The Bakehouse in Moray

Walked into Findhorn from eco village campsite just one mile away. beautiful weather. We stopped in for coffee and a bacon roll, one with egg. Sat outside in the sunshine and breakfast/brunch was perfect. Service brilliant, couldn't have asked for better. Value? atmosphere was lovely, service perfect, seating adequate, everything hot and tasty. cost? worth every penny.

My mum and I had such a lovely mocha here. We always stop for a take away coffee, and sometimes a cake, after a walk in Findhorn. The deli has some wonderful produce. I would love it to become a sit in cafe again as it’s so good.

I have a disability and was driving from Inverness to Findhorn - needed to stop for a drink so i could take my medication and popped into this shop/Cafe to order some food and a drink. I walked in aided by my small dog and this Elderly woman came up to me - from nowhere and in an abrupt manner told me " no dogs allowed " and started staring at me as i left the Shop. She could see my disability and didn't take this into consideration - on the contary she was very inconsiderate and treated me poorly. She failed to ask me if i was okay or needed anything and was more concerned about my small dog getting out of her shop. I definitely would not recommend anyone who has a disability or a service dog using this shop. Its self evident that they don't cater towards people who have a disability and they're clearly anti dogs. This surprised me as Findhorn is a dog friendly place. Unfriendly Service and Poor Customer Service by this Woman. This is my reason for 1 star

Be aware that the photo attached to this place is out of date. The sit in cafe doesn’t exist and has been changed to an upmarket deli with the option of some take out food….cakes, homemade quiche (£3.50 per SLICE!!!), etc and, on Friday & Saturday evenings (5 -7pm) take out pizza. Which I sampled this evening. Sadly, I will not revisit for pizza (the deli is good though, if expensive). The pizza (a Veneziana)) was only slightly above warm, the base was tough and very chewy and the toppings were actually pretty tasteless. Overall underwhelming and disappointing. Should have stuck with The Captain’s Table’s pizza but I fancied a change/something new whilst still keeping it local 🙁.

Lovely cakes & biscuits we bought to enjoy later are delicious. Other food looked good, fresh produce in shop looked good quality.

If you are after a decent take out hot chocolate or for that matter a coffee, be prepared not to be impressed. We shan’t be going to the Bakehouse again for a take out, a pity there is no competition in Findhorn. The paper mug was half froth, the chocolate was not hot and most importantly, the staff could t be bothered to mix the chocolate properly. Most of it was a blob at the bottom and half of that was still dry chocolate. I couldn’t be bothered to go back in and complain.

Packed a cool bag and forgot it, came across this place on our hunt for a wee lunch. Takeaway only at the moment but a few picnic benches outside. Pleasant staff, lovely counter display, it's also a food shop selling fresh and dried goods. I had the spiced coconut vegetable curry and it was one of the best and most delicious I have EVER tasted (I told the chef - if you're reading this, Im ready for more already!). It was in a takeaway cup which was a big portion, and came with a huge flatbread that tasted fresh out the oven. A bargain for £4.50. My husband loved his bacon and haggis roll (he asked for bacon egg and haggis but I think he was misheard, loved it anyway) and our coffee and chai latte were lovely too. Service was fast and friendly. We will be back!

Absolutely brilliant bakery, we had breakfast rolls and coffees all of which were delicious. We decided to try their takeaway pizzas one night which did not disappoint. The staff were very friendly and willing to make changes to our pizzas where requested. We also bought fresh bread and locally made jam which was out of this world. We will definitely be back!

The coffee on was tremendous on both our visits with two different creators so it's all in the training.The bacon and haggis rolls were just as wonderful and the seeded spelt loaf and pecan and ginger biscuits tasted like they were made by masters of their trade.Superb place in every way-staff friendly and precise......go !

