Recently visited the bakery in Looe. No problem at all with the quality of the food but shocked that as I stood there waiting for my order I watched staff bin so much of what was left! Why not reduce it or donate it? Wasting food when so many are in need is just wrong.
I will no longer purchase anything from this chain.

The Cornish Bakery in Cirencester is one of my favourite coffee spots in a town that takes its coffee very seriously.
The building is beautiful, and it’s a great place to work from. WiFi and plug sockets next to every seat, so no awkward hovering near the one outlet by the toilet.
The pastries are great but I’m mostly here for the coffee, which is made wonderfully and always hits the spot. Staff are genuinely lovely. Busy place, but they always make you feel well looked after.
The only drawback is the takeaway cups, but I’ll use that as an excuse to drink ‘in’

I visited the Lyme Regis Cornish Bakery today. I found the service efficient and the staff friendly

I visited the Lyme Regis Cornish Bakery today. I found the service efficient and the staff friendly. I ordered a portuguese custard tart and was very disappointed with the quality. It was not an authentic one made with egg as the filling was like custard just yellow sweet and a bit runny. Not the texture of a proper egg tart. It was also cold. I was not given a refund as I had eaten the whole tart, which was my mistake. I have also found out that they never cook their scones fresh every day they always use the previous day's batch. Bearing in mind the high price of these items and low quality I will not be returning.

Norwich Branch

Norwich Branch: My first time going to the Cornish Bakery, the Shakshuka Croissant was lovely and so was the coffee (latte). However, I found the customer service let my experience down. Queued at 8:30am, and only one lady on the til dealing with customers, no problem to wait, but just asked is it okay to order at the til or is it online (shop online displayed on coffee boards) and felt the response was quite short, but I understand the pressures of being the only person serving. However, when it came to placing my order I felt rushed, and asked to eat in, yet order was put all into takeout bags and cups. Unfortunately felt as though custom was not so wanted and would think twice about going back to this branch.

Very Enjoyable Place to eat

The staff are always very efficient, hard working and courteous. The selection of cakes and pastries, which are made on site, are delicious and very consistent. We visit regularly and as the Woodbridge site is very popular, it is always disappointing when they are full.

Canterbury Shop - The Cornish Bakery

Canterbury ShopFirstly, we chose to eat in but were told that there are no plates due to the dishwasher not working! Secondly, the toilet lid was broken and the toilet paper was resting in the sink!Thirdly, we commented to the lady behind thee counter only to be told that we had been given a discount on the food and drink (takeaway price). And, we could always "go somewhere else" which if we hadn't already paid we would have done.The sausage rolls were lovely. We cleared our own table! It's such a shame this place has dropped to this standard.
