Visited here today. I would have taken pics but it was to delicious to wait!! I had the bakewell tart and it was so moist and tasty, probably the best iv ever had! My boyfriend had the brownie and said it was the nicest brownie he's had! In the shop we was told the lady got up at like 4am every morning to bake, and we don't disbelieve that. Will defo revisit if ever in skipton again....

We went to skipton for the weekend and called into the bakery. We had corned beef pastie and Cornish pasty, we also had chocolate brownie and currant slice. We loved them that much we went back before setting off home for more. 5 star bakers, gutted there isn’t one in Leeds.

This is THE BEST bakery with gorgeous food prepared by terrific folks! I had a delicious hot melty cranberry and brie panini. My friend had pie and peas and said it was completely perfect. I could see he was… enjoying every bite. My loaf of bread was kindly sliced right in the bakery and is a yummy present to myself for toast and sandwiches. And Craven Bakery make THE TOP gingerbread men I’ve ever tasted — and I’ve had many since I’m ginger crazy. Spicy and crunchy. Plus, they have gingerbread PIGS! Hot chocolate, tea, and coffee all hot hot hot and perfect. The staff

I work for transdev, and whenever we have a while to wait in Skipton it is always nice to pop round. Food is great, reasonable pricing, friendly staff and a highlight of working in Skipton 😊

My favourite shop in skipton. Traditional bakery with delicious cakes and pies. Our personal favourite is the meat and potato pie followed by bakewell slice. Very friendly staff.

I phoned the bakery to ask if they were offering delivery as I wanted to send a box of goodies to a NHS nurse friend in skipton. They were able to put together a mix of sweet and savoury items and deliver the item in just a few hours! The selection looked amazing and I’m very pleased with the service, especially in the current circumstances. Thank you!

An incredibly generous local business who have supported our school PTA by donating their delicious bread rolls to our school BBQ & summer fair for several years.
Bread rolls were fab. Thanks for being such a generous supporter of local good causes 😊
