The Cornish Bakery in York

Despite me popping in 15 minutes before dining closed, Lottie was incredibly lovely and let me sit down to enjoy my croissant and Yorkshire tea. Not only was there a sweet little puppy in the dining area as well, the whole staff seemed very calm and friendly, and it made the atmosphere really enjoyable while I enjoyed my tea and a good book! If I'm ever back in York I will definitely be popping by again!

What can I say! As soon as I walked in Lottie immediately remembered us from our last trip and even what we ordered the last time we were there, Lottie is a true credit to your company and would love to see her recognised for her dedication to her job and the customer service being above and beyond, we will 100% be back again to have breakfast as my grandchildren requested that’s where we went. Thank you Lottie for all your hard work, you can truly see she loves her job which in today’s age you don’t get to see that very often. We look forward to visiting you again soon 😀

i was severed by lottie and she was really friendly, i don’t usually like doing things like this by myself but i felt comfortable doing it here, my coffee was really nice and so was my cheese scone and just generally a nice place to be, thanks guys 😁 x

Excellent service and food was excellent. Lottie was extremely helpful and welcoming. Especially enjoyed the sandwich.

We popped in for a coffee and some cakes and we were not disappointed! We were served by Lottie who was lovely and a very kind and knowledgeable host, explaining to us what was in each pasty! 5/5, would definitely recommend.

Great experience getting a multitude of snacks today. Server (Lottie) was excellent and extremely friendly and helpful

6 of us turned up to eat in. It's a cozy place, good food, kids welcome & fantastic service from Lottie. Everyone enjoyed the food. Between us we had a few different pasties, kids had sausage rolls. Sausage roll must have been good as my little girl made me skip my way out with her!

I came to the Cornish Bakery as I've walked past it on many occasions and stopped to look at the delights in the window. Last Friday I was on leave from work and decided to call in for a spot of breakfast prior to the shops opening. Upon entering the shop, I was greeted by an exceptionally friendly member of staff, Lottie, who helped me choose the best raspberry croissant I've had. I had a lovely time taking in the ambience of the shop on a peaceful Friday morning. I left the shop certain that I would return, both due to the scrumptiousness of my breakfast, but also how friendly the staff are, in this case, Lottie, who radiates positive energy and is a real ambassador for The Cornish Bakery. I will definitely return!

A lovely little place, great food, nice drinks, delightful atmosphere, clean tables, and all served by the lovely Lottie

Went in this morning the staff were amazing with my toddler and really looked after him great coffee and food to highly recommend

Hello! We’ve been here multiple times over the years but this is the first time I’ve left a review. We ordered two large traditional pasties, a chocolate milkshake and a flat white coffee. The food, as it has always been, is delicious and reasonably priced, especially when you consider the quality! Our service today (22/03/2024) by Lottie was excellent! She was really lovely and treated us to brilliant customer service! Thanks again Lottie, for the wonderful breakfast :)

Stopped off here with a friend for a coffee and cake. We had a really warm welcome from Lottie. Would definitely pop in again.

Amazing coffee, cakes, scones and pasties. Lovely friendly staff. Really accommodating to our 3 month old. Made her first day trip very special

We was served by possibly the sweetest lady I have ever met called Lottie. She was full of smiles which started out day off visiting York amazingly, she was so friendly and amazing with my little girls and made lots of conversation. Every customer that came in after was treated the exact same and our pastries was super tasty (my little girls had more) You have a great lady working with you there, she is enough to brighten anyone up on a down day or like us, start your day off amazing. Thank you for being you Lottie ❤️

Really enjoyed my brunch. Young lady who served me, lottie, was really pleasant and cheerful, made for a very welcoming atmosphere. I ordered a bacon and leek pasty and a white chocolate mocha. Both were divine and a right treat! It's nice to thank people when you really mean it! I was contemplating buying another for the trip home but didn't think my waist would thank me.

Beautiful, quiet cosy spot in the city centre for breakfast and coffee. The croissants are so flavoursome! Lottie was super friendly and helpful!

Arrived here very early and even then we where greeted with the biggest smile, we sat in and had some fresh out the oven pasties, our hot chocs and coffee where spot on. As it was quiet Lottie popped over asked how everything was and we all got chatting. She had a badge about Autism so we asked her what work life was like. She explained how amazing her team are with her and how understanding they are with Autism and bi-polar, it's a shame others aren't so understanding. It was a pleasure to meet someone who loves their job even at 8 in the morning. Lottie is a credit to your company anyone would be lucky to have her!

Beautiful pasties and hot chocolate. We love going here. Lottie was very friendly and helpful. The food is always so good.

Went in and asked for coffee and toilet. Not told until after we had paid for drinks that they have no toilet. Then coffee was like warm and got told to sit down but then shouted back over to get your own coffee. No service...

Visited the Coney Street branch in York City Centre. My mum and I had fantastic service from Lottie, great coffee/pastries too!

