Our charming 17th century building was once the home of Annie Wilson, a local woman who acquired the legendary recipe for Bakewell Pudding, which she began producing and selling from the property around 1860. The Pudding - a puff pastry base with a layer of sweet strawberry jam, topped with a soft set custard made of eggs and almonds - is as popular now as it was then and we still keep the Great T
aste Award-winning recipe a secret. We also sell a variety of pies, pastries, cakes and handmade artisan breads, which are freshly made every day at our Bakewell Bakery. Visitors can also peruse our Aladdin’s cave for beers, wines, cheeses, jams, chutneys and gifts. If you can’t make it in person you can take advantage of our online store and ‘Post a Pudding’ service, which delivers around the world. Our 80-seater restaurant serves quality fare from light bites to a range of popular afternoon teas and roast dinners using locally sourced produce and the outdoor courtyard provides an al fresco dining option in warmer months. A Bakewell Pudding experience offers groups a tour followed by pudding-making and either coffee or a two-course meal.
