The 15 best desserts and snacks in Windsor

We came for the afternoon tea and we were very pleased with our choice. The tea was great and with lots of finger tasty sandwiches and delicious cakes, scones were also very nice. I really liked that the tea came a quite large pot (with lots of milk). Fast service. Really bad bathroom.

Excellent Service at Windsor branch very nice food and great coffee. Chairs and sitting arrangement needs a bit a renovation otherwise everything else is up to the mark. If you are vegetarian and ordering afternoon tea, please make sure that you asked to replace non veg sandwiches with veg one. Double chocolate cake is a must try for chocolate lovers. Strawberry cake is very nice as well. Overall very much recommended.

Appalling. Not busy but 15 min wait for 2 luke warm coffees. No teaspoons, only one saucer and had to ask for milk, which arrived in a small jug so chipped it should have been in the bin ages ago. No wonder this chain is in trouble, with service like this the sooner they close down the better.

Simply the best coffee shop in Windsor. The menu is a wonderful blend of savory dishes and cakes. Definitely worth checking out

Excellent food. Delicious and lightning fast. Tad noisy but still enjoyable.

Visited this location recently and instantly felt like a burden to the staff. It was clear that they did not care about us sitting in the restaurant and having a pleasant experience, they wanted to get rid of us as quickly as possible. Everything we asked about seemed to exhaust/annoy the staff. Not a warm, friendly welcome at all unfortunately. Have had really great experiences at other locations but would not bother with the Windsor restaurant again. It was a wasted journey.

I went here for afternoon tea and it was very nice. I thought £25 for two people seemed very reasonable, considering you could have unlimited hot drinks with it! Portion sizes were generous, I couldn't actually finish all of mine. The only downside to this place, is that they don't have any air con. So in the summer it's far too hot.

Cro-Nuts served by Spider-Man Masked dude. Good selection well presented, served and labelled. Good fun too. Kudos to the shop for proactively offering us a sample of the YumYum cronut and that was probably what sealed the deal. We walked away with the best sellers, half a dozen in a box in a buy four get two free deal. I think these are mucho better than the regular donuts and many many times better than what you get at a chain with the initials KK. I don’t eat donuts normally but I made an exception for these and I am pleased I did. Worth a try. I enjoyed the chocolate ganache inside the something Ella named one.

Great find on our visit to Windsor. Tucked away at the station is a fabulous little shop selling Donuts and Ice Creams....lovely. Good quick service !

Charming staff who are passionate about their desserts. First time trying a Cronut and was tastier than a normal doughnut, plus they are baked and not fried. Bonus is they are vegan friendly too with plenty of options. Would recommend a try of a cronut (croissant & doughnut hybrid).

As we took the train from Slough Station to Windsor we were hoping to grab brunch, but our ticket for Windsor Castle didn't allow for a sit down meal. To our surprise we walked past this unique cronut / donut spot, and my foodie senses started to take over. We strolled in to a pleasant aroma of sweetness! The cronuts in the case looked absolutely stunning so our group decided to try a few and share. We indulged in the Nutella, Yum Yum, Zebra, and the Oreo Dough. All were scrumptious, slightly dense, and extremely filling! Definitely plan to share as one of these bad boys can easily be plenty for 2 people. That being said, the leftovers came home with us...so I'm not complaining. The fellas behind the counter were very friendly and answered all our questions. They also serve ice cream, but I had no room to partake on this visit. Needless to say, don't be a Dum Dum...go try this Donutterie!

Most delicious but not overbearing donuts! We got a mixture of cro-nuts (croissant/donut) and classic donuts, they’re all light, fluffy and super tasty. Definitely recommend if you’re in the area, Hassan was very patient with us and explained the flavours and choices so well.

Probably the worst donuts I have ever had! The filling was whipped cream and the salty "caramel" was colored extra salty whipped cream. Not to mention that they weren't even fresh (+2days for sure) and the total price for 3 (the 3rd had 50% discount) was 9.75£.....