They are only offering take away coffee and baps at the moment. We would've liked to have eaten in but I guess it's just due to covid stuff. Great value here. Delicious venison sausage bap £2.50. Good coffee. Sweet and friendly staff. Enjoyable

Sat in the sun outside for latte and 🍰 cakes 😋 lots to choose from good selection of vegan etc worth a 2nd visit

Can’t recommend highly enough for excellent coffee, cake, wide variety of organic foods and fruit / veg, and great fresh bread. Pizza on weekend evening v v good but book ahead.

Love this place for breakfast. Spent a couple of hours cycling around Moray before having a pit stop here for a great breakfast. Love the french toast and bacon with maple syrup best walked down with a strong coffee.

Fantastic filo pasty for lunch, vegetarian and quite obviously homemade. Coffee is lovely with cheap refills. Deserts are amazing. My only negative ( and I hate to use this word) is the veg breakkie. Sausages didnt seem homemade and not sure what the bacon imitation was? But I would definately go again , there is so much choice so next time we’ll swap veg breakkie for one of the other tasty options

booking was advised even in mid-January as people obviously travel from afar to enjoy fresh and varied cooking and bakery here.

As the title says - the organic porridge from this little cafe is utterly superb, huge portion served with honey and single cream. Service prompt and efficient with very good quality coffee. The almond crosiants are again absolutely melt in the mouth and MUST be tried. I'd like there to be a more regular/casual takeaway pizza service as opposed to pre-ordered in advance. Only other thing from me would maybe be a few more tables in the place as it can get quite busy quite quickly. Thanks

My wife, my brother and his wife and I called in here for a light snack whilst visiting the Moray Coast. My wife and I have been here several times over the years but this was a first for my brother and sister-in-law. They both adored the place we all had coffee and 3 of us sampled the delicious cakes. Blackberry & Apple Loaf. Carrot Cake and Chocolate Roulade. All were absolutely delicious and the coffees were pleasantly smooth. A lovely little café attached to the bakery which sells a wide selection of artisan breads. Highly Recommended

Ten years ago I ate the most outstanding pizza patate in Tuscany. I have pined for one as delicious since, tonight I ate it. I regularly enjoy the Bakehouse pizzas, they are amazing but tonight I had a Rosmarino with the blue cheese swapped for buffalo mozzarella and it was simply divine. Beautiful base, just enough crust, perfect balance of toppings and perfect seasoning. If you appreciate carefully well made pizza, made with care and love, this is the one. Fab u lous!

Excellent coffee and cake. They also sell freshly baked bread and a range of artisan food including organic vegetables.

A real 'find' to be in a small village. This cafe has a great buzz about it. It serves good food and drink. Most of it is made on the premises. The gluten-free nut and seed balls are far too nice!

Great little cafe open for lunch and breakfast. Bakery with fresh organic bread, rolls and cakes : glutenfree /vegan available. A selection of local goodies (veg, honey, fruit and more) available to buy. Also small selection wood work, glass art... Pizza nights - takeaway as well available on weekends during summer. Preorder necessary. Highly recommend..

Well, I guess not everybody comes through Findhorn on their Scotland holidays, therefore for us this cafe was a real discovery. We relied on our gude and went there only to have a coffee, while Findhorn appeared to be a destination itsself too! Anyway, the nice little cafe & bakery has a lovely atmosphere and one does not know what to chose because everything looks so tempting. The personnel was so lovely and the food was so excellent, in additon to their philosophy to use only organic / local ingredients. We'd love to come back one day!

real good mehu , great veggie dishes , love the Kompucha home made, home mmade bread a lot of varity

Friendly folk welcome you to a cafe full of tasty choices which are served quickly to the hungry traveller. Generous portions, organic and local where possible, so it is all good! Though full up after my sandwich I did share a chocolate and cherry brownie with my husband... wish I had eaten it by myself, it was delicious!

We were staying in Findhorn and were catering for ourselves and would have loved to have dined in the cafe because it looked and smellled so good! But we had stocked up with a load of food to cook for ourselves.

