Reviews of Kaikoura Bakery

e. a.

Walked in here expecting a normal kiwi bakery… until my mum brought out the sandwiches… I was super impressed by the home made bread (you can tell by the lovely chewy crusts). Also- this might be a hot take- but the chocolate eclair was better than I’ve had at the chocolate eclair shop in Ohakune. Not too sweet and with real cream 😋 What a lovely spot for lunch :))

D. L.

Stopped at the bakery for a selection of their products including freshly made gluten free sandwich, creamed doughnut and savoury treats. 4 adults and we couldn't fault the service or food.

B. C.

On the main road with parking usually out front, this is a decent bakery that's easy to get to. Has table and chairs out the front, and a rest room out back if you need it. They often do deals on yesterday's food which always taste pretty good to me.

S. C.

Service was fantastic! Very friendly staff. Pies are deeelish! Everything looked tasty also reasonably priced

R. T.

They hav the best curry chicken salad rolls, can't buy them anywhere else absolutely amazingly delicious!!!!! 10/10

H. W.

Food is well worth the stop. Get pies hot or cold to take away

A variety of yummy baked goodies.

r. b.

Decent pies, definitely get the potato top. Filling a little bland, and would like to see more of it too, especially considering the price.

D. &. C.

Very friendly staff & great service. They had a good range of sweet treats & buns etc. We got the sausage rolls but we really can't recommend them. The filling was pasty & the flavour not meaty at all. Hopefully it was just the sausage rolls on the day 🙂 & that other days they are better.

M. W.

The place to get great pies and yummy saltana scones and get re-eneegized for another hard day's surfing in the world class point breaks of Kaikoura.

J. c.

Very friendly young gentleman serving at the counter. Very open and honest staff member, recommend some lovely sweet buns with currents etc in. He said my husband and I would be able to eat these without butter...he was right...they tasted awesome and they were presented well in sight of all customers coming into the bakery.

Always a great place to visit,lovely food plenty to choose from, friendly staff

w. t.

This is a must in kaikoura the bakery is a 10 plus opens at 3 am in the morning on the main road . Service is fast and quick Thanks team

Loved the steak and mushroom pie, you can actually taste the ingredients -very fresh! Also I never liked carrot cake but I liked the carrot cake here! I stop over whenever I can!👍

R. S. C.

So many delicious choices here, and the coffee is good. Loved the seafood roll which was packed with seafood at just $5.80.

Good food best mince&cheese

T. C.

Went here twice(!) today. Love this place. Coffee was good. Sandwiches were good. Sweets were good. Staff were friendly. Seagulls outside were angry we didn't feed them... Only shame was when we came back in the afternoon they were out of a few treats, but that just shows how popular this place is :)

D. P.

Gorgeous array of baked goods and savouries, highly recommend the Custard pie

B. 8.

Great bakery, great food, very popular which confirms this. Off street parking available.

K. W.

No time to stop for food. But wait. Park on the side of the road and buy a fantastic pie and get going again. Instant food. Instant pick me up. Go again.

L. A.

Cinnamon oysters took me back 50 yrs beautiful

R. M.

Reasonably pricey, but food is good. Pleasant staff

J. B.

Popped in to the Kaikoura Bakery just now for the first time and man oh man, it was delicious. The young chap working this afternoon was super friendly and patient with our indecisiveness. The marmite and cheese scroll was the best I have ever had!!

E. G.

Not up to its usual standard. Microwave d sausage rolls? Are there new owners?

B. K.

Fabulous food, the mountain top pies are famous! Gluten free products available. Restrooms on site

P. N.

Nice clean bakery with good fresh backed food. Try their cheesy rolls they are to die for.

K. B.

the nicest sausage roll I've ever tasted.Hubby was raving about his steak pie.

A. G.

Wide range of bakery items that are tasty

p. t.

Well presented food selection. Both cabinet and open shelf selections inviting and good descriptions. Fresh daily made products, fully stocked. Quality the same on second visit . Staff excellent knowledge and friendly manner. Used real butter on scones.

M. S.

Popular place. We got pies, a veg sandwich & chelsea buns. Wasn't life changing by any means, but filled the gap before getting back on the road. A bit pricey for a kiwi bakery, but it is Kaikoura so, expected. Picnic tables out front to eat & get going.

Great stopover enroute to Christchurch! They have a massive selection of small goodies both sweet and savoury and have amazing cream doughnuts too! Very pleasant & happy staff as well. They seem to enjoy what they are doing :) Plus everything is made on site!

N. W.

Average pies. Top pastry not very flakey/puff flavour a bit lacking bottom a bit anemic. Good stake though.

J. A.

Pie and donut very nice. Friendly staff. Found floor bit slippery though and would have to be very careful if wet.

J. “. W.

Nice experience. Brought a bacon & egg pie and a chocolate cream bun along with a mochachino hot drink. The pie was very tasty apart from the unbroken yolk. The bread for the cream bun was super soft and fresh, whipped cream and chocolate icing were the perfect proportions Staff were nice and friendly. Outdoor seating was available but it was still wet from the frost. Off street parking is right beside the front entrance. Toilet facilities are available

G. M.

Mountain Top pies are delicious!

Fabulous food but too popular. We had trouble getting in and making it to the counter was a mission and this was only 11.30am. Maybe they need a bigger shop.

B. c.

Amazing service and great food, had a friend lock their keys in the car and they helped tremendously, 10/10 great people, would reccomend.