Love love love the baked donuts, had three different flavours and all were amazing. The owner was also super friendly and helpful which makes all the difference. Will definitely be going back to try the other flavours

The cakes are extremely nice and everybody loves them. And a staff member called Adele was really kind. When we spilt a drink all over the table she reassured us, cleared it up with a smile and gave us a new cake. And the atmosphere is very nice.

Heidi Bakery is my go to cafe of choice and is a great comfort to me personally for tasty lunches and for coffee with pastries. This is the case for all my family who live in Windsor and further afield when visiting. Service is always second to none with friendly staff and welcoming faces who always go over and above for any needs or requirements. It doesn’t matter if you are new in town and just visiting or a regular customer everyday, Heidi’s is a place not to be missed and will leave an impression worthy of a review like this one. Thank you Heidi.

We absolutely love this place. Everything we tried was delicious. Adele was very friendly and informative, and we owe a special thank you to Ti whose friendliness and great coffee made our visit memorable.

Delicious coffees, food and sweet treats. Star of the show is their lunch deal. Their food is always freshly made on the day and tastes great. Ham and cheese toastie is a great option. This place is a hotspot for locals and can get very busy on weekends, best for a quick bite then to leave rather than lounge (which is fine!) Dog friendly cafe within Daniels department store so just be mindful that you might be seated next to a dog while you eat.

Food was so good! Adelle was amazing!! She was so nice and helpful and kind. The jam donut was worthy of the name. It’s incredibly fresh! The Mozzarella focaccia was very nice and the croquet Monsieur Oat flat white was very nice as well and the cappuccino. The strawberry tart had strawberry jam unexpectedly but still v nice.

Great place for a quick coffee and snack. We had 10 minutes to get on our bus so wherever we picked ,for coffee and a snack, had to be quick. We made it in and out of Heidi in about 3 minutes. There were other patrons there ahead of us as well. The coffee, cinnamon roll and Pan au Chocolat were delicious. Prices are fair, staff is friendly and dress is casual.

Heidi welcomes you right after getting off the train. Both pastry and coffee was great!

Totally disappointed after my order and when I came back home and read the allergens list. So I asked at the counter tht hot chocolate fudge cake is eggfree, first of all guy at the counter did not have any idea about the menu , price or table numbers . Okay I do understand may be new person working there . And then he asked girl whether this hot chocolate fudge contains egg, she said all our cakes doesn’t contain egg. And i believed them and took it bcos before that I asked them if they have any vegan cake, they said our eggs doesn’t contain egg. Aftr coming back home I read allergens pdf all cakes contained eggs. U disappointed me , first of all no proper training given to people who are working. Totally unprofessional.

We ordered the waffle with chocolate and strawberries and a cookie dough, absolutely awful. I never go out of my way to leave a bad review, but with so many dessert places I can’t comprehend how they can get it so so wrong, cookie dough tasted burnt and dry, the waffle was cold, dry and tasteless, the ice cream was very cheap quality just awful. We asked for a jug of water and it was hot.. I could go on it was that bad.

I am very disappointed in the experience. When you order, half of the ingredients are empty or just the same flavours of ice cream. It was a huge problem to check if they had anymore flavours. When I paid extra to create a special waffle, once again the ingredients where missing and when it arrive to the table it displayed worse than the regular waffles. Extremely disappointed and left the restaurant

One word - delicious!! We ordered couple of signature dishes, and they were superb, very nicely prepared, fresh cut fruits, enough chocolate and meal-size. One dish fills one tummy if you aren't very hungry :-) Though we had to wait a little longer this time, and they upfront told when they brought it on the table - appreciated. Only improvement - they don't clean the tables with wipes when a customer leaves, instead just remove plates - bit less hygienic, thus going for 4 stars. But food-wise: very nice, as always.

