Reviews of Fancy Bakery

A. J.

I can't count how many times I've been here. My parents go here at least once a week and we go as a family whenever I'm back. It's a joy to eat anything that is made with love and passion. You can really tell the owners of Fancy bakery have a passion for baking and food. Their cakes are delicious, they always source seasonal local produce which means that there's always something new to try. (e.g. Rhubarb cake and crumble where the rhubarb was organic and sourced in Bedfordshire when in season). The owners and all the staff they have are delightful and friendly to all customers. The person who grows the rhubarb is celiac so Fancy bakery made gluten-free rhubarb muffins to ensure they could enjoy some of the products made with their harvest. Hearing stories like that whilst enjoying the gluten-free Rhubarb muffin goes to show the genuine community feel that comes with this place. It's rare and I love to see it! Their toasted sandwiches are surprisingly filling with of course, sourdough bread baked in house. Everything is made from quality ingredients and you can really taste that in the produce. I couldn't recommend this place enough, if I lived locally I would be buying my bread from them weekly, too.

Been several times before writing this review just to make sure I wasn’t catching them on an off-day. The cakes are fantastic, there is no denying they are the best in the area. Service is cold and feels a bit like you’re inconveniencing them by being there. For that reason alone, I get take out and only get a slice of cake instead of sitting down and having a coffee and cake and maybe a sandwich. Sombre mood , superb cakes

A. D.

Tables on the outside and 1 I side to enjoy the wide selection of cakes here. A professional, clean and friendly establishment with really good prices.

M. M.

Lovely little cafe with fresh cake bakery out the back. Cakes look superb upon entry, Chorizo and Emmental toastie with pickled cucumber was amazing and the coffee is proper quality coffee. Staff were really nice. Recommended.

L. P.

Lovely little shop tucked away selling absolutely amazing homemade cakes etc You can takeaway or eat in. Worth a visit

P. N.

Visited for the first time yesterday. Excellent coffee and hot chocolate. The cakes were also extremely good. My wife, who can give a cold eye to inferior buttercream, pronounced it excellent on the coffee and walnut. Blueberry and lime cake and lemon, almond and polenta were also top-notch. The owner seems a talented, hard-working and pleasant woman. We will definitely return here.

J. S.

Been a regular for nearly 2 years! Absolute gem of a place and run by the loveliest owner and staff! Couldn’t recommend fancy bakery more!!

P. C.

Haven't visited Fancy Bakery in a while and kicked myself why I haven't! Delighted with choice of bakes and savouries. Just enough on menu for alternative choosing and not too much to boggle your brain trying to decide. 🤔😊. Nice decor and sitting arrangement with a homely feel and ambiance.

P. P.

On paper, this cafe sounds like a dream come true. We decided to go check it out. The place is a little dark which gives it a weird atmosphere. Like you're at your relatives, you know the ones that you see every now and then, thinking you like them but in fact you just wanna get out and leave. It felt like that. The service was not very welcoming and just a tad cold, maybe we caught the place on a bad day, don't know. We won't come back sadly. The cakes are really nice, so if you want to try and get some cake to take out or even order some cake for a party, I would really recommend this place.

D. E.

Wow! What a find! Best cakes in Bedford. The owner bakes cakes with passion and you can taste it. Eat-in or takeaway, don't miss out. Definitely will go again.

m. b.

Really like this bakery and it's very close by, but sadly its shut on my day off work (Monday) so haven't been in a very long time 😩😩

A. W.

Very helpful. Completed a cake order and decorated at short notice which tasted great. Plus their cinnamon buns are stunning. Will drop by for more.

M. M.

I went to Fancy Bakery in my first time to try it out 09.02.2022, l ordered chocolate cake to takeway. The lady was very friendly and talkative. I will go again.

S.

My favourite place to go when I come to Bedford. Lovely baked goods including breakfast and lunch items, and a relaxing atmosphere. Everything is fresh so even though some reviews say it's overpriced, you pay for quality. I've also ordered a cake before for a party and there was good communication and easy to collect on the day!

J. W.

Absolutely fantastic cakes and savories coffee is also really good. Staff are very helpful.

M. S.

Such a gem in the area. I sometimes go to the neighbourhood for work and knowing this is here perks me up. Lovely coffee and really delicious, unusual bakes.

A. B.

Great place for a light lunch! Friendly service, good coffee & a great light lunch! Will be visiting again

D. D.

4 stars only because Covid restrictions prevent use of the café booths; seating (at the moment) is outside only. Very friendly staff, lovely coffee and incredible nibbles. What's not to like?! Can't wait to visit once restrictions are lifted to make the most of this hidden gem.

E. S.

Wonderful cakes etc there hasn't been anything I have tried that I haven't liked!

J. D.

Fantastic cakes and brownies. There always a queue outside. Menu changes regularly. But do try the ginger cake, the Basque cheesecake and the classic brownie. And follow on Instagram to see everything being made.

N. C.

We love going to Fancy when we feel like a treat. The cakes they serve are baked in-store and are just delicious. If you want a light bite to eat then this is great place. Check out their Instagram page and you're sure to feel hungry!

N. b.

Love the bread and cakes, definitely a must go!

R. E.

Really lovely place for tea & cake or a light lunch. Good selection of food & vegetarians & gluten free etc. seem to be well covered. Quirky, mis-matching China tea cups - very lovely. Garden out back. Nice meeting place. Bigger than it looks from the outside!

A. S.

Great coffee and cakes. Cinnamon twirl is wonderful.

L. B.

We always try to fit in visiting this cafe for a toastie, cake and coffee when we are in the Bedford area. They offer a good selection of sandwiches/toasties on quality bread (not basic white sliced as you get in many places) and lovely home made cakes, including some for people with dietary restrictions. The staff are very welcoming and friendly and we always enjoy our visits here.

S. E.

Such a lovely little bakery. A great place for a catch up with a friend or to meet a client. Free WiFi, around 9 tables in all, of varying sizes. Beautiful and unusual cakes and great coffee. Parking can be tricky.

M. S.

An absolute delight, working my way through the selection over a period of time and everything is exceptional. Worth travelling to for a treat, you will not be disappointed

L. f.

Really friendly staff who made great recommendations. The food was delicious! Superb quality. Would highly recommend.

K. M.

There are lots of things served here in a lovely ambience. But basically for me it's all about the cakes. And what cakes! Saffron the proprietor makes vegan choices and options for those with intolerances too.
