Pasty Presto in Wiltshire - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

disappointing. Both pasties virtually cold, but with long queue and slow service didnt want to wait to replace. Also declined a brown sauce small sachet at 40p!

We popped in here for a very light lunch on a Saturday. It was very busy. Lots of lovely looking pastries, pasties and the like. We had a cheese scone (not very cheesy) and a so-so pane de chocolat. My tea was fine as was my wife's coffee.

We have been here a few times and each time the service has been poor. The coffee is great hence why we have returned but after today's visit we will not. The service is always extremely slow, always dirty plates and crockery on tables that you have to remove before you can sit down. They do have enough staff but they seem to be just stood behind the counter chatting to each other. Today I was served by a young gentleman that spilled all my coffee and with no apology just walked away. I feel this coffee shop needs better management. Very disappointed.

The coffee was lovely and the home made scones were amazing the customer assistant Rachel was very friendly and welcoming , Ash made a lovely coffee !!

If you're in Salisbury and fancy a cream tea, come here. Having been disappointed on a visit to The Red Lion Hotel, I opted to try here next time and it was like night and day. Big scone, three cups of tea from the pot, lovely ambiance in the place - really can't knock it.

My wife and daughter like the cornish pasties from this shop, so I get magged to get them one occasionally. They - I dont like pasties - say they are nice. However ... (and I came here to see if others had noticed the same. They have) The service is dreadful. Everytime I have to queue for 15+ minutes to pick up two pasties. On each time theres only been a few (less than 4 in front) but the queue does not move. It should not take 5 minute to process each order. And todays experience was even worse. Turn p a ~12.15 and they only had ~5 pasties left FFS. Its not like midday moves around everyday. How on earth can a shop go into midday without making sure theyve got a batch of pasties prepared. Its not a shortage of staff -theres always a few behind the counter. They just dont seem to do much, or quickly. The shop is severely lacking any competent and present management.

Popped in here for a coffee and some work. Really nice setting and good service plus a great location. Definitely worth a visit

Looks good and clean, pretty slow service even though it wasn't busy. I will not be going again, the Large Coffee was medium at best, and I can't get on board with the NO CASH policy, the incoherent excuse did not wash. Disappointed and completely underwhelmed. Food looked OK although I didn't bother.

Yet again awful service today at approx 12.30. Ordered 2 pasties and 2 small cappiccinos. Asked for pasties to heated up. Given a service number. Food heated and then I moved on the the drinks service end of the counter. Yet again drinks not dispensed in order of when purchased. Two people served before me even though I was first in line. No sorry, or any comment at all except for the drinks to be plonked down in front of me, one spilling into the saucer. This long delay at the drinks end means any hot food is always cold by the time you finally get to the table. Don't issue service numbers if they are not going to be done in order. Also the cappucinnos never really hot only lukewarm. Lots of tables covered in dirty crockery and trays. It is evident that more efficient staffing is required. Also noted Fire Door propped open into kitchen area!

Service is terrible It took me 20 minutes of queuing to get fully served and the door wide open making the sit down area like a fridge

Wonderful pastries but appalling service. The wait for coffee - there were 7 people ahead of me- was endless. Just one machine and one harassed young man making one cup of coffee at a time. Not acceptable. When I complained about this a lippy young man 'overseeing' the young man was arch bordering on rude. Not good enough. Barista training and a machine that makes more than one coffee at a time would be a great improvement.

Nice enough pasty and reasonably quick service. But to pay 40p extra per sachet for condiments is completely unacceptable. After paying nearly £5 per pasty and an extra c. 40p to eat in I would expect complimentary condiments. Whatever happened to a bottle of sauce per table? Or some sort of dispenser. Shame really but that’s enough to ensure I don’t visit again.

Nice coffee place, and certainly very busy. good atmosphere and reasonable price. Its perfect for after shopping in the town centre

Have been visiting CB Salisbury for years. Best coffee in high street. However, our recent experience at the new location was disappointing. Dreadfully slow service - young man polite, barista morose. Tables full of dirty cups. No one to clear them away. Lovely new toilet, but it does need to be cleaned all day when busy. Obviously a shortage of staff. Experience similar to Gunwharf Quay - queue outside door, tables not cleaned. So bigger, but definitely not better.

Visited its new location in Salisbury. All started well, with an engaging and polite guy taking orders and serving up the cakes etc. Waited for the coffees and took them to our table. Then noticed that my mocha cup was dirty - had burnt on coffee marks on the rim and outside. Took it back to the barista girl, who said it was probably just chocolate powder (it obviously wasn't), but did I want her to wipe it off? - Well not really, I'd like my drink in a clean cup. Then another in my party noticed their cup was also dirty. Took it up and asked the same barista if the drink could be transferred to a take-away cup. Was told that it 'looked clean to her'. The total lack of acknowledgment or apology that the cups WERE dirty was astounding. Will not be returning. (A shame, as we'd visited the Cornish Bakery at its old location, and always had good service.) Perhaps this girl was new - but she needs some further training in how to deal with customers..

