Prudens Bakery in Dacorum

It is so lovely to see a lovely bakery with items all freshly baked on the premises. The pastry on all their range is amazing, tasty and just the right side of crisp. The fillings are plentiful and delicious. The cake range is eye popping with beautifully balanced ingredients. Lovely rolls and fresh bread. Staff are welcoming and polite and on dry days you can sit outside and watch the day go by. Now, I will talk about the coffee. This unfortunately was a great disappointment. Despite two of us asking for stronger versions, it was to be frank like dishwater. I don't enjoy saying this but I was too embarrassed to say anything at the time. Do not let this distract you from the bakery itself. It is treat to have it on the precinct.

I cant understand what is wrong with the staff at Prudens so Rude un-helpful and always seem stressed. I ordered a lunch over the phone and asked what crisps they had she said im busy and to many to mention! when i picked up my sandwich they had just 4 bags to choose from. Also told me in future when ordering can i allow more time. I was passing hemel hempstead when i placed my order. and anyway next time ill just go in and order as it was not ready anyway!! Used to be a great bakers but it seems like the management have taken there eye of te ball and dont see what is going on on the floor

I used this bakery for the first time because my local dosnt take card , so gave Pruden’s a go . At first I was very impressed with its clean and modern bakery and everything looked appetising , bought some crunchy rolls some soft rolls a finger doughnut and two other cakes . As soon as I got home and saw my bread I was disappointed , the soft rolls were pre packed like in the supermarket , well I would have gone to tesco not the bakery if that was acceptable and well the worst was the crunchy rolls which were anything but , they were stale the state your rolls become the next day , rubbery and went straight in the bin . My finger doughnut was also not fresh , the other two cakes I did not taste but the family said they were good . Never ever again and do not recommend , at least not for bread anyway .
