Great little bakery that is a longstanding tradition on the Padstow waterfront strand…read more Traditional Cornish pasties are the big draw, with apparently award-winning pastry and lovely, moist potato and meat filling enriched with a dash of clotted cream. The chicken version also has leeks, while the beef seems to contain a root vegetable, either turnip or Swede, maybe? Regardless, they are both delicious. A friend tried the lamb and mint, reporting lovely flavor, but a bit of chewiness to the sparse meat tidbits, The Chough's treacle tart is very tasty, with bright flashes of lemon zest here and there to lighten the molasses top notes and sugary richness before it becomes overwhelming. The Bakewell tart is also very nice though it uses sliced almonds instead of the more traditional almond paste, which isn't to everyone's taste. Finally, we took some of the scones home to eat with piles of jam and clotted cream, and they proved up to the task, though otherwise unremarkable as scones always are.

The Chough offers a proper and tasty pasty. A Pasty is to baked goods what the egg and banana are…read moreto their respective food groups: they come with their own carrying case. And The Chough's pasties are made of the most wonderful fillings and crust, especially the rolled bit that you grab on to whilst eating out the center bit. If you find yourself in Padstow, go on, contribute to the local economy and sink your teeth around a real bit of British culinary history. God bless the Pasty. God bless The Chough.

Delicious Cornish pasties!!! For those who have never heard of Cornish pasties, they are basically…read moreoversized empanadas or baked pies filled with beef, potatoes and onions. Personally I prefer empanadas, but Barnecutt makes pretty darn delicious pasties with variety of fillings. According to my sister, it's supposedly the best local pasty shop. I tried a few different kinds, and my favorite was beef curry! Very fattening, but hey, everyone should be allowed to pig out while on vacation! Screw diet, viva carb!!!

One thing I am eternally grateful for is that there are very few Greggs in Cornwall. This means…read morethat proper bakeries like Barnecutt's are able to survive and thrive, and we can continue to enjoy decent food when we're out shopping. Barnecutt's is a great bakery serving a variety of hot food, bread and cakes, but what I really love is the pizza. For £1.50 you can get a decent sized slice of hot pizza. There's tomato, cheese & pineapple, pepperoni and vegetarian to choose from, all delicious. The base is really thick, sauce full of flavour and they don't skimp on the cheese. I cannot fault it. My only complaint is that you can't buy full pizzas. Like a lot of their hot snacks, they are served to you in a 3 sided box for easy street-eating and then wrapped in a paper bag. The staff are friendly and everything is well made, super tasty and good value for money. A word of warning for anyone hoping to visit the Liskeard bakery: get in quick before the lunch time rush or you might miss out on the good stuff! There aren't enough bakeries like this left in the UK and we need to support those we have left!
