The Cornish Bakery in New Forest

Was a very wholesome place, yummy brownies and delicious coffee. The people were very welcoming would definitely recommend!!

Nice looking selection but a bit cold and over hardened pastry. Coffee rather strong- and I like my coffee- so big downside, service slow, though patient with my aging mum. Coffee order unclear (which was the skimmed milk?). Disappointed and better options in the stretch!

Excellent but let down by dogs sat on owners laps eating food from table. How can you possibly advertise a 5 star hygiene rating when you allow this to happen ?

Was greates as soon as I walked in by Sarah, who I believe was the manager. She was really upbeat and friendly. Service was good and the cakes I got were good value for money and very fresh. A good display and all looked amazing

I was in lymington shopping and decided to pop in and have a bite to eat ,very friendly staff ,the food was excellent will definitely be going back

This is my second visit to the Cornish Bakery in Lymington and I'm happy to say that the experience was just as good as the first! Made the point of a second review due to the consistent experience. I felt it would prove useful for people that are genuinely weighing up where to stop off to in Lymington High street. I would advise looking back to my first review in October if you want more of a breakdown of the venue and service. I'm not too local, but was my intention to trying again if nearby. This visit was actually because I recommended it as a place of catching up with a friend. No food this time (definitely want to try more pasty varieties though), but came in for the coffee and social element. The coffee is just fantastic! Can't pin point why; could be the training and/or type of coffee, but it's the full, smooth and creamy type that you just can't replicate at home with the multiple fancy expensive machines you buy on black Friday, ha ha. Honestly, give it a try it. We sat on a table opposite the till in the main open area. It's a light and open space, yet the tables are set out and give you enough of your own personal space that it feels like a nice comforting area for yourselves too. We both had a nice catch up at our pace. Staff were warm and friendly, and had a little bit of banter with a blond hair lady called Sarah whilst being served. Overall, the place is good for a social, work, solo relax and (see previous review) a great place to get some lunch as the savouries are great quality. Thanks Lymington team!

Obviously a very popular place as it was busy at lunch time so we found it difficult to find seats. Lovely range of food available (though quite a bit was low on stock by the time we went to order - guessing due to how busy it was). Pastries were lovely and moist. Sweet treats were indulgent. Only thing was that they were quite big! One would happily feed two people!

The coffee shop is located in the lower section of the town, on the hilly section of town adjacent to the quay. The shop is quite recent and has been the site of several failed stores of recent years. On entering we decided to have coffee and a pastie and it was lunchtime. On handing the person serving me the payment he then proudly announced the outlet was CARD ONLY not accepting any cash and pointed to a small sign of 15x15cm on the servery counter. I was horrified, and my friend then offered to pay with her card.I can now say I will never set foot in this shop again, no matter how good of inviting your goods are.

Great pastries and service, we will definitely be returning to enjoy more. The pasties as good as at home in Cornwall. Thoroughly recommend.

Lovely shop in a great location. Staff and manager were very friendly. The sausage rolls and pasties i bought were very nice, i will be a regular from now on.

Visited recently, dogs welcome and excellent coffee and cakes were delicious. Would definitely recommend and return

We recently returned for a second visit and we were just as impressed last time. We were served by the manager, Sarah who couldn’t have been more helpful. Absolutely amazing coffee and cakes. Can’t wait to go back.

Amazing environment very kind friendly and inviting. So accommodating of children. Great look go above and beyond for the customers Accommodating of additional needs. Steps into and to toilet just to be aware of. Would highly recommend going will be returning. Great prices and fantastic quality.

Had a lovely coffee today at lymington cornish bakery. Jack was a pleasure to be served by. He is friendly, very attentive and provides a 5 star service . His customer service is second to none and sets a high standard for all to follow. You should be proud to have such a great employee working for you. I cannot of asked for better service. Thankyou Jack for a delicious coffee with amazing artwork. I will be back!

The staff and manager were very friendly. Lovely food, absolutely loved the sausage rolls. Lovely location

Popped in the morning and had a cheese and bacon croissant and was pleasantly supposed with how yummy it was! Coffee was also delicious, the best way to start the day!

Best spot in Lymington for a coffee and a snack! The staff were wonderful and very accommodating. On other occasions I've had their pasties of which there is a huge (and delicious) variety on offer. Can't imagine going a need to go anywhere else.

This is a really nice, relaxing coffee shop with fantastic pasties and friendly staff! I'll visit again and again!

