R Little Bakers in Dumfries & Galloway

Was heading to Carlisle for a meeting this week and stopped in Moffat. I didn't have long so decided to buy a sandwich and cake. Was served by an extremely rude and badly trained and brash assistant. Customer service certainly wasn't her forte. She must have missed the staff training session, and is absolutely unsuited to the retail sector. Hopefully, the owner will realise this. As for the food, the sandwich was decidedly average, bland and tasteless. To make matters worse I was given the wrong cake which looked somewhat tired. I certainly wouldn't recommend this outlet. To quote Dionne Warwick "Walk On By."

Stopped in Moffat en route to Glasgow on business. Unfortunately,I had the misfortune to be served by an extremely unfriendly and unhelpful sales assistant. This type of person used to be know as a chav. Whoever owns the business needs to be more careful who they hire. The sandwich wasn't even third rate and ended up in the bin. Take my advice give this bakers a miss.

Make a beeline for this bakers whenever I am in Moffat as they bake the best treacle scones ever a very firm favourite of mine & so versatile when camping. Their freshly made sandwiches on a variety of fresh baked bread or rolls of your choice are simply delicious. The staff are very friendly & easy to talk to & I just enjoy visiting this shop. The only problem I have is deciding what to choose, very difficult. I think I will have to make repeated visits to sample every tempting thing 😂🤣👍🏻🤩

A great asset in Moffat, this lovely quaint bakery selling, great, bread , cakes and savouries.. The shortbread is lovely too.

Littles is a fantastic traditional bakers with a wide range of bakery products, all that I have tried being of a very high standard. Particular mention must be made of the superb oatcakes and potato scones which must be the best in Scotland. The takeaway food is of good quality and generous helpings. The staff are very pleasant and helpful. One small plea would be to get a better coffee machine and/or to use paper cups rather than polystyrene ones. It really is a small point - everything else is great and I can always get my coffee at the garage!

Definitely spoilt for choice every thing looks amazing, and just like Moffat it is well worth a visit

we came to moffat for the weekend and went here specifically both mornings to buy the potato scones for breakfast- the best i have ever tasted!! So thick and fluffy, totally reccommend :)

came here for homemade potato scones they were the best in the world loved them lovely wee bakers , friendly staff

You must buy the Moffatt fruit loaf . Excellent,,, we also had a few other pies & rolls too but very good prices and clean premises

Whenever we visit Scotland we always pop into Little’s to stock up with goodies on our way back to England. They are famous for their potato scones, and rightly so, and I always get the triangular ones. They also do a full range of Scottish favourites such as Scotch pancakes, crumpets, treacle scones etc., as well as good pies, bridies and other savouries. Top marks on this trip however must go to their range of cakes, especially the ones with fresh cream, including those Scottish staples of Strawberry tarts and pineapple tarts. Fabulous stuff!

We stopped here before heading back home for our lunch. Good selection of sandwiches, we opted for the ham salad and tuna salad and to follow, a couple of cakes, as well as a some shortcake to bring home. Nice and fresh, these hit the spot when we stopped for a break later in the day.

Called in here for some pasties and fresh cream cakes. There was a good selection and reasonably priced

Visited the shop whilst on motorbike tour staying in Moffat,lovely display of delicious looking products,however being on a diet I restrained myself and settled for a Scotch Pie,absolutely delicious,not only that the blonde haired lady that served me was also delicious,very attractive. I’d certainly recommend this confectioners.

You have to go here, its just a brilliant baker, we had loads, i cant list it all! Just a must visit

Terrible customer service, surprised this business is still going. No idea what the food is like, wouldn't part with cash to support the business or the rude obnoxious staff.

I visited this shop yesterday. There has been confusion this week about where face masks are used (ie cafes allow people To enter without face masks), therefore it is understandable that myself (and 5 other customers whilst I was there), entered the store without a face mask. There was no sign on the door asking for a face mask to be worn. What I found abhorrent was the absolute rudeness of the staff, which not only was directed at me, but also at the 5 other customers, 3 of which were elderly!! The staff were absolutely out of order with rudeness, it was disgusting to witness. Some tips for your establishment and staff:- - put a clear sign on the door asking people to wear a mask - consider offering disposable face masks at the door for a small fee for those who have forgotten or don’t have these - consider a more professional approach- not ridiculing customers nor aggressive dialogue... remember that these are your customers and they may need advice/help rather than chastising, they won’t return when this is all over with your poor attitude - consider offering a service which includes passing food out rather than people entering the shop **i have always made an effort to stop in Moffat on my journey to Edinburgh. I have recommended this town to my friends. However after this poor experience, I don’t think I would bother again. I did not feel welcome. Good luck with your business

Why is this under restaurants? It is not a restaurant, it's a baker's shop!They have a lot of proper Scottish baked goods that you won't see in Greggs or other chain shops. Staff a bit abrupt and grumpy though.One review said it was on the left (or did it say the right?) as you come into Moffat. Well it is both the left and the right cos it is on a two way street and you could be coming in either direction.

