Beach Road Bakehouse

About this place

A friendly, small-batch bakery just a short stroll from St Bees beach, Beach Road Bakehouse turns out fresh loaves, pastries and sweet bakes the old-fashioned way—slowly and by hand. Expect crusty sourdough, classic tin loaves, morning goods (croissants, pains au chocolat, cinnamon buns), crowd-pleasing traybakes, and a changing selection of savouries. Pair it with a proper coffee or hot chocolate, then head for the sand or the clifftop path to St Bees Head.
