Cornish Bakehouse is a bakery and casual food stop at 89 Queen Street in central Cardiff. The business began in St Ives in 1983 and remains closely associated with substantial Cornish pasties, providing shoppers and city workers with a convenient choice for breakfast, lunch or a warm savoury snack.
Its pasties are hand crimped in the traditional manner and baked fresh in the shops throughout the day. The classic version combines beef, potato, swede and onion in flaky pastry, while alternatives such as steak and ale, lamb and mint, cheese and onion and mixed vegetable fillings broaden the selection.
The menu extends beyond pasties to sandwiches, baguettes, jacket potatoes and breakfast rolls. These options make the bakery useful for diners who want something assembled to order or a lighter midday meal, while coffee and cold drinks provide an easy accompaniment for food eaten on the move.
Sausage rolls, cakes, doughnuts and other sweet bakes round out the counter display. The combination of traditional savouries, vegetarian choices and all day bakery items gives the Queen Street branch enough range for repeat visits while keeping the focus on straightforward food served without delay.
