Baker George - South Molton

Paula Nathan

I ordered a spread for tomorrow because I have family coming from Dubai and stated I needed vegetarian aswell as meat as my family coming are vegetarian. Went to collect today to find one box with all mixed sandwichs wraps sausage rolls pasties and 4 triangle sandwichs with salmon in , in the same box . I was disgusted and disappointed. Vegetarian should be separate in a separate box and 4 small triangle sandwichs that was it for vegetarians . I choose not to take the mixed box and asked for a refund and then told they had no cash so they would have to bank transfer which wouldn't be till Monday considering this is for my guests tomorrow and I know have to go and either make it all myself or try and find something else elsewhere. Seems you need to address this so it doesn't happen again .also I will not be using your services again .

Fresh and delicious sandwiches made to order! It’s quite easy to ‘get it wrong’ in sandwich shops but these guys know what they’re doing. The bread was top quality and super soft. Fillings were gorgeous. It’s a very unassuming shop, we almost walked past without noticing it but so glad we came in!! Thanks 😊

While visiting South Molton we stopped by at Baker George to get lunch. There's a Sainsburys store up the road from them, but we prefer to give local businesses our trade if possible. This was a very costly mistake!!! We bought two sausage rolls and two pasties, to take away. The price? Are you sitting down
Wait for it....

Fourteen pounds!!!! To repeat, two sausage rolls and two pasties. £14. They were admittedly quite large items, but fairly unpleasant tasting and really not worth half that price.

I could see no (obvious) price list anywhere, so absolutely should have queried the price before paying. TBH, I was so shocked I just paid and left, feeling quite dumbstruck. Of course, the moment I was out of the shop, it was too darn late to take the food back.

Just to repeat, two pasties and two sausage rolls. Fourteen pounds. £14. This is not a typo.

We visit our friends in North Devon twice a year and always go via South Molton. Needless to say, we'll never step foot in Baker George again. It's Sainsburys for us, every time in future.

Ps I checked online and this company does not advertise their prices there, either - sandwiches seem to be "from" £3, but there is no price stated for anything else. Wonder why...?

I used Baker George as caterers for my Grandmother's funeral buffet. We chose the afternoon tea option. They were professional and great communicators. They arranged the buffet and all the crockery too. The food was outstanding. Several people asked who we'd used for it. I'd highly recommend them.

Do not use this caterer for a wedding or private party.
Terrible communication (except when they want payment).
The menu wont be the same as the one you agreed and paid for, we had missing items including the centre peice for our wedding which should have been a whole cooked decorated salmon, canapés missing, the vegetarian option was not the same as I agreed for, i requested an evening gluten free box and got 4 finger sandwiches slices for £35.
The Invoice for staff costs was higher than quoted in writing, I requested 2 wait staff and got 1.
The final invoice had several discrepancies on it (as above) I queried twice with no reply, then was told to pay because the staff said the food look good. I queried again. In the space of 13 weeks I received 2 emails back telling to me pay without answering any of my queries from the invoice.
Hannah the owner then told me they could have left me without a caterer on my wedding day as one of her staff members got covid and basically I should be grateful I had a chef.
No acknowledgment once of the issues.

I hadnt yet paid as the invoice wasn’t correct.
Hannah stated twice she presumed I wasn’t going to pay and quote she “had a sneaking feeling about me right from the off”.
I received a reduced invoice by £100 telling me I was vile and the rudest customer in her life she has spoken with. Still no reply to any of my queries and still have no answers to the above.

Despite that, I just settled the invoice as I wasn’t going to waste any more time communicating with a business who blame their customers, wasnt going to bother to reply to me on any queries and who like to judge their customers willing to give them alot of their money. I asked for a payment confirmation or receipt- I’m still waiting.

Don’t waste your time, it won’t be worth it. And by the time you get any response it will be the following year. Avoid this company- who only cares about getting their money and judging their customers!
