Nile's Bakery in Cornwall, Isles of Scilly

Purchased Cornish pasties and some cakes, only takeaway service here. Friendly service and the Cornish Pasties were probably the best I have tasted for a very very long time. The flaky pastry was crisp and light and almost melted in the mouth. The filling was very full and very tasty.

An awesomely tasty pastie! When I visited it was staffed by an incredibly efficient woman who was taking orders, serving, organising and despatching like an octopus on a mission! Not a moment wasted dealing with a vast queue of weeked customers. I don't know what they pay her, but it's not enough! She was "assisted" by two young lads, one who just about seemed able to operate the till with only occasional pauses to let the cogs in his head get up to speed and a second who seemed to be under the impression that the oven that was warming the next batch would only operate if he stood there holding the door handle.

I bought Niles Bakery's bacon foldover pastie today at their Fowey outlet. Only one way to describe it, "disgusting". The dough was half-cooked, the inside was sloppy, it tasted too salty and it was very oily. The oil and liquid in the pastie dripped on my shirt. I couldn't finish eating this disgusting food and had to bin the rest. Truly sickening.

Dog friendly, picked up pasties and doughnuts to go. Friendly staff, fairly priced and hot pasties - couldn’t go wrong.

On a cold wet and windy day this was an oasis of a find! The most delicious pasties we've ever eaten - with flaky pastry and both pasties full of scrumptious fillings.

Honestly the most amazing sausage rolls ever! We went to the area for a different bakery and ended up trying both. This one wins!

Having used Nile’s bakery for many years we find it the most consistent and reasonably priced and excellent bakery in Cornwall. As against the pretentious overpriced pretenders. Custard doughnuts to die for!!!! Viva la Niles.👍👍

This Bakery produces the best Large Steak Pasties, we've ever tasted. Typically Cornish, moist great pastry and generous contents. Bought hot from the oven, and eaten on Fowey Town Quay in the sunshine just bliss!!

Had a chicken Cornish Pasty. Delightful. Would recommend 👍 Out with family and was enticed by a Cornish pasty. All four of us had one and it was very tasty

Went to the cafe in Fowey, lovely steak pasties best we’ve had. Great customer service, welcoming, cheerful and nothing was to much trouble.

Great local produce, including traditional steak and other types of pasty, delicious saffron cake. Friendly staff.

I visited Nile's Bakery tea shop with two little tables in Fowey last week with my sister and husband for two cream teas, one for them to share and one for me. The man promptly snatched back my pot of cream saying one pot was plenty between three people. I couldn't believe it. They couldn't have done that if I had been a separate customer. He also charged for the mugs of teas as extra. I have never had a cream tea before where you have to pay extra for the tea. When my brother in law complained about the high bill of £18 for 2 cream teas priced at £6 each the man deducted the cost of one tea. This didn't make up for their off hand rude service and our disappointment of having such a poor experience in such a beautiful town.

Fowey is blest with 3 bakeries and Nile's is one of the outstanding bakers. Very good breads and particularly their pastries (didn't try their pasties). Very enjoyable products, with a well run shop.

I not very like cornwall tranditional pastry, but this one is good , a lot of beaf and veg inside, I like it and go back buy another one bring home, also buy a big big round daughtnut,

Nice tasty pasty , flaky pastry and plenty of meat! Reasonably priced for the area too. Polite staff.

Quaint little bakery and cafe Best bacon roll in a long time Bacon was crispy too And a proper latte hot strong and milky Kat & Darren

Great friendly service wonderful fresh very full rolls Fresh cooked pasty’s either traditional or veggie reasonable priced helpful staff

Visited this Bakery today for the first and last time. The women behind the counter was sharp ,rude and totally disinterested in our business. Everything we ordered seemed to be too much trouble and over complicated. My advised is simple, if you do not like working in customer service find another job.

Great little tea shop with only two tables. The food was delicious and the two girls behind the counter were delightful- so welcoming and chatty

This little shop of goodies sell the most delicious cakes, bread and pastries, definitely worth a visit while in Fowey

Have shopped around different backerys in Fowey and have yet to find a better pasty, full of tender tasty meat and vegetables nicely seasoned in a traditional style pastry. Nice range of other bakery products all the usual favorites. Polite efficient friendly service.

