The best source for all your bread cakes!…read more I adore Gayton's bread and if I cannot find any in my local shops I always visit the bakery shop where the staff are always cheerful, happy to see you and tempt me into buying some of their excellent cakes!

I have travelled all over the world and yet Gayton's have the best bread I have ever tasted. Their…read moreGranary Loaf is to die for. If you haven't tried their products yet you haven't lived. Well worth a drive up to the Bakery as the staff are always welcoming and cheerful. Although you always leave with more than you had planned. lol.

Not a bad place to sit and have a sticky bun or two (or six if you are a fatty like me), and watch…read morethe world go by. Reasonably large seating area and decent quality food. The queues can get quite bad at lunch time and on a saturday but they are fairly efficient at getting through them. I used to work near here and would swear by their soup and a roll for lunch - really nice on a cold day. The prices are very good - and their pizza baguettes are yummy. I can also recommend the Pecan slices mmmm. I am getting peckish now thinking about it all. I think the key is that all the stuff seems fresh - I have never had one of those'dog-eared' and 'sweaty' day-old sandwich crisis moments in here. I have however had bad experiences in here in the past with staff being quite rude, I think sometimes they just buckle under the pressure when its busy. But since the management changed (think a bit less battle axe and a bit more mumsy), the staff seem alot happier and the atmosphere is pleasant. Its not a modern or exciting place as far as theme or decor go - but it does its job. They also do not rush you for the table - which is great if you have got kids who are slower eaters. No baby change facilities - but the centre toilets are literally 30 seconds away and their's are top notch.

BAD! UNCLEAN and unhygenic. poor staffread more

Jackie's Cake Kitchen has been a part of Tamworth for years, and when anyone mentions getting a…read morecake done for special events, the Cake Kitchen comes up. Unfortunately, this is not a comfortable place to be, it's a cramped, dimly-lit little shop on a main road with only very limited street parking. The prices are exhorbitant. Be prepared to sell the child whose birthday you are celebrating, to prepare for the cake. I understand that celebration cakes (wedding and similar) involve a great deal of artistic endeavor and that the supplies are very niche, but these are the prices I'd expect from a London cake house, not a small Tamworth dingy shop. On top of that, the cough "artistic endeavor" involved in these cakes is, er...interesting. The designs are all pretty poor, and the execution of designs brought in seems amateurish at best. I had better luck hiring an acquaintance who dabbled in her spare time and did a cake that people complimented more than my wedding dress!

Got no complaints whatsoever, people are moaning about the cake prices (which I didn't believe were…read morethat expensive) but what do you expect having a cake made specifically for you, from scratch. We ordered a cake for our sons 5th birthday and it was one of the highlights of the day. As well as looking awesome and getting our order down to a T, the actual cake tasted lovely. Highly recommended!

From the owner: Tamworth's newest independent coffee shop…read more After a 2.5 month refit and under NEW management "Middleton's Courtyard Café" is now The Bake180 coffee shop, with a 5 star hygiene rating. We have refitted with some nostalgic pieces and more modern items so there really is something for everyone. Open 7 days a week. Serving breakfasts, light lunches, afternoon teas and Gentleman's teas! Nestled in the courtyard with many other independent businesses, and the RSPB on site as well as the historical Middleton Hall. A beautiful place to visit.