Best food we’ve had in the area, organic, fresh, local produce. Fresh bakery, homemade bread, honey, Orkney ground flour, cakes to die for.

I’m a regular customer at the Bakehouse and I am in love with their choice of coffee! Life is full of mysteries and I can’t explain why my taste buds and their coffee brand are such a perfect match. The staff smile when I arrive to make my order!

Ecco un posticino carinissimo dove fermarsi la mattina per un buon caffè espresso. All'interno della struttura, un bel bancone con vari dolci fatti in casa, anche per vegani, e la possibilità di acquistare prodotti locali. Staff cordiale e preparato. P.S. Per un buon caffè, chiedete allo staff un caffè espresso corto, altrimenti arriva la brodaglia inglese.

simpatico e praticissimo locale a Findorm, li sono riuscito, dopo giorni, ad avere un buon espresso come piace a me

The owner of this gem of a place went above and beyond to find us space in this understandably popular cafe. The breakfast was delicious and the coffee was incredible. Definitely worth a visit.

We had lunch here last week, Good selection. I had the all day breakfast and my wife had the bacon and brie faccacio. Both excellent. Lovely pot of tea to accompany. Very busy.

Great coffee, great food, tried the breakfast when we were there can’t fault staff friendly and great service bread made daily on there on site bakery

Vous connaissez ces lieux où dès que vous êtes entré vous vous sentez bien ? Et bien the bakehouse cafe est un endroit comme ça , vous entrez, choisissez une place et vous êtes à la maison. La dame qui nous a accueilli était absolument adorable . Le repas était très bon, j’ai pris un plat végétarien très copieux et délicieux , les garçons avaient pris le burger au bœuf , excellent, et ma fille un sandwich bacon/cheddar , très bon également .j’ai mangé le meilleur gâteau au chocolat vegan ! Le cheesecake était très bien aussi . Le rapport qualité/prix est imbattable. C’est une adresse à retenir

Fantastic bakery/restaurant located in the quaint seaside town of Findhorn. The food was delicious and the portions are generous. I had one of their specials of the day, which was smoked haddock fishcakes & salad and it was really good. They have plenty of vegetarian options too. The baked goods are amazing and lots of unusual whole grain options too. They use local ingredients & organic when possible. We left with small bag of baked goods too! After eating here it’s nice to take a walk around the bay or along the beach, both of which are only a few minutes walk from the restaurant. I wish I had a restaurant/bakery like this where I live!

We went as a family for breakfast when in opened at 10am and all the food was perfect. From the scrambled egg, bacon rolls, french toast etc. All freshly prepared and served by pleasant waiter. Thanks, never disappointed here.

Arrived around 14.00 and cafe still very busy, always a good sign. Staff very pleasant. Food very tasty, best chocolate brownie I've ever had. Only one issue was the amount of flies.

Having given a less than complimentary review in the past, i am delighted that normality has resumed to this lovely little place. Great food!

Went here for lunch. We had Falafels with hummus and also Filo pastry dish.

We visited the cafe for lunch. The atmosphere was relaxed, the service was prompt and friendly. All of us had mains from the specials board and they were tasty and filling. We ended up buying cakes - which were also delicious- and bread to take away with us. Easily the best place to eat on this part of Scotland!

Had coffee and scones here with lovely homemade jam. Very busy cafe which gets booked up quickly for breakfast we couldn’t get but heard the breakfast is very good

The Bakehouse, in the small seaside village of Findhorn, is an absolute gem. I visit Findhorn annually for several weeks, and enjoy several morning coffees or meals at the Bakehouse during my vacation. Friday and Saturday nights during summer they specialise in Pizza Nights. Last night I dined there, with 3 friends, and enjoyed the best pizza I have ever had! Absolutely delicious! We had several pizzas, mine being a mushroom pizza. Well done David and your team.