Loveliest staff in town! Popped in for a quick lunch - chose a tasty pasty and a nice coffee and a Danish. Had to write my first ever review just because I was so impressed by how kind, friendly and enthusiastic the two ladies working...

Excellent, authentic pasties. Not the cheapest, but real quality. Staff were friendly. Pasties were freshly cooked. We asked for cold ones, to heat at home and were supplied

Cherry and Almond croissants are a new addiction of mine, great coffee made with a friendly face makes it an enjoyable place to visit! Am definitely becoming a regular.

After an appalling 'welcome' at the Buttery, Brockenhurst (I quietly walked out without ordering), the Cornish Bakery was a breath of fresh air. The staff were friendly, the flat white was strong as requested and the coffee pastry made with almonds was an absolute delight....

We popped into Lymington yesterday and stopped in the Cornish Bakery for a coffee and some cake. Wow the coffee was the best I’ve ever had. We will definitely be returning soon. Thank you to sarah for the great service. 😁

Just to say how impressed I was with the Cornish bakery! I’m a bit fussy over my coffee but a lovely lady the tastiest cappuccino I’ve had for a long while. The pastel de mats I had was fresh and tasty- best I have had...

Great spot, my server Jack was very attentive and accommodating. Lovely venue and very reasonably priced.

Went in yesterday to just stop off for a lovely coffee, and got served by jack. Great guy and a general great vibe. If i return to lymington, i’ll definitely return to this place!

Visited this lovely cafe yesterday, as I really fancied a pasty, and let me tell you the traditional Cornish pasty hit the spot. I accompanied it with a tea and it was lovely , the young man Jack who served me was very welcoming and...

Second time visiting this cafe / bakery had a coffee & a croissant both were delicious! Staff were friendly as always will definitely be returning again.

Great little place in the heart of Lymington high street. Excellent coffee! Definitely the best coffee I’ve had in a long time 🙂

Nice little spot in the high street. Quite popular, so service a little slow, but standard of coffees and pastries/cakes were delightful, so would make me go again. You have to stand in a queue to order the food/drinks. Not table service. Plenty of tables...

Visiting lymington for a short break and decided to have coffee and cake at this lovely place. The almond brownie was perfectly moist and the carrot cake to die for. Coffees were better than expected. Best of all was the service. Sarah Scott was a...

Visited Lymington one day and I liked the look of this place compared to other places on the high street, so I popped in for lunch not expecting the world. What a pleasant surprise! The cafe/bakery was very tidy and up together, with a nice friendly vibe. Every staff member I spoke to was very welcoming and accommodating, and the food was really really nice. I liked the chicken tikka pasty in particular! Such a positive experience, which I feel is getting rare these days. However, I'm pleased to say I know exactly where I'm going to eat next time I'm in Lymington! Thank you Cornish Bakery! 5/5

Recently visited the bakery for a weekend family treat, the bakery had such a good variety of choice to suit everyone even little taste buds. With plenty of choice for seats we decided to sit slightly out of the way so little one didn’t disturb anyone else’s peace, the bakery was clean and tidy and very well presented. The lovely lad Fay who made the most excellent coffee was so polite and helpful nothing was to big of an ask and the coffee was one of the best I have ever had. Will definitely make this a more regular stop.

We visited recently whilst shopping in Lymington and have to say it’s probably the best coffee we’ve had! The pastries were amazing too. We couldn’t fault the service and everything was spotlessly clean. We will definitely visit again soon!

I would like to thank all your staff especially Sarah for their kind and thoughtful service last Wednesday 11 Oct. The coffee and cakes were excellent.

This is a great place. Lovely coffee and pastries to die for. Also have nice sandwiches. Staff friendly too. Oh and when it’s unbearably hot outside they have air con. We always visit every time we are in the area. Thoroughly recommend.

I'm not a review person, but after the great experience I had at The Cornish Bakery in Lymington, I felt they were definitely deserving of my time to set up a TripAdvisor to give a positive review. My first time visiting, and from walking straight...

This is a great spot for a coffee and a catch up with friends. The food was excellent and the staff were equally brilliant. Will definitely be returning!

Lovely coffee shop in Lymington great for doing some work in and very friendly/accommodating staff! Great iced latte

Lovely little bakery with great coffee and friendly staff, would definitely recommend and will be visiting again soon.

