Bakers + Baristas in Fareham

Three stars purely because although the food was lovely, in my opinion £4.15 for a cupcake/muffin is over priced which is just one example of other over priced things on the menu for what they are. But everything in all other areas was really nice.

expensive, always a long queue, not worth waiting.

Good for people that don't have dietary needs. Looking at them they look gorgeous. Husband likes them. I hope one day they will have gluten free

Great little place for a stop for a good hot chocolate and cake.

Amazing muffins and bonus the coffee is good!! :)

Quality cakes, noisy location in precinct. Good all round atmosphere though. Highly recommend but avoid when busy!

Price has changed loads in the years since last visiting. Near £40 for 2 kids and 2 adults having a sweet and a drink. Muffins as always were amazing as are the hot drinks.

Friendly, helpful staff. Delicious muffins

Lovelynhot, tasty coffees and free cakes! Staff are efficient and friendly.

Enjoyed our hot chocolate and snack polite staff

Friendly and handy in the precinct

You can't beat a soothills pasty and pastries they're excellent.

Nice Bakers sandwich ok staff friendly That's it done

If you want good coffee or a cup of tea. Lovely cake or muffin. Toasted sandwiches friendly staff all you could want.

This is a long standing pretty popular cafe in the middle of the shopping mall. It is always busy. The stalls are clean and the variety of coffees are pretty good. I bought a panini(limited options) and coffee. The sandwich was heated up quickly with little wait when I was there. The quality of the bacon and mozzarella panini was okay. I was charged about £1.45 more than the marked price which I realised only later(contactless payment)I didn't bother going back as it is a petty amount of money and partly my mistake for not ensuring the right charge was applied at the till. This could have been a genuine mistake nevertheless my confidence in the business was lost.

Lovely muffins 😋 and nice and quiet place to be.

Food was very nice ,staff very friendly nice to see people with a smile ,coffee was ok don't know if it was me but coffee had a bitter taste but otherwise all good

Nice latte good service and cheaper than Costa

Sunday morning Latte and teacake. No queues on this occasion

A lovely little cafe with fab muffins. 👌

I plastic cup of passionfruit lemonade, (half cup was full of ice ) I mug of hot water with a tea bag in it. Milk for the tea. £6.25 !!!! Ridiculous .

Beautiful muffins. A bit pricey though. Lots of different flavours. Really nice coffee. Was a long queue so had to wait a while.

Decent coffee and friendly staff, a little slow/understaffed at times, but a good flat white. No extra charge for non-dairy milk is a really nice extra.

Have to say very disappointed they have none of the muffins available when they open. This has happened on numerous occasions. Otherwise the food and drinks are lovely.

I've worked in hospitality for over a decade so I know what it is like when you are busy, however, when you have a line of customers, with zero tables full, why on earth would you think it is acceptable to do dishes and clean when you have a row of hungry customers waiting? I've seen this happen almost every time I stop by, I felt bad for yhe younger girl doing all the drinks and operating the till but I had to leave without food or drink bc I have a limited break and the other person working is just mulling about without a care in the world, this has happened like 3 times to me over the past few weeks and I'm frankly fed up, the older colleague working there has no concept of customer service whatsoever.

Food was fine but the tables are rather crowded in

Had lunch here and the staff was friendly and helpful and very quick service. The food is really tasty too. My little girl loved the sausage roll whi h they heated as well.

Very dry scone, frozen butter, couldn't spread the butter on the scone which crumbled to bits when I tried so I ended up with a plate full of crumbs and frozen butter. Very expensive too. Will not bother with them again.

Coffee was good. Croissants are very nice compared to Costa! Better coffee and better food than other chains BUT the Staff doesn't seem happy at all. Nonchalant. Not one smile.

Just had another lovely latte. Service good although not to busy today. No food ordered hence no rating.

Ordered at 12.05pm received (finally) at 15.25!! I asked the delivery guy why it took 3 hours 20 minutes to arrive and he replied with “sorry it was the traffic”. You could walk it in an hour…

I visit here quite frequently (a bit more than I should) love their muffins I always like to try them when they have different flavours, I like their baguettes, today I had a warmed up sausage in a roll it was quite tasty, I've also tried there flatbreads mmmm very nice, hot chocolate is always very tasty, very recommended. They have gluten free options and alternatives to dairy milk.

Always know what you will get every time you go to any of their cafes Good drinks and food

I’m not happy with the coffee I order ice cappuccino with a woman in the shop , but she made hot one for me and then I ask her that isn’t ice cappuccino after that she pour hot one to new cup and add some more ice , I did wonder why she not make new one for me , it look like ice latte more then ice cappuccino.

Food was nice and delivered early however I did ask for no mustard in the notes as you can’t modify it on the app….. and it turned up with mustard on!!

Food from here is absolutely lovely & the cupcakes are gorgeous.

Lovely coffee friendly helpful staff

Lovely coffee.Their own blend that they also sell , so am picking up a bag to use at home. Nice fresh muffin to go with it before a big shop ! Lol

Half a cup of very milky tasteless coffee for £3.50. Won't be going again, wasn't the first visit, normally OK.

i love this place too .. one of the places i always seem to end up , it may be a little more expensive but it is worth it , the toasties are tasty and the muffins are huge and lovely , friendly service and if you are a regular like me , you every so often recieve your order for free ,if its a hot drink and muffin , you get it free , so remember to use your bbs loyalty cards as well . it really does make the day out more specail .

Nice venue, some cheerful staff but not all. Sausage bap was good but a bit like a goldfish bowl.

