The Bakery in Isle of Wight - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Excellent quality bread. Highly recommend focaccia and baguettes. Also basic pastries range pain au chocolat, croissant and palmier every day plus one suprise bake. Later there are often tarts which looks amazing. One tiny niggle the drinks are a little expensive especially a pot of tea at £4.20.

We were so disappointed with the service. Despite there being 3 members of staff, standing chatting and laughing, our food didn’t arrive. Eventually we asked if there was a problem and were met by totally blank looks. When I said what we had ordered ( and paid for) it was apparent the order had not gone through to the kitchen. When it eventually arrived it was fine, but we won’t return.

Lovely sandwiches with loads of salad and filling and nice big pot of tea. Friendly too. Recommend!

We ordered tea and 2 light lunches. Tea arrived promptly and we waited for the food to arrive. The place wasnt busy but after 20 minutes and other tables being served, we spoke to a young waitress who went to find out where our food was. She returned to tell us it was being prepared. Another 10/15 minutes passed and still no food. Went to the front counter to ask for refund as we couldn't stay any longer. No apology or explanation made and refund reluctantly given. Staff need to be trained in customer service. Appalling service. Will definitely not be back or recommending to others.

We visited the Bakery for breakfast after checking out of our caravan at Whitecliff Bay and were looking for somewhere for a late breakfast. The coffee was perfect ( and I’m a big coffee lover )- nice and strong and better than anywhere else I e had coffee in a long time! Myself and my husband had eggs Benedict which was delicious and our two young children had sausages , beans and toast which was also good but they tried ours and wanted more lol! I ordered a second coffee before we left and the kids took two cupcakes away which were delicious! The best cupcakes I e ever tasted! We wish we had discovered this place sooner as would definitely like to return! Another note- we loved the fact that the place is dog friendly and our cockapoo happily sat at a table at the back and chilled out in the sun! Nice garden too!

Disappointed after reading glowing reviews. Afternoon tea on the menu but after ordering at the counter found it was not available, and hadn’t been available for some time. Wouldn’t you place a sticker over it or omit it altogether rather than leave it? Staff were chatting together upon our entry, and needed a polite ‘excuse me’ to make them aware of our presence. Packs of butter placed next to jacket potatoes while the potato was filled, defeated the object. Salad with no dressing or even dressing offered. Only two people eating on a Sunday afternoon in the entire place, should have warned us something wasn’t right. Sadly we won’t be returning.

Lovely coffee, great pastries. Made a pastry for us specially when we asked! Staff only too happy to help

Great Danish pastries, we arrived just before closing so not a huge selection left but I'm sure it's great early in the day.

This is a proper bakery - all breads, cakes and pastries made on the premises for you to enjoy. Their savoury pastries are excellent, the cakes perfection and I love their bread pudding. The bakery also has a lovely tea room for your lunch, also made to perfection.

Popped in with my nephew for a coffee and saw that they had a lovely selection of new products and picked the vegetable curry slice…it was beautiful not a soggy bottom in sight.Great addition to the menu,hopefully more vegetarian products will follow

Just got to say the Bread from here is absolutely amazing. You will be amazed at how tasty it is! Fresh and the best ive had in ages

Lovely fresh baked goods - plus you can sit in and eat lunches, sandwiches etc . Great service - food was freshly prepared to order. Portions were very generous and a great kids menu. Plus outside area to the back. Would definitely visit again.

Stopped for a bite of lunch. Amazed at the choice of freshly cooked food. So much we couldn't finish it all! The breads and cakes looked lovely and very tempting. Would definitely reccomend. Service was great too!

We visited today as a party of 4 - was the most amazing food!! Staff were absolutely lovely and very very welcoming - definitely will be going back again! Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a wonderful spot for lunch. We also had some cakes to take home, and they went down an absolute treat!

Went with the family, food was amazing, great portion size, tasted perfect. Very friendly staff. Would highly recommend and defo visit again.

We always pop into the bakery at Bembridge for a morning breakfast when we’re down on the island, and the breakfasts never fail to disappoint us! The team are hospitable and friendly, who always serve great food and cakes! A real bonus is that it is dog friendly, too!

What an amazing little venue for breakfast. The quality of the ingredients is excellent. And it’s all such good value. The Bakery is also busy with passing trade for all sorts of baked goods. What a find!

Good selection of tastey bakery goods, we bought things for a picnic we then took down to the sea front to watch the ships on the Solent.