We had a few pasties here and they were lush. Lots of meat in them. The bread was very good too and they slice it for you. I can also recommend the scones. Lovely staff who were very helpful. Also open on a Sunday.

2nd visit to Niles bakery for a lovely lunch snack and drink. Great pit stop whilst having a morning in Fowey

As we have family in Fowey, our holidays have featured this place for decades now. Nile's has always featured as a must on our first day; a walk down into town, grab a pasty and a yum yum (would definitely recommend that one!) Staff are...

Great little bakery and tea shop in Fowey Main Street. Lovely selection of food (hot & cold), very nice staff and ideal to stop for a short break. This is a local chain of bakeries and we also tried the St Austell one which was...

We called here on visit to Fowey and in search of pasties. Well the traditional Cornish was correct choice, so much to choose from pasties,cake, pastries etc. Very pleasant staff.

Very good range of breads, cakes and pastries. All really elicious. The only trouble is what to choose! Staff very helpful, smiley and cheerful.

Went in for a late drink and cake , carrot cake was a bit dry to start with. Better to go early for freshness and more choice.

We visited Fowey whilst on holiday in Cornwall, we were recommended Nile’s bakery for pastries etc. I bought a large traditional Cornish Pastie while my wife had a large sausage roll, I can honestly say that this Cornish Pastie is the best I’ve ever had....

Nile's Bakery was recommended by a friend who lives in Fowey so after a long walk in the morning we went to Nile's to sample a pasty. Very good indeed with fresh tasting pastry and similarly fresh contents.

Popped in on speck for a late morning snack whilst in Fowey. Despite being advertised as a hot chicken baguette with salad, the chicken was cold and the overall sandwich very dry and tasteless. There was only three of us and we all had our...

Popped in for a bite to eat sandwiches made to order so got and fresh tasted great lady who served us was really nice and friendly don't know why the negative comments????

Bought a large steak pasty in the bakery in Fore st, Fowey on Monday 24/09/18 . I have been a visitor to Cornwall and eating pasties for longer than I can remember, but never had such a poor offering. Pastry was OK but the filling...

Needed some rolls for lunch and remember passing this bakery on an earlier stroll. Very friendly staff and the rolls are so fresh and tasty

Well situated to call in on the way home from the West. Lovely pasties to go and pleasant coffee for refreshemt.

This is a great place to grab some pastries before setting out on a coastal walk and if you find yourself there at lunch time grab a hot Cornish pasty. All very enjoyable.

What more could you want while walking along the picturesque Fore Street in Fowey... A real Cornish steak pasty... A real treat

Good pastie. Clean. Not overly friendly but efficient. Fresh daily bake goods scones to light lunches

as a former local now living away, I popped in whilst "home" for my kids to have their first taste of a pasty and yeast bun. did not disappoint - these are the real deal! just delicious, value for money and all with friendly service too.

My 4 year old chose a sausage roll from this bakery which appeared very pink. He only ate a couple of mouthfuls but was very sick that evening. Stay away !!!

Walking past we noticed these huge sugared ring doughnuts in the window and my boys wanted one. Their verdict they were delicious! I mean these things are the size of a small dinner plate, fantastic.

and better value than some you will see advertised around Fowey. also a tempting selection of small cakes to go woth your pasty. has a couple of seatsas well

We only had a large Cornish pasty to share on our coastal walk, but it was delicious and good value (50p less than down the road)! The other items in the bakery looked equally lovely.

When on holiday have to have my supply of both ... so stopped at Nile's as was in Fowey. Both purchases (pasty and saffron buns) were delicious... go on you know where to go... Nile's!

Mientras deambulando Fowey, nos encontramos con este lugar y vi que tenían una muy buena selección de empanadas, así que metimos en.

Having been out for the morning we wanted a quick lunch and this was the place, a busy little bakery and cafe but got a table, waitress really good we ordered our lunch and it was with us very quickly.

You can't visit Cornwall and not partake of a pasty can you! Wandering around Fowey we chanced upon Nile's. There were a few people waiting to be served, always a good sign. The cafe part only has two tables and luckily one was vacant. There's...

Oh my God, I'd be a large man if I had a Nile's bakery near me as their pasties are to die for. Grab yourself a pasty when you're down in Cornwall!

