Cafes in Montrose

“Lovely food, staff and building. Very close to museum. Plenty of on street free parking nearby.”

“Phoenix Bakery is truly a unique gem. What sets it apart is the exceptional quality of its offerings. The bread and pastries here are wonderfully light – nothing feels overwhelming or heavy. Every bite is filled with goodness, rich in wholesome ingredients that speak of care and craftsmanship. The flavours are distinctly European, far from the artificial and dense pre-packaged loaves you often find elsewhere.

What’s particularly interesting about this bakery is how it fuses British baking tradition with a modern European twist. These are not your typical, boring bakes – they’re intriguing and full of character. I highly recommend trying the sourdough bread with fresh butter – it’s simply delicious – as well as the pastries, which are equally delightful.

The only minor issue I’ve encountered is that some of the cakes can be a bit dry, likely due to being displayed under lamps that don’t help retain their moisture. However, beyond that, everything is truly interesting and worth exploring. Phoenix Bakery offers not only delicious but also healthy options, and I’m glad I stumbled upon it. Highly recommended!”

“First time in Montrose and glad I found this gem. Hearty bowl of soup, coffee and cake, all went down a treat. Very busy but quick and friendly service. Located in a lovely building too, I'll be back to investigate this lovely town a bit more.”
