I always loved the potato & meat pies from here, always full to the brim and perfectly cooked, however, on my recent visit the pies had more air in them than potato, very sloppy, and the pastry soft. Something has gone wrong here or have they just forgotten how to bake or maybe they are budgeting.

Still the best steak pies. Worth the price for a treat. A pie then walk it off along the prom. Good afternoon trip.

Lovely café & baker's shop combined. We had a light lunch and also bought some of the buns to go! The hot food was piping hot, and was all very tasty. Cheerful service from the staff, all of whom seemed a happy bunch. Clearly a popular spot for locals as well as visitors. Our only criticisms would be, we had to ask to get the table cleaned, and then it was a quick wipe of the centre only, not that impressive. Also, the toilets look as though they have a similar cleaning regime, a quick wipe down of the obvious!

Went in here even though butchers next door with POTATO and meat pies at £1.70. Bread looked good and lots of cakes. Much competition unlike where we live in Clitheroe - b all bakers! P&m pie £2.00 OK, assumed quality. Pastry good but beggar all meat and very large spud lumps. Juicy. No pepper and minimal salt. Disappointed to say least. Too many folk around town, old like me @ 73, who will put up with dear gear in costly times????

Called in on the spur of the moment. Ate in, food gorgeous, couldn't fault it, the staff were very pleasant. The only suggestion I have would be to update the hand dryer in the toilets. Would definitely call in again, your food is amazing.

we always call into the family bakery when in cleevelys it is not cheap in there to eat and some of the staff are a bit offish but other than that it is clean and in the summer months gets packed .

Poor service ,cold coffee when I complained about the coffee and the price they charged no response whatsoever, apart from a snigger from behind the counter.be on your guard everyone before you enter these premises and take plenty money.

I hate this place, I can't walk past without my nose going up in the air like a dog. All the food is baked on the premises pies, cakes, bread. Topped with a wonderful cafe.Never had anything I didn't like from here. Our very own food hero's in little cleveleys. P. S this staff are amazing too.

This bakery and cafe has been in the same family for three generations and has survived a war, recessions and many other upheavals. The staff continue to provide an excellent service and the quality of the baked goods is amazing. A real highlight when I visit the area. Try the almond slices and duchess fingers....delicious! Well done also, for taking the initiative to separate tables in the cafe in order to keep customers safe in these uncertain times

Great quality, good value, best sausage rolls ever. Don't understand the lasagne review as they don't make lasagne and they don't deliver.

It’s a expensive place and the bake I bought wasn’t that great and it seems like people say it’s a good bakery but maybe because they’re local and I found it dead strange and never returned back to that bakery and went to another.

Yeah bought a lasagna for 6 people and a hot pot as we were having a few friends round , on arrival of the cooked food the hot pot went down a treat but the poor old lasagna got throw in the bin , to say it was tasteless was an understatement, at first I thought it was me but as to my not so much surprise my guests refrained from eating said lasagna as it was totally tasteless stodgy and bland , I can recommend the hotpot but for lasagna go to M&S or Tesco they taste like lasagna

Note to self take out mortgage before buying mince pies !! 95p each and there all out of shape And £1:20 for the shortbread topped ones Sort of leaves a bitter taste when your trying to keep things local

The other staff are lovely and the food is good but the owner (Neil) lets the place down. He got my order wrong and was so patronising with me. Zero customer service skills. Maybe he should stay in the back office and let the staff take care of things.

I love this bakery - food is brilliant and the staff pleasant but....one member of staff needs to be reminded of hygiene. Coughing into your hand and then handling bread is a no-no (cough into the crook of your arm if you must) as is scratching around your nose and then handling bread. It's only 1 member of staff that frequently does this - the rest are fine. But it's very off-putting!

Called in for a quick snack. Had cup of tea and a sausage roll. These came in 2 sizes large or small so I opted for a small. The pastry was buttery and flaky and the sausage went all the way through. All the cakes, bread and savoury snacks are cooked on site. Prices very reasonable burn the quality of the food I don't think anyone would mind paying a bit more. Would highly recommend it

We went here for coffee/rea and cake, I chose to have a currant scone and my husband an apple pie. I asked did the give cream with the apple pie and was told you have pay for it, I asked how much and was informed it would be £1.20, I then asked was that just for a squirt of cream and was told yes I couldn’t believe it so left it. Everything was lovely but they let themselves down by the high charge for a squirt of cream, I can buy a whole can for £1.00 in some stores.