Metimos en un par de empanadas para el sábado el almuerzo. Sus empanadas tradicionales son muy sabrosas pastas ligeras y crujientes con esponja (mi favorito). Estupenda relación calidad-precio también. Recomiendo encarecidamente probar uno o dos :-)

While the shop assistant was very helpful the pasty I had was a bit disappointing with only three chunks of meat.

Have visited often and always found the staff to be very friendly the bread is amazing especially the multigrain, lovely cakes too and the pasties are some of the best in Cornwall

Freshly baked during the day, so great selection of breads, buns pastries. Also jams, honeys to accompany.

We were in Fowey and wanted to try a vegi type local pastie and cakes with tea to take away and eat on area overlooking the harbour/river. We were really glad we chose Niles as both the staff that served us were lovely and friendly and best of all the pastie was so delicious. It really tasted homemade and was so fresh. I chose a chelsea bun as they are a favourite, the type with icing on. It was the best chelsea bun I have ever had. It was melt in mouth fresh. I had intended to save half for later as we were on holiday and had already had a large cooked breakfast but I actually couldn't put it down until it was all gone! Highly recommend.

Our rolls and teacakes were good enough.But the staff member who took our order was so miserable and short with us ... we took our business elsewhere during our weeks stay. In a town with 3 bakery/pastie shops they can't afford to lose custom.

Whilst the products sold in the bakery are good the atmosphere is poor and the staff very miserable. Not worth a visit.

Called into shop for a Cornish Pasty, I can only say that I've had a lot better elsewhere. Obviously churned out for the tourists & pretty average, It might have been better if it hadn't been lukewarm at best, wife had a cake which was dry & tasteless.

Sausage rolls, pasties and bacon sandwiches were lovely. Brownies were amazing! Highly recommend this bakery compared to the others as is cheaper and just as good if not better.

Good choice of bread cakes and pasties, all of good quality size and value for money, not really surprising from this long established bakery in the main street

Never having been to Fowey, pronounced Foy, what a delightful little town. There's a step walk down to the town from the main car park but there's a shuttle bus. As it was lunch time we came across Nile's bakery, and when in Cornwall you have to try their famous pasties. I had a traditional steak pasty that was packed with the filling, the pastry was fluffy and absolutely delicious so good I ate the lot. As we were on self catering accomadation, we also bought their bread and some floured baps for the barbie, they were also delicious. Nile's also have outlets in St Austell and Newlyn.

Beautiful traditional cream tea. Cant go wrong. Will be calling in again when we come back. Great choice. Nice friendly staff. Great that it offers take away

We wanted 3 dozen Cornish pasties. After queuing for 20 minutes or so, when I got to the front was told that I would have to go next door for takeaway - even though it was advertised in there buy 12 pay for 10 take away pasties. So we went across the road and bought our pasties.

The "mega" breakfast didn't include tea. The staff were confused. The produce, I suspect, was good before being cooked. Limp watery bacon was on the plate, as were rather damp, foamy sausages. This was when we finally got our food half an hour after ordering via having somebody else's meal delivered to the our table in the meantime. All rather slapdash and expensive, £3.60 for a bacon sandwich/roll? I cannot recommend on any level really.

Breads, cakes, scones etc. Everything you could wish for in a bakery. Always fresh and gorgeous. Lovely granary bread.

A very good selection of bread cakes pasties and sausage rolls, ideal for a quick snack while in town.

white loaf was really good, made good sandwiches and toast the next day.But Lord knows what they do with their cakes.I tried a custard doughnut, usually the custard is piped into the middle and of a thick consistency, not in this case it was sliced in half with a runny watery custard and a really awful icing on top of one side of doughnut.Never again.My partner had a jam doughnut that looked cooked within an inch of its life crispy and crunchy, covered in about 3 tablespoons of sugar.The staff where friendly enough but seemed a bit fed up .I have rated this average for the cakes, however the bread would rate at very good .

Arrived in fowey early morning, walked in with 2 young children, asked if the food we ordered was children and amended sizes without asking even to doing small cups of tea. Great food, shame there is only 2 tables as I'm sure it would be rammed all the time if bigger!

Was looking for a non pasty lunch to be a bit healthier - the bakery offered a choice of their own home baked rolls, and many fillings. The rolls are made to order as you wait, and everything is really fresh.

