Oxfords Bakery in West Dorset

Did a lamination day with Steve Oxford today great fun great price everybody came away with croissants they had made great day great value

I bought a couple of pasties here to take home for lunch, one steak, one chicken, and they were both absolutely awful. My steak pastie had virtually no meat in it at all, just some onions and lentils smothered in pepper, and the pastry itself was undercooked and greasy. My wife's chicken pastie was equally as bad and she left virtually all of the pastry as she though it tasted and had a texture more like filo than short crust. Terrible quality and terrible value at about 4 pounds each. Since the old baker retired this place has gone steadily downhill, the steak pasties used to have actual pieces of steak in them and potatoes, now you get what amounts to a teaspoon of what might be mince.

I visited the Dorchester shop on Sunday afternoon and bought a goats cheese and pepper sandwich for lunch. I’m not sure when the sandwich had been prepared but the bread was dry and tough. I was unable to cut through the crust with the knife and fork provided. Very disappointing for something that cost nearly £5 and uncomfortable to try and eat. I gave up after a mouth full and left both the sandwich and the shop. I wouldn’t recommend sandwiches from this establishment.

I had heard very good things about this bakery. I just purchased 1x sourdough loaf 4x small bans and a sausage roll. £10.00!!!!!! not going back at these prices.

First time going into Oxford’s but what a hidden gem, best coffee I’ve ever had, the young man made me my coffee too the letter. Been drinking coffee for over 20 years religiously and would definitely recommend this place, my only issue was the lack of glass in front of the food didn’t really want to eat something that anyone can touch. Non the less my hubby loved his Eccles cake.

Could not find the link to Dorchester's Oxford's Bakery which is found near the bottom of town on the pedestrian part! Lovely small bakers with a few seats outside. Very good flat white served by lovely staff. Croissants and coffee far superior than the chain on the corner.

Amazing breads, pastries and cakes! Would highly recommend ordering from the bakery drive through for all essentials and yummy treats during this time! Wonderful staff and service. Thanks for being so great and really helpful 😁

Wonderful bread , the cafe is lovely ,fabulous cakes & coffee I visited the Dorchester branch . Friendly and happy staff .

Our Tintinhull Phoenix Ladies group enjoy a very entertaining afternoon here. The tour and talk was most interesting and the meal afterwards was delicious, followed by cake and coffee. We will certainly return for more delicious food.Thank you.

We'd looked forward to buying bread from Oxford's Bakery in Sherborne...met all expectations. Delicious artisan wholemeal loaf, made perfect toast over the next couple of days. Good selection of breads and cakes, lovely staff, excellent value - very reasonably priced.

Just amazing range of breads, buns, pasties and more. Also does soup, sandwiches, drinks and other snacks for you to buy if needing lunch Friendly family business!

This bakery makes a great selection of breads, pastries, cakes & treats. Everything I have tried, has been excellent. The bread is particularly good. You will need a sweet tooth, for the Chocolate brownie & bakewell tart, which are full on sugar!

My husband loves this bakers, particularly the cakes. We went in to discover quite a few old tradional favourties that brought back childhood memories - Madelines or known to me as Lighthouses - these tasted better than I remembered. Hubby loves the huge Belgian Buns - these are a meal in themselves - big and tasty. Bread is also great and at a reasonable price for a large loaf. Located half way up Cheap Street past the Post Office on the left side if walking up. If you fancy something different than the supermarkets try here. Staff are also chatty and pleasant.

Bought excellent bread and was tempted by sausage rolls in the window. Nice selection of individual cakes.

Excellent Cafe with very nice coffee and pleasant surroundings Busy place clean and convivial,Staff very pleasanr and quick service witha smile

not bad , not the best just average, prices are generally okay, not much else to say, will try again soon

Bought some bread to take home with us. Have since enjoyed it. Cakes and sausage rolls also worth trying.

Traditional, old fashioned, classic bakehouse/tearoom. It does what it says on the tin! And the Eccles cakes are to die for.
