The only complaint I could have was that because the place is quite small we did have to wait for a table to become free but nothing can be done about that really.

I’m really sorry to have to write this review, as we’ve been to Bake My Day approx in excess of 20 times in the past. We often come with friends and all of us feel the same and agree with comments below. Food is of good quality, although portion sizes vary I ordered avocado on toast and paid £2.50 for extra bacon; it came with 1 slice of bacon which is disappointing. they can’t accommodate children. I asked for 1 2 scrambled eggs and beans for our 18 month old and was told everything is pre packaged into adult portions therefore I’d have to order from the adult menu. I can’t understand why it’s too much trouble to cook 2 scrambled eggs and put some beans in a pan. Also, is it really that fresh if everything is pre made??? staff are very hit and miss. Sometimes friendly but often a bit stand off ish. We often don’t feel that welcome (plenty of other reviews also mention this). food timings. Food often comes late and we rarely eat together. We ordered 4 breakfasts (5 including the child’s) and there was 25 mins between the first and last arriving. finally the cost. We often get a cake/flapjack to take away and the bill is always around the £50 mark. I don’t mind paying for good food but when I pay £50 for 2 people and a child to have breakfast I expect exceptional service. We pay approx £90 100 between the 4 of us and this price is similar to 5* and Michelin establishments in Leeds and York such as The Ivy and The Star In The City. Unfortunately the 4 of us have decided that this is the last straw for us which is disappointing as we like to support small local businesses. If it’s too much trouble to make some scrambled eggs and beans for my daughter, and if it’s too hard to ensure all 4 breakfasts come out at the same time, and if it’s too hard to be welcoming to customers, especially when I’m paying £50 for breakfast, then I’ll take my custom elsewhere.
My Saturday brunch at Bake My Day is becoming a real highlight to my week. Having read reviews of slow service and rude staff (vast minority of reviews) I honestly question where those people went the whole BMD team are a wonderful bunch who make you feel welcome. Things take longer than a greasy spoon cafe....because they're a high quality, passionate about food, attention to detail kinda joint. Emma, Ellie, Jamie and the team are a real shining light in West Yorkshire. Prices? You get what you pay for and it's worth every penny.
Had a slight issue last week, The owner contacted me to personally apologise. After understanding the situation I gave the place another try today. All I can say is Turkish eggs are a must! Portion size is great and if you can fit dessert in try the Strawberry cheesecake brownie, Very satisfied customer who will be going again and very pleasant interaction with the owner who was 100% dedicated to making a customer happy.
We recently visited BMD I couldn’t walk by the time I left. The choice of home baking variety of unique funky food is superb. The tray bakes are are amazing some of them are works of art to good to eat but I have it my best go. The slutty brownie is a personal favourite of mine. Staff were very attentive couldn’t have done any more to make sure we had a super pleasant visit. Looking forward to Visiting again.
The food was delicious, did have to wait a while but it was worth it! The staff were friendly and the atmosphere was nice and chilled.