Went in today for some pasties and drinks and was incredible as always. The chilli pasty I had was incredible and the service by Oliver and the other girl didn’t get her name that was there was nice as always.

We were served by Lottie, super bubbly and welcoming and made sure to ask about milk preferences and even if I wanted cinnamon on my chai or not! Amazing vegan options as well. Highly recommend when in York!

We were given a lovely welcome by Lottie behind the counter who guided us to the best pastries for a mid morning snack. Pan chocolates and an amazing almond croissant with cherry filling coupled with superb flat white and a couple of hot chocolates filled...

Served by Lottie, very lovely girl. Dog friendly cafe, provided free dog treats. Lovely food would definitely go again!

From Truro to York enjoy the brand.and coffee ☕

We loved it here! Lottie was so sweet, accommodating, and had wonderful recommendations. My partner from America wasn't sure which pastie to try and Lottie was great help. Can't wait to go back!

Very tasty non greasy food pastries and pasty and. Lovely coffee

Saw the amazing desserts in the window and had to go back to sample the cinnamon role with icing topped with pistachios and the Cornish pudding, cos on your birthday one pudding is just not enough!!! We were served by Lottie who brightened our day...

A lovely place. Welcomed through the door by the staff, always a good sign. Had a light lunch. Brie and Cranberry Brioche, cheese and bacon croissant and a pastel de nata. All lovely. The pastel de nata was so creamy, one of the best I've ever had. Took some cheese straws away, they were absolutely fantastic. Highly recommend this tiny independent in a sea of big corporate coffee shops. One note, they are very tiny so only a handful of seats and no customer toilet, but forgive them that, they are tiny!

nice coffee and amazing pastries but staff is not very nice

The baked goods and coffee were great. And Lottie was the nicest and best server ever! She took extra care with our orders and was very helpful and pleasant in general.

We only we into this cafe for coffee which was very nice but only warm I had a cappuccino and my wife had flat black . Her's was hot the pastries looked fantastic but we had only had a full English at the hotel. There were on 3 of us in the cafe / bakers and it wasn't too warm in there ....it was snowing outside and the main door was open because of safety regulations so the shop was cold inside and we were sitting at the back ...The 2 staff were very friendly only the cold made me give this cafe/bakers a lower score.

Lovely little coffee and pastry shop to eat in and take away. Very reasonable prices and very tasty food. Friendly staff

I came in for some lunch and coffee to take away. Amazing as always and the service by team coney was brilliant. Will be back again soon!

We had a few take away items from The Cornish Bakery over the last few days and all of the pastries were great, the staff were chatty and friendly but served us quickly and the drinks were great.

Popped into this little cafe for breakfast one day while we were visiting York. Beautiful pastries - the chocolate twist was amazing! Enjoyed it so much we came back the next morning! Really wanted to pop back for some of the carrot cake which looked...

Lottie served us at Coney Street and really looked after us. Her customer service made a huge difference. Thanks Lottie.

We tried best pastries in York, both savoury and sweet, it was very difficult to hold back from having more :D Thanks a lot to Lottie, who served us, she was really sweet and helpful!

Visited over the week and Cottie was a sweetheart, very helpful in deciding. Had the potato quiche type slice and vegetable pastry, both wonderful! Highly reccomend, Thank you so much :o)

You can't pay by cash you can only pay by card which is ridiculous. They was no sign outside saying only card it was only when I went to pay I was told

Popped in early this morning for a coffee and a pastry, received a lovely warm welcome from Lottie. It’s a lovely cosy place which was clean and comfortable. The pastries (pain aux raisin, pain aux chocolat and chocolate twist) were fresh and crisp and the...

Delicious pastries, had to try on my venture to York! Throughly recommend veggie Cornish pasty, piping hot!

Really lovely, young polite lass working here, pleasant and welcoming. It was busy and popular when I called in with an ongoing stream of customers. Eat in or take out. Range of Cornish pasties and also some yummy bakes, very good range and tasty too. I was tempted by several but plumped for a hefty slab of Cornwall cake, so I'll just have to revisit to try their other treats, awww shucks, quelle chore, ha. This veggie friendly slab contained blueberries, raspberries etc and was good. Cinnamon on my hot chocolate too. Very obliging staff.

Lottie was such a joy to speak to. She made a personal connection with me as she filled my order which brightened the experience. I love their pasties, but the customer service is an added bonus.

Fantastic almond croissant and chai latte served by the incredibly friendly Lottie. Would 100% recommend!

Lovely little cafe offering great coffee and gorgeous food. Cosy and friendly with great staff. Lottie made sure we had everything we needed. She was cheery and warm which was great. Happy customers!

Came in with my partner. Greeted by Lottie who was lovely, polite and very friendly! Ordered, good atmosphere, Lottie again was polite and smiley! If we were here for longer we would come back again. Thank you Lottie!

Fantastic service from the lovely Rachel food was nice and the hot chocolate was lovely and smooth would definitely recommend very friendly thanks

This was our favourite bakery in York !! And we visited 17 during the week! Delicious food, beautiful drinks and the friendliest staff ever! We were served by Lottie who was so lovely and brightened our day !! Thank you so much, I couldn’t say...

