The Lacock Bakery in Wiltshire

Excellent service and everything they sell is very delicious, the price is very appropriate, the attention is very friendly and the town of Lacock is simply charming

We stopped in this very beautiful village on our way home from Athens. This bakery looked very charming. Would highly recommend the apple and cider sausage rolls and traditional cornish pasty. Sadly I would not recommend the coffee. Although the staff were not rude, they didn't seem particularly friendly either. Overall recommend eating here

Great food, well priced and filling! Would recommend for a little lunch spot if you’re passing by. Or to grab a takeaway treat/coffee. One lady working was lovely, the other however was quite rude :/ dismissed customers and spoke poorly about them when behind the till. Apart from this, it was a top notch place to visit whilst we were looking around :)

We love calling in here when visiting Laycock. Super home-made baked goods. And a nice pot of tea if eating in.

My wife & myself called into the bakery for a scone & cuppa, well worth the visit, staff amazing, saved my phone for me thanks

Very small little bakery, and looking at photos I had pretty high expectations. Sadly was a little disapointed on a few aspects. The onion sausage roll was overpowering with the onion flavour so much so I threw it away. The options for sandwhichs/rolls was minimal which on a bank holiday weekend I'd have expected more. Staff were friendly however, but I won't return.

Very nice little bakery, homemade sausage roll was lovely and nice ice-cream served. Lots of jams and sweets available to buy

Lacock Bakery is a small sweet and savory shop in a typical street in Lacock and it is really beautiful and characteristic. There are many products on offer, some are delicious like the Cornish pasty, others a little less so, like the spinach and ricotta rolls. Unfortunately, the service is very hasty, not very kind and does not help or encourage you to buy more or ask for advice on the products. A real shame!

Like other reviewers we found the atmosphere off. The staff were unfriendly and very abrupt. I would advise going to the stables cafe where they are friendly and helpful

Ordered cheese and pickle sandwich and chocolate brownie, the sandwich was on brioche and stale and dry with a lack of filling, and I’ve never had a brownie so dry I threw it away. I had heard it was a fantastic bakery but was very disappointed 😞

The best pastries I've ever had. You have to try this small cake in my hand.

Enjoyed our stop here for a snack

This is the second time we have visited on a mid Sunday afternoon and will be the last. Both times we have felt very uncomfortable with one member of staff, who is rather abrasive , and seems more concerned with closing on time than welcoming or serving customers. . The atmosphere is very off putting and as other reviews have stated.. we are not alone in our feelings. Sweeping up in front of customers and announcing shortly after 3.15 that they are closing at 4pm.. does not seem the correct way of treating tourists and customers in general.

Nice selection of things, great staff, a proper countryside village store.

Lovely bakery/cafe. Small & enjoyable. Dog friendly

Dropped in for some takeaway cakes and coffees. Friendly staff and the best Almond Bakewell….definitely recommended:-) We had a flapjack which I was informed was equally as tasty. We also treated ourselves to a slice of shortbread for the walk back - equally as lovely!

A nice and traditional feeling bakery setting with various products (fresh & shelved) available for sale. Worth a visit.

We visited on a cold November afternoon. The cafe had no customers sat inside but despite this, we thought we'd give this place a try. From the first moment we entered we felt totally unwelcome. We were not greeted by that lady behind the counter and as I approached the counter I was immediately met with "WHAT CAN I GEY YOU"? No smile, no "HELLO" or "PLEASE" or "THANK YOU". When I asked for two teas to drink in I was immediately met with an abrupt response of "I'LL BRING IT OVER" before I'd even had chance to say I'd also like to order cakes to go with the tea. When I asked whether they had any gluten free options I was simply met with a response of "NO". 🙄 Absolute zero customer service skills.

Cozy place with amazing home-made ice-cream

I thought this was a quaint shop and like to buy locally. However I was overcharged for 3 packets of biscuits and a loaf. £24 I'd paid for a calendar seperately but think I was charged again. Very expensive

Fantastic bakery with a little cafe, dog friendly too!

