The Bakehouse in Boston

Stopped in Boston to break our journey home and spotted this near where we parked and from outside it looked lovely. Two toasted tea cakes and two black coffees £12 The two stars were for the friendly staff. The place was filthy- dirty chairs and tables and toilets a disgrace-certainly not been cleaned for a while judging by the number of cobwebs, dirty broom and toilet brush. So disappointed- won’t be visiting again.

After shopping in Boston, popped into The Bakehouse for a coffee before going home. My wife had a Mocca which was £4 and was easily the worst we have ever tasted.

Always good service and lovely food here, we go quite often.

Went today, go every other Wednesday for a small breakfast with my friend. I am above state pension age.So this morning I forgot to ask for 2 small breakfasts, paid the bill & realised I had been charged for full breakfast, pointed out to staff. Seconds later a very rude women put 4 x £1 coins on the table. " You should be more careful when ordering ,you've made my till short " I was shocked! OUR bottled water then turned up in 2 glasses & no bottle "I poured it out for you !" Would like to know if this woman got out the wrong side of the bed, or is it an age thing? Disgusted

My experience of this place is never again thank you poor hygiene throughout, the food i did have was lacklustre with minimal effort made and what he charged me was an absolute joke, paid, left and never again

Having popped in by chance to have a lunchtime snack, didn't have our first request and settled for what they had. When it did arrive they were appalling basic with little effort made. So we put up and shut up which we don't usually do but we were tired after a long trip, went to pay and nearly fell over for what he charged for for 2 basic items and 2 drinks. The hygiene had alot to be desired both in the cafe and the toilets. Needless to say we will not be visiting again.

Great little cafe. Brilliant service by friendly, professional staff.

The Bakehouse is a very nice cosy restaurant serving delicious food you also get a very warm welcome. Would thoroughly recommend this great little gem.

Cosy place with good food and reasonable prices. Took my elderly mum for scampi and chips. Afterwards she enjoyed a very delicious homemade bread and butter pudding with ice cream. The chocolate fudge cake and cream was good too, along with my baked potato with tuna and salad.

Well cold shop food very limited no atmosphere cheap spread on bacon sandwich very little bacon cheap brown sauce greasy full English no chat from server

Such a lovely place to meet up with friends and family. Food very good. Services great. Friendly and helpful staff..

Popped in for a drink and some food very good will be returning 😋

lovely coffee..cute coffee house with lots of food options

Cheerful cafe on the edge of central Boston. Good coffee. Large menu but I always have the basic breakfast items. Always done well. Thanks

Can't fault the food or the lady serving, food delicious and the service from the lady excellent! However, the guy who owns the place needs some customer service skills, having made an innocent comment to another patron he proceeded to try and belittle me in front of a full cafe! I left the establishment and called him all he did was call me 'sweetheart' and talked down to me. I might add, I could have been his mother! He gets too involved with others discussions! Despite the excellent food I will not return!

This is a great place for breakfast, quality of food is excellent, staff very attentive and efficient, love the coffee, friendly atmosphere

We went in to eat some cake and drink coffee . Great and quiet place . Very nice and helpful people . Greetings Polish family on vacation .

The owners often get too involved in their customers lives and take advantage of elderlies disabilities to later slate about their lifestyles and characters to other customers and/or employees. I think it is important to state, the majority of their staff are only sixteen. On too many occasions they have shown that they deal with employee concerns and situations unprofessionally, resulting in the business losing staff regularly.

Wouldn't recommend having your child work for Mick and Sharon as the way they deal with things is unprofessional, they under paid my child 2 weeks and trying to get it corrected they took it out of proportion. they wanted to deal with my child on his own with bad anxiety so I said I would go to simplify things to my son if he didn't understand what they were explaining about payroll and they threaten me with police so my friend went along and Mick got in her face and cornered her into a corner in front of customers. the way they talk and treat the staff is a joke, not respected at all. Mick also slates his customers telling people how a certain one lives and not fair on the customers also having 16 year olds cooking full on meals with no training or supervision pulling the kids down when they've made a mistake

Market end of town taken to pop in for breakfast and giant coffee I had heart op and for odd reason have craving for 2 slices toast 3 crispy bacon and 2 fried eggs on top done to perfection. . Must admit i like it ticks all box's Nice owners ..staff .. clean and tranquil

this very down to earth cafe produces some really good food at excellent prices. The owner is the only lady i know who can make a dressing which can make a lettuce leaf delicious and that's an art. lifes not easy anywhere but they try really hard, there is always a friendly smile when we visit and somewhere we will continue to frequent when in Boston.

We dropped in for a cuppa after touring the market and both felt absolutely repulsed by state of the toilets. Smelly, dirty and broken. Clearly nobody bothers to clean these and I am surprise the council inspectors allow them to stay in business.

Popped in for a quick bite and coffee. Very pleasant service and the quality of the meal was good - The value for money here is unreal! Was full to the brim, with a takeaway coffee and had change from a £10 note. Couldn't not leave a review.

We recently visited this cafe whilst on holiday. Food was lovely but the meal was spoilt by the disgusting tea which had loads of scum on it and a rude waitress who said we had left the tea bag in too long that’s why it had scum! I don’t like strong tea so had taken the teabag out as soon as it was served to us! A good cafe would have given us a fresh pot! Won’t be back.