We were looking for a quick bit to eat for a very late lunch. Our German relatives who were holidaying with us could not get enough of the Cornish Pasties. Like us they thoroughly enjoyed their Nile's Pasties.

Being Cornish, I've made a few pasties, so reckon I'm a good judge. When in this part of Cornwall we always buy traditional pasties from Niles

After arriving to Fowey via the car ferry, we found this smashing bakery. Tidy, clean and staff exceptionally polite chatty and lovely. Tea for two and scrumptious filled rolls made to order....cheap and cheerful

Super choice of savouries and cakes. pasties, savouries,bread and sandwiches. delicious cakes. Staff were really friendly especially on the Monday morning we were leaving Fowey, so engaging I bought more than I had planned and left my cake behind.

When we visit Fowey I always pop in to Nile's before our return home so I can get their steask pasties to take home with us. We've travelled all around Cornwall but find that these are consistently the best! The cakes are nice too!

Wouldn't visit again. Pasty was tasteless, luke warm, hardly any meat and no pepper. Staff were polite.

Visited on a very wet day after a long walk. Hungry for coffee and good cake/ tea. Told cream tea sold out, even though stacks of scones on the shelves in the bakery next door. Service friendly but slow. Coffee insipid and the much hyped carrot cake was dry and bland. Pecan tart ok. A shame, since the fare in the bakery next door looked so appetising.

This bakery has always been one of my favourites since a being a child, me and my best friend always used to buy the Pink Iced Fingers, they were So Good! And I'd still buy them today! They make my favourite sausage rolls too.

Stuck for somewhere to have a quick bite for lunch on our holidays in a visit to Fowey (town centre was busy & number of eateries to choose from) we took a chance and were glad we did. Lovely pasties and very friendly helpful staff too. Saw they had a Tripadvisor sticker so made a note of Niles Bakery so I could comment when we got home. Thank you very much.

Long queue for this one joined and bought a cheese pasty for a change, which was nice, but then nice Just doesn't cut the mustard considering the plethora of other places selling pasties.

called in for something to eat and was tempted by there takeaway box salad ,£3.75 ( I think) and was very nice , shop clean and pleasant staff ,would recommend .

Popped in for no frills cheese roll.Got the no frills roll but got fleeced for the princely sum of £3 in the process.Having checked that I hadn't unknowingly been transported to Knightsbridge,I quickly scampered out regretting I hadn't shopped at nearby Kittows Deli. In fairness to Nile's they must be doing something right because the shop was busy,but my takeaway snack was overpriced.

Especially love the Veggie pasties. Excellent bread and pastries too. Small seating area for eating in or everything available to take away including hot drinks.

This bakery offers a superb selection of traditional Cornish Pasties as well as a varied menu - we opted for take out but there are tables to eat in. Various size pasties to suit all 'capacities'.

Yesterday we visited Fowey and decided it would be lovely to have a pasty in the sunshine. We swerved the other bakers as I knew Niles from St Austell. We were served by an older ungracious member of staff who had a sour face and no words. Slowly fetched padties, leaving them on the side while she did another job unconnected to our purchase, finally bagging them up and accepting paymeny in silence. When we waljed round the corner to eat said pasties which took all of two minutes they were luke warm! This was disappointing to us but I thought anyway hot food should be served with a minimum core temperature but in any event should be hot!!!

We have a 4 hour drive from Birmingham to our place in Fowey and we leave early ,do the trip in one and when parked up at Caffa Mill we go down to Nile's and order our bacon and egg baps which are cooked to order. Then we take them home and scoff - yummy.

We decided to have a cream tea to take back to our apartment for later on . The scones were huge and the best ones I have ever tasted with plenty of jam and clotted cream. would highly recommend

Please don't try the breakfast if you like good food!we called in the shop on the main rd at st austell for a breakfast on our way home from.megavissey.after waiting 30 mins in a noises shop a sullen waitress banged it down on the table and just walked off.there was only one lady behind the counter who was doing two jobs at once in a busy shop.i left most of mine as it was awful.the egg was like rubber,burned where it had been over cooked on a griddle,the sausage and bacon were poor quality and the toast rock hard!should stick to pasties and cakes.