Great bakery offering hot drinks, too. Nice atmosphere, great service, nice selection of pastries (vegan options available). Highly recommended.

Out with girlfriends on a visit to Lacock Abbey. Thought the food here would be good as the shop looked cute but the cakes were dry and the hospitality not very welcoming. The bill was about £40 for cakes and tea so a bit expensive. Sadly not returning

A dog friendly shop/cafe! I had just finished a 2 hour hike in the area and desperately need something to eat and drink. The sign outside the shop said dogs were welcome and I was so thankful! There are only 3 tables inside, which were all taken, but there was a small bench and dog water bowl just outside the entrance. I ordered a warm Cornish pasty which was delicious! The loaves looked amazing, but I didn't buy any this time. There's also a range of ice creams to buy... Great for summer time! There is a variety of sweets, drinks and deli items to purchase, and chilled drinks are in the fridge to the right when you walk in. Great prices! Staff were welcoming and friendly. I'd highly recommend!

Lovely bakery in the nicest village. Enjoyed cream teas and excellent service. Plenty of choice of cakes and pastries. Would recommend

Not worth the price, smallest wedge of cake I have ever paid for.

As a bakery, this place was very disappointing, very early afternoon and there were very few freshly baked goods evident and what there was was frankly not appealing. The staff certainly were not welcoming either. The store seems more interested in selling souvenirs than anything else. I wouldn’t bother coming here again, go to the deli!

Loved this place. We found it on the off chance. Amazing selection of bread, pasties and cakes. Staff were really helpful and friendly. There are three tables to sit at inside. We will be back

The pastries were very delicious. I would highly recommend the sausage roll and other pastries. Scones were good but I prefer the pastries. I had the hot chocolate too, but it was too sweet. Also, not ideal if you are looking for fresh coffee or drink, it’s from a machine.

I visited the bakery a week ago and I have to say their selection of items is fantastic. From scones, eclairs, cakes, sausage rolls, pasties and much more, the items on display offer something for everyone. Don't believe the bad reviews on here as the bakery is fantastic. I filmed in there whilst I was there and its on my channel on Youtube, Nomadic Jas. So you'll get a glimpse of the bakery. Fantastic place.

Lady was not happy serving us talking about closing soon, asked what time is closing she said 4pm? This was 3pm. We only wanted coffee and cake. She said we could stay but everything seemed to be too much trouble like sugar in the coffees and even asking if we could have a spoon to stir was awkward. I brought these two people to Lacock for a treat and it was awful. She then went on to treat another later couple the same way. In this time when businesses are failing and people are losing their jobs you would think she would be grateful for customers especially mid week.

Makes wonderful Lardy cake. Yummy!

First visit to this cafe looking for a light lunch. We approached her at the counter to politely enquire whether we should sit down for service or order at the counter. She rudely told us she was the only one on duty and begrudgingly took our order. As she prepared the food and drink she remained unhelpful and disinterested. Only when another server came downstairs to the serving area did her attitude improve a little. Not what you expect of someone in the hospitality industry!

We popped into the bakery to defrost as it was bitterly cold and thick fog. The lovely lady who served us was not at all well but she soldiered on and served us great scone's with cream and jam and great coffee. We hope she gets well soon.

Fantastic central place to stop for hot & cold drinks as well as freshly prepared cakes & savoury items. They also do a range of fresh artisan breads. We enjoy the chat with the lady behind the counter and the price was reasonable too.

I couldn't try any of the cakes as the ‘Known Allergens’ book was so disorganised. The person serving said she “didn’t think there were any nuts” – I had to ask if there was an allergen book to check. There was, but unfortunately it was so disorganised she couldn’t find anything on sale in the book. To her credit she did try very hard to find want I had asked for. My friend had a cake and she said it was delicious. The tea was nice too.

had taken away tea and cakes. Nice old fashioned bakery. lovely variety of cakes and sweets.

A lovely smell of freshly cooked produce and so very hard not to buy it all. A good selection of choice and wish we had something like this where we live.

