The Cornish Bakery in West Dorset

Tasty pasties and coffee, cheerful staff but self service not preferred.

Decorations is modern 8/10 nice. Price eat in is high. Price isn't cheape. Tourist spot. Cafe slightly bitter. Bekery quality is ok. Business is good location. We ate in with pet. Monitor each hr is 30 -50 people. Each person 10-20 gbp per hr roughly estimated 600 gbp , estimated a day 4-5000 gbp sale revenue. I hope shop donated bk to local community and hope they treat employees good too. Profit is very high. Good for the store.

My favorite pasty shop when visiting England!! The pasties are delicious, so fresh and the pastry is amazing!! I visited recently to buy pasties to bring back to the States and the lady who helped me was great in suggesting how to transport them, and they were still frozen when we arrived home after 24 hours of traveling!! Now I have delicious pasties in my freezer to enjoy and remember a truly wonderful place. Thank you so very much!! Highly recommend, I can see why they sell out so quickly!!

Ciders, milkshake & (fresh out of the oven) scones. Scones were great, milkshake nah, ciders satisfactory. This is a chain but the service felt personable. The atmosphere was OK - it didn't invite us to linger.

Good coffee great selection of food competively priced

Good fresh food .corniche cake and pastes curry paste worth a try

After a loverly costal walk there is nothing better than a nice warm pasty served by welcoming staff in a warm cosy atmosphere 😀

Popped in to grab a bite to eat for me and the family, wasn't too concerned with price as the food looked great. However, was turned off by the lack of payment options when told they don't accept cash. Didn't bother to go back for the rest of the week out of principle.

Great friendly staff excellent coffee and pastries and always give my dog a couple of biscuits!!

My husband loves the cornish pasties

Delicious and excellent welcome. Perfect to start our stay in England

These handmade pasties and pastries were out of this world. Kids loved the fresh sausage rolls but its the Cornish pasties for me ❤️

We always head to West Bay for the day when we're holidaying in the area, and we always save our Cornish Pasty treat for this place. Amazing selection and very friendly for dogs. Perfection!

Nice coffee and delicious treats including fresh pasties.

The staff were super and the pasty I chose was delicious 10/10

Amazing selection of cakes, treats and pasties. Various pasties from traditional to chicken masala. Excellent coffee too.

It's a liberty that a place of this size has chosen to take no cash. It's companies like this that are pushing agendas that will leave this country worse off and further away from personal freedom. I will never now buy from this company and use my lack of custom to show my disapproval.

Fantastic Almond Croissant. The Chocolate Brownie was good too.

Got a great cup of tea but the stand out was the spiced chickpea pasty was awesome! Stopped in Bridport on a recommendation and so glad to have found this place.

Amazing Coffee! Amazing pastries and pasty! Highly recommend!!

Great Bakery, with a great choice of reasonably priced savoury tasty pasties and pies along side cakes and tarts, etc. There is seating inside, where pets are welcome. However this is a very popular cafe, where you well may have to queue. It can be so busy that the staff haven't the time to clear tables, or check the toilets, as these are very busy too.

near to the beach and harbour , Ideal for a quick pasty and coffee . Plenty of pasty sizes and types to choose from . Takeaway available to eat around the harbour

They don't take cash and although the food is great it is expensive. Phatpastyco just three doors up is a lot cheaper, and take cash.

If you can walk past without trying the delicious coffee and freshly baked (on site) pastries, you are doing better than me. Surely you cant miss this West Bay delight.

When you fancy a pasty and the company WONT accept cash i guess there also telling me they dont want my custom or money Suggestion go else where to be treated with respect

Definitely my favourite pasties around. The bacon, leek, and cheese is a particular favourite! Always warm & fresh.

Local business supports only card payments. Disappointed. Go broke

A real find, baring in mind, there was nothing else apart from fish and chip huts open. This bakers served us some exquisite fayre and a flat white that was top draw. Dogs welcome which was a bonus, would thoroughly recommend.

