The Old Village Bakery - Eden

Situate 10 miles from Penrith at the foot of Hartside popular with locals and visitors. Good selection of hit food and snacks with friendly staff.

We visited Melmerby bakery for coffee and cake. It's a great cafe with friendly service and nice decor, lots of seating inside and out. We had the Easter egg scotch egg and a caramel and chocolate tart, both very nice. It was quite busy for a Monday, will definitely be back.

It's okay nothing special. Cakes a bit boring. Toilets need a refurbish tap coming off sink.

We visited twice on our stay in Melmerby the first we just had coffee and on the second we had lunch which we could not fault, the liver pate was excellent.

The Full English breakfast was the best that we had eaten. We travel quite a lot and good,cooked to perfection , tasty food not laden with salty bacon or peppery sausage, is hard to find. Everything on our plate was just right and beleive me we cleaned the plate.The staff we lovely and attentive. Had a takeaway Cherry and Almond Scone from their bakery for later, with jam and cream.....didn't want to share it! We will be going back as soon as we can. Top notch