Went in poached eggs on toast and a cuppa.Great service,staff very friendly and helpful.Will definitely be coming again

We at last had family to stay for the first time last weekend, despite the terrible weather we had a drive around the island, calling in at Bembridge, one of our favourite places. On this terrible rainy day we of course intended to call in...

Having sailed to the Isle of Wight, we then walked in the rain to the bakers which is usually very good. We did find a seat in the garden under an umbrella, much to the consternation of the staff, as it was still raining. A visit to the bakers is usually a high spot of our visit to Bembridge - but not this time. One of the cups wasn't clean (a tea stain inside the cup), the tea spoons were stained, and the big red tea pot had a chipped spout. Not really ideal. The cakes were better, but the 'chocolate' cake my husband had was dry and bland. The coffee and walnut sponge was however delicious. Admittedly it was the end of the day, but unclean cutlery and crockery should be spotless at any time. Not sure whether they are getting complacent, or whether standards are really slipping. We should have complained, but staff were few and far between. Not sure that we will return.

Called in for a late lunch as there were few other options available and, unusually, I'd not checked it out before on TA. There were strict controls on people entering the premises in view of the limited space, even if it meant standing out in the rain, so from a Covid perspective that's good. I ordered a coronation chicken sandwich which was exemplary (a good balance between the filling and the bread) and my wife had beans on toast (not one of the 57 varieties but perfectly acceptable). We had a coffee and [sadly] a rather luke warm hot chocolate (given that I'd expressly asked for it hot) and a couple of cakes to take away which were generously sized and excellent value.

We visited yesterday and were impressed by the quality of the breakfast and the speed with which it was served. The cafe also had the best social distancing measures that we saw on the Island. The breakfast was freshly ccoked and the portions were generous. We would strongly recommend/

I can not praise the staff enough, how friendly, helpful, hard working and accommodating they have always been. This had been a regular stop for me over the years and an absolute little god-send because they have remained open for bread and take away coffee etc during the lockdown.... essential in the village. Had an old favorite, cheese on toast, comes with salad garnish and tortilla chips. Excellent as always... had a decaf latte followed by a mocha.... which was simply the best... thank you for being here and as long as you are I will be too.

Have been here several times and always loved the place. This time some of the shine had worn off for me. They have taken out some tables, fair enough in these troubled times and it was warm enough to sit outside (just) then they forgot about us for quite a while. The instructions were quite clear about staff coming to us to take an order which would have been fine if they had not forgotten about us.When we were eventually noticed, the young girl was polite and efficient enough but sitting in the patio area with the chefs popping out when they weren't busy just created the wrong impression for me.The food when it arrived was OK, the one hash brown was crunchy enough to use for skimming stones and some bits warmer than others.It has always been our automatic go to for breakfast in Bembridge but now I'm not so sure.

We always stop here for lunch when we’re in Bembridge. It’s a busy little place with lovely, freshly made bread, cakes and savoury pastries. They also have a full lunch menu available. The prices are extremely reasonable. The staff are all very friendly and the cafe welcomes dogs too which is great for us. They made a real fuss of our dog who loved the attention and the treats. I wish other cafe/bakeries on the island had delicious food of such good quality and were as welcoming as this one!

Great food, amazing salads. fab quiches good vegetarian choice. This bakery is always busy which is a good sign..

loveley bread and cakes brought some to take home with us staff very nice too local to all villagers walking distance from hotel

We have enjoyed tea and cakes and even lunch here on many occasions. Lovely loose tea in tea pots as it should be.... however unfortunately on our last (and will be our final visit) I was shocked at how the bakery disposed of unsold goods at 3pm (ish) on a Saturday as they are closed Sunday’s. The older dark haired lady started to load up a tray for window display of goods which were reduced for quick sale.... and what couldn’t be fitted on the tray she simply scraped into a black bin liner ... this was all in front of a full cafe! Buns, sausage rolls, slices of cake, quiche! Wow... in a country where we have families who regularly visit food banks and food poverty affecting many across the country how/why would they do this? My husband took photos (which I haven’t added here as we’ll wait for a response) as we were just so shocked. There are so many options which would’ve been better than throwing away. 1. Ring a local food bank and they’ll come and collect whatever is left each week.2. Offer to your cafe full of customers (who have chosen to spend their hard earned money in your establishment)3. Ask a local care home to collect for residents on Saturday (they were good to be sold a few minutes before) so good enough for eating later on Saturday 4. Leave outside for local residents passing byBUT there is no excuse for food waste on this scale! Act now as this is happening on this island, food poverty is real. Food has always been lovely until this point... but now a very tarnished view.