Visit here every time we are in West Bay take away mostly but have on a few occasions sat had lunch really nice place staff are really welcoming

Very pricey is the cornish bakery. food is ok, but I think more can be done with the cost, which would be my only criticism

Very welcoming cafe. We had coffees which were very nice. We then bought pasties to take a way, Corniche and a cheese and onion. Although there were queues the staff member was very helpful and explained what was available. Lovely friendly service and the pasties were fab.

Stopped by for a coffee and got a comedy sized cappuccino (1/3 size)... for the price of a "normal" sized coffee everywhere else (£3.20). Felt a bit cheated to be honest, so will ignore them next time I'm down - just another company ripping off its customers.

The food was so good we kept going back again and again

Lovely coffee and cakes. Friendly atmosphere as well. My only criticism would be that they don't take cash.

The Cornish Bakery holds a special place in my heart for its unparalleled food quality and exceptional customer experience. Whether it's an early Sunday morning breakfast or any other time, their wide selection of freshly baked delights and aromatic coffee never fail to impress. The warmth and friendliness of the staff add to the overall charm, making every visit a delightful culinary journey.

Absolutely disgusting price for a tiny cup of takeaway tea 225ml of hot water 1 tea bag no milk and absolutely no customer care whatsoever £2.65 .Never again!

Not the welcome we usually get from tcb. Server wasn’t very helpful and pulled a face when my husband asked for his latte to be extra hot. We felt we were not wanted and the server didn’t want us there, a bit like we were a nuisance to them.

Brownies and chocolate torsane was good. Didn't eat in so can't speak on the inside of the restraunt itself.

Always nice place to pop in, favourite is steak and Stilton pasties and cup of latte coffee

Good place to stop for a decent pasty on our cycle trips.

Really helpful and friendly staff. We bought pasties- which were nice, not the best ever but nice filling of veg and beef, seasoned with plenty pepper. The cinnamon buns were flaky and not too sweet. However, the cheese scone was odd- not just too salty (which it was for me) but with a slight sweetness too, and then a mustardy hit on top. Not quite right (much less salt and no sweetness, please!). Overall the goods looked nicer than they were and I was glad I’d gone in at the end of the day when prices were reduced.

Nice pasties, rather pricey though, service on the slow side.

Visited on Friday and was busy with a nice atmosphere and lots of doggies . There was a lad behind the counter who was not doing anything but did not bother to come over and clear our table from previous guests nor inform us that we were in the wrong queue! Pastries and coffee were nice , didn’t find the staff members that served us overly welcoming . It only has one toilet to serve the whole place , including baby changing , the floor was very wet and the seat was up from the previous user and it was very stained , not particularly pleasant.

Nice coffee, a long wait though

Great place great service lovely food very relaxing atmosphere

Ideal location in West Bay. Friendly service for eat in or takeaway drinks and snacks. Bright, airy, clean surroundings. Single multi use toilet facility. Recommended.

Quick stop to get some takeaway brunch pastries and lunch pasties. The Spiced Winter Bun & the Apple, Rhubarb, & custard turnover are beautiful. Traditional pasty and Cheese & Onion pasties were lovely. Oh and the coffee is great too!

Not a bad place. A little pricy but at least somewhere to sit down and get dry on a wet day. Cornish pudding was very good. Sure to visit again.

Straight away the food prices are ridiculous definitely not made on site.Decided to order an Americano and it was slightly bigger then a shot glass, was gone in 5 sips, left there with my pnts down by my ankles feeling un-easy.Typcial tourist trap place

I’ve never enjoyed a traditional Cornish pasty as much as this one! Hot in the middle, perfect salt, crisp on the outside though dough not dry at all, tender meat. Eaten on the harbour wall watching the waves and the wind! 👌

What a little find, like a tardis inside

Excellent coffee, proper American size, not diluted into overpriced dishwater like some..

