Filbert's is fantastic! They have great speciality bread, pasties, flatbreads and deserts (just eaten a delicious peanut butter blondie). Always very impressed by their attention to flavour. Very friendly staff who are always happy to point out what is vegan.
If you haven't been before, definitely give them a go - you won't regret it!
Having tasted your Overnight White at The Storey the day before, we made a special trip to get some. Our son renamed it 'Crumpet Bread' because he thinks it looks (lots of holes and a brown crust), smells and tastes like crumpets! Love the fact your shop has an honest and raw feel...no frills just bread! Will be back for more of the cinnamon roll day croissants too �
Filberts is the best bakery around. Much joy comes from eating the delightful produce and even better, many items are dairy free! The chocolate cake is AMAZING and everything tastes so fresh and wonderful �
The best bread ever. I have just discovered the bread & butter pudding, bought and ate immediately! I can see why people get twitchy for it �
Just had the olive, sun dried tomatoe and cheese quiche... Gorgeous!!!
Really, really friendly service and such tasty pasties. Definitely not just your average cheese & onion pasty. Plus, on top of that, we were given a free chunk of bread for our 16mth old daughter - which she loved, thank you!
Recently moved to Lancaster from London and have been seeking out a proper bakery here. Finally found it! Had the great pleasure of dropping in this morning and chatting with the owner and just enjoyed the best croissant I've had in years. Fresh and warm as a summer breeze. A visit to Filbert's will definitely become a regular event from here on in. Little gem in Lancaster and good London vibes and chats
This bakery is outstanding! Their flatbreads are incredible, we love their sourdough bread and my son (age 3) is obsessed with their croissants!! Visiting is a special family outing for us! I will cherish these memories forever. Thank you!
I really enjoyed a taster session at my local WI meeting yesterday evening and bought a millers loaf. I then came into your shop today and bought one of your white loaves and a flat bread � yummy!! Your passion and enthusiasm is fantastic and your PROPER bread is delicious!!! �
Really enjoyed the recommended Bread n Butter Pudding today.
It was right moist and justified the double-bagging!! Lovely...
Delicious! Delightful! Wonderful yummy treats and friendly staff
love the vegan options (brownies, scones, cinnamon buns, etc.)!!
I cannot recommend this bakery more highly - not only on account of its wonderful baked goodies, but also because of the wonderful founder and her staff! It has been a delight to connect with this place; and I am grateful for what it brings to the Lancaster town!! Keep going strong! You really deserve all the success possible!!
The most beautiful baked goods ever! Tops the village bakery I went to in France on holiday last year by a jolly mile! Thank you!
Thank you so much for our beautiful gluten free birthday cake for our daughter's first birthday. It was very tasty and no one complained about it being GF! Xx
Amazing quiche yesterday, I don't normally like or buy quiche, but it looked so good, and tasted even better! Rhubarb Crumble cake was also awesome! Highly recommend :D
We are regulars at Filberts - always delicious baked goods but today was stupendous! Victoria sponge with cream and jam and cardamom bun with cream and jam. The overnight white was still warm when we got it home, delicious and we still have cinnamon buns for later! We love our high quality weekend treats from Filberts!

Filbert’s bakery was recommended by our friends, a French-Norwegian couple who would cycle 20miles (35kilometres) for its bread. Open from Wednesday to Saturday (check Google for store timings) we were told that they sell out most days by afternoon. Intrigued by the quest for good bread, we added this to our Lancaster trip checklist and crossed it off the moment we reached the town and immediately realised why they sell out so quickly.
The spiced Fruit bread and the Fig & fennel are among the finest breads we have had. The Cinnamon bun & Morecambe bun were flavourful as well. The overnight white is a normal bread but the croissant is flaky and just how its supposed to be. The quiche at the counter is worth a try as well.
As obvious, we ransacked the bakery and bought a lot of bread, till our hands were full. The breads can be frozen and they stay long. It can be a challenge & a workout in a way slicing the sourdough bread and fig & fennel bread once they are hard, but they do make excellent eggy bread/French toast/pain perdu.
Filbert’s is worth the miles and a good enough reason to change one’s itinerary and plan a trip to Lancaster on a Friday-Saturday rather than Sunday-Tuesday.
Lovely people, so friendly. Make delicious bread and pastries. I absolutely love their olive bread. I could nom the whole loaf in a few minutes...
Just got some delicious olive bread, warm from the oven. Got there just after 11. So tasty. Tempted to eat it all on the walk back. (14/04/21)
Got some different breads as well yesterday. Olive twist with goat's cheese and a flatbread with sundried tomatoes and goat's cheese. Very scrumptious (21/04/21)
Got two slices of delicious, moist Lemon and Coconut cake. Lovely with a nice cup of tea (16/10/21)
smells great, a working bakery, entering the store immediately relieved stress. ordered a chickpea pastie, a mushroom pastie and peanut butter blondie. Oh my, as a confused and lost West Country lad I'm glad i found this place. The pasties were confused, lost (in a good way) and absolutely gorgeous.
Excellent fresh bread. Often still warm when served. Recommend the fruit loaf.
This is hands down my favourite bakery. I live about 20 minutes north of Lancaster and I will gladly make a trip to Lancaster just to but some bread there. Their overnight white is just amazing!
Fantastic range of freshly baked breads. Very knowledgeable and friendly service. Their house sourdough is delicious and lots more to try, including daily specials.
Excellent place love all the different breads.
Wonderful.
Excellent customer service. A wide range of freshly baked bread with different ingredients. Delicious tasting buns and cakes. It is a shame I'm only passing through and cannot buy bread here on a daily basis
The best bakery in the North West.
The quiches are simply amazing
The family absolutely loved this gluten free bread, it went down a treat. We'll definitely back for more. Thank you.
Fantastic breads and pastries. Get there early!
Popped in today (26th) in the afternoon traveling up from Preston
Bought mill bread, mushroom quiche, a piece of fruit crumble, and plum and and almond cake
Excellent bakery, pleasant staff
Pastry in quiche is very good and as good a pastry as I make myself making pies
Famous bakery shop, nice people, good location, and tasty breads.
Filbert's is a very lovely bakery with bread just as wonderful as all those who work there.
I would especially recommend the Overnight White; for the past two years I've been buying it, it's never once disappointed me.
If you can get there before they run out, cinnamon rolls on Saturdays are brilliant as well.
I never leave reviews but I can’t help it with here. The staff are so lovely, and welcoming, they gave me samples of things they thought I would like and it felt really personal. The brownies and pastries are amazing!! I’ve lived in Lancaster for a year and wish I’d stumbled across them earlier. I will be a regular from now on x
Artisan bread baked daily, Wednesday to Saturday. Good selection and have not had a bad loaf yet.
Amazing bakery. Very friendly staff.. Gave us free samples as well. We tried sourdough bread, morcmbre bun and vegetarian pie.. All were equally delicious.
