Hallets The Bakers
Description
Nestled in the heart of the community, this bakery offers an enticing array of pastries, sandwiches, and cakes, drawing customers in with its inviting window displays. While many patrons rave about the traditional pasties and delectable treats, including the notable chicken tikka pasty, some experiences have been less than satisfactory. Complaints about dry sandwiches and disappointing pastries highlight variability in quality. Friendly staff receive high praise, yet occasional encounters with discourteous ownership have tarnished some visits. Despite these setbacks, the bakery remains a cherished local spot, particularly renowned for its delicious pasties and addictive Belgian buns, ensuring loyal customers keep returning.

A lovely looking bakery offering a wide range of hot cold pastries, sandwiches drinks plus some delicious looking cakes, I chose a Christmas rum and raisin chocolate truffle then ordered from the friendly lady behind the counter who said that they had come out amazingly well this year, unfortunately when I got back to my hotel room took a bite I found it far too warm soggy with absolutely no taste of rum, very disappointing really wish that I'd of chosen something else.
Absolutely fantastic shop the choices are immense and well laid out .and the staff are probably the best in the town .
Popped in here to get 'breakfast ' before going on the steam train to Dartmouth and so glad we did. The window is very inviting and the goods looked delicious so we just had to investigate further! My family ordered sausage rolls but I had to go for the Devon pasty (not the Devon Growler mind because that could feed a small army! . I used to live here, in Paignton, not the bakery, and I have always loved a pasty even though I haven 't lived here for years. What I didn 't realise though was that I haven 't had a true Devon pasty in all that time. As soon as I bit into it, it took me straight back to my youth and the memories of really tasty 'proper ' Devon pasties came flooding back. From the filling to the pastry every mouthful was delicious, and now I don 't think I can go back to eating the ones I have been over the last couple of decades because now I remember what they are supposed to taste like! Even my kids took a bite (just a small one; it was MY pasty and they were like wow . So thank you Halletts for taking me back to my youth and also for ruining other pasties forever!! We also bought cream cakes it was a large breakfast/lunch/tea and they were also amazing. BTW do you deliver?? :
Enjoyed some freshly cooked warm sausage rolls. Good value polite staff enjoyed the lovely smell walking by on a few occasions
