The Bakery Delicatessen - East Lindsey

I stopped by this restaurant after being drawn in by the enticing window display, and I have to say, the Belgian Buns and cherry flapjack were absolutely divine - the best cakes I have ever had. I was so impressed that I cycled all the way from near Birmingham just to have another one on my return visit.

While on vacation, I walked past this bakery and was impressed by their display of cakes, so I decided to buy an Eccles cake and a jam Viennese slice. The cost was over £4 for both cakes, which seemed a bit steep, but I was hopeful they would be delicious. Unfortunately, I was left disappointed. The Eccles cake was mostly dense pastry with very little fruit filling, and the jam slice was stale and dry with tasteless jam. I was not impressed and would not be likely to visit again. Looks can definitely be deceiving.

This restaurant is one of those places that catches your eye as you walk by. I'm not a fan of desserts, but my husband is. We ended up buying two cakes for him, and he said they were delicious. I tried the Lincoln Savoury (a large scotch egg type dish), which was also amazing. The food, service, and prices were all great, making it worth the wait in line.

What a gem of a place. The window is full of sweet delights and the queue outside encouraging. We purchased sausage rolls, hazelnut brownie and millionaire shortcake. All delicious! Will definitely be visiting again and will try the deli section next time

Fabulous deli and the reviews show it. Sadly lacking in gluten free sandwiches.....however did you know they will make up salad boxes filled with whatever you want from the deli counter.....no? Me neither. So I had one. Amazing. Can't recommend it enough. I could probably eat a whole tub of their coleslaw all to myself.
