Fisher & Donaldson — Restaurant in Scotland

This was my first time (and I assure you, will most definitely be my last) in this bakery. I was visiting St. Andrews with my grandson. We popped in after spotting the lovely display of cakes in the window. Firstly, a member of staff who was directly opposite me at the counter, did not acknowledge me at all. She just stared blankly, whilst another was sweeping the floor. Another customer was being served and the young lady serving her, was very attentive and fully engaging with her. When she’d finished serving her, she took several seconds to even look at me. She asked if I was being served. I said “no” and she just stood with a very disinterested look on her face. Again I said “I’m not being served” so she had to move from the spot she was standing at (God forbid). Had I only been there myself, I’d have walked straight out, but my grandson was excited for his cake. I asked her for the frog cake which he chose. She took it, put it in a bag, took it down to the opposite end where I was standing and said “you’ll have to come down this end to the till” and plonked the cake on the counter. The previous customer didn’t have to move from where she was! Very poor...

These desserts are what dreams are made of…Fisher & Donaldson’s in St. Andrews is one of my favourite bakeries to visit. I love looking at the window displays to see all their creations. I personally love to get the millionaires shortbread or coffee tower. We get these confectioneries and they don’t even make it back home. We will sit and eat them in the area behind Holy Trinity Church. We stuff our face holes and we go to the beach and walk off .001 percent of what we ate. If you have never been, you need to go here and purchase some tasty, rich and satisfying deliciousness! My only complaint is that they close...

A St. Andrews institution.

The 'fudge doughnuts' are legendary among graduates. Many return here just to experience them one more time. A soft and sugary doughnut with an intensely creamy custard with vanilla on the inside and topped with a delicious fudge, these are extremely delicious and decadent.

The rhubarb pies are another of my favourites. If you love rhubarb, these are essential.

You can't visit St. Andrews without a visit to this place. Other sweet treats and breads are...
