Why Choose Mum's Bakehouse?

About Mum's Bakehouse

Pies are what customers mention at this Birkdale bakery. Fresh from the oven is how locals describe the cabinet, and one visitor called the rolls huge, big enough to save half for dinner. The old-fashioned beesting has its fans, as does the apple turnover.

One person went back a couple of hours later after it sold out and came away calling it crisp and flaky, not too sweet, with just a dusting of icing sugar on top.

Mum's Bakehouse does custom cakes as well, and that's where we've heard some of the warmest stories. Staff have taken the time to ask kids about colours, characters and flavours for a birthday cake, and slab cakes for milestone birthdays have gone down well. Prices for cakes get described as reasonable.

It's a takeaway and in-store shopping bakery that also does coffee and breakfast, with tables out the front. Locals like to grab a coffee after the shopping, and one grandparent treats the grandson here before school. Staff are mostly described as friendly and quick even when it's busy, though one person had a poor experience at the counter. There's free parking and an accessible entrance, and you can pay by card or phone. Check the hours before you head in, as they vary across the week.
