Sometimes when we visit Rye we don't want to go to a restaurant so instead we'll head to a bakery…read moreor sandwich shop and buy something to sit with near the harbour. Rye Bakery is probably the best known in Rye because it's very fresh and sweet. I am a fan of a fresh loaf or iced buns! Lovely people, lovely baked goods.

Only one visit but we tried a raisin wheel, the local specialty called Tarte Tatin, the traditional…read moreéclair au café, the regional old timer pastry called Calais and it's local spin called a Boulogne. Moderately priced and well crafted goods ! While what we try is pretty basic, basics well made are increasingly hard to come by these days ! And they make their own bread too. So kudos to these guys ! I give them five to encourage them to continue and because we really enjoyed their goods. Bonne continuation ! As we say en français.

This bakery so needs to be on yelp, so it gives me great pleasure to add it and write the first…read morereview. I live about an hour from here but my boyfriend and I happy drive here. Every single time there is a different pastry to try (or so it seems), along with cakes, sausage rolls (normal or spicy), chocolate, macrons (so many varieties - my favourite being salted caramel) and the most amazing different kinds of bread. Everything he sells is made the morning before the bakery opens and there is a limited amount. Once it's sold out its sold out! There are a few small tables and a sofa and it can get quite busy at the weekends. The guy who runs the place is very nice, as is all the staff. We love to sit down, order food and drinks, relax then take home tons of stuff to eat throughout the day! X

I used to think the best pastries in the world were in Paris, and if you compare city-wide pastry…read morescenes that's probably still true. However, for the quantitatively best pastry, look no further than this unassuming storefront in Rochester. Your eye will be caught by an array of delectables displayed in the window. And they taste every bit as good as they look - maybe more. We got three jam donuts, two jam pies (the lemon was best) and a few other items for under 5 pounds. Without a doubt the best pastries I've eaten in my life, and I've made it a point to eat quite a few. Eating jelly donuts at the top of Rochester Castle will always be one of my favorite memories.
