Ryders Home Made Bakery

Lovely lunch! Such a great find and wished I lived closer so could visit regularly! There was a great selection and the treats looked amazing. Portuguese tart was fantastic! Thanks

Absolutely worst gut buster I’ve ever tried. Bacon was rock solid nearly ripped my teeth out and the egg was so plastic and fried I wasn’t sure if they took it out their kids toy box

I am disappointed by the food quality at this renowned bakery in the area. The dishes were overly salty, overcooked, and expensive for their lack of quality. I was very dissatisfied and will not be returning. I am not overly picky, but I also don't want to risk salt poisoning from the meals here.

I was very disappointed when I visited the restaurant today and saw the festive food advertised on their board outside. However, I was told they were not serving it at that time, even though it was just after 11:30. As a result, we went to Gays Creamery instead. We were prepared to spend around £30, but it seems like the restaurant didn't want our business. Perhaps they need to consider a change in staff, as a woman came out and took the board inside without saying a word to us. It was not a very festive experience. Next time, we will go to Gays, as they at least serve what they advertise.

Good to see the Thomas’s bakery shop in Bovey Tracey taken on recently by Ryders which now needs to update its TripAdviser profile. Many types of bread, smell great, and appear to have wide range of cooked/heated foods as well as hot drinks. Fair range of pastries and some cakes, although, disappointingly, fresh cream cakes such as eclairs (nice for a treat) are not now stocked. Nearest alternative is the ‘cream’ buns which were formerly known here as Devon Splits, a popular and well known name far and wide. I wonder why change! An attractive little shop which will do well despite a couple of shortcomings.

We have been staying local for the past week and have been to this bakery a few times. Today however was a completely different experience, I was standing ordering inside with my daughter whilst I can clear as day hear the waitresses talk about my mixed race partner who was standing outside smoking under a tree as it was raining who she thought was going to rob her car talk about racism. She then stopped working and went and moved her car whilst looking down her nose at him , what happened to not judging a book by its cover . All happened infront of our children who witnessed it all safe to say we won't be going there again

Ryders must be really missing out on any ‘commuting’ trade, those customers wanting to buy their lunch sandwiches there, while avoiding the garage shops. Nothing available even when I’ve tried before 9am. Surely sandwiches made with fresh ingredients the day before, then refrigerated, would satisfy the early hungry worker brigade. The previous shop here started around 7 with a mostly comprehensive selection, and, importantly, a smile and a welcome from the staff. Must be disappointing to see your FSA rating at just 4, don’t know what went wrong there. I’ll still be a customer and look forward to seeing the improvements. Oh, nearly forgot, lovely bread.

Amazing food but ruined the experience with the racist staff, lady behind the counter stereotyping my dad of a different colour outside saying that he was going to rob her car , he was standing away from the rain having a cigarette under a tree drinking his coffee away with his family he wasn’t looking suspicious or anything out of the ordinary at all. She went round and told all the other staff as they stood inside judging him( I was standing inside the bakery as I could hear everything they was saying and the woman fully went outside and moved her car away from my dad because she genuinely thought that he was going to “rob” her car. And me as the daughter of the man being stereotyped this...

I ordered a Gut Buster, a sausage and bacon baguette, and a sausage roll at Ryder's today, 10/25/2023, around 1:30 pm. I am a local resident of Dawlish, and I used to be a frequent customer of this place. However, after today, I will never use them again. Unfortunately, they completely ruined their reputation for me. Usually, their food is spot on, but today was a different story. After placing my order, I was asked to wait outside and then collect my food from a street side counter, which was not their usual procedure. It turns out they didn't cook the bacon and sausage fresh as they normally do. The bacon was so hard and dry that it could have been used as a surfboard, and the sausage had...
