Been eating in The Thoughtful Bread Company since the cafe opened. I've always found it frendly with good service which can be a little slow when very busy - but the food is well worth the wait. Some of the best scrambled eggs and bacon sandwich around. Having said that we've tried much of the menu and the fresh bakes and it's all good.
Wonderful place to eat and meet. Delicious bread and cakes baked onsite. Food is ethically and locally sourced. Bread making course well paced and great for beginners, and those more advanced - taught by owner and baker Duncan, and wonderful refreshments throughout. Excellent welcome and service by the staff. We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Thoughtful Bread.
Thank you very much Thoughtful Bakery! The owner is very friendly, attentive and accommodating. Really made us feel welcome and added to our experience during our visit on a Friday evening. They were serving cocktails and light bites, along with the baked goods and pastries on the counter. The food and drinks were lovely, with amazing staff to match. If you’re in Bath then I highly recommend visiting!
Amazing day at thoughtful bakery. We were on a sourdough course and came home laiden with goods; amazingly well fed with pastries to start, a beautiful lunch and then cakes. The staff were so helpful and kind. The course was very thorough and Duncan was patient and full of very useful tips and hints. Can't wait to put it all to the test.
Our second course at thoughtful bakery was a delight. Sourdough last time and croissants this time. The teachers were so patient and full of useful hints and tips. The added bonus of lovely tea, coffee, an amazing lunch really made it quite exceptional. The teacher to student ratio was very high which gave it a very personal feel. 5 stars just are not enough!
I seriously regret only getting to this place on my last day in Bath. What a treasure. Friendly folks purvey top notch sourdough bread and a variety of incredible baked goods and cooked food as well. The sausage roll and so-called vegetarian sausage roll were excellent, with quality pastry encasing something more akin to country style pate than sausage. So delicious.
And for breakfast I had three scrambled eggs over bread slathered with dripping butter. The eggs were good, but the best part was eating that bread after the eggs had been consumed.
A brilliant cafe and great venue in the heart of Bath which we've used to host several of our charity events. The atmosphere, staff and food is excellent and we'll be running plenty more events at the bakery in the future. We would highly recommend :)
Fantastic lunch was had by all and we felt very lucky to have found such a fantastic place for an easy, casual lunch washed down with Prosecco in the afternoon sun! Fish was beautifully cooked and tasted so fresh. Baked goods were an amazing treat as I dont usually get dessert, but glad for it as they were so well made. We loved also that all the baked goods are made in-house (including the ice-cream!) All dietary requirements were happily met. Personally I loved how seasonal my dish felt, with the Mackerel on rye croute and the addition of pickled Loganberries, Redcurrants and fermented Mirabelle plums. Highly recommend for those that particularly seek out restaurants with an ethos to providing local, sustainable, transparent food fare. Great work Thoughtful Bakery!
Chose this bakery based on the fact that it’s local and everything is made in house. What a score! Perfect peaches and mascarpone cruffin and delicious breakfast sandwich with hash browns. Don’t miss the house made ketchup and caramel latte. Friendly service, fun atmosphere, top notch experience all the way around.
Delightful cafe, with delicious cakes😋 Popped in after a stroll around Bath. We had the banana and pecan, cheesecake and double chocolate brownie. All three were super, not a crumb left! The drinks, coffee and chai latte were equally good. Very friendly staff and left refreshed for the rest of our walk.
I use to live in Bath but moved to London six years ago, I went back for a day visit last week and was surprised of the number of new cafe there. I decided to go and try Thoughtful bakery plus some other places and I don’t regret my choice, their staff are so kind and nice like how it is every where in Bath which I really miss.I bought some cakes, white sourdough and donuts, they were all good but the donuts is the best one I’ve ever had, it was the raspberry and pistachio one. The only thing that makes me sad is this place wasn’t there when I used to live here . I’m sure I will come back here again next time when I’m going to visit Bath
This is one of my favourite bakery shop that sell yummy croque monsieur. I assumed that they used brioche loaf and sliced them really thick which gives a soft crumbs and crispy crust after baking or grilling the sandwiches. The top was filled with gooey Gruyère cheese which was my favourite. If you love Croque Monsieur as much as I do, you have have to try it out here!
Delicious vegan bap served here or for takeaway. They also have few vegan desserts that look so delicious. Really wish they would have vegan croissants or other pastries.