Great place offering homemade cakes and coffee etc . Specifically catering for people with dietary requirements.

Pizza Nights are Friday and Saturday.

What an amazing cafe! Worth going to Scotland just for this place. Bread, cakes, specials, biscuits...all done to perfection. Just wish i lived next door!!

Lovely warm smile at the counter. A couple of delicious baked goods to take home and enjoy later on. And a loaf of sourdough that was even better received than I had hoped.

Inspired by very positive reviews and the all important word-of-mouths I visited The Bakehouse twice this week during a family holiday in Findhorn.

Great little friendly place to stop for breakfast lunch or pizza night dinners. Lovely fresh food and a selection of freshly baked breads and local produce to buy.

Disappointed to return here and have a cakes that were not fresh and average coffee. Chocolate roulade was my favourite but it did not taste fresh at all.

We’ve never visited Findhorn before and after a bracing walk this cafe was a perfect stop. The food choices were varied and inviting. Our group had everything from dahl to halloumi. The all day breakfast also looked delicious and included such specialities as eggs Benedict. The cafe is clean, bright and welcoming and as a result, very popular. We were glad to have booked a table and the gave us a lovely one in the window. There was also a fabulous cake selection. So guess what ... we’re heading back tomorrow with family, those cakes were too tempting!

Because the food here is brilliant, diverted 5 miles after a long country walk for coffee and cake. Parking nearby isn't easy so entered cafe just on/after 4pm. Tables were full of happy, coffee drinking customers but the steely eyed young guy on the counter while happy to sell us cake would in no way serve coffee. After that, genuinely too late to get served elsewhere. Truly bad impression.

I loved the bakehouse when I visited 5 years ago and loved it more this visit.

We happened to stop at The Bakehouse with a simple right time, right place. Most tables had reservations, we soon understood why. The staff are doing a great job at creating dishes which are delicious, but also healthy and sustainable.

Wonderful breads and wonderful breakfasts, with great, fresh, organic eggs and fantastic bacon. Good GF cakes. It tends to get crowded on the weekends, and the table reservation system is kind of Byzantine. Go with the flow.

Just great- porridge, fruit and cream Amazing !😮bacon rolls, 😮 coffee , 😮 just can’t get any better really 💕💕

Stopped at the Bakehouse for lunch. Food was very good and all locally produced. Staff were very helpful and friendly

We have just enjoyed a tasty lunch of Pitta bread, beetroot hummus and salad HOWEVER, it was very much overpriced at £7.50 per head. I understand a profit has to be made but really, when totting up how much this meal would have cost to make we are talking £ 2.00 maximum. Not a bad profit at £5.50 per person. Had this meal been more realistically priced we would have been much happier - hence the review marking of one.

No more bakehouse for me! Have always loved it here but just had to send back a really weird tasting fishcake. Was told there was nothing wrong with it and if I wanted another meal I'd have to pay again. Expensive way to leave hungry and one less customer for them. Could've lived without the attitude as well.

We stopped at the Bakehouse for lunch recently whilst on holiday and had a lovely experience. Great, locally sourced food, lovely atmosphere and great service. Very cosy, warm and welcoming. The coffee was also perfect!

Had a few breakfasts here - porridge with compote, eggs Benedict, the cakes and coffee all excellent. Easy to see why it’s number 1. Brilliant stuff.

This place was recommended to us by a relative living up here for breakfast. It's absolutely lovely: lovely decor and ambience but most importantly fab food and coffees.

Absolutory fantastic local bakery . From cakes to bread to cakes , just to die for .The coffee was absolutely perfect .All organic and made on the premises , you can buy the produce on the morning before the café opens . So well worth a visit especially after a walk on the fantastic beach .

We were out for a walk round Findhorn and had a stop here for a coffee. We both had Americano coffees that were nice and strong, we also had an apple pastry that was so good with nice flaky pastry.