The decaffeinated coffee was the worst I have had in Salisbury. It was cloudy and bitter. I raised this with the person behind the counter who said that there was nothing they could do. That’s how their decaffeinated coffee is. Needless to say with the plethora of coffee shops in Salisbury I/we won’t be returning to this one.

Cold coffee and cold 'hot' chocolate. Complained and got another two tepid drinks. Perhaps a thermometer for the milk jug would be a good idea. On the plus side, nice decor

Love the new cafe looks amazing ,excellent staff especially Rachel, all very helpful, first of many visits

First day opening in lovely new modern premises. Love the style and the rustic brick wall and art. Still the best coffee (union) and pasties in my opinion. Great service.

The new shop looks stunning, features look great. The seating area is so big. The coffee is one of the best I have had and the staff are very friendly.

Staff are excellent and the refit is amazing. Love the union coffee. Pasties top notch and very filling. Nice location on the High Street.

Popped in on their first day opening there new store, all the staff were friendly and welcoming. I enjoyed a oat milk flat white and a chicken and chilli jam toastie which was delicious. I’ll definitely be back regularly to grab lunch to go!

Visited the new Cornish bakery premises today and it was excellent. The new venue in the high street, Salisbury is very stylishly laid out with a very choice of seating ares and a good mix of traditional tables and chairs and more relaxed low level seating. The food range has increased with some delicious new additions. The staff lead by the always excellent Ashley, were efficient and clearly enjoying their new environment. I’m sure it will be a great success.

We visited on its first day of opening and were very impressed with the delicious bakery item, the friendly staff and the comfortable surroundings.

New cafe just opened around the corner from the old one. Now on the high street. Great good and drinks. Friendly happy cheerful staff large space with lots of light and soft background music. Best place for a lovely large pasty and chilling with family and friends. Highly recommend lots of soft chairs for lounging and going nothing but watch the world go by. Love the new store and layout.

Visited your new store in Salisbury today, by invitation , all excellent ,lovely new shop and good atmosphere .

Really lovely atmosphere, staff was lovely and helpful. Really enjoyed the food will be returning 😀

My favorite place to enjoy my time in Salisbury city centre. Minty and her team are friendly. The customer service was outstanding. Food and drink was excellent.

Went for coffee with my son, the manager was lovely he understood when I said I just wanted a white coffee and he gave me extra milk, the coffee was lovely the best, and the staff were very friendly I will visit again

Went in 15 or so minutes before closing, felt the staff was a bit short with me. Had a large Cornish pasty and a flat white. The Cornish pasty, despite being very generous with the beef was not very good. Quite dry in some spots and was very close to being cold. The coffee was beyond burnt and downright awful. Binned it after the first sip and went to cafe Nero. 6/10 pasty. 2/10 coffee.

I had one of the best croissants I have ever had - light, buttery - and the coffee was very good, too. But the bathroom was awful. I came shortly after it opened, and it hadn't been cleaned since at least the day before. The sink was filthy, and the toilet so disgusting you wouldn't have wanted to use it. Not good.

Delicious cream tea and very pleasant staff. Went in “on spec” after disappointing reception at Côte Brasserie. Scones were light and fluffy with jam and Rodders Cream. Well done!

Popped in for breakfast, the coffee was lovely and the staff were helpful and friendly. I am on crutches and easy to get in and find a table.

Such good food and great coffee! Lovely staff and a nice environment! Would definitely recommend a visit whenever close

I can't understand the great reviews of this place. our cheese and onion pasties were rock hard overpriced. Won't bother again.

Amazing coffee delicious cherry and almond croissant and staff always fun and happy and some how remember our order every time

Wonderful coffee, excellent food fresh straight from the over. The staff were friendly and lovely. Will definitely return.

Spoke to a lovely American woman who was very friendly! The food was lovely would definitely recommend

I only went in because of the delicious display of pastries i saw walking by just to be pleasantly surprised by the best coffe i had ever tasted at a coffee shop. The almond croissant was out of this world and the staff couldnt be...

Very nice and friendly place. Tasty food and coffee is great as always. Highly recommended. If you're visiting Clarks Village in Somerset it's a place to go.

Visited today and had a lovely chicken masala pasty and coffee. Wonderful service with a smile by Ashley will definitely Visit again.