T. G.

Great pies, sandwiches and donuts! Perfect place to stop and grab lunch for the whole family with picnic tables outside and fast service even though it was really busy!!!

S. F.

Friendly beautiful staff. The pies are awesome and those sausage rolls omgoodness they are amazing to. There freshly made daily bread is also tops. Def worth a visit. Great food all round. Great service. 🤗

Awesome Pies and friendly staff make this a "must stop" on your trip through Kaikoura

T. L.

Big beef sandwich looked good in the cabinet but was all slop. Runny mayo, wet lettuce, watery tomato. All the stuff seemed to be on top of the roll to look good rather than inside the roll to stop it falling out all over your shirt! Also, grated cheese in a sandwich? Slices people, slices! Grated cheese with watery mayo is going to end up on clothing, I have proved this to be true. Having said all the above it tasted good, although I do now need to wash my shirt.

A. M. P.

Very convenient and easy to get in/park outside. The pastries, pies and sandwiches are nice but a bit pricey. Would recommend to someone who's on the go and needs something quick.

T. D.

We had been waiting this day to revisit the Bakery. We had scones coffee and Danish pastry. Very nice. Service was good. We were there around 7am and plenty of hungry customers. Will be back again.

really great takeaway food

J. N.

Very helpful and friendly staff. Prices really great and willing to just sell a couple of buns out of the bigger bag..

A. W.

Chicken Pie was hot n crisy. Got a loaf of freshly baked brown bread it was great A Sour Dough option would be good if they could.

J. J.

The best bakery and a must visit if you're in Kaikoura. Always very friendly service too.

A. S.

Really good stuff!!! Ask for a toastie and coffee needs extra shot :)

F. A.

Great food,definitely be back. Really disappointed theres no rubbish bins when u bag everything.

M. S.

Great bakery - one of the best custard slices I’ve ever had! Vegetarian pie was 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼 so clean and so glad we came here!

Food good but the prices are over the top. Used to be great food and reasonable prices. I don't think I would be bothered going back

l. c.

Always great food never disappoints and the best bacon and egg pie

Great food great service

Tasty cream donut and custard tart and delicious coffee.

Love this bakery highly recommend the cinnamon doughnut service is excellent as well

Bloody amazing as always gorgeous food and the gingerbread whale and meringue creatures let me revisit my childhood so thank you x

P. W.

Yummy food. Fast friendly staff. Always a go to when visiting ❤️

This place was amazing, the misses n I were dropping by from Christchurch and she has been going on to come here n I tell you it is reallyyyyy worth it, the staff was amazing we went on the day we arrived to check it out and try some pies, ended up having a great chat with the young guy there n he was such a good guy to talk to giving us amazing conversation and helping us decide what to eat, today went again for a second time before leaving kaikoura and it was really busy but they came through with quick customer service and once again that guy was there with a huge smile on his face to see us come back and yet another good convo :) (give this guy a pay rise)

M. F.

What a great place to stop for a break and a well earned coffee after negotiating the winding Kaikoura coastal line. Kaikoura Bakery is one of the businesses in Kaikoura that has taken the demise of the earthquake and run with it. Parked in the business district of Kaik, it serves the best coffee and cakes along the Highway 1 expedition between Picton and Christchurch. And the coffee is not too hot either! They know how to make them. The Staff are all polite and patient with the kids when they are deciding which colour donut to have. Make sure you try their selection of cream donuts, amazing!

D. B.

Great bakery will be stopping there again on the way home

t. s.

Nice staff and great food, also has toilet facilities.

The best shortbread ever!!!!

m. m.

Been there long as I can remember! Always supplying good quality bakery goods for hungry bellies. I'd recommend it.

Excellent food, clearly local and well made.

The friendliness of this bakery is awesome, has such a friendly atmosphere and staff who are willing to serve you with smiles.. all types of food..must do stop in kaikoura

I've generally found this a good option for a quick feed while driving through Kaikoura. Pies, sandwiches, filled rolls, slices all ok. Haven't tried their coffee or loaves of bread.

Very good bakery excellent selection wonderful service good parking

E. M.

Great Bakery with Fantastic food, always stop here if I'm in Kaikoura or passing through. Try the Pepper Steak Pie or the Chelsea Buns. Yummy

B. A.

The staff are lovely! Left my phone in the ladies bathroom, nearly closing time and continued on my trip to Christchurch. Realised it was missing about 30 minutes down the road. Phoned them and they said they'd wait for me to return and collect! ❤ Before all that though, I definitely recommend the chicken and avocado sandwiches and yoyos! Thanks Kaikoura bakery, your service with a smile was above and beyond and your food deeelish!

Delicious gingerbread!!! Stop everytime we go through kaikoura

R. M.

A great place to stop and have a feed on the way through to chch or blenheim. Amazingly good food and you can tell it's been baked with care.

It's a good kiwi style bakery with a little more range of products than most. Everything I've had from them has been top notch.

Coffee not espresso but ok. Apple shortcake wonderful

A. K.

Food was good though a bit pricey unless the Sth Is food is a bit dearer.

Cool bakery but the Sammy lacked sauce

K. S.

Very expensive. Nice sandwiches, kids didn't like their sausage rolls. Very limited seating. Toilets are a plus.

L. F.

Great pies, nice selection of pastries and cakes.

S. B.

The food in in was so good. Great place to great lunch

B. K. (.

Good pies, it's a shame that the sausage roll was disgusting. It had more bread in the filling than meat, wasted money. Still a good pie.

A. E.

Tasty food and friendly service for busy travellers. Well worth a stop.