I visit Findhorn every year, and love eating at the Bakehouse. Good food and coffee are always the ‘norm’ there! The choices are many and varied, no matter what time of the day one visits. During my visits this year, I have enjoyed several breakfasts, lunches and morning teas. The quality is always fantastic. Well done to owners and staff!

This cafe is quite small. Surprisingly they take table bookings. They offer a lovely range of homemade breads and biscuits and indulgent cakes. Some fresh fruit and veg are available. Good coffee served quite quickly. Friendly welcome and service

Just to give you a clue, by day two of our stay the waiter knew our coffee preferences, and was almost a member of the family. No matter where we sat, inside our out, our drinks were brought to us, while the children roamed the shop looking at souvenirs etc, or joined us for Miele's ice cream. The views either from the seats or sofa inside, or the benches and tables outside, are wonderful.

Lovely cafe and bakery. Terrific range of freshly baked breads and nice choice of food and drinks. Really enjoyed fruit scone and coffee. Recommend.

Ordered a full breakfast and a veg breakfast, coffee is good . Average food - wouldn’t hurry back . Ordered a takeaway pizza one evening which was nice

Great place to stop, relax and indulge in a bit of cake. I had the vegan chocolate cake with rasps and J had the fruit tart. Both were superb. I think their Americano is the best tasting coffee in this area. We thoroughly enjoyed the visit.

If you ever find yourself in or around Findhorn then do yourself a favour and drop in to The Bakehouse.

We walked to the bakehouse from the beach in about 5 minutes to get some lunch with our two young children. The food was really good, freshly prepared and delicious. The staff were friendly and there was a relaxed atmosphere. We also bought a sourdough loaf and some cookies - all of which was great quality. Definitely worth a trip if you are having a day at the beach.

The Almond croissants could get me fat if it lived here. They actually come from a Patisserie in Nairn but none the less delicious for having travelled as few miles. Often fresh and warm abs despite having worked in Paris unlike any other croissant I've ever had. A must try. Nice veggie pizza

Visited after a stroll around Findhorn. Huge variety of cakes to suit all dietary requirements and healthy lunch options on a specials board. The Cullen Skink soup was absolutely delicious. Also had the Dundee cake and Black Forest roulade. The drinks are fair trade and cold drinks organic. There are several breads baked daily for sale and local crafts. The Bakehouse is based around ethical eating and well being and would happily eat my way round the menu!

We were staying in Findhorn and it was great to have a cafe near by to call in to for a coffee. There is an attached bakery and you can buy the bread in the cafe or at the back door each morning before the cafe opens at 10 am. Great coffee and bread!

A little oasis. Stopped for a late breakfast, then came back later for tea and cake (so much choice!).

Just finished lunch at this gem, where the vibe is relaxed but the staff are efficient and the food is very good. Great choices on offer, but I opted for roast beetroot and feta salad and wasn't disappointed. Want to try everything on the menu so now wondering how many meals I can have here on a two day trip before they regard it as stalking!!

Popped in with a local friend one Monday lunchtime. Shouldn't be busy on a Monday lunchtime, should it? Well it was heaving! And quite right too!

We visited the Bakehouse for a light lunch. It looked interesting when we entered and the cakes looked nice but the food turned out to be average. Service and cost were fine but won't rush back.

Everything is superb quality; the coffee, the food, the bread, the service and the little craft section. The selection of food is big considering the size of the Bakehouse. We had soup, full breakfast and sandwiches and all were super fresh. Special mention of the staff who were so nice and smiley. I can't wait to go back! Beautiful!

Great coffee and lovely cakes,what more could you ask for?! There is a selection of breads,biscuits and other locally made products to buy too..definitely worth a visit!

Had the French toast, maple and bacon for breakfast. It was absolutely delicious, made using proper home-made bread, real maple syrup and good bacon. Served fairly quickly, in a lovely atmosphere with loads of other interesting things to look at whilst we waited (they sell bread, cakes, and veg to take away, as we as some local crafts... I ended up buying a hand-weaved basket whilst I was there!)

