The Ashbourne Gingerbread Shop

We had iced fingers pots of tea. Nicely served tasty. Very friendly staff clean throughout. Virus protection observed to a good standard. Can recommend. Thank you.

We visited this cafe today and I couldn’t fault it. There were 6 of us and It was absolutely spot on. It came To £45 which I thought was very reasonable. Would definitely call in again.

Very disappointed. The staff weren't friendly and in fact soulless, there was no atmosphere and my sausage roll was less than average, served cold and plonked down in front of me. The Covid policing was done abruptly and unnecessarily. Not the same old place we enjoyed coming to for years. What a shame! Visualizza piatti

This restaurant used to be fantastic, but has significantly declined in quality. The food is still decent, but today we did not receive a portion of our order. The staff did not apologize properly, and they only noticed the mistake when we asked for the bill, despite there being only a few tables occupied. It's disappointing to say that we will not be returning to this restaurant.

The Ginger Bread shop is exactly what you expect of a traditional english bakery cake shop. Since COVID you obviously can’t sit inside as you where able to previously which is understandable. I can’t wait to be able to visit and sit in again. We are still more than happy to collect the fresh cream cakes and eat them in Ashbourne Park with a coffee from their also! You won’t find a nicer elephants foot cream cake!!!

I could write a long and tedious review on this place but I’ll Bullet point as it’s not worth my time Or effort rude staff run down surroundings dirty toilets expensive menu EXPENSIVE DRINKS! (85p for a carton of milkshake to take away £1.55 to drink in!! …. They’re 3 for £1 in Morrisons) food was mediocre at best advertise a roast in a roll (told It’s only Saturdays…… it doesn’t state this anywhere) Worst of all …. NO GINGERBREAD Visualizza piatti

The server was very rude and refused to serve the vol au vents warm. When it came time to pay, she overcharged me by 6.10. The bill should have been 12.30. As a visually impaired customer using a white cane, I was taken advantage of. When my husband returned from the restroom, he discovered that we were charged for items we never ordered. It was a disappointing experience and I urge the staff to treat customers with more kindness. This cafe has nothing to do with gingerbread and there was no welcoming atmosphere.

We stopped by this restaurant for some gingerbread to reminisce about the past. Unfortunately, it doesn't quite live up to the same standards as it did 40 years ago. I remember when they used to sell mostly gingerbread in boxes or smaller packets. The gingerbread still tastes the same, but now they only have a few shelves with gingerbread pixies for kids or small packs of round biscuits. The rest of the menu consists of typical bakery items. It seems that there isn't as much demand for top-notch gingerbread these days.

5 family members visited the cafe this week 2 of the 4 coffees came incorrectly firstly 3 sausage baps with stuffing and apple sauce were ordered 1 white 2 brown simple one would have thought but no. 2 white 1 brown delivered The lady did offer to change it but it didn’t go down well in the kitchen with a ‘ well that’s what they asked for ‘ so we could all hear Very unprofessional Roll changed no butter this time though) Never mind. None of us got the stuffing or apple sauce promised anyway at least no one felt left out) Quite disappointing really It used to be a really lovely tea room. Visualizza piatti