Asked for an ice cream and unfortunately it appears the member of staff serving had never served one. She picked up a tub, and when I mentioned a cone instead of asking what sort she picked up a traditional cone and I had to request a waffle cone. No gloves and handling cones with bare hands! She the asked he other member of staff (who just looked like she didn't want to be there) to hand het a napkin to wrap around the cone.

This baker sells proper traditional "Wiltshire Lardy cakes" if you have never tasted one you dont know what you are missing. I've loved them all my life but sadly many traditional bakers have been put out of business by the supermarkets. It's very hard to find lardy cakes now so I hope the Lacock bakery keeps making Lardy cakes for ever. All their baked products ta are great including the Pasties. Highly recommended.

Great place to grab a snack, pasties, sausage rolls all fresh and tasty. Friendly service.

Quirky little bakery with so much potential in a stunning location. There was flies in the cake display unit (admittedly on a hot day its sometimes hard to avoid) so put us off a tad, the drinks from the fridge were lukewarm and the staff made us feel like an imposition instead of a welcome customer.

Fabulous food and really friendly staff

Visited after running the popular Lacock 10k and was by that point desperate for a drink and some cake. This bakery is in a great location and is itself a lovely little shop, let down by slightly unfriendly service which made us feel like we were an imposition. We had planned to eat in but weren't asked whether we were doing so or taking away and as such our drinks and cakes were put in takeaway packaging... A little annoying as coffee is never as nice out of a paper cup. All in all a bit of a shame, coffee and cake was okay but probably wouldn't visit again.

Nice coffees and selection of bakes. Reasonably priced. Crusty sourdough bread we bought was good. Set in a pretty little village with lots of photo opps.

A very popular bakery with a small seating area inside and outside. Good range of cakes, bread and pies. Hot and cold drinks available. It's tucked away a bit on a side road but worth seeking out if you are visiting the lovely village of Lacock.

Hi All, First of all we were very excited to be here as per the review read before our visit. But it was total disappointment. We were horrified to find apple cakes with best before date to be 27 December 2021. I mean seriously who sells more than a month old food?? The lady cautiously put that on sale from 3.99 to 3 GBP. We purchased few items like choc cake, lemon drizzle cake and garlic parsley mini sticks but only after rechecking over the best before date and also reconfirming with the lady on its freshness. But definitely not impressive first visit. Just one suggestion..do check for the food freshness and also package cakes for their validity before purchase.

Walked in at 3.45 on a Friday afternoon. Bakery was empty, except for the lady behind the till. Our welcome, a gruff and unfriendly - "we close at 4". Absolutely fine to be closing at 4 and advising, but the attitude is unnecessary. We were...

Excellent Cornish pasty and coffee and really fabulous service.

The place is nice, but the pastries are not tasty

Bakery is the only word I need to hear. We were in town at the Red Lion for lunch and had a few minutes to wander around. We stopped in the bakery for some treats. I picked up a brownie and my wife picked up...

I'm a huge fan of traditional Wiltshire Lardy cake, and had one this week from the bakery. The best ever! Lovely and freshly made, with lots of lovely gooey stickyness. You just can't beat homemade!

It feels like this bakery has missed a trick. Located in a prime position within Lacock, it has the benefit of a mature tourist trade. In my eyes it should and could be making alot of money. It could be a fantastic little bakery selling artisan produce and coffee However the reality is this bakery feels like it is selling cheap produce at significant cost. Coffee comes from one of those fast serve one button machines that tastes awful. The selection of pastries, cakes and other producs ( with the exception of the hundreds of jars of condiments lining the wall) are in short supply, Everytime I have gone in there the shelves have been pretty bare. The ice cream is not worth it, too expensive, lacking flavour and you can find better for cheaper just up the road near the abbey. Lastly the few times we have visited there only seems to be one staff member on. It's not enough, you need at least two. Certainly missed a trick with this place.