What a find . Great selection of cakes and bread to buy . Would especially recommend to any friends on gluten free diet . Will definitely visit again next time we are in the area 😋

A great café with lovely food. There was one issue with our otherwise very tasty lunch today: this was dealt with so well it could be a case study for a customer care manual. Well done and thank you.

Visited here today and the choice was amazing....place was nonstop busy with quick efficient service and, with all tastes catered for , I’m not surprised! ....a mix of the usual choices alongside vegan and organic food with side sales of fresh organic eggs and veg, Honey and loads more....open for breakfast and all day food.......the cakes and pastries choice was amaaaazing! The place was out the door and this is just February!! ...

As always the food and service was superb. We had taste of India (see photo) which was amazing, so tasty

Amazing place for a coffee stop or lunch. We love heading here for some vegan or gluten free cakes with friends. So delicious and something for everyone!

Great ambience showcasing local produce, bakery on site. The food is amazing with a great selection of food, catering to...

This is a great place to stop and eat if you're spending time in Findhorn. Food is freshly prepared with...

What a great place for brunch and lunch! The staff are all lovely. We have also had take-away pizza from...

we returned to this cafe after a 2 year gap and were delighted to find quality and range better than...

Lovely lunch, very fresh. Staff friendly. Quite expensive but worth it. Our table was close to door so a little chilly. Would definitely recommend.

Always busy no matter what time of day thanks to the delicious food on offer. I recommend the goats' cheese and beetroot pizza.

excellent meals, coffee, vegan,gluten free and dairy free are catered to. Thoroughly loved here, staff were kind and courteous.

We stopped off at the end of our walk from

We stopped in to buy some cookies and other cakes. Plenty of Gluten free options and the GF cookies I bought were delicious. We did not sit in.

What a beautiful cafe with a warm, relaxed and friendly atmosphere. We visited for a cuppa and a cake - my husband had two cakes they were so good lol. The staff are simply lovely - we had not realised that the cafe closes at 4pm and were sitting at the table past that time with no hint of dissatisfaction from staff. There were some other tourists came in and were informed the cafe was now closed but they allowed them to purchase cakes to take away. Lots of reading material and art and crafts for sale. I highly recommend. Beautiful place, gentle people.

The Bakehouse have only recently started serving tapas on a Friday and Saturday evening.The food served is both traditional tapas favourites as well as some excellent interpretations of food of this type.The Bakehouse always has superbly friendly staff and is well worth a visit for a quick coffee or a delicious lunch very much based on fresh organic ingredients.A little gem and so well managed by David and Jan.

While holidaying in Findhorn, on my annual visiit, I once again had the pleasure of dining at the Bakehouse. This year the speciality at the weekend was Tapas. There were four in our party, so we all ordered something different, so that we could share the varying tastes of the comprehensive menu. Wow! What flavours, and all so tasty. We all thoroughly enjoyed our evening, being waited on by the friendly and efficient David and Jan. I would highly recommend the Bakehouse for dinner, or at any other time of the day - breakfast, morning coffee, lunch or afternoon tea. Great food.

Wat een heerlijke taartjes hebben ze hier. Ook de organisch groenten zijn super vers.Eerst een goede strandwandeling gemaakt en daarna taart. Lieve fijne bediening.

My family and friends were in the area and heard wonderful things about the bake house. Called to make sure if it was open and if needed a reservation. The person who answered replied that they are open 7 days a week and that there is plenty of room for us. But when I said we were 4 adults and 4 children the person changed abruptly and said they had no spaces and that we shouldn't go. I found this very unpleasant and unprofessional.Shame

We loved our delicious lunch. The Cullen skink was yummy, and the fishcakes outstanding. We are looking forward to enjoying the bread we purchased. Service was excellent. We will definitely return when we are in the area.
