Common Loaf Bakery in East Devon

Such a gentle place, great food and cakes and awesome people

Want good bread made really well and with love. Spend your hard earned money here... its worth it.

What a little gem. The carrot cake is the most delicious cake ever. The staff are absolutely amazing. Filter coffee rather than machine made but again, the best filter brew that I've had. Worth treading off the beaten track. No hesitation in recommending the Common Loaf. BRILLIANT 5stars from me.

I had the pure pleasure of sampling Common Loaf Bakery's Carob & Walnut Brownie via Earthwise in Somerset yesterday and I must say it's the best indulgent brownie I have ever sampled! It is substantially caroby gooey subtlety sweet that is truly satisfying in the best way ie not sickly and sugary sweet like a lot of other supposedly handmade brownies tend to be. Thankful I stumbled upon a local gem of a supplier, producer and caring community so close by to where I'm currently based. Thank you for making them as they truly are a Labour of love. Keep up the excellent work. Happy New year ✨

Bottom line: cozy space in a beautiful setting, very welcoming people and delicious food... What else can one ask for?What a gem of a place! You get a cozy feeling as soon as you pull into the driveway, and the wooden interior, lovely views and fireplace are just so welcoming. Both the other guests at the table, as well as the hostess were very friendly and hospitable. The food was quite amazing as well, I had the deef and cheese hot sandwich (the onion roll was just so soft and delicious), and the banana loaf was very good as well. It's pay what you choose kind of arrangement, which is very fair. We would definitely come back!

Nice quaint little tea room. Run by some sort of community....that gives out leaflets...but very pleasant and pretty place. Pay what you think it's worth and the cakes were lovely!

Wow what a lovely experience to meet the these lovely friendly people the cake 🍰 and roll where first class and the coffee was the best I have had for years 😊 they helped us when we got lost with our caravan

I stayed here for months at a timewonderful people, helped me enormously when I needed it most...All the food is made with love and tastes delicious...💞 Look!!!

Excellent little cafe. Incredibly friendly staff, such a wonderfully relaxed atmosphere. We sat with our tea and coffee, all in beautiful china, on the sofas in front of the roaring fire while we waited for our sandwiches to be prepared. The menu is very limited, but we go back time again for their amazing steamed sandwiches. We both agree it's the best sandwich we've ever had! Cannot rate the place highly enough, although I'm tempted to give a bad review just to keep the hoards away from this hidden little gem.

The common loaf is run by a community of bakers that live on-site. Their bread, cakes and treats are all delicious and, where possible, made with high-quality, ethical ingredients. I had the pleasure of spending a night there during a cycling trip and the hospitality shown to me was boundless - I left laden with baked goodies for my onward journey!