Nice traditional bakery with warm pasties and sasuage rolls. Cakes and drinks as well. We ate our lunch in the sunny churchyard watching artists doing watercolours.

Lots of lovely pieces to choose from but not just cakes bread ice creams chocolate sweets. Very friendly staff

Went to this bakery earlier and got a mocha and a cookie. The mocha was made in a press button machine and tasted awful. The cookie was far too sweet but edible at least. On the plus side, this bakery is absolutely gorgeous. If only the did proper coffee I would go back again.

Loved the taste of lacock bread 👍👍

One of several independent stores in the NT owned village of Lacock. Worth poking your nose in for their home made products and we picked up a couple of loaves before heading home

After a visit to Lacock Abbey, we decided to pick up a few bits for lunch and afternoon tea to enjoy back at our motorhome which we were staying in over at the camping/ caravan site. Picked up scones, jam, clotted cream and pasties. All...

Visited The Lacon last week, 5 years after my previous visit to Hemsby. Lorna and her team were so welcoming & friendly, nothing was too much trouble. There was a little blip with the app, (what we wanted wasn’t on there) but after attempting to...

... but it wasn't particularly friendly service. Both myself and my husband try to be friendly and thank anyone and everyone for what they're doing but no matter how much both of us tried, we couldn't get a smile or a thank you with what...

Little gem, sells lots of lovely things.

Good range of bakery products and breads, chocolate and sweets. Excellent fresh eggs. Very helpful staff. Opened 5 days per week including Sundays. Bench conveniently situated outside the shop.

I came in yesterday for icecream I bought 2 tubs with 2 scops in each I couldn't bleve it cost £9 pounds i thought it was vary expensive ! I think they taken advantage off pepeople

Reminded me of going into bakers when I was a kid on holiday. Lots of sweet and savory snacks and some old brands I hadn't seen before. There wasn't a huge selection of cakes or pastries but they did have a few. They're were 4 of us and we choose a savory snacks each and they offered to warm of up... Unfortunately this meant slinging it into the microwave (not a criticism.. Every baker seems to do this) but this meant while my pasty was lukewarm my son's was scalding hot - so be careful. It's a lovely little place and I bet it's very busy during the summer/tourist months. The single staff member wasn't particularly helpful, not rude, but just a bit off. Maybe they'd had a long day. Worth a visit if you're hungry.

A cute little bakery, well worth the visit.

Ordered a takeaway sausage roll and it was an awful burnt offering. Coffee was average. Disappointing!

We visited with our three excited grandchildren to be met by a very sour faced woman who was sighing as the youngsters were taking far too long to select their goodies. Sadly the selection was still poor, the sausage rolls were way overpriced and not...

Dry, stale, microwaved over priced.

Loved the authentic home baked goodness of the shortbread and pies

Lacock Bakery is a very pretty quaint English bakery. Unfortunately the baked goods are average (we had a millionaire's shortbread, lardy cake and flapjack) and the customer service was very poor. The staff were rude and ignored customers and when we were eventually served they...

Waited behind a couple who were ordering hot drinks. Took the server several minutes for some reason, another server came from the back totalling ignoring us and busied herself fiddling around. We walked out would have bought some bread and cakes. Cant stand the attitude...

We bought a couple of jams, 2 slices, and 1 chocolate monkey. This bakery was tasty and it was quiant. We enjoyed eating the food from here.

Lovely looking bakery and friendly staff however the loaf we bought was very stale and could hardly cut into it, when we did it was dry and had to be thrown straight in the bin. We may have just been unlucky.

We bought sausage rolls here, we were asked if we would like them warmed up which resulted in them being thrown in a microwave for 30 seconds. They were only lukewarm, tough and chewy. Definitely not freshly made, probably frozen. Would not recommend. I expect the other products are just as bad. Also very overpriced.

Saw the Bakery and popped in for a couple of sausage rolls and a drink. The sausage rolls were not only expensive (£2.50 each) but also stale. The lady serving was sighing and generally couldn't care whether we there or not. The only friendly person...

