Located centrally within the town, Marchbanks is a highly reputable source of items such as white and brown bread, pastries and cakes that are all created close to the premises. The shop doubles as a tearoom, where you can have your cake and eat it with a cup of tea or coffee if you require. The staff are always friendly and approachable to your needs. Be warned though, their produce sells very quickly so it is well worth placing an order well in advance.

They were very busy and their display case was filled with lots of delicious looking premium pastries, cookies, little pies, breads and so much more. The staff was super friendly and made our visit even more enjoyable. We purchased a few bars, cookies, hand pies and some scones. The prices were very reasonable. Every item was super fresh and extremely tasty. The cream filling in the pies was super creamy and rich. The filled cookies were amazing and I wished that I had more. The bars were irresistible and loaded with fresh fruits.

But we all have *those* days, don't we (and they're usually Thursdays). The type of day where you fall out of bed late, there's nothing in, and you dash out of the door unfed and unprepared. Kelly's bakery is my saviour for these kind of days. Not only do I pass it on my way to work - so no further delays - but I can also get a breakfast butty, a filled roll for my lunch, a sweet treat (for the extra Thursday-ish Thursdays) and still have change from a fiver! My personal favourite is the chicken mayo salad roll - filled to the brim, there's greenery in there so it's obviously healthy, freshly made and only £1.40. So if you're dashing past here, do take a minute to swing in and get yourself something to eat - I promise you that Thursdays* are easier to handle with a happy belly. *bakery also available on other days

I could talk about this place all day. Highly recommended!!!

When I was growing up we always visited this local bakery for sandwiches, pies and cakes. They…read morereally are gorgeous. The bakery has been on Central Avenue for years and everyone goes here for dinner hence it can get really busy with long queues. My favourite sandwich has to be the cheese and onion, but I also really like the fresh salad ones aswell. The bread is always really fresh and everything is made on the premises. The prices are incredibly reasonable and can start at around 70p for their basic sandwich. This is brilliant as they are a lot fresher and nicer than pre pack sandwiches you can get in other shops. They are also renowned for their pies and can sell out quite quickly. The shop is quite small and there is loads of parking out the front. The staff are really friendly and know everyone as they have worked here for years.
