Very disappointed, visited the bakery in broughty ferry today and purchased a cream iced cookie and a caramel meringue. Both cakes were inedible as the cream in the meringue was hard and did not taste fresh and the cream iced cookie was hard. Was looking forward to a treat but will not be in a hurry to visit again as not cheap.

Blairgowrie Went in this morning and apparently, fiddling about with cakes is a priority over serving customers, so I walked out. Not sure the recent refurb is going to work out for you how you hope if it's considered acceptable to ignore customers with money in hand.

The sit-in cafe is alongside the bakery shop which had a large display of cakes which caught our eye. Although it had signs which indicated it had won awards for its pies sadly they had none available in the cafe - presumably sold out. Instead I had a roll with Lorne sausage and my wife had a roll with bacon. These were nice enough as was the coffee but at £10.70 it was fairly average for what appeared to be a traditional local bakery. Service was okay. In the end we didn't bother with the cakes.

Lovely wee spot to stop off. Locally, it is very historical but perhaps more importantly, the quality of the produce and the level of customer service can almost transport you back in time ( think Downton!) Food is locally cooked / baked Limited seating but such a special experience. Pls try the chocolate violets if you can - more ish!.

We happened to stumble across this place after visiting Broughty Ferry Castle and we are glad we did! It is a lovely little cafe with very limited seating but staff are very welcoming and helpful when choosing what to eat from their well-priced menu. All of our food was very tasty and our drinks hot - absolutely no complaints!

Whatever has happened to Goodfellow and Steven They were (in the past) an excellent baker Now it is impossible to even get a fresh cream cake, which is appalling Instead they offer appalling fake 'cream' which is like plastic They are clearly of a much lower quality and nowhere near their competitors like Fisher and Donaldson or J M Bakery I find it amazing that what is supposed to be a premium bakery does not even provide fresh cream cakes

Having gone in to buy cream cakes as a treat, for the family,I was disgusted to find when getting home that the filling was not fresh cream, but an appalling synthetic filling that was tasteless and not edible. I am old enough to recall Goodfellow and Steven as a real quality baker. This in no way was quality, and if I had wanted a cheap, unpleasantly tasting, synthetically filled cake I would have gone elsewhere. I would also like to know what the ingredients of this synthetic 'cream' filling are. Would highlight also that the price was not in keeping with such cheap ingredients What a disappointment. Goodfellow and Steven really needs to think about what it is selling to customers .

Visited yesterday with my teenage grandson. We both had tea, a Scotch pie each, one portion of beans in a small ramekin dish and 2 chocolate éclairs. The pot of tea was small for 2 but staff topped it up so we could get a 2nd not so strong cup. The charge of £4.20 was ridiculous as was the £1.10 for a small portion of baked beans. Our éclairs were chosen from the shop and no one mentioned they were not fresh cream. Since when did Goodfellow & Steven use artificial cream? They cost £2.20 each! Grossly overpriced. I'm all for supporting local businesses but not at these prices. There are many other coffee shops in the area offering better value for money and more comfortable surroundings.

Perth, Scott street. As above beetle found in egg roll cooked in! Called to tell them got relplied to like a child, back up, confrontational etc told to bring it back. I was at work therefore couldn't and not keeping it aside for hours to take back. Emailed in Sep no reply. Emailed Nov got a reply to say it will be passed to relivent person. Still no reply. Today thought I'd give them the benifit of doubt if the same people were not on service due to cleanliness, entered and was told I am not allowed food nor to be served! Come back Monday and speak with her manager. Firstly shocked at this behaviour, should be genuinely concerned that this has happened. But no back up confrontational which is really bad service.. I am really humilitated by the response we are not all perfect but surely for health and safety your staff should be concerned and not treat customers this way? This is not the first issue I've had with staff in this bakers even away back when they were on the hight street I've had a rude girl no longer there now. I've had incorrect foods put on rolls etc and yes I know we're not all perfect but surely a better response to me and an apology. After all we are the ones lining your pockets with money and during Covid still shopping... I think I've said enough

£6 odd for a measly bowl of soup and a sad half sandwich? Was taken back when my partners portion of soup and bread was the same amount of food minus the sandwich filling but nearly half the price? and to have to wait half an hour just to get our orders taken? Shambles

I have always been a fan of Goodfellow and Stevens cafe, however I recently visited it and was extremely disappointed to find that it was far from clean. The shelves behind the seating areas were dusty and dirty and looked as though it hadn’t been cleaned for some time. On a plus note the service and food were good. Just in need of a good cleaner

One lovely lady who was calm, pleasant and polite at all times was rushed off her feet for the entire time I was in the cafe. She had to do everything on her own. When I suggested to the manager that more staff were needed in the cafe she snapped that they couldn't have more than one person there. Having read previous reviews I see that this isn't an isolated incident. So all praise and support to the woman who was left to do it all without help. She did a wonderful job under ridiculous and unneccesary pressure.

Me and my ladies went in for our coffee and cakes as usual, cafe is always clean and welcoming. However poor lassie was running about trying to accommodate all of the tables and other tasks. When addressing our table she explained that she was running it on her own today and this is not the first time I’ve witnessed this, another lady who attends to the cafe has mentioned this before. Also, the cafe does not seem to have taken any precautions regarding the virus as tables are too close to one another, we felt uneasy because of this. However we can not fault the food and service, just wish it was a bit quicker!

What a thoroughly unpleasant experience! Surly, uninterested staff, an extremely long wait for food which when it arrived consisted of poor quality ingredients that were poorly cooked. When trying to complain, The manageress informed us she was serving a customer and walked off into the bakery, we left in disgust after paying. There was clearly no management of staff, tables were not being cleared. Delivering food without the utensils to eat it, poor quality food and a couldn’t care less attitude. Cutlery and crockery was getting crashed about..if you don’t like the job or serving customers politely, find other employment. As a customer i suggest you find somewhere better to eat and spend your money. I wish we had read the other reviews before we went there. We won’t be going back, I would have detailed all the other problems but feel it would be a waste of time.