BBs is like a family run, open plan Costa right at the heart of Fareham shopping centre. It's bright, its clean, the staff are quick and friendly and the muffins are excellent. You'll have to get in early for blueberry though because they're very popular and they only make 12 on a Saturday apparently. I can vouch for the apple and raspberry though if they've run out and my son practically inhaled the double choc one along with his hit chocolate drink. The coffee wasn't excellent but it was good, better than Costa and enjoyable. What I like about BBs (besides the muffins) is the atmosphere. There's the hubbub of foot traffic all around on a busy Saturday morning but because it's an open plan affair the noise is kind of muted. You can have a decent conversation without shouting and still feel like you have enough privacy to chat and the lighting is bright but not harsh. There's lots going on in the busy shopping centre - BBs sits at a 4 way crossroads so there's plenty to look at people watching. And there was no pressure to move when we had finished either, we sat and chatted for probably an hour before we moved. No hassle, no bother. I really like the place. Summary: Great muffins, good coffee, nice atmosphere for a meet up and a chat and right in the heart of Fareham.

Terrible coffee, I drink mine black and this was muddy brown and bland

Conveniently placed for a quick pitstop whilst shopping, with great coffee and snacks and friendly staff.

Good hot drinks and friendly staff

Nice place to chill out and eat but a little pricy for what you get.

It’s my wife’s 60th Birthday and she asked for her favourite cake. Had the most delicious carrot cake delivered in perfect condition and on time! I definitely recommend Baker+Baristas!!

Gorgeous muffins cakes rolls made on premises. Barista coffees, babychino (milk), chocolates. Great food and drink.

I forgot about this place! The most yummy apple and raspberry crumble muffin and delicious well balanced flat white. I could sit here all day😂 Plenty of seating ,lovely and clean in airy surroundings. What makes a place all the better is of course the friendly , and smiling staff. Praise for Bev, who cheered me up, and recommended the perfect muffin for my poorly firend. Would you believe it they serve a muffin Victoria sponge muffin....perfect. Thanks Bev☺ Tip. Come early the muffins taste even more gorgeous when lovely and warm from the oven

Nice paninis and cup of tea, delicious

Very good lovely staff. Missed coming here.

Great choice of coffee and muffins

Lovely latte and the banoffee muffin was delicious 😋

Favourite place for coffee and they do really nice muffins. Great service as well. Always clean.

Love having a coffee and a cake, friendly staff

Lovely coffee and Banoffee Muffin.

They make a good range of gluten free cakes. The staff are always polite and the cafe is always very clean

First class service and coffee. Very friendly, and reasonable price

I love the amazing collection of cakes, sandwiches, sausage rolls etc and hot or cold drinks.

You need a sweet touth. Very nice.

Stopped in for breakfast, delicious as always, would be great if they had a larger selection of vegan products available.

Delicious food and always go here for a treat. Friendly staff and they know how to get the best customers. When someone seems to be rude towards staff, they are very nice about it. It is amazing here and I always recommend!

Friendly service with a good tasting coffee and at a reasonable price highly recommend

Great service, favourite coffee in the area. Lovely muffins!

Lovely muffin but hot chocolate was to warm for me!

Friendly and quick service at the time I called. Clean and comfortable seating area in the middle of the shopping mall.

I ordered a gluten free muffin from here. Either I was given a ‘normal’ one or they do not understand contamination.

Good food snacks, muffins are excellent & good service.

Friendly staff, good service and lots of options. Love the mini cupcakes for the kids - a perfect treat!

Orders coffee for me and dad both where cold but the lady's are very nice

Just what's needed when shopping lovely coffee and great food

Great service friendly helpful staff great muffins along with our coffee.

The best coffee and muffins in town. As a bonus gluten free muffins that are as good as the 'normal' ones

Lovely little place for a quick snack there muffins are fantastic especially the Christmas ones pity they only come out at Xmas friendly staff

As a trained barista myself it was the worst latte i have ever had . Asked for 1 large and 1 small was given 2 small . ask for caramel syrup in both mine and my husband there didnt seem to be any . The latte was very weak and bitter . Tables cluttered with used crockery etc staff did not seem to be bothered to get them cleared .

Nice coffee and cakes. Very slow service

قهوه جميله ومكان جميل لاخذ كوب قهوه وسويت وتمتع بالطعم وتوجد لديها خيارات لذيذه

Excellent muffins and lovely staff

Timing of visit: Friday 01/03/2019, 15:40-16:05. Order: A strawberry donuts and a regular mocha coffee. Price: £4.70. Quality of cake: Marvelous. Quality of beverage: Great. Staff: Polite. Environment: This cafe reminded me of the cafe in Goethe-Institut in Athens (Greece).

Was good little pit stop for Drinks!!!!

Good quality food, friendly staff, good atmosphere

Gorgeous cakes although too much for me. Staff are great

Fab coffee and cake in the centre of town

Disappointed missed out part of the order had to be reminded

Lovely coffee and friendly service

Well located in the centre of the shopping centre. Which means the queue can be huge at the weekend. I always suspect that they need more staff. The food has always been good. Muffins, cupcakes, paninis, sandwiches. I opt for the coffee but have had the milkshakes and they are tasty. I'd say the only downside is the queue. Which more than once has put me off

Love the muffins. Really nice place to go for coffee and a sandwich. No hot food but the muffins make up for that. Staff are lovely.

Lovely service nice food and coffee

Lovely to sit and rest weary legs with a good cup of coffee and a toasted sandwich. Prices are reasonable.

Really like stopping for a coffee here. The staff are brilliant, extremely helpful. It's good to see it's not the same as the big conglomerates of Starbucks and Costa. You'll not be sorry if you stop here and take a break.

Terrible service. Very long wait, just to be served by a rude barista. Not worth the effort ans the money.

If you like to queue, this is the place to come. Good coffee, though.

Slow, overpriced and coffee quality is better at Macdonald's