Super food, A good variety on the menu. Friendly service, a lovely place to be. Good value. It was busy but we did not have to wait overlong.

Every time we come to the Isle of Wight (usually 3 times a year) we always come to the bakery cafe for tea cakes & pastries & sometimes cooked breakfast too!They do fantastic cakes that are very good value & fresh bread too of course & it’s great that you can take your dog’s into the cafe with you to eat too!Thankfully so many cafes & pubs on the island let you sit down inside to eat with your dog’s & that’s absolutely fantastic!This time we choose to sit outside with our dogs as even though it was October it was warm and sunny ☀️ although we have been many times before & sat inside to eat with our dog’s no problem!

Out on my bike and needed a coffee and cake stop and never visited The Bakery before. Huge choice from full English breakfast, savories and cake. I chose a Latte and a slice of Victoria Sandwich. Order brought to your table, both latte and cake were excellent. Staff very friendly and chatty. Will definitely visit again when out on my bike

We walked by on our walk around the village and called in for coffee as we noticed they were selling off their cakes cheap. It was 3.30 and we immediately got one of those looks of disappointment from an older lady working there. I asked if they were open still, (it said open till 4 on the door), she gave another look of disappointment and said a long drawn out “well, ummm no, just for sales from the window”. We went out to look in the window and the door was locked behind us! I tried the door just in case but yes, we were locked out. Oh well, another place not to visit again.

The Bakery is located on High Street just down from Bramble and Berry store. There is a huge variety of cakes,scones, desserts, sandwiches (hot or cold) and there is a pizza of the day. The bathroom is located beside the patio so you may have to go outside to get to the washroom if you are eating in the restaurant.

Came with friends and had teas, coffees and cakes - all delicious and served by friendly staff. Menu looked varied - would definitely return.

The Bakery is a lovely traditional bakery, with the emphasis on home cooking. We arrived on a Saturday morning not long after it opened and sat inside, it's fairly cosy but the tables aren't crammed in. There's also outside seating if you prefer eating al fresco. You place your order at the till (cash only I think) then there's waitress service to bring your order to your table.

I would like to give the Bakery three A’s. One for an excellent pasty, a second one for a lovely Eccles cake and thirdly for a fantastic pot of leaf tea.

A delightful little cafe in Bembridge that we happened across purely by chance having failed to find the beach, thanks to the satnav...

A delightful quirky cafe that suited our relaxed day out. It wasn't pretending to be a fast food outlet so we weren't concerned that the food took a little while to arrive. Generous portions, presented beautifully, excellent value and tasted wonderful (Croque Madame and Eggs Florentine). Loved the mismatched crockery.

Great bread and top pasties. I can't understand why the shelves are full and staff behind the counter, the lights are on but the sign says 'Closed' This is a holiday village and people want to eat before 9,00am! The Co-Op, while no where near on quality is open 7am to 11pm with warm fresh bread. Come on chaps. The season is small and you need to make money. Take it from us when you can.

Ordered lunch plus coffee and cake. Lunch arrived approx 30 mins after the coffee and cake. Although the food was enjoyable, the long wait spoiled the meal.

What a lovely little place. Wish the staff were a little more friendly. They have a lovely choice of cakes and treats. Lovely sausage rolls but awful chocolate brownies. Bought some for dessert to eat at home and was disappointed.

nice food, nice people, what more do you want. great choice of hot and cold and nice ice cream had a coronation chicken sandwich well worth it

Been many times, went yesterday and had a very large but lovely croque monsiuer. Great little Bakery/Tea Room/Cake shop. Excellent sarndwiches. Love it.

The coconut macaroons are very gooey and gorgeous. And their ice cream in superb. I was told that everything is baked on site. A good old fashioned bakery.

Have seen the ads on the ferry a few times so thought that we would give it a try

Have been here twice now, first time not a brilliant experience so thought we would try again. The older lady that served us was obviously in a bad mood the way she was huffing and puffing. Coffee and cake was passable but when going out you don't want to hear management moaning to the young staff about other customers and staff members.

Fresh delicious bread, excellent Barista coffee and friendly service at a reasonable price, what more do you want.

My partner a came here today. Looked really inviting from the window with lovely cakes.

Been here several times. The cakes are splendid especially the Bembridge Bun packed full of glace cherries. Love the quiche. Good service, friendly staff, nice ambience, dog and children friendly. Is it expensive...not for the quality you get. The sausage rolls are good but the best in Bembridge are those sold by the butchers up the right. Well worth a visit.