As an old Wiltshire codger was looking for a lardy cake from my youth as most are poor imitations of the original. The lardy cakes we bought, me and 95 yr old father, could not be faulted. Great tasted, beautiful lamination, right amount of sugar/lard/fruit....

On the way to our Melksham hotel we popped into Lacock for a look around. This bakery had a good range of pasties, bread and cakes but unfortunately we were just on our way to tea so had to resist temptation. We had intended to pop back in the following day for lunch but time constraints meant we could not.

Popped in and bought a couple of scones with fresh cream to take home. They were quite expensive and we hoped that they would be of good quality. Unfortunately this was not the case. When we got them home we found the bottoms were burnt and the scones were quite hard, certainly not worth the cost.

Bought 2 cream scones here yesterday and can honestly say they were the worst and most expensive scones I have ever tasted. They were burnt on the bottom and extremely hard. So disappointed!! especially at £2.50 each!!

With both the village pubs being fully booked and us being very hungary, we visited the bakery for something to eat. We took forever to pick as the array of pastries was immense and we could not make up our minds. We opted for the crimped cornish pastries, which we had warmed up, and the were perfect. Light crisp pastry (no soggy bottoms here!) deliciously full with slightly peppery tang. Look no further for that special snack!

Lacock is a beautiful village and this is a nice place to get some food to go. We enjoyed our sweet (Lardy Cake).

The famous Cornish pasty had a simple taste, so it's not necessarily delicious, but I think it's a good experience to enjoy British culture.

Fans may recognise the Bakery from its appearance in Cranford. Beyond that, it is a great place for a afternoon break, and it has a bench outside on which you can sit and watch the world go by.

It sells cake do I need to say more

Quaint service and atmosphere but pricey!! a rather overworked lady serving..We nearly gave her a stroke with our order!! We returned the compliment with the excessive bill!! Service slow ..really thrown by large orders!! Took our pasties sausage rolls and cake home to our holiday barn conversion!! Where we pondered the hole in our wallets!!

It was such a hot day when we visited Lacock that we just had to stop at the Lacock Bakery for an ice cream and to admire this very quaint shop where the assistant is dressed in period costume! Very nice indeed.

Great shop lots of yummy things to eat especially the lardycake friendly staff

Great homecooked food. Very friendly staff.

Not particularly a bakery! Sells lots of sweets and other food goods and a small amount of bread and pastries. The bread we bought was disappointingly not fresh

The delicious smell of baking lures you in and you have to buy! Not only is the bread, pasties and cake delicious, but they also have a small area where they serve tea and tosties, served by a ladie in a black dress and mop cap...lovely!

Amazing loved everything in their

As with so many shops and cafes in Lacock this place is just another expensive tourist trap. Sure they sell nice fresh home made food but they charge top dollar for it, even takeaway is pricey.

Called in for a scone, disappointed that only one left mid afternoon so only purchased that and upon trying to cut in two it crumble and virtually impossible to butter without falling to bits very disappointed, £1.50 not bad priced but had better and wanted to try some lardy cake but non of that left either ! need to do more baking during bank holiday weekends

Friendly staff, food looks very nice but only tried the ice creams. Lacked a lot of flavour we thought, have had better.

Awesome bakery! I got a pastry straight out of the oven and I swear it was the best pastry I have ever had (It was filled with melty cheese, onions and potatoes). Very hearty and satisfying!

old world bakery with in Lacock ! the rost veg pasty I got for work was very good.

Such a cute little bakery with the staff all in costume serving. Thoroughly enjoyed the caramel and Bailey's cupcake. So good. Bought and extra two to take home. Loads of little treats for kids in here. The chili beef sausage rolls looked really good. Will try next time.

The cakes are good. You can eat in the interior patio but there are very few tables.

A lovely bakery with lovely cakes and pastries. I usually end up buying a pork pie everytime we visit because they are so nice. The ice cream is reasonably priced and lots of flavours. The shop itself is small and can get busy with 8-10 people inside but the staff are always friendly and courteous.