Durante su estancia con amigos en Blackpool para el fin de semana, visitamos Cleveleys y paramos en la familia panadería por un café antes de la partida para el tranvía de vuelta a nuestro hotel. Todos pedimos pastas danesas o magdalenas para acompañar nuestro café y disfruté de una porción grande de vainilla que estaba delicioso! Sin duda volveremos cuando en Cleveleys.

Las tartas son normalmente excelentes con un servicio amable y eficiente. En la última visita de tartas no estábamos bastante tan bueno como normal. Tal vez porque era domingo. Sigue siendo un gran panadería independientes. Mejor que la competencia. Normalmente para llevar.

Pedimos dos bocadillos, un chocolate caliente, una taza de té y un bollo de cerezo, que costó casi 15 libras. Decepcionado con ambas sándwiches y el chocolate caliente, y tuvimos que borrar la mesa antes de poder usarlo. No volveremos!

Yo estaba realmente esperando un buen bocadillo de atún, teniendo en cuenta (a) estaba en una panadería; y (ser) nos costó £4. 60. En su lugar me sirve las más finas propagación de mayonesa y atún, entre dos rebanadas de pan muy normal, corta en lonchas. No había nada más en el sandwich pero el plato también contenía una pequeña cantidad de ensalada floja. Si me había visto este sándwich en un estante del supermercado para un libra, no hubiera comprado.

I love the Family Bakery for pies and pasties, they can not be beaten. My favourites are the cheese and onion pies and the chicken pasties, the pastry is so tasty! I would like to see a bit more selection in terms of cakes that they offer. Will always pop in for a pasty whilst wandering the high street! Friendly staff and great bread freshly cut.. can't go wrong! Support your local businesses instead of Greggs and Pound Bakery.

Staying with family close by my Wife and I found this location on a Sunday morning in a largely closed High st. It was like revisiting childhood with all the freshly baked cakes, scones and specialities available. The counter staff were very helpful as we decided to first eat in then pack some boxes of items to take home. They helped us choose the most appropriate. We had two cappuccinos and shared a large vanilla slice. Unforgettable vanilla slice. I will be back on my next visit, solely for this.Later in the day, we finished the assortment we had taken home. Again, exceptional.Loved the small family owned feel of this place and long may it stay in business. There is a Greggs and Costa nearby that couldn't touch this with a barge pole.

Amazing food in this lovely family bakery, staff are friendly and welcoming and the freshly made bread cakes and pies are heaven!There is a huge selection of homemade cakes which are amazing - I can never chose which one to have (usually end up having one in the café and a few to take home - favourites are the carrot cake and vanilla slices!). Love visiting here - highly recommend for breakfast, lunch or just a quick coffee!

I've been buying sandwiches from this place since 1996, and they have stayed just as good. This is always my favourite place to buy sandwiches, to the point I'm gutted I don't work in Cleveleys anymore. Now havign one of their sandwiches is a treat at a weekend or during school holidays. I always have the ham salad barmcake or egg mayo barmcake. The bread is so fresh and is what makes it really. Introduced my husband to them, who couldn't understand why I was raving so much. He now loves their barmcakes too.

Me and my partner ate here last week, I ordered tomato soup which was in actual fact just tomato purée in a bowl.. Absolutely foul. Equally their version of a 'large' latte is in a glass smaller than a child's cup! Very overpriced for such poor food, will certainly not be back!

Great experience altogether! We loved our coffee, the food (halloumi wrap, brisket, smoked chicken club (great rolls!)). The only criticism came from our (picky) 8 year-old who found the ham on her kids box sandwich much too thickly sliced. Her loss of course, but maybe something to consider for other kids too.

Just visited this lovely looking pub for a bite to eat on our way through travelling home. We were greeted by the bar staff & ordered drinks. We took a seat & viewed the food menu. We both decided on the healthy option noodles with chicken which showed 600 calorie meal. We also ordered garlic ciabatta. The food arrived & very disappointed with what we saw. 2 bowls of greasy noodles sitting in an oily liquid! The ciabatta was cold & soggy. Such a shame as expected a great pub meal Needless to say we both left most of meal & left still hungry What a waste of money. We were asked if meal was okay to which we politely informed the waitress that it wasn’t great. Think the kitchen needs to up its game on food preparation.
