Model Bakery — Restaurant in Wales

After watching the Hairy Bikers and hearing all about this place we had to stop on our way through Blaenau ! (Incidentally why is is always raining here… makes the slate heaps look even more sinister!)

We stopped off with our dog on the way back to Herefordshire after a lovely week in Anglesey.

The shop was quiet, but has a lovely feeling about it - like stepping back in time! No card payments here so remember you cash! Kurmang Was super friendly ushering us in out of the rain, and ging out dog Bert a few cuts of ham and making a fuss of him!

We tried a selection of his wonderful baked goods, the Katsu curry pastie, spinach and feta wrap and the famous spicy pastie!!! Wow, absolutely everything was delicious and the pastry, fluffyness of the pastie was unbelievable! We’ll make all future trips in the area a detour via here for supplies! Highly...

Amazing experience, great bloke working behind the counter who loves what he does and some amazing baked goods. I had the Spicy Kurdish Pasty and it was excellent - a massive, hearty, warm and filling pasty with wonderful flavour. I also grabbed a Meat & Potato pasty for the road as well as a Sausage Roll, both of which were equally as good and filled to the brim with meat. My partner had grabbed a couple sweet treats from the window, a gingerbread man and a chocolate brownie, in addition to a couple of the vegetarian baked goods, a Cheese & Onion Pasty and a Jamaican Vegetable Pasty, all of which were highly rated and also scored an easy 10/10 across the board. Cash only but outstandingly cheap for the food you get, £20 in total for the two of us who ordered an abundance of food. Highly recommend it to those in the area or just...

Kurmang is a genuinely lovely person, he took the time to speak to us and explain about what he sells. We had seen his bakery on the hairy bikers and we had a lovely chat about when they came and Kurmangs background etc. We bought two Kurdish pasties and a sausage roll for our 8 year old. He is a super fussy eater but let me tell you he ate every last crumb! Loved it!

What can I say about the Kurdish pasties!!!! Absolutely fantastic, wholesome, flavoursome, soft, tasty, not too spicy. Big compliments from my fussy eater partner too.

We came for a weekend in Wales and we just couldn't miss coming to the shop as we have done a few hairy biker calls now and will continue to follow in their footsteps too.

Thank you so much. Never had anything like it and I don't think anything could top the Kurdish pasty for...