I went in with my family on Sunday we got served by a gentleman called DJ he was very friendly and helpful. we enjoyed our deserts and recommended coffee. it was a pleasant experience for us. thank you so much DJ.

Food was absolutely amazing, we ordered a s’mores hot pocket and some other bits. We were also kindly given a biscoff milkshake and it was stunning 🤤 ! Only downside was the rowdy teenagers but the staff were on it and asked them to calm down/leave.

Amazing food and brilliant service. DJ looked after us - he was super accommodating and made the whole experience so easy. Couldn’t have asked for more! Would defo recommend :)

Rip off. In any restaurant you would get a fries when when your order a burger, this place despite the fact I asked, and the waiter said yes. They charged extra for the fries. £4 for ech fries, I work in retail and I know when I see a frozen chip being fried. £ 4 for a bottle of 60p water. Rip off... Never again.

Stopped in for a crepe. The one star is generous. Batter went bad. Horrible taste. The cook/cashier was kind enough to refund my money upon request.

Absolute rip off. £20 for 2 Ice creams. It had poor quality flavour and its consistency was icy, that of a slushy. Don’t come here. Thieves.

Came across this hidden gem with my wife on our day out on this beautiful day, best spent in Windsor. The decorations were stunning and full of character, like a pink cosy cottage. We sat on the love bench by the pink fireplace, and wow, what a wonderful ambience. I had the quarter rottiserie chicken with chips and a salad, and my wife opted for the beef burger without a top bun. The food was tender, juicy, and the salad was surprisingly good. Topped it off with a cotton candy ice cream on the way out to continue our day, decorated and served beautifully to us by Iman. Definitely coming back to this cafe, one not to miss.

Probably one of the best crepes I’ve had in a while! Staff were also friendly and made it feel very welcoming. Definitely one of my new favourite spots!

The food here made me very ill, definitely would not go back

This is the best place to eat in windsor. The food its amazing.The burger with chips are the best I have eaten. Staff very polite and friendly. Love this place.

Very tasty donuts, fluffy, delicious. It has vegan donuts suitable for those who are fasting. I ate stuffed with chocolate and at the first bite I was speechless. Full praline filling and tasty. I tried my sister's with caramel and it was yummy 🤤🥲😍

A welcome treat off Peascod Street I came to visit Windsor Castle, had some extra time. and decided to walk around the local area. I am glad that I did since I found Peascod Street. This is a lovely street, covered in cobblestones, directly down the hill from the castle. There is only foot traffic on this street which is pleasant as it is fairly wide leaving plenty of room to walk and windowshop. The street is lined with all kinds of shops from food to clothing. The Krispy Kreme is one of the first shops closest to the top of the hill and the beginning of the street. There are some tables outside on the street and a few ( I think 3) booths inside. The shop was clean with a great selection and display of donuts. You order, pay, and collect at the counter. The staff was very friendly. I noticed from one of the other reviewers an important point, they are cashless. They only accept electronic payments so don’t be offended if you can’t use your pounds at this location. I got glazed donuts. They were, as always, consistently delicious. If you want a nice place to get a good donut near Windsor Castle, this is a great place to do that.

I visited Krispy Kreme on Thursday with my 2 little grandchildren. Harry was amazing. He helped them choose a Batman & Superman 🍩 and made them a baby capuccino. Harry is fantastic, friendly and a genuinely nice guy. It's very rare to get this level of customer service. Nothing was too much trouble for him and everything was delivered with a smile. I will be back soon and won't go anywhere else in Windsor for coffee. He is 💯 the best employee I've experienced. Thank You.

I travelled quite a distance to get Krispy Crème absolutely delicious loved the pac man collection worth the travel.

American style pit stop just outside of the visitor entrance of Windsor Castle. Booth seating. Clean washrooms. Weak coffee (appropriate for a tea-loving nation) but consistent donuts.

