Model Bakery - Carte

Great little, friendly, independent Bakery. Jamaican patty Cash only though, but there's a machine at the co op over the road.

The owner was extremely friendly. They strictly enforce a first come, first served policy so be prepared to wait your turn. The menu has limited options but everything is handmade. I will definitely be returning to this restaurant.

The owner was very friendly and answered questions about the history of the town. He has clearly lived life to the fullest having certificates lining his wall for marathon running, computer science, military service and more! The chicken and mushroom pasty was fresh and very tasty. Voir le carte

I recently tried the Kurdish pastie at this restaurant after seeing it featured on a TV show. The dough was fluffy and bread-like, similar to a bao bun rather than a traditional pastry. It was stuffed with delicious spiced minced meat, making it very filling and tasty. The owner was also very friendly. I highly recommend trying this dish if you are in the area.

Amazing home made pasties! Had the red thai curry one £2) and it was sooooo good. It's heartwarming to see the owner's achievements posted all over the shops. He is clearly proud of his job and work and is super friendly and knowledgable of the history of the town. Locals need the support as much as possible because of COVID and I'm happy to have dropped by Model Bakery!

Turned up on Thursday at 11am and they had sold out of the infamous pasties, so went today at 9.30qm and got one (well, three . Sat munching the ones we thought were the more mild, commented on how spicy they were for mild, then got home and tried the third and realised the obvious! For someone who is not a spicy food fan, I’m a convert. Will got back 100% when next in Blaenau. Voir le carte

This restaurant is absolutely amazing! We were regular customers during our stay in Blaenau Ffestiniog. Their pastries are perfect to take on a hike - even cold, they are delicious and filling. We recommend visiting and supporting them daily if possible. Arrive early to avoid missing out - we never arrived after 9AM. Thank you for the great service and delicious pastries every day!

I am really sad to write this review. I like to support local businesses particularly after this last year. However, I was sad to have not had any courtesy shown to me back. The owner was friendly but sadly sold me cakes that were stale. I took them home, they were were hard to touch. I went back to gently point this out but was told that they are fresh and I should've checked them before buying and leaving the shop and I wasn't getting my money back. He told me that he bakes the cakes and sells them over the next 3 days. If they are cut then of course they would dry out. I bought 7 pieces which at £2 is a small fortune. I was offered no alternative fresh products or my money but told it was...

We saw the bakery featured on a TV show and knew we had to visit and try the Kurdish pasties. We were not disappointed!! It was over the Easter weekend and we visited on Saturday but were too late as they were sold out. We asked if it would be open on Monday to which the response was no but he would be in and making a batch and if we let him know what we wanted and gave him a ring on the morning he would pop along and open for us. How can you refuse a kind offer like that. So we ordered a mild and a spicy and went off to enjoy our weekend. Monday came and we travelled up to the bakery, made the call and waited patiently for Kurmang to arrive. He is such a lovely, genuine man and you can see... Voir le carte
