The coffee, cake & doughnut was around £8+ which is a decent price considering 3 items.
The cake and coffee were good but the doughnut was dry and almost hard (most probably needs to be heated slightly). But the atmosphere, service and people were lovely.
The bus 95 stops in Salen, so it's worth stopping, grabbing a bite to eat, wander along and see the old abandoned wooden ships/large boats and then make your way to Tobermory (the gastronomy in Tobermory is expensive and isn't "cafe culture" cuisine)
I thought I’d try and capture a delightful Sunday morning brunch experience at a The Little Bespoke Bakery, accompanied by my darling wife, Gerlie.
Upon entering the premises, greeted by a delicate fusion of rustic allure and modern sophistication, the aesthetic appeal of the establishment awoke a sense of eager anticipation within us.
We were greeted by an ambiance of warmth and serenity. The gentle hum of cheerful conversations blended harmoniously with the intoxicating aroma of freshly baked delicacies, forming the backdrop to our Sunday brunch experience.
As we were gracefully ushered to our table by our server Elspeth, we surveyed the tasteful décor that exuded an air of unpretentious elegance. Soft hues intertwined with natural elements, providing a soothing backdrop that complemented the main attraction – an array of artfully displayed pastries and baked goods, mouthwatering to the extreme.
Elspeth, adorned with a radiant smile, took charge of our brunch desires, making recommendations with expert finesse. It was then that we truly understood the exceptional nature of this bespoke bakery.
As our orders arrived, we were struck by the immaculate presentation that adorned each plate. Meticulously arranged and visually captivating, it was evident that every dish was crafted with profound care. The first bite of our smashed avocado and halloumi open sandwich brought forth an explosion of flavour.
The highlight of our brunch experience undoubtedly resided within the realms of the bakery's signature pastries. Decadent cinnamon buns, and luscious scones were a testament to the bakery's dedication to quality ingredients and artisanal mastery. The perfect balance of sweet cake and spiced fruit loaf left us wanting more.
To complete our experience , our coffee, expertly brewed, proved to be the perfect companion to each bite. Its rich aroma and balanced flavour showcased the bakery's attentiveness to detail, resulting in exceptional taste and refinement.
In closing, our memorable Sunday morning brunch well exceeded our expectations. Should you find yourself travelling through Salen on Isle of Mull, do not miss the opportunity to immerse yourself in the delights found within this beautiful bakery.
We came in here for breakfast after getting off the early ferry and it turned out to be a great find. It’s a cosy and well decorated little place with a nice atmosphere . We all had the granola, which was a perfect balance of healthy and sweet as well as one of their home made scones and cinnamon scrolls. Both are a must if you come here (especially the lemon and blueberry scones) as they are freshly made and soft on the inside. The coffee was great too as well as their lunch-time sandwiches (which we came back for the next day). The service was a tad slow at times but in general it was still friendly and decent