Endroit sympathique et bon accueil. Tout est fait maison et il ne reste rien en fin d’après-midi Fermé le dimanche.

Called by for Coffee, and whilst it was 'okay' it really wasn't anything to praise about, and in fact had lesser taste than some other venues in the village.

Popped in for tea and tea cake for 2, nearly fell over when told it was £8-50!.

Have been to the bakery a couple of times this week for a takeaway coffee which was lovely. I also got a sausage roll for my husband which he loved and today we had the leek and Brie quiche for takeaway which tasted amazing! Can highly recommend

I popped in today and found a bakery counter full of fresh baked goods. I had a delicious bacon, cheese and tomato pastry which was heated and brought to me in minutes, I found the staff very friendly and extremely accommodating about my large dog. I would visit again.

A great find following walk on beach. Friendly staff lovely pot of tea an super egg mayonnaise sandwich and scrumptious cake. Filled the spot well before walking back to the windmill.

Went here for lunch, very disappointing after seeing it advertised on the tv on the ferry, The cheese on toast was like chewing cardboard and quite tasteless, the sausage bap was ok, but the bap was so cold it must have come out of the freezer. Coffee ok but nothing special

I have visited The Bakery on three separate occasions and on each occasion I have experienced extremely poor customer service and even rudeness.

Just had a spot of lunch, sausage rolls, cake and a brew. Idea for that lunchtime snack. Good choice and freshly made to order sandwiches and rolls.

This bakery/coffee shop has loads of fresh offerings. You can pick up your fresh bread for the day or pop in to see the sweet and savory options available. Their menu is varied and well priced. It’s very plain inside but a warm reprieve from the outside. It’s a very busy spot for the locals which to me is a sure sign of quality. I’d describe the staff as shy rather than rude, these women know how to bake and cook (it is a bakery after all). If you’re looking for gregarious staff go somewhere else. I’d definitely come back here when visiting IoW.

What can I say friendly ,and the food is amazing ,had the best eggs royal that I have ever tasted, thank you ,nice fresh looking food ,and love the cups and saucers and more so they aren’t a matching set ,makes all the better brings back memories of visiting auntie for lovely teas on a summers day ,so very English

Ordered milkshakes which were warm, watery and curdled and tasted disgusting. Took one back and I asked to change it for a can of drink. No apology, just a shrug our shoulders type of response. Food was okay, service was slow. Cakes looked lovely but didn't try these.

As always the food and drink are lovely and very reasonably priced. Unfortunately the "manageress" is quite rude to staff members in front of the customers. The second time we have heard this.

I love your comments but I have to correct you - we never use tinned mushrooms - they are delivered fresh daily and I cook them off in salted butter on the hob, they are then kept in hot storage (bain marie) and when ordered cooked off on our griddle! ! Tinned mushrooms !!! Unheard of here I assure you !!!

My buddy Rob and I meet up for breakfast every couple of months for a 'put the world to rights' catch up and when he suggested we go to Bembridge, I readily agreed. It was only later that I started to wonder where we would be going, as I couldn't think of anywhere that does brekkies. We parked near to Woodford & Son the local butchers and walked the short distance to - The Bakery.

Only popped in to get a cake for our tea later on and timed it right, it was near closing time and the cakes had been reduced, bargain for us, all cakes £1.00 can't go wrong and we didn't.

This was recommended by a local that we asked for somewhere to go for breakfast. It is an amazing bakery and cafe with a garden. The atmosphere was great and the staff very friendly and helpful. They bake wonderful bread and use it in the cafe. The cooked breakfast was really lovely and the real bread was a real bonus. We didn't have time to go again but I would happily recommend it.

A lovely quaint English Tea Room with a small garden for sunny days. Delicious bakery food to eat in or take away. Very generous portions, very reasonable prices and a lovely jolly waitress. Will definitely return on our next visit to Bembridge.

This is a lovely quintessential English bakery and tea room. Completely dog friendly, which is a huge plus for us.

All delicious, freshly baked on premises. An absolute delight if you are not dieting! Tables outside at front and in pretty garden at back. Beware wasps...which is only to be expected with all those lovely sugary treats.

Great service, tasty food, good value. Our children found the real tea leaves in the pot very amusing.

