We visited the English Bakery three times on our holiday to Gran Canaria! First for afternoon tea (lovely fresh, fluffy scones), second for lunch (pie, chips and gravy!) and third... read more for a wonderful cooked breakfast.

Top tip - they also make sandwiches and do cake, which they will pack up for you to take away. Helpful for if you have a flight and need food!

  Came across this place while wandering around the Yumbo last October ! Fantastic friendly cafe/bar. As we were self catering we frequented most morning for a fabulous breakfast and late... read more afternoons for Gin ! Arriving again tomorrow and will certainly be back absolutely love this place xx

  Deciding to escape Winter lockdown, we booked two weeks in Gran Canaria over Christmas and had booked the dinner ahead of time. So, wanting to check out the place beforehand,... read more we made a couple of visits ahead of Christmas day and were never disappointed. The menu is expansive and the service is friendly, with minor changes to orders no problem, but the star of the show is the food. Sausage rolls are bloody gorgeous, the sandwiches always tasty, the home-made pies just incredible. So, we had no doubts about our first Christmas eating at a restaurant, as well as eating outside!

There were two sittings for dinner, 1pm and 4pm and it was definitely the right choice to take the later time. The previous diners were almost all still there, enjoying themselves and unfortunately had to move on as the tables were cleared and we could take our places. Everyone had made their orders in advance, but everyone was asked if they had any last-minute changes they'd like to make, which was a nice touch. We began to drink as we waited for our meal. It took a little while, but the entire place was served each course at almost the same time, a massive feat of organisation and everything was hot and delicious.

With no sitting after us, we were free to take our time, enjoying the three courses as well as the wine until dusk and gone, finally leaving full and merry. A very different kind of Christmas to what I'm used to, but thoroughly enjoyable. We of course made sure to revisit in the few days afterwards before flying home to the cold and it will be the first place we return to when we do go back.

  The English bakery is a staple of our visit and Sean is always here making our day a bit brighter!!!

The food and coffee is great too....

  We visited this lovely place a few times in November. My son is vegetarian and fussy, takes ages to make his mind up! both of the owners were extremely patient,... read more helpful and pleasant. We all enjoyed the food, the scones were gorgeous.

  Terrible service waited for sausage sandwich sausages were not cooked well not for me and had to wait a while for it

  visited this place everyday day for FULL ENGLISH BREAKFAST. Afternoon scone and lashing of hot tea, dinner with cocktails. These guys work hard and are always pleasant and make sure... read more you have everything you need.
I have known about this place on the other two occasions I have been to playa de ingles but always went to our favourite cafe, I NOW have this as my favourite cafe. Keep up the good work guys and see you in May 2021.

  Having searched for a good place to eat, I was looking forward to my lunchtime burger. Everything looks fine, but the waiter [and another guy who came out the back... read more with food at one point] were not wearing masks properly. The young man's mask constantly kept dropping down, to which he then pulled back up before instantly dropping down again. He then, using that same hand, served food and drinks to customers. To the restaurant: for transmitting of Covid 19, please note that this is more dangerous than not using a mask.

  Found out about this place through a Facebook group and am so glad we did, we visited nearly every day for breakfast and also at night for drinks.
The food... read more we had was lovely and great value.
Worth tracking down if you are in the Yumbo Centre.
It's definitely somewhere we'll be returning too once we can travel again

  Myself and my fiancé Mark cannot rate this place higher! Steve and Jay are fantastic, gave us such a warm welcome and couldn’t do more! We will absolutely be back... read more again.

  This fairly recent english style cafe/restaurant/bar is superbly situated in the Yumbo centre and provides excellent value for money and great choice of value for money food from breakfast until... read more late afternoon Totally friendly welcome from all staff and other customers. Best place by far around Yumbo to spend your mid-morning, just sitting, chilling, talking or reading.

  I visit the English Bakery cafe quite often . I like the relaxed atmosphere and friendly manner of the team..love their coffee..

