ALG Bakery in Newark and Sherwood - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Fresh great tasting bread & some of the best cakes I’ve tasted, the butterscotch tart is superb. Keep up the great work you do, especially in these extraordinary times.

This bakery has so many gluten free cakes and bread (for no extra price as they don’t believe in making gluten free people pay more) which are all lovely and fresh! Lots of great non glutenous food too! Lovely friendly staff who can’t do enough to help.

Hidden a bit out of centre near the Town Hall & Library, but you should search this bakery out. A wide range of bread and cakes all made and baked on the premises. Everything we had over 3 days was absolutely fantastic and at a very reasonable price, unlike the expensive and ordinary in the centre.

Excellent bakery, breads & cakes. Can have coffee etc there. I just bought bread & couple of sweet things

we were greeted with "we dont have a menu, pick what you like". what a loverly start. the food was good too. placed opposite the library and just down from the odeon cinema. a few steps or use the ramp. no toilets but they are available in the library.

Excellent bakery - everything is really fresh and very tasty. They make a range of breads suitable for special diets - high fibre/gluten free/lactose free/low fodmap etc. The staff and owner are really helpful and are happy to advise on the ingredients of all of their products.

The Review below is true. Very negative experience on Wednesday. My 7 yr old was brought to tears being told off for walking up the steps to the entrance. The man In the bakery behind the glass told him off, move off/ away. I was several steps behind carrying my nearly 2 yr old. No idea what he's done to get such reaction. So obviously I'm keen to know. We were met with hostility indicating the steps/ entrance are dangerous and that children have had bad accidents and that repairs were expensive. But even if he was climbing (but he wasn't nor causing damage or appearing to do so) - why so hostile. To then see other children walk as we had done without caution, to then also be followed down the street and pushed by the lady from the shop to lunge and loom over my 7yr old to tell him off was frankly intimidating and bullying. I've suggested they put up a sign if they don't want kids, at least it would be something to know what was expected of customers and pedestrians but they say signs don't work. Use a rigid sign, day-glo, stencils on the pavement? Something is better than nothing surely short of redesigning the steps. So any other unassuming customers like us - beware, the hazards and the hostility. Being a responsible parent we set rules so kids know when breached. Nevertheless the reaction was over the top and left a 7 yr old in tears. I'm sure they have their fans but I've retold the incident as objectively as i can. I've reached out to the owners who don't dispute the incident nor apologise for their hostile approach just claim the serious safety issue that their entrance presents - which i don't doubt - but why so aggressive?. And that they only had my child's safety in mind. But simply walking up steps does not warrant the hostility we experienced. It was the hostility we are upset by and something they don't even recognise. Perhaps anger management would be of use to them. But on the upside a lady who saw and heard it all ran after us to comfort my son that it wasn't his fault and see that i was ok too. We are new to Newark, shame one of our first views is tainted.

Ordered two large desserts for my sons surprise 18th family celebration. The desserts were absolutely delicious. Each served over 10 and every single crumb was eaten. Lovely people to deal with and extremely good value. Thank you

Scrumptious bread and patisseries! And you can text your orders up to 6pm! Corn bread loaves, cherry bakewells, jam tarts, macaroons and coffees!

Having visited here a few times I decided to write a revie won Trip Advisor only to find they are not on there. But great cakes, pastries and bread! Best sourdough I have ever had and the cater for all people (gluten-free etc.).
