Parsons Bakery - Malvern Hills

On new yrs eve me and my good lady decided to have a mooch around Malvern and enjoy our day. We decided we wanted a honk of pastry to make life generally better and to make a mess of our faces. We had various sweet and savoury pastries from parsons. The young girl working was lovely, chatting with us both despite being in since 7 and looked tired. I ate various different pastries then me and my good lady tucked into a custard slice a piece. As I stood looking at the Abby with the bakery infront of me I started to laugh. Now I’m a fat f£&ker but I’ve never had a cake be so nice it made me laugh. My good lady asked why I was laughing, I said it’s the custard slice!!! I was so happy with it I started to chuckle. I never thought I’d laugh at a piece of cake!!!! Well done parsons bakery!!! It’s a first for me that I giggled like a little school girl at a piece of cake. Definitely use you again

Nice cakes and decent coffee. There are a few seats inside, so if you fancy a break whilst wandering around Malvern, worth popping into this bakery as prices are good value.

We were in Malvern for 4 days and on 3 of them had bacon doorstop sandwiches at Parsons for breakfast. Really thick bread and plenty of lean bacon with ketchup. Absolute bargain at £2.50 a go and even better when you include a decent coffee for £3.25. No queueing, great service, great value.

We ordered bacon and sausage baguettes which would have been quite nice had they not used really cheap sausages, also, the bacon was super dry. The bacon and cheese wrap was huge but also awful tasting, it was really dry, they usually have tomato in and this one didnt and the 'flaky puff pastry ' was really thick. Also ordered was a lardy cake, a firm favourite of mine, this one was crunchy on the top and really dry and poorly constructed. On the plus side, my son had 'Australian Crunch ' which he said was absolutely beautiful. I would not recommend and I will not be returning.

My wife and I are staying at the abbey camp site and fancied Danish pastries and croissants for Sunday breakfast. As parsons bakery opens at 10am on a Sunday I waited until approx 9.45 and set off to buy some, which we were really looking forward to. At 10am the bakery promptly opened and I was told that the Danish pastries hadn’t been iced yet, and the crossqnts were just about to go in the oven, which would take approx 20 mins. Undeterred I waited 20 mins and whilst the croissants were ready, the Danish pastries would be quite a while longer, so I went next door to carousel to buy some. Very disappointing