I come in when visiting from the isle of wight and always have great coffee , highly recommend and beautiful croissants too

Really nice cafe. Visited other Cornish Bakery places in Cornwall so knew what to expect. This is a particularly good one as it feels spacious inside and the tables aren't crammed in. It does mean you may have to wait to sit at very busy...

Cornish bakery is our go to coffee spot in Lymington nearly always before lunch and several times a week. Just lately though it seems to have gone down hill. Today for example no skimmed milk , again, only this time no semi skimmed either! Also...

This cafe seemed the ideal pit-stop during a quick sortie into Lymington on a rainy Saturday. Nice selection of pasties and cakes on display. Didn't realise until I sat down that my cheese and bacon croissant hadn't been warmed but it would have been, I'm...

Breakfast at this coffee shop was so refreshing in a time of poor service/ quality chains. Attentive table service, great food (we had the filled croissants) and 5* cleanliness. Our waitress was concerned with our enjoyment- hot milk, the unprompted offer of additional milk and...

Fantastic coffee shop. There seems to have been a change in staff recently, which has improved the cafe even more. The service is much quicker and more efficient. The food and coffee are both lovely and the tables by the window are great for people...

Great place nice food nice environment and great coffee! Especially loved the large traditional and a very nice iced coffee! Lovely staff especially Ashley :)

Empty counter draws you in, but beware the slow and pedantic service. It’s good food and coffee but you may die of starvation Toilets smelly and dirty.

Lovely scones, fruit and plain. Excellent oatmilk hot chocolate. Well brewed tea. Helpful and friendly staff. Dog friendly.

food all looked great, but cherry croissant was the best ever and the custard one, looked new but there is also another pasty shop next door.

Fantastic coffee silky smooth hot chocolate yummy cakes especialy scones friendly staff.lovely clean place.

On seeing the dog friendly sign in the window we went in. Very friendly and top quality food . Highly recommended! Would go again.

We had a coffee at Cornwall Bakery twice whilst staying in Lymington and each time, the café was virtually full- always a good sign. We eventually did find a table and ordered- the coffee was excellent although the cakes didn’t seem a little overpriced. We’d...

Went in for coffee, ended up having a whole lunch! The lady made some beautiful coffee and the toasties were so good. The cornish pudding is to die for!

Arrived tired and hungry as the cafe was closing but met with a warm welcome and an excellent supply of delicious cakes and pastries to fuel us on our cycle back to Salisbury. Thank you - you saved our bacon!

Best coffee in locality. Fruit scones bakes in store are the best, except for my wife's. Specialist corninsh pastry store. Lovely people. I always enjoy coming here.

Called in this morning to try out this bakery for coffee and cakes to be very disappointed with the cup size served with a Cappuccino. This is the smallest cup of cappuccino I have had in a cafe in a long time and clearly was...

On the positive side, very clean, spacious and well mannered staff. The coffee very disappointing, took a very long time to make, especially as the cafe was not busy and when it came it was Luke warm and all froth, literally three sips and it...

Visited 16/2/23 Ordered Hot Choclate/Bacon Turnover/2 Belem pastries The Turnover was ok The Belems were cold (meant to be served warm) AND well the Hot chocolate was tasteless Warmed up milk with chocolate sprinkled on the top does not count as a Hot chocolate-( I...

We found this lovely cafe, very friendly service. Tasty coffee and the cheese straws and pasties were amazing

Very nice cafe / bakery. Lovely decor and friendly staff. Cake and sandwich offering were good, may seem slightly pricey but definitely worth it as well as lovely coffee to match. Will be coming back wnd recommending.

Coffee is great. We Love the croissants and sausage rolls and a big shout out to Charlotte - always happy and helpful ! Check it out.

Friendly staff, yummy cakes, a range of beverages; what more do you want? We visited on Boxing day, and it was really busy, but nothing phased the staff. A great place to stop for a snack or lunch.

Popped in for a lovely pasty and a hot latte Good looking place Sea Side theame Lots of space Free WiFi too Will be back

We dropped in for coffee and cake (cinnamon bun and a cornish pudding) which was yummy. Unfortunately all the tables had not been cleared/cleaned and we and other customers had to move the used cups /plates out of the way.

We had a friendly 'Hello' from Charlotte as we entered the shop. Ordering tea and scones after we fould our table in this light and airy establishment we sat down to enjoy the best scones we have come across. Many dishes are made in store...