The most amazing food - home cooked. Very welcoming experience and dog friendly. The Chicken, Bacon & Jelly jam toastie is outstanding!

Nice looking place in WestBay. Had a medium sized traditional cornish pasty which was horrible, the pastry tasted like it was a week old (not that I've ever eaten week old pastry) and as for the filling....totally tasteless, no seasoning at all, good job I had a sachet of brown sauce to perk it up a bit. Also had a bottle of apple juice to drink. Sadly, I wouldn't rush back.

This lovely Cafe in West Bay never disappoints. A great place to visit all year round. Freshly baked Sausage Rolls and Pasties. Good choice of cakes all reasonably priced. Large eat in seating area, or perfect to take away. Recommend The Sausage Roll and Hot Chocolate Card payment only

Really good food, you can tell it is handmade really good food service, the scenery is really good next to the beach and there are many places to sit which is excellent

Best bakery in dorchester. They do nice pastry. Definitely recommended.

One of the few places open on a wet and windy January afternoon. But served a lovely coffee and the pasties and sausage rolls were out of this world. Lots of cakes and pastries for the sweeter tooth as well.

Phenomenal little bakery with fresh produce every day and very good coffee too. £15 for 2 coffees and 3 baked things so pretty decent value too. The choc toursade is an absolute banger. Went every day during our stay. 🦬

Great cafe - v welcome find on a stormy beach walk ! Pastries v tasty. Bonus that its dog friendly too.

Staying in Dorset during the week. But I can't not stop in West Bay as is one of my favourite places to come. Decided to have lunch here and was not disappointed. Great service, very friendly staff and great atmosphere. Definitely worth a visit if your passing through.

A huge selection of freshly baked goods including the famous Cornish Pasties. Friendly staff and plenty of seating.

Went in Cornish bakery because a man came out ringing a bell and shouting all pasties reduced to £1.75 as it had gone 4:30pm, purchased one pastie but £4.50 came up on the till so told the staff member it should be £1.75 and he said I will cancel the £4.50 and re do it at £1.75, they only do card payment. When I got my bank statement they took £4.50 & £1.75 for the one reduced £1.75 pastie, I always try & avoid card only payment places but i didn't know they didn't take cash, these days it's not safe to use card payment. Cash is king

Pasties were reduced to £1.75 after 4:30 pm so I purchased one just after 4:30 pm but £4.50 came up on the till, I pointed this out and was told they will cancel it & put the pastie down at £1.75, they only take card payment, when I got my bank statement they took £4.50 & £1.75 so i paid twice for one reduced pastie, usually I avoid cashless places & this is why, won't be going to the Cornish bakery again. The place is over priced as it is without paying twice for the same item

Great place! Dog friendly cafe, not expensive and great service. We ordered hot drinks and pastries for breakfast but have previously had pasties and ‘veggie’ alternatives for lunch. A lovely place where we will definitely return.

Very rude lady serving. They take cash only - not surprised because the year before, within a few minutes of using his card, my husband received a fraud alert that it was being used in London to buy pizza and a Uber! Won't be going back.

Friendly service and yummy almond croissants.

Food was ok, however the staff leave a lot to be desired. Rude when ordering food and when asked what sugar free cold drinks there are for diabetics, we were met with ‘water’. Wont be back.

Delicious food, We had a traditional pasty, A chicken masala pasty, Sausage roll and cream tea's. We came back twice whilst staying locally. Highly recommend this place it's a must x

Great coffee, Great setting, Great pasty! Really well thought out and designed eatery. Throughly enjoyed myself

really busy today, lunch time, quieter after, far quicker service than Clarks Village branch (updated from 3 to 4 - finger slipped)

What a horrible place. Nasty rude woman ‘serving’ my husband with a shocking attitude and then refused cash - last time we used a card there it was used fraudulently in London within the hour. Not going near again

Very friendly customer service and best pastie I’ve ever had. Dog friendly too!