  We have visited this fantastic little bakery several times now and have never been disappointed with the food, drinks or service.
It really is a breath of fresh air... read more for the Yumbo centre to be honoured with this type of cafe and is a great addition.
We have noticed the place becoming more busier and the team there have realised this and made adjustments to the way they serve their customers, including the addition of a professional chef, the menu is more extensive, and they really are offering a wide variety of English food and drink, including a selection of G & T's naturally.. I tried the Gordons Lemon last night, highly recommended!
What we see when we visit is the owners always working very hard, coming up with new ideas and ways to expand improve their business, which is great for everyone.
Well done and thank you English Bakery cafe for providing the Yumbo centre with this great Cafe.
Hope to see you again very soon. x

  Have been in Gran Canaria for 12 nights and have came here nearly every 2nd night over the course of my stay due to not liking our hotel food..This restaurant... read more is amazing. Food is unreal, cooked well, super fresh and presented well. Drinks are served in a glass from the freezer which makes the drinks amazingly cold.

Forgot to mention; the scones are amazing! I had to have one every night after our meal

  Ate here 3/4 times during my stay in Gran Canaria. Served mainly by a guy called Sean who was very friendly and happy for us to change any ingredients in... read more the omelettes etc which was great! Very reasonably priced. Only let down was I think they could do with another server around midday as 2 times it was incredibly busy and almost too much for one waiter to handle which meant a little bit more of a wait on food and drink etc. Seemed to annoy a couple of people on nearby tables but we were happy to wait for great food.

  Found this cafe last November and have to say the best cream tea on the island, simply delicious. Real cup of tea, lovely home made cakes and savouries. But above... read more all very friendly service from the owners and staff. You won’t be disappointed after having a treat here.

  Visited the bakery on a previous holiday in Jan and came back again in March, Steve and Jay gave us a really warm welcome back. My wife and I both... read more love this place. The food is proper home made and always tasty. Burgers are awesome. Breakfast very very tasty, cakes and scones are freshly made. We tried almost everything on the menu from a sausage roll snack to a delicious Sunday roast and can’t fault anything.
Anyone visiting the Yumbo should pay these guys a visit. You’ll certainly be welcomed . Thanks guys.

  We visited twice during our weeks stay and very happy with the food and service we received. We popped in for an afternoon treat and had the scones and coffee... read more and they were absolutely lovey both times. We were treated very well by the owners and they were happy to chat as they could giving us some info about the Yumbo centre.

  Wanna slice of UK? Well at this place you can have everything from a scone to a full roast dinner. These folks run a friendly place with pies, chip butties... read more and loads of cakes, mugs of tea and I think even a steak bake. It’s fun and a nice contemporary outdoor terrace.

  Wow, what a great place this is, a perfect little bit of English in glorious sunshine, the food is fabulous just like the owners, from pasties to scones you can't... read more go wrong, I have recommeded this place to all my family & friends, this place is fit for the Queen.....I should know as her majesty & myself ate there, it wasn't the real queen, but pretty close.

Just a great all round place in the Yumbo Centre!

  Been coming to this place for a couple of years now whenever we go down south. We went today on the way back from Puerto Rico. We had breakfasts and... read more ordered some pies to take away. The food was and is always really good and the girl who served us was very attentive and has a good way with people. It’s always worth a visit

  Excellent food for a very decent price. There are loads of options from healthy choices to burgers, breakfast, pies, etc.
We’ve been there twice and will definitely return in the... read more future, it’s a perfect option for brunch/lunch.
Service was impeccable, very friendly waiter, short waiting times, and amazing food presentation.
A true gem among the touristic low-end options around the Yumbo centre.

  There are so many places in Playa Del Ingles that try and cater to English travellers, but this is the first to do it well, not cutting corners with cheap... read more produce. Everything on the menu is thought out and freshly made and it shows. The boys have spotted a gap in the market and work so hard to make sure what they are offering is all great quality. Even though we went at a time when very few British travellers were able to reach the island, everything we had, from breakfast sandwiches and wraps, to scones and their amazing bannoffee pie was all very tasty and made with love. They also stock a good selection of drinks, including a variety of gins and their own alcohol slushies! The owners are also incredibly welcoming, taking the time to get to know their guests, and seem to be very knowledgeable of the local area, updating us on the local news and changing situations with regards to the pandemic. Visiting the English Bakery Cafe is now a must for anyone visiting PDI.