Visited earlier in the week (Wednesday) with a couple of friends in the early morning. Coffee was great, pastries were delicious, and the young blonde and brunette girls working were so kind and cheerful, and clearly seemed to enjoy themselves. Definitely worth a revisit!

Well I once visited this bakery a few months ago and I was impressed with it staff was very helpful, as a family we was out enjoying a visit to the new forest and u decided to visit the bakery again with the family wow...

What a lovely friendly place this is. The food is great - cheese scone is to die for - and particularly Alison and Charlotte were so nice and helpful. Of all the coffee and cake places in Lymington- and there are many - this is...

I recently visited this lovely cafe and had very good and efficient service from Charlotte. It was very enjoyable. Thank you, from Inge

Great friendly family run bakery. Always come here when in lymington! Lovely food and clean and welcoming decor. Highly recommend

Stopped on a Sunday morning for a late breakfast/brunch. Enjoyed what appeared to be bespoke locally produced pastries and good coffee

Lovely food and great staff. Alison served our drinks and was very friendly. Best pasty I’ve eaten in a long time. Definitely recommended.

Great food - pasties and coffee made by Alison very friendly staff - free Wi-Fi very clean and hospitable. Would recommend

We were served by Charlotte who was very friendly & efficient. She made a delicious pot of tea for 4 and we had some yummy food including sausage roll, pasty and croissant plus their very own homemade Cornish pudding. A delightful visit - thanks to...

A perfect Flat White coffee made by Charlotte, not many people get it right but she did. Nice cheese scones and Portuguese custard tarts. A lovely break on our day out.

The scones and pasties delicious. The atmosphere great and very friendly staff. Very clean and just an all round pleasant experience. Chatted with Charlotte who served our coffees shaping a lovely heart on each. I am currently holidaying with three members of my family near...

A long overdue meet up with my cousin, we popped into the Cornish bakery for a coffee. Cakes, pasties and pastries all beautifully displayed. Everything looked freshly baked. We were served by a very friendly gentleman with a great sense of humour. We throughly enjoyed...

We popped in for a quick lunch as my husband really fancied a Cornish pasty! It was very busy but the staff, although working under duress, were efficient and didn’t keep us waiting for any more than was necessary. We both had a traditional pasty...

Wonderful atmosphere and decor, had flat white coffees with friends. Would definitely recommend polenta and cinnamon rolls. Excellent staff too.

I came across a nice bakery ,I was welcome in and I had a great chat with one of the staff named Alison ,Alison was very helpful and explained to me what and how things are done and what was in the food I will...

Popped in for breakfast whilst on holiday - a fantastic range of savoury and sweet pastries - we sampled a wide selection!!! All very tasty and fresh with great coffee (made by the fab Lily!) - served by friendly staff. Perfect!!

First time visitor to this bakery and will definitely be back. Great selection of cakes, pastries and light lunches, immaculately clean and staff really friendly and efficient. Lily makes a fabulous latte. All this and great value for money.

We came here for breakfast on a Monday and were very happy with our choice! Delicious pastries (especially the bacon and cheese turnover!) and lovely coffee. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Definitely recommended!

Really well-made, delicious oat latte coffees. Absolutely delicious Apple, Rhubarb and Custard pastie. Overall a wonderful refuelling opportunity at our favourite chain of coffee shops.

Takeaway lunch was delicious. Pasties, sausage rolls, pastries and drinks. All tasty. Very friendly service.

The perfect stop for a coffee and a Portuguese tart! The scones are made and baked daily and you can see Allison hard at work behind the glass!

I didn't realise until I went to pay that they dont take cash. I should have walked out then. The cappucino was the smallest I have ever seen. Its described as 8oz on the bill. Tasteless pasty. The member of staff to whom I mentioned...

We were looking for a nice coffee shop for a drink a toilet for our young daughter. Nearly stopped in the usual costa or Nero but so glad we came back here. Had a cappuccino, latte and baby chino plus 2 cakes which came to...

Coffee served was really good and we had a scone which was good as well. The shop was rather under staffed but the manager Gary(i think) was doing the work of 3 people and was still being both friendly and efficient. I hope that the...

Such a slow service and not particularly busy. Music rather loud where we sat and difficult to hear when order was called. But our main complaint is that they won't accept cash!! Absolutely no reason for this, it's legal tender and proven not to be...

Two weeks ago we visited this delightful cafe in Lymington High Street after our walk. We've visited here many times recently but the coffee was simply awful on this occasion. The reason was the owner was training a young boy and concentration was lacking on...