Thank you to Lottie and the whole team for making our experience special. Lottie was so nice to our dig Albie providing him with water & treats. We had two teas sausage rolls and extremely good portuguese custard tarts.

Great service from Lottie. My wife has Reynauds and her hands were particularly cold on our visit. Lottie supplied a beaker full of hot water for my wife to warm her hands for which we were very grateful. We both had coffee and a scone...

Really friendly and helpful service from Oliver. The scones were delightful and the coffee was lovely. I will definitely be returning!

Lovely food and the best coffee in town. Oliver served me and was polite and helpful throughout the experience.

Lottie served us and was ever so warm and friendly! We had a few coffees and pastries and they were all beautiful! We will definitely be back, if only for the wonderful customer service. I only have 5 stars because I couldn’t give 6!!

GIVE LOTTIE A XMAS BONUS!! What an amazing lady - so helpful, warm and fun. Helped us with the massive choice - was very patient with us taking our time and looked after our every need. We will be back and hope Lottie will be...

Lottie was lovely, very helpful and patient while I changed my order, scones and coffee lovely would recommend. Great prices too xx

Stopped by for a coffee, we were helped by Lottie, who was welcoming and gave us great suggestions for our short stay in York. 10/10 would visit again.

Lovely pastries, carrot cake was amazing even took home more food also had great service by Lottie

A must visit ! A wonderful warm welcome with scrumptious sweet and savory pastries, scones and hot drinks.

Served by Lottie, she was absolutely lovely and provided great service. Great food and drink. Highly recommend.

What a little gem of a coffee shop! Coffee to die for and them gluten free brownies 😋 delish. Super friendly staff!

Not even a one star worth. Extremely rude staff and service. Coffee tasted rubbish, no toilets, old fashion and horrible atmosphere Not recommend this place at all there are plenty coffee shops down this street try else where don't waste your money there.

Absolutely terrible coffee, no coffee in the coffee just milk!! Would never visit again.

Came here a couple of weeks ago just for a coffee and cake to rest my feet during our day out. The coffee was amazing and the staff were lovely. We had such a nice coffee that we decided to go there for breakfast the next morning. The staff instantly recognised us and made us feel so welcome and valued. Will definitely be coming here for a coffee for any trip to York in the future!

Excellent service from lottie. She was very helpful and knew all food lines. Food and coffee very good. Friendly atmosphere and very clean. Will return

I found the cafe area albeit small to be clean and bright with a nice décor.... The staff were helpful with a fun side to them.... Next time I'm back in York I will definitely visit again...

Staff so friendly and helpful, loved the choice of different pastries. The girls really provided an excellent service and the service was certainly more friendlier than The Ivy Well done, especially Lottie xx

Great spot - the staff are so kind and welcoming here, we were served by Lottie and had a lovely breakfast with quick service! Excellent pasties and coffee!

Wow! This little coffee shop was incredible! We came here on day 1 of our visit to York where my partner ordered a mocha and a chocolate twist and I ordered a lemon and blueberry tart and a cloudy lemonade. Everything was full of flavour...

Limited seating but excellent place for relaxing refreshments. Good value for money.

Such a warm welcome by the staff - Lottie was fantastic! Only place we passed that was open early on a Sunday and we were so glad of it! Kids loved the babyccinos and pastries were delicious!

What’s lovely little cafe. Sara was very polite and made me an awesome hot chocolate that was creamy to the last mouthful. The pan-au-chocolate was one of the nicest I’ve ever eaten (and I eat a lot), you could taste is was made from all...

Perfect breakfast and Lottie was lovely!

Lovely welcoming cafe with beautiful food. Lottie who served us couldn't have been nicer and more welcoming.

Excellent service and good food . Lottie was very welcoming of us and our dog .Will definitely come back.

We visited York & had coffee & a pastry, we were served by Lottie who was a friendly & bubble girl, a credit to this coffee shop, highly recommended, Allan and Sarah: )

Popped in for a scone and the girls serving were so lovely with Charlie our cocker spaniel. They gave him treats and made a fuss of him an absolute credit to your company

Lovely food, delicious coffee, served by Lottie, without doubt the best service I've had in a long time. Thank you Lottie, you are brilliant.

My daughter and I stopped in for coffee and decided to order a cheese and onion hand pie. The employees were so friendly and polite. The food and cappuccinos were incredibly delicious.

I recently visited the Cornish Bakery on Coney Street after a long walk with my wife and our 11-month-old daughter. We decided to dine in and ordered Cornish pasties and drinks. Unfortunately, the experience left much to be desired. The first issue was the size...

Cappuccino and lattes were very good. We loved our Cornish pie which was deliciously warmed up. Cattle was very welcoming and helpful.

Love going here when I'm in the UK! One of the few places I've seen to get a proper pasty. Customer service was excellent!
