The Cornish Bakery in Taunton Deane - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Weather wasn’t great and services were busy and as there was no queue I thought I’d quickly grab a snack from the food cart outside. Waited about a minute before staff member acknowledged me. He then said I’ll be two minutes. Four minutes later after several other customers had queued and then left I decided to join them and head somewhere else. In his defence he needs as working alone. But preparing a coffee (I presume for himself as no one else was waiting when I arrived) and ignoring customers isn’t great. Would love to give a review of the food and drink but unfortunately I didn’t get the opportunity to purchase any.

We were travelling to Cornwall and decided to stop off at these services for a pasty to have for our dinner. We arrived in the afternoon to find the place boarded up. This was the same at Bridgewater. We were disappointed to say the least.

Stopped at Taunton Dean northbound this morning hubby wanted a Cornish pastie, knew I wouldn’t get a Gingsters in the service, saw the Cornish Bakery outside, so decided to purchase him one from there. Also had a medium one myself. Well what can I say about them they were lovely and hot, very well filled and to our personal taste lovely and peppery. I also had a white chocolate and raspberry bakewell, delicious. Rarely stop at these services as they are too close from my daughters in Exeter to need to use them, but this morning we had left from Cornwall. We will definitely be calling here again just for the pasties. Hubby said his was far better than the one he had bought in Padstow on Tuesday, and also considerably cheaper. If you like pasties definitely the place to buy them from.

Both the Pasty and coffee I bought were some of the best I've had. Served with a smile even though she was obviously very busy. Really a testament to the business.

On way back from hols we purchased a cheese and onion pasty which was lovely and Portuguese Egg Tart and latte coffee's. Staff were friendly even though it was really busy.
