Bakery On The Water

About

Bakery on the Water sits proudly on the banks of the River Windrush in the picturesque village of Bourton‑on‑the‑Water, the cosy “Venice of the Cotswolds”. This family‑owned café offers a relaxed riverside terrace where you can savour fresh, home‑baked bread, pastries, and the usual Cotswold breakfast classics—full‑English, cereals, fruit, and locally brewed coffee—all while watching the gentle river flow past. The menu is thoughtfully composed of locally sourced ingredients that change daily. From golden sourdough loaves and flaky croissants to hearty sandwiches and sweet treats, each item is handmade in the shop, giving guests a taste of genuine Cotswold baking traditions. Take‑away is available, so busy visitors can still enjoy a catered snack on the river. Beyond food, the café prides itself on a welcoming, dog‑friendly atmosphere. Well‑behaved pups are always welcome, and the venue is fully wheelchair accessible, with DDA compliant facilities for all visitors. Whether you’re a resident, a day‑treader, or an out‑of‑town tourist, Bakery on the Water promises warm hospitality, freshly baked delights, and a memorable riverside setting.