We called in whilst my boyfriend was getting a hair cut so had half hour to kill. We sat outside on a lovely little table and I went in to place an order. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The choice of cakes and savouries were fabulous. My son had the special bbq sausage pizza it was huge and well worth the the few quid. Me and my daughters had sausage rolls which are homemade and amazing!!!! Then we all had ice creams and coffee. The coffee was really good and overall we had a great dinner time here at the bakery would definitely revisit!!

We didn't stay in to eat here - although the cafe looked lovely - but had the most divine takeway cakes to eat on a day trip out. I particularly recommend the apple strudel!!

I often pop into the bakery for some lunch,and also take home some of their lovely bread or cakes.

Fresh and Fun selection of sweet & savoury goodies & bread . Really nice seating area for a quick coffee &’cake or lunch . Lots of homemade delights .

I cycled in to Bembridge today and saw this cafe with doors open and tables outside. I asked for a coffee and was served by a pleasant young girl. I sat outside and waited for my coffee which the girl said she’d bring to me. All was well until who I assume was the boss turned up with a face like thunder . Unbeknown to me I must have turned up close to closing time as the boss started having a go at the young girl for serving me. I heard her say in a huff “ So I cant even bring the tables in” , “did you tell her it was a minimum £2.50 on a card”, “just serve her the coffee” which was then brought out a few seconds later by the young girl. The boss made some other mutterings which I couldn’t quite make out but from the tone weren’t pleasant. The boss then slammed the door shut next to where I was sitting, slammed the bolt across and said to the girl “ I’ll shut this so we don’t get any more”. Any more what may I ask?! This woman clearly doesn’t like customers and made no secret of the fact that she didn’t want me there. I drank my coffee quick so I could leave and needless to say I won’t be taking my custom there again. I’ll do her a favour and just not go there again for fear of upsetting her and I suggest everyone else does the same. She doesn’t want any more of ‘us’ ( customers) so make her happy and AVOID this place.

We popped in for coffe, stayed for lunch; just kept ordering.

Good hearty breakfast at a reasonable price, (£6.50 including tea/coffee and toast). Friendly staff, good service and good quality hot food. Perfect.

The first day this year for a genuine sunny, sit out lunch and where better than The Bakery. Out in the back garden, sandwiches and a plowman’s with excellent cheese and superb in house bread. Welcoming and efficient staff. An experience that added to a very good day.

Popped in for elevenses today for a cake, and oh wow was ordering a tough decision! A whole variety of baked goods on display, of which I chose the lemon and blueberry cake; accompanied with a raspberry milkshake. The cake was beautifully baked, moist and light with a generous helping of blueberries throughout the sponge and a tangy tasty lemon glaze on top. Will definitely be visiting again to try more scrumptious treats!

I often call in either for a hot drink a slice of cake or something cooked, and it has never disappointed. The variety of cakes, rolls and bread is great too.

I just love The Bakery in Bembridge, you walk in get a 'hello' you leave you get a 'goodbye' these small manners cost nothing and make all the difference. The ladies all work so hard in here to make everyone's visit satisfactory & comfortable. The menu is just fabulous, the prices are spot on (even with the little price increase) the Tea is Tea Leaves, they always have the best selection of treats which even during winter I'm so glad they've kept up, some places do skeleton selections and it lets a place down for regulars.

So many cakes to choose from! Eventually decided on blueberry and lemon which was so light! My sister had a bembridge bun which was packed full of cherries and candied peel. All washed down with a pot of tea with real tea leaves. They do lovely lunches which are all very reasonably priced. Friendly staff

Lovely staff and very reasonably priced - dogs allowed too! There were so many different homemade cakes on offer, it was tempting to try a different one each day but I managed to control myself and sampled just the coffee and walnut cake and cream scone - delicious!

Had a lovely lunch soup crusty bread, my friend had a sandwich and cake. Lovely old fashioned teapot and cups. Lovely and clean, and Very good service.

We were in Bembridge and wanted a light lunch. We saw this bakery and wow, we loved it. Very clean, friendly helpful staff, lots of choice for lunch, sandwiches, filled jacket potatoes, among many other, and lots of delicious looking cakes.

My grandson and I discovered the bakery early in our visit to Nodes Point. There is seating but as we had a dog with us, we didn't stop. There is a good range of savoury and sweet pastries and cakes. The only trouble is that we kept wanting to go back. We will go there again when we return to the island next Autumn.

Went for breakfast on our recent visit. Nice place, friendly efficient service, good choice on the menu and good portion sizes. Very enjoyable

Called in late on a Saturday and had a couple of hand-made sandwiches and a pot of tea each.