Very busy when we called in on Saturday 26th November. Service quick with all staff smiling and polite. It was a joy to meet such lovely staff, who were also keeping a close eye on the more mature generation who may need a hand holding...

It’s good food served quickly by nice staff, very clean and permits dogs - what more do you need to know? I had a traditional Cornish pasty and my husband a spiced cauliflower one, both enjoyed very much.

Lovely fruity scones light & fluffy cooked by Ash. They were hot out of the oven. Didn’t even realise they did scones ( had the pasty range many times and always good). Asked by chance if they had scones and they had just cooked some....

Came here specifically as we know coffee and scones are delicious (usually) today the young lady who served us was lovely but the coffee seems to have shrunk! My husband ordered a regular Americano and it was like a small at any other coffee shop...

Recently discovered the Cornish bakery even though I’ve worked in Salisbury for years. Coffee here is scrumptious

Had a great experience here today. Service was impeccable and the coffee was perfect well done staff

Brilliant staff. Lovely food and great coffee. Been a few times now and it's always top quality good and drink

Staff are always welcoming and go above and beyond for all customers. Im always spoilt for choice but the staff are really helpful at helping me decide from what I like. The best caramel latte in town!

Hot, fresh from the oven scones and pasties of all flavors make choosing just one item so difficult. Everything was good but the cheese scone and chicken masala pastie were my favorite. The coffee is strong and flavorful too.

Excellent service by Ash today. Made my drink extremely quickly and professionally. Will definitely be back for a cuppa in the future!

The service was absolutely wonderful and the food was delicious! Really good coffee and a great atmosphere ☺️

Excellent service from the young lady Hannah, very polite and a very pleasant smile. I had an americano - best coffee in Salisbury! Will be returning

My pasty and coffee were delicious :) would recommend to anyone visiting or living in the area. Really friendly service and nice atmosphere.

Was served by Jess today who was amazing, definitely be beck 😊😊 Food was also delicious and baking hot… Can’t wait to go back again!!

We visited twice on one weekend for morning coffee, my wife loved the Hot White chocolate and reckons this to be the best hot chocolate ever. The custard tarts were lovely, team working very friendly, with warm welcoming service, a great place to get out...

Had a lovely catch up with a friend at the Cornish bakery. The staff were super friendly even if it was busy! And the coffee was beautiful and the sausage rolls were incredible!! I would highly recommend and would come back again!

Warm and friendly service from Alana & John. Coffee was lovely… served at the perfect temperature. Exactly as I like it. Great value.

Five of us went to the Cornish Bakery for lunch. All the food was great, however the service was very very slow. Seem to be very short staffed.

This is always our go-to spot for a snack and drink in Salisbury and it never disappoints. I have to thank John for his super service during our visit last Friday! We'll be back soon.

Best Americano ever and a vegan pasty!! The pasty was amazing - cauliflower Bahji. Yum. Excellent service in Salisbury.

Lovley little bakery, coffee and cakes were superb. The staff were lovley and helpful. Will be visiting again!

Stopover in Salisbury and needed something to keep me going, before coming across the Cornish bakery. This place didn’t disappoint!!! The pasties were to die for (I bought a second one i enjoyed the first so much). And really delicious coffee! Plus the staff were...

The BEST coffee shop in Salisbury! Delicious food great tasting coffee and friendly professional staff. There is a wide choice of pasties and pastries. The spiced cauliflower pasties are a firm favourite for me and I rate their coffee the nicest I’ve ever had.

Popped in for a coffee and pasty on lunch break,the coffee here is exceptional and the pork and apple pasty was top notch.

Visited today with my wife and had coffee which was good but the Pasty and Sausage roll were hard and overbaked. I have eaten at other outlets of this chain and found them very good especially in Swanage! But everything here is poor even the scones which are smaller than average and also overbaked. Don't know who's running this place but it needs looking at as quality of produce is poor. Wont be returning soon.

Apareció hoy alrededor de las 11 am y fue recibido por 3 encantadoras damas. Me sentí muy seguro y me dijeron que esperara afuera mientras 2 personas hacían cola dentro de la tienda. Esto me hizo sentir muy cómodo porque sé que se lo están tomando muy en serio. Me recomendaron probar el pastel de pollo tailandés y no me decepcionó. ! !¡Gracias nuevamente a la panadería de Cornualles y a esas encantadoras chicas! !

so happy to see the cornish bakery back open! Absolutely love to see it. Finally a good cup of coffee after 4 long months! Excellent

It's so great to see the team again and finally a proper pasty after 13 weeks. Great coffee from Ash as always and great to catch up with dan and ellie.

Excellent service, despite to have a narrow local, there was any problem to eat in with a baby trolley. Pastries were simply delicious. A place to come back definitely.