Great fresh food with helpful staff and service from local shop and well worth a try for baked goods.

We do love a proper bakers and R Little had lovely rolls, sausage rolls, scummy cakes and hand baked shortbread and oatcakes, perfect for presents.

We spent over £13 buying a Melrose tasty, which was a lovely fruit loaf made with Moffat toffee. We also bought 2 pasties and asked if they had meat in them, the assistant said they were Cornish pasties, but did not confirm that they had meat in them. They tasted ok but were in a lot of heavy pastry. We also bought a jap cake which was really disappointing, the biscuit was too sweet and very crumbly, they are so much nicer when they go sticky inside, also the filling wasn't a very nice buttercream (maybe because it was something else). The eccles cake we bought was good and we also bought some potato scones which we haven't tried yet as we have frozen them to take home.

We stayed in Moffat recently, to do some walking, and found this family-run bakery a delight. The food they make is excellent, especially their Scotch pies. Thoroughly recommended.

I bought my tattie scones from here and, although well-fired is not an option any longer they were superb. All the baking looked good including the scones and the bread.The Little's are part of my extended family from way back and they do not let the family down with their quality

Popped into Moffat for a lunch break on the way back from holiday. My husband wanted to buy scotch pies and I wanted fresh scones. We found both plus delicious chocolate brownies in this lovely little bakers at the bottom of the High street on your way into Moffat. They also do scotch scones and bread. Well worth a stop off.

Bought a Fruit Slice to take home, but it got eaten almost immediately. Bought a packet of Shortbread as a gift for a friend who said it was delicious. Lots of lovely cakes on display. Bread looked very tempting to!

Independent bakers with lots of savouries as well as cakes. Kids enjoyed their sweet treats and staff were friendly. Sometimes there is even some samples out for a wee taste!

Lovely "proper" bread and yummy cakes. So nice to see a traditional baker's shop. Quite a few times we have called in here to buy filled rolls and cakes for a picnic. Some of these delicious sweet treats are things we don't see down south which makes them more exciting.

Great selection of cakes and bread available at this establishment, all freshly made and taste lovely.

Bought lovely granary bread fab fruit scones apple slices and fruit slices everything was delicious very clean laid out shop

Great value for money and home baked baps are generously filled and cakes are scrumpy so easy for taking picnics.

lots of choice ideal for a treat all home made goods, brilliant staff all friendly and helpful. can get busy but thats a good sign, locals, workmen, and tourists alike use this brilliant old shop.

So nice to see a traditional bakers shop. Bought four huge pancakes and two cream donut buns. All tasted fantastic. Much nicer than the supermarket stuff we all get now. All towns should have a bakers of this quality.

Had lovely bakery goods. Our very favourites were custard slice, Apple turnover and the obstacles which had a lovely nutty taste. This bakery has also a grab and go facility for lunch.

We bought some homemade pies from a Farmers Market in Kirkcudbright. Chicken & Leek, Peppered Mushroom & Ham Hock & Chicken. Excellent ... just wish we lived closer to Moffat! Would definitely recommend!

This is a small yet perfectly formed bakery in the heart of the town.

Oh could put on pounds just walking past the window. Old fashioned style bakers, delicious tasty cakes , scones bread etc etc. Always visit when in town. Try it !

Filled up here for lunch with a variety of goodies. All excellent and well priced. Nice friendly service.

When visiting Scotland we always bring home some scotch pies and I can honestly say that R Littles are the best I have tried yet!

Been here many times in the past when going back and forth to Edinburgh. This time were were staying in Moffat and we had asked friends and family back home for a shopping list. On that list were steak bridies which we asked for to find out when back in England that we'd been given mince and onion :( Everything else was good.

Called here en route south from the Highlands. It is a short walk up from the coach stop at Moffat Mill and worth the stretch of ones legs. My friend enjoyed a beautiful scone buttered and wrapped to take out. I purchased some potato scones to bring home and oatcakes. Excellent local produce and reasonable prices which I enjoyed on my arrivsl home.

Lovely range of cakes, scones, oatcakes, tarts, pies and specialities. Thoroughly enjoyed everything we bought here.

Lovely sandwiches, pasties and cakes. Friendly staff and reasonably priced. Set in a good position, just up from the coach park. Not a sit in and eat place.

Unusual pastries and a great selection. Border Tart was to die for. Tried to get the recipe as we live in Yorkshire which is a long way to visit for a pie. No luck but I will keep trying recipes.

A visit to Moffat must include this baker's shop. In addition. To their excellent cakes and pastries they offer hot snacks and coffee. The bacon rolls are wwell filled and very good quality meat and there are also hot sausage rolls and other items.

A part of the history of Moffat. Littles bakery on the High Street, is a well beloved establishment. Fresh baked goods daily. Scotch pies are some of the best I've ever eaten. The thing which stands littles apart is the potato scones, voted the best in Scotland. Try these and no other will do. The staff are lovely, especially Rosie, who always has a cheerful smile and friendly word.

Little's is situated on Moffat High Street, just as you enter from the M74 end.
