Birds in Derby

My husband and I went to buy something the other day, after that we didn't get off the toilet and it took us "of the job" for 2 whole days. I noticed that this bakery in our area already has a bad reputation. I won't go here anymore and I don't recommend it.

On Thursday 14th November 2024, my family of 5 - 2 x adults, 1 x 11 year old, 1 x 8 year old and 1 x 3 year old - purchased lamb and mint pasties and a sausage roll. Four of them ended up with food poisoning with both vomiting and diarrhea and took them 3 days to get over it. Only the 3 year old did not vomit nor have diarrhea as she only nibbled on the pastry. The other 4 members of my family ate the meat. None of them had had anything else to eat before eating these, so clearly showed that it was from their purchase at Birds, Mackworth store!

Yesterday, my wife , 3y old daughter & 8y old son had some food from this bakery. All end up in the hospital 😡 We used to love Bird'b, but never again! I'll make sure this shop gets checked by environmental health soon to prevent poisoning others!

Best cakes in derbyshire. love a blackcurrant cream

Food to die for always clean And we'll presented highly Recommended

Since the pandemic birds have gone with the simpler way to serve cooked Meat and sausage used to be lose now staying with prepacked should return to old methods as birds were always renowned for their personal service to individuals who want one or more from their stores

Great choice of breads, cakes, sandwiches and cobs. Also does meal deals. Helpful, friendly staff. Clean environment.

Placed an order for 2 meal deal when delivered we have drinks no food so rang Birds only to be told nothing they could do as the member of staff says they sent the order and doesn't know what happened. No help at all will not be using again and would advise anyone not to use Mackworth .

A genuine Derby bakery. I will always support them. Please re-introduce Apple puffs😊

I bought a sausage and bacon cob for £3.75 you get 2 slices of bacon and 1 sausage. Both the sausage and bacon was dry and hard like they have been left out over night, The worst buttie I have ever had.

I got served with a smile which was nice for a change. He was very nice . But unfortunately when he wrapped my quiches up he touched them with his hands which put me off . I bought dinner rolls and they were very very dry . I am going to call and complain as this is the 3rd time. I use birds less and less. Which is a shame. What's happening with the bread rolls ??

Nice Birds shop. Staff are very welcoming & always go the extra mile if requested i.e. Making up Cobs freshly if requested.

Love birds cakes they are the best

The staff are very obliging always smiling and courteous.

Still the best bakery and rarely have to queue Even with restricted numbers in the shop. If you're looking for a bacon or sausage cob can highly recommended

Great food to the high standards you'd expect from birds

The ladies in Birds Mackworth are a credit to your company!

Everything that Gregg's can never be and that's high quality food that actually tastes of something. If there is a Bird's then Gregg's don't get a look in.

The food is gorgeous and the shop very clean and the staff are very friendly

Sausage cobs (with apple sauce and stuffing) to die for. There bread buns are soft and lovely too.

Everyone knows Birds high standards

Nice clean shop with friendly staff.

Always get more than I went for

Always polite and kind staff. Extremely clean, and has all the different varieties you would expect, and more.

Great quality although a bit pricey

Always the best MultiGrain bread !

Great new store with all of the greatest Birds produce. Staff need to be more aware of people waiting in non hot food side.

You think you know what bread and cakes are like until you get Birds. Pork pies in a league of their own too.