Nice friendly cafe. Good service and reasonable prices. Easy to park opposite too Good pitstop location and nice coffee!

This is a simple cafe serving some great food at inexpensive prices. its an OMB and they work really hard to serve customers with hot tasty food. if you dont want a fry up they have other excellent options including a delicious Greek Salad. a great place to take the girlfriend to eat as long as the wifes not there!

Very nice, friendly place. food done well.

The lady that greeted us was lovely, the service was great and timely. Covid control was perfect with sanitiser upon entry and staff were in masks. The food (we had Panini's) was flavourful and hot. We will be back!

A little gem tucked away in the corner of the cattle marked. I went for breakfast. Bacon sandwich was amazing.Proper cut of tasty meat. My other half had a gried egg sandwich which was also really really good. Coffee was very tasty too. In present times you cannot sit inside but a handy bench in the cattle market car park was a good spot to sit.

Thought we would try this cafe for a change from our usual place, was very dissatisfied.Ordered breakfast which arrived with cold beans, complained so they did another but returned with the rest of items cold . Decided we did not want anything else so we left ,was going to pay for the drinks but was told just to get out . I have never had to complain about food before but this was not good

Been here a couple of times now. The owner is very friendly and helpful, the food is delicious and the service excellent. Can highly recommend the Brie, Bacon and Mango Baguette or Pannini. I was dubious at first as I don't like mango but we tried it and are now addicted.

Two seniors who travel to Boston at various times during the year, always call here for breakfast. A very pleasant welcome, and the menu, although it rarely changes, is perfectly adequate. Quality of the food is fine, and everything is cooked to order. Nice to really notice, that although it is an old building the tables etc. are kept beautifully clean. Car parking opposite is chargeable, but nothing silly, and there always appears to be room.

I had never Visited this cafe before considering it has been there for some time now. Me and my friend thought we Would Try something Different for a change, So we both decided to eat at the Bakehouse. We were Welcomed with a warm Greeting from the staff who came to take our Orders straight away. No wasted time... the Food came straight to our table a few Minutes later which was excellent, however, I noticed that Two of our Orders were Wrong, I asked for Brown Bread and recieved White for the Sandwhich. My Friend requested a Strawberry milkshake and he Recieved Chocolate milkshake instead. We Weren't too fussed about this Error as we both Enjoyed what we Had anyway, The Food was Freshly prepared and Tasted Good. I Ordered A Mocha for my Drink and I hate to Say it But it was Not very Nice atall and was Poorly Presented... it just looked a mess. Unfortunately I Left the Drink as I could not finish it. We thought we both Would try the Chocolate Fudge Cake with Cream and it was Very Enjoyable and Very Rich! Overall I was not entirely impressed with my Experience at the bakehouse and we managed to looked past the Incorrect orders, however the Staff were Very Friendly and Polite, We had a good Laugh with them. I May visit here again to see if my Experience will Differ from the last one but for my First visit, It was Average.

With our little dog Rosie and the pouring rain, it was with relief that we were welcomed in and as long as we agreed to sit in the rear room, we were able to have breakfast. We both chose the full english at a very reasonable cost and were pleasantly surprised. Generous portion, quick and friendly service and not greasy or salty, but good tasting food. Thank you.

Went with my mother for lunch. I was disappointed they had run out of snitzel, but I enjoyed a ceasar salad and my mum had a panini. Prices were reasonable and the rest of the menu looked very nice.

We've been for a day trip to Boston, and after climbing St. Botolph's we needed lunch. At the Bakehouse we had a very heartly welcome, tasty pulled pork and pulled beef, fresh salad with a fantastic homemade dressing. The owners were very kind by giving advice what to visit. We can only recommend it!

Great for breakfast and lunch. A wide choice of food is prepared and its clean hygienic and tasty. The owners work very hard.

Ordered breakfast eggs were not cooked properly crispy at bottom and nearly raw on top one of the rashers of bacon was so well done it snapped in half

We call in every so often for a lovely pot of tea and a really great meal of Pork Schnitzel, fresh Greek salad with balsamic dip and a 'naughty' bowl of chips followed by a slice of cake and cream!The standard is excellent and never varies in quality. The service is good, too, even when the cafe gets very busy and the cost is very reasonable compared with other similar establishments.Full marks to the owners for a first-class addition to the town cafes!

Great find. Bacon butty on lovely fresh bread. Salami mozzarella tomato & pesto panini Great tasting fresh food. Large latte and a lovely teapot for 1. Great customer service lovely and clean Menu different and inspiring Food & drink very reasonably priced. Would definitely reccomend.

Service not that quick as cooked to order, well worth the wait. Good location as opposite the car parks and the Market too on Weds and Saturdays.

Came for a panini, which is a fond favourite from this cafe, but instead had a veggie breakfast which was perfect.

We stopped of here for brunch on the way home from holiday and had a very enjoyable break. The food was good and at a fair price.

Having walked into town I needed a coffee an a light bite. The Bakehouse looked inviting so I went in.

This is a really lovely traditional cafe, no frills, reasonably priced food served in comfortable and clean surroundings. There is a very varied menu but all the prices are good. We just had coffee and cake but the chocolate fudge cake and the lemon curd cake are both divine!