Been here a few times now. There's a great team working in this establishment, extremely friendly and helpful! The pasties are top notch, especially the Thai Chicken. The Coffee is also delicious! I recommend the latte and both the white and regular mochas. Will continue to purchase from this establishment in the future.

Local muy bien ambientado que invita a entrar con expositores muy bien iluminados y producto artesano muy variado.Repostería casera muy buena que mejora mucho cuando lo calientan antes de servir. Cafés muy buenos y chocolate caliente demasiado aguado.Buena atención y precio ajustable.

Este pequeño y maravilloso lugar ofrece una buena relación calidad-precio, un personal amable y acogedor. Las empanadas de Cornualles primero todos los gustos son simplemente bollos perfectos fuera de este mundo. Café a su gusto, personal siempre dispuesto a complacer.Pruébalo, estoy seguro de que no te decepcionará.

We were in the area to check out Stonehenge and of course had to check out a traditional pasty shop! The shop was quaint and small. We waited a short bit for a table to open up. We ordered a few pasties and couple coffee drinks. The traditional pasties are so delicious!! Juicy and flavorful with a flaky buttery shell with a crispy edge. We also tried a cheese and onion as well as a sweet baked tart. The latter two were very mediocre, but definitely worth a stop in for the traditional. It comes in two sizes and you can take it to go. If you arrive as they run out though, be warned, it's another 20-30min wait!

Happenned to be walking down the street when their pastries caught my eye. Went in and ended up walking out with a big bag full of treats. They were all excellent! The croissants are gigantic yet flasky & buttery. The stuffed meat pies delish...and the best find was the Pastel de Nata as good as what you find at the restaurant that invented it in Lisbon! Went back today for more, but unfourtunetly closed, but I'll be back tommorrow!

Llamamos a este café por primera vez hoy 30-10-2019 y las empanadas en las que tuvimos que comer estaban muy cocidas, frías y secas, los cubiertos estaban sucios y el servicio era terrible. Pedimos la comida y el café y no nos dijeron que teníamos que esperar para llevarlo a nuestra mesa, así que después de sentarnos notamos que la comida estaba parada en la caja registradora y las dos damas estaban paradas sin hacer nada. No se molestaron en llamarnos o, como no estaban haciendo nada, nos lo trajeron. No se molestará en volver a esta tienda.

Excellent service and wonderful food and drinks. Will definitely be visiting again soon. Staff very helpful and friendly making you feel welcome instantly

Popped in for a quick bite to eat and a coffee! We were not disappointed! The Cornish pasty was to die for!!! And the white chocolate & fruit bread pudding was heavenly! The coffee was really good as well. Staff very friendly! Highly recommended

One bit of advice, if you have never been here, please do just to see Ash... The reason why I will be back!!!!!

Quaint little place with good quality food to eat in or take away. Friendly and helpful staff.Lovely atmosphere where you can relax and even have a little chin wag with staff who are happy to listen when they have the time in what can be a very busy place with customers return time after time.

Pedimos el bistec / stilton y empanadas tradicionales y estaban bien. Estaba muy ocupado y había pocas mesas disponibles, pero era agradable sentarse y observar a la gente mientras tomaban nuestras empanadas. Pero si usted es alérgico, como mi esposo es o tiene un problema con los perros que están en el restaurante, esto no es para usted. Algunos dueños de perros son atentos con los demás, pero había dos en el restaurante con sus cachorros y los dejaron pasear y olisquear otras mesas, mi esposo comenzó a estornudar y toser poco después de llegar, así que tuvimos que sacar nuestras empanadas junto al océano y eso también estuvo bien.

Popped in for a just out of the oven cheese and bacon scone and drink. Scones are very good and even better when warm with butter and we had timed this just right. However visit was marred by the staff member who sneezed into her hand and then carried on arranging the clean cups on top of the coffee machine without washing her hands first. Unpleasant and unnecessary.

Popped in for an afternoon cuppa and cake which were OK. However, the place was generally dirty - tables and floor didn't look like they had been wiped and swept for hours.

Nichts Besonderes. Nicht besonders freundlich - keine Atmosphäre. Für den schnellen Tee oder Kaffee ausreichend. Keine Bedienung am Tisch. Kein Ort, an den ich zurückkehren möchte.

Looked in the window display of pastries scones pies etc and that’s as good as it got we ordered steak stilton cheese , sausage rolls lemon curd scone toastie etc the steak cheese was dry lacking taste and lacking steak the scone was dry no cream to accompany the price was over priced the wasps enjoyed though as they buzzed about the cabinet keep walking further down a lot more to choose from

Since my last review of this premises, the displays have been changed to open counters.

In need of a cuppa and a scone and spotted this place.
