login you didn’t know your schedule and would be made to change your password to access it. Had to do this at least 7-8 times in my experience working here.

If you’re not particularly social/don’t like talking to others you get penalised for ‘standing around’ when others stand and talk and you take a moment break.

For the last 4-5 months have had hours cut/taken from me along with other staff, on one occasion even had Donna report me to HR for refusing to come in after she took the hours from me, then gave them back and confused me, to which she denied this as ‘rubbish.

None of the workers except the mangers have contracts, we’re all on 0 hours which feels like the management and Caledonia in general’s way of sneakily loopholing to take hours from staff to shift them to their schedule liking. We also would get barely a day notice sometimes, just a simple text asking to work the next day sometimes, in my case, once or twice at least.

Finally the real finisher was when I came into work the 28-29th Donna had a tight attitude of me not working the hours I refused because of how confusing it was to be given them, then taken back, then gave them again?? Little regard to this and she verbally screamed at me both days for this and got sent home with only being in work barely 10 minutes on Saturday.

Hoped a fresh start would happen Sunday, it did not, Donna had the cheek to try to force me to sign a legal document to HR stating I yelled at her first(I have Nicola & Hannah as witness, she started this, only they wouldn’t speak out for fear of retaliation I imagine.) I refused to and after some more raising her voice at me I gave up and quit, she followed me into the storage area as I was putting my jacket on to try to get me to sign the document stating I started the yelling which I refused and left.

The management will happily throw its workers under the bus for quick buck of its customers yet will rant about those same customers in the back(Even Donna has, to our faces, amongst others) and will give them unclean cutlery/dishes when we run out that aren’t even put through dishwasher, just hand scrubbed for a few seconds. I advise all coaches/shoppers of Caledonia or if you frequent Caledonia Park to avoid this chain, they are mistreating staff and will continue to do so from experience.