Just try the pasties they are absolutely gorgeous. The Bakery offers many pastries and are all delicious.

We got a pasty from here and wish we had not bothered it was burnt underneath and the meat was chewy and black needless to say it went in the bin !!! We will not be returning !!!

it was'nt exactly service with a smile...more like without a smile! the coffee was terrible (think some barista training would come in handy)! all in all won't be in a rush to go back. :(

Stopped here after our tour of Polperro, and was pleasantly surprised by what we found, the shop might not have many seats/tables, but has a vast range of cakes and bakery goods. We decided to take one of the tables outside in the rear courtyard. Tea, and a huge slice of cake, which was very good value, and our children enjoyed and icecream, the staff were helpful and friendly.Would m,ake sure we went back to this place again.

Popped in for coffee and Danish both very nice though cafe bit cramped with just 2 tables. Nice member of staff- seemed usual good selection of filled rolls and pastys etc that you would expect in a Cornish Cafe ......

I found the shop itself pleasant and a good display however the same could not be said for the member staff that served me. She was not welcoming not polite when serving. Came across very patronising to her younger members of staff in front of us and other customers. I found her to be very rude this lady who was middle aged but I couldn't catch her name but her badge started with the letter D. I think management/ head office should address this matter as it isn't what you expect from a small so called friendly shop.

Recently called in at Nile's Bakery at Newquay & was greeted (right!!) by a sullen female employee , fortunately her place was taken by a far more pleasant person.Settled for a cheese & onion pastie as my first choice of vegetable pastie & 2nd choice of chicken pastie were not available. Let's just say the cheese & onion pastie was disgraceful.Disenchanted!!

Visited on 1st May 2014, wonderful ,best pasty ever ! Staff very friendly, shop clean and tidy with a small area put aside for eating in which was a bonus.Will certainly return next time we visit Fowey.

Came across Nile's Bakery whilst in Fowey looking for lunch, noticed the made fresh sandwiches/baps so decided to give them a try.What a treat, the baps were bursting with delicious fillings and plenty of salad if requested, lots of choices available and if you don't want a bap they also do salad boxes which are equally impressive.Would definitely recommend for a lunch on the go.

If i choose a shop to buy a cake in Newquay, (where I live), I'd genrally choose Nile's. They're iced fingers, chelsea buns and cream donuts are unbeatable.I opted for a chelsea bun today, in the Fowey branch of Nile's and again, I was really pleased with my treat. However, the courtesy afforded me from the employee, a middle aged woman, was less than sweet. She barely spoke to me when I approached the counter and completely ignored me by pulling the old, handing me my change whilst looking elsewhere and saying nothing move. It left me unimpressed.

We visited this bakers on a Friday afternoon around 2.30pm, we wanted a cup of tea and piece of cake seems simple enough. We were a little confused as there were two shops that seemed to be one. We were told we could pick a cake from the left hand shop but drink our tea in the right hand shop as they were both the same owner. One was normal cake shop one was cafe fairly simple you would have thought but when I went to pay it was nearly £6.00 for an Eccles cake, a Chelsea bun (with virtually no fruit) and two teas We queried the price only to be told that's the deal. We asked what deal,? we don't want a deal, we just want the cakes separately and the tea separately? No that was the deal no other offer. As there was no where else open we paid up but just made a note never to use this Baker's shop again. We were then made to feel quite uncomfortable as the staff started to shut the shop up around us including lowering the blinds on half the shop window in the bit we were sitting. Perhaps we should have been given an alternative of paying for the items separately and not treated quite so badly. Customers may not always be right but we are still customers.

Good service etc but as we were at the home of Cornish pasties (and admitedly the pastry was golden and crispy) we nevertheless were expecting more meat, it was mainly potato + onion and also needs to be hot (if customers ask for that) not just warm-ish ?

plenty of potato and other assorted veg in pastie but would have liked a bit more meat and bit more seasoning. other pastie shops are available in fowey

Great to get your breakfast stuff here. We had danish pastry, and also really enjoyed cornish saffron bread which we toasted for afternoon tea. They also make really good coffee here to take away.

Staff were helpful and friendlyClean bakery and coffee shop One or two steps to get into coffee shop so wouldn't say it was disabled friendly not a lot so seating So no space for pushchairs
