A great little bakery. Bought a granary sourdough loaf which was great. Also bought a couple of the chicken and ham pies, which could be the best pies we’ve ever had!! We’ll be back when we’re in the area again.

Wow what can I say..I've eaten pastys all over the country and I truly have to say for 4.95 the traditional pattern I've just had from here was absolutely amazing from the pastry to the filling to the seasoning cannot fault it in a yway..and yes it blows cornish pastys from deep down Cornwall out of the ball park I'll definitely be going back and recommending

3 stars. Amazing bread and cakes, however it's all spoilt by the miserable man with the long hair and the glasses who seems less than bothered to serve anyone and looks like he would rather be anywhere else right now.

look forward to the finest most authentic sourdough in the southwest from this charming little family run bakery . and a cup of coffee matching the same level of perfection . Arran, the amusing, heavy metal loving, and sharp witted barista has been playing the caffeine pipes here for long enough to draw a first every time . Be warned get there early if you want bakery product (or place an order) .

Jacka Bakery exceeds all expectations and more. The exceptional quality of their products pays homage to their centuries-old tradition as the oldest bakery in the UK. From their artisanal bread to delectable pastries, each item is a testament to perfection. The service is both top-notch and professional. Highly recommended 👌. Located in the heart of Plymouth, UK is the oldest bakery in the United Kingdom, Jacka Bakery, absolutely fantastic in every way, the quality of its products exceeds any expectations. Highly recommended 👌

Jacka always satisfies. They have cinnamon buns to die for so I always make my way to this bakery when in Plymouth. However, I just had a blueberry and cheesecake creel for breakfast (naughty!) and I am totally blown away. Honestly, I've never been to a better bakery. Get down there early, there's a reason they sell out so quickly.

I love my sausage rolls and I can't find a good place for them ,so they are far few theses days. So I thought I try one from jacka bakery , omg it was amazing tasty, full of flavour and the pastry was just melt in the mouth , I'm a great believer that the pastry makes the product, it will be my only place to go for them now.

The finest pasty in all of Devon, with few contenders that even come close. Lots of amazing sweet treats and freshly baked breads. Be sure to arrive early, as these delectable creations tend to disappear in the blink of an eye

The taste of pastries has gone downhill and they are not really value for money. But apart from that I did not like the attitude of the person serving. When I was about to pay I asked how much it was and the person said £7. I asked why and I was told it was typed wrongly so £6.50…what??? It looks like they were just rounding it up to screw me, no apology or explanation, that stinks. Serve with a smile, treat customers kindly and they will be back. Try to screw them and they will not come back. That simple. Think about that 👍

Woke up particularly early the creels after being told twice by staff members they sold out first thing. Not sure why, this was one of the worst pastries I’ve had. A bit heavy on the filling. Pastry itself was alright but they ruined it with the filling and overcharged. Also, only one flavour available. Not much choice at all, for what they consider their most sought after product. Was quite disappointed by the product. The filling was essentially three tablespoons of cheap caramel filling. The cake - white chocolate and raspberry. Just tasted like an Asda smart price Victoria sponge. Too sweet and too dry. Very overpriced for the quality of products provided. They’ve just essentially hyped themselves up on instagram and got their friends to do the same. I’ve had better from oggy oggy getting the pink finger .

Popped in while in Plymouth for an event. So I picked up a few lunch time snacks. Oh my! everything was delicious. Had a bacon and cheese bite which was gourmet compared to your average bakery snack. And the chocolate brownie was fudgey and flavorful. 10/10 will be coming back.

I was surprised to see no bread in a bakery at 10 in the morning. All the shelves were empty ! The carrot cake was dry and the choco mint bun was overwhelmingly minty . I found it pricy too . The cashier not too friendly either . Overall quite disappointing compared to the current rating. Will not go there again !

Must be the worst sausage roll I have ever had all I could taste was salt and to make matters worse it was £4.50 , It doesn’t come close to a quality sausage roll you can get better in a Spar shop, Maybe it was a off day as lots good reviews , I worked on Barbican late 80s early 90s for 12 years and this was are go to place and never let us down not sure if trying to be something it’s not , I was really surprised how bad it was fair enough if £1.50 but if charging £4.50 it’s got to taste At least ok :-(

I’ve had pastries and sandwiches from here in the past, but last week I tried their steak pasty and I honestly believe it’s the best pasty in Plymouth. The pastry was buttery, the filling was quality and it was out of the world. You need to try this if you’re in Plymouth!

What a great deal the £5 bag" at the end of the day" was! We were visiting the barbican and it was my daughter's birthday. The bag contained the most generous filled focciatia , four scones, a creel and what we think was a peanut filled brownie . Unbelievably delicious and the best cakes we have eaten for ages.

As one of the oldest bakeries in the UK, it is a quintessential Plymouth institution, and one of my go-to bakeries here. Their sourdough bread, notably their malted barley loaf is my favorite. They do sell out of the creels (croissant wheels) by late morning, so do go early for them! The creels are lovely when they're fresh, so eat them quickly as they do lose their texture. Recommend: sourdough bread (including malted barley loaf), various creels, eccles Not notable: regular croissant, chocolate croissant, croissant cubes

Very disappointing, visited today after a recommendation, only to find it closed. Checked facebook in case I had got opening wrong and there was no information. Looked again an hour later and a post was put up saying they weren't gonna open. Very unprofessional. I understand that these things happen, but surely any business should announce it is not opening in advance of the actual opening time, not after!

We used Jacka Bakery to cater for an office event which required a range of dietary requirements including vegan and gluten free, and everyone at the event was genuinely blown away by the quality of the pastries and how large they were! Plus Jacka were far cheaper than most of the catering alternatives, which made them the obvious choice for us. I absolutely recommend this bakery, and they make the best pain au chocolat I've ever had!
