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.

So many amazing old school bakes here and everything is SUPERSIZED! I have to avoid egg and dairy and there were three options for me on this occasion. There are gluten free options but the owner is clear that whilst precautions are in place, the foods are all prepared in the same kitchen. Always a great coffee and lovely friendly staff too. It's been a while since I've been back to Fancy and it's not going to be too long before I go back again.
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.
A world class bakery. I rarely give a 5 star review but this bakery is putting out some of the best baked goods I have ever tasted. I’ve eaten at the most expensive, world famous patisseries and this is the best I’ve ever had. The banoffee pie was the best. I’d eat it every day if I lived here. The macaroon was also amazing. I’ve had 5 items and will eventually try everything. Please never take off the banoffee pie. It’s amazing.

Lovely place. Great flat white, wonderful cinnamon bun.
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.
Great cakes, fantastic coffee, friendly staff. Have to give this the full 5 stars!
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