Arrived with my disabled daughter and friends. My friend went in and asked if they had a ramp for the wheelchair only to be told they had one once but not now. They showed in their window a promotion for West Bay Wheelchair access to the beach. Shame they couldn’t do the same go get into their shop. No offer of help to get up the step just basically a no you’re in a wheelchair we don’t cater for you! Why did you have access once then decide to get rid of it. Wheelchair users custom no good it seems in West Bay!

We arrived looking for a quick bite to eat but soon realised they didn't take cash so took our custom elsewhere.

Fab little cafe with delicious pastries and pasties!

We visited the Cornish Bakery for the first time today. It won't be the last time. The homemade quiche and plain scones the best we have had in years. Everything is made on the premises. Service and cleanliness is brilliant. When we visited it was busy with customers and dogs. This is a pet friendly cafe. Everyone is made to feel very welcome.

A fabulous bakery with lots of choice. We almost had a pasty a day as they were so lovely. A bonus that they’re dog friendly too. A delight!

When visiting Weymouth I try to fit in a visit to West Bay to have a pastie.

Thank you our gift on my wedding day. So kind x

Thank you for our gift of custard tarts. Are you brought over to us just after we married in the church opposite so kind.. x

Fabulous pastries. Couldn't just leave with one. Bought 3 🙈 Delicious. Quick service. Friendly staff.

Fantastic bakery. Friendly service and great food. Very good takeaway and local to West Bay Harbour and beach ⛱️

Disappointed that this store will not a accept cash , you are contributing to a cashless society , cash is legal tender and should be accepted along side card payments ,

I bought a drink for me and my friend to find that you only except card and not cash and don't understand why you don't except CASH you are contributing to cashless sociality if we don't use our cash then the Elites Will know what we spend and they will have control new world order 2030

Probably the best pasty I've had in my life. Fresh out of the oven lovely and hot, very tasty and very large. Great value at £4.90 to take away. Efficient and friendly service. Highly recommended.

Very nice coffee and Cornish pastie, would defo return, little seating area, which got full quickly, one toilet at the back.

We were down near Westbay for a wedding and decided to pop in here before heading home for something nice and filling to eat before a long journey. I tried the beef and Chipotle pasty, which was delicious, and really packed a punch. Then my girlfriend and I shared a rhubarb and custard pasty, which was so sweet and tasty. Every bite had lots of filling and the pastry itself was thick and crumby. Thoroughly enjoyed!

Lovely place nice food bit of a wasp issue when I visited though which was a bit off putting.

Nice young chap behind counter very polite and cheerful

Serious attitude. Having ordered, they refused to take cash. My objection was met with a serious attitude and an unnecessary smugness. Clearly the Cornish Bakery don’t operate in any of the numerous bays in Cornwall which have no signal. A clear view of a smug...

Went in to ask about gluten free items. All I got was no... suggested that they should offer something and I was totally blanked by the lady behind the till.. rude and uncalled for !!

We arrived at 6pm closes at 7pm we order 3 cornish pasties one sausage roll. We have eaten here on many occasions and been happy. The pasties had obviously been standing around for ages the pastry crust was rock hard and the pasty was Luke...

The coffee was great and there was an extensive array of treats on offer. Great place to stop for a break.

The best place to eat around here.we are often at this place

We had scones & coffee there on 25th July 2023 & the best thing about it is that they are dog friendly & very welcoming. The food is amazing. The service is very prompt & fast. They also give dog biscuits which is a nice touch. Highly recommended.

Popped in to get some lunch for the family lost my custom as they don't take cash disgraceful not everyone uses cards

Just been in to get some pasties for lunch lost my custom as they don't take cash not everyone uses card

Coffee is to small. They should offer larger sizes. I would visit more if this was the case!

Best pastry ever. Amazing staff. Good coffee.