Great place for anytime any day. Opens up early so if you are in a mood for an on the go breakfast or want to sit and enjoy the cozy atmosphere inside, take your pick. My favourite here at krispy kreme is the £ 3.25 deal in which you get a doughnut and a hot drink. I always go for their gourmet hot chocolate. Staff here is also very courteous and friendly.

Excellent service by Holly and Harry. The place was so clean. They were so friendly and help me choosing donuts

Quaint and well located, and fairly averagely priced. The main issue though was ice cream NOT being cold enough when served, within 3 minutes walking around in the shade my two scoops on a cone had become a complete mess and collapsed all over my clothes. I’m a fairly seasoned ice cream consumer and know how to balance melting ice cream in warm weather, but this was impossible. Totally ruined my outfit and I had to parade around with chocolate stains on me for the remainder of my day out, at least I hope people thought it was just chocolate!

Lovely little place, no indoor seating, but some outside in the cobbled area next to the castle. The gelato was delicious. I was impressed that they had a few vegan choices too. The staff were really friendly.

1 scoop of ice cream £3:50 it was tasty and just what I need on a hot day. The staff were friendly and efficient. I would recommend this establishment. Seating area is outside on the cobbles.

Worst ice cream place I’ve ever had the misfortune of visiting. Ice cream was awful. Tasted grainy and hardly any flavour whatsoever. Staff did not have adequate hygiene procedures in place, as they were handling the cones/waffles with their bare hands. For the love of god, please avoid this place like the plague!

I asked what the price for one scoop is, staff said £3.50 and when I chose a flavor and received it, the price was £4.00. Ice cream was tasteless and the scoops are small considering the price. For everyone working there, maybe tell your customers the correct prices of what you are selling if they choose it. Big disappointment.

This ice cream shop is along Church Street, which is directly across the road as you are exiting from Windsor Castle. It is great to have some ice cream on a chilly day! There are wide varieties of ice cream flavours to choose from, and besides gelato, they also serve crepe, milk shake and coffee. It is a good place for desserts and some drinks!

One of my favourite ice cream parlour in Windsor. Lot of types of flavours of gelato are available here. Everyday new stocks of favourite come. No two days are same 😍. Also, if you have “Advantage card”(special resident card for Windsor residents), you can ask for one plus one(one scoop free with one scoop/ sometimes one cone or cup come free with another, depends upon their mood😉). But if you are in Windsor, it’s a must visit ice cream shop. It’s located just in front of the Windsor Castle, so very easy to locate. They have sitting options too if you want to enjoy by sitting in outside area of shop. Stuffs are very polite and helpful. Recently they have increased price a little bit, but trust me it’s worth. Highly recommended 👍

Handy store and good prices but please put more than one cashier on duty on a Saturday. I feel so sorry for the staff who to their credit are always friendly and helpful despite the long queues.

There was an Indian lady on the till my partner asked about the big egg tray he was so humble to her , but she acted so rude and started making faces on him like why ??? I could have literally knocked her down there but I have manners unlike her . Teach your staff that they are here for customer service not anyone here is for there freaking mood fluctuations. And yes I didn’t buy anything from the store because of her behaviour.

The staff are continuously so cold towards customers. To be hired don’t you need to have good customer service. But then literally everyone is so cold and dismissive, I genuinely feel bad for asking them for anything. Except that one Somalian guy ( or East African guy) he’s so sweet and kind and is actually cheerful. The rest of the staff maybe there too old to work there now they just act like they are being forced to be there.

Iceland store in West Dayton (UK) really needs to improve their service. Every time there’s only one person on the till, and they are super slow. I don’t know the name, maybe they’re Asian (not sure), but they just keep chatting with customers instead of paying attention to the queue. People are standing in line, possibly in a rush, and they’re just talking casually like there’s no hurry. That’s probably why the West Dayton Iceland is always empty. If the service was faster, more customers would come. But people avoid it because they know it’s a waste of time. Too slow, too casual — not efficient at all.

Pleasant experience except at the tills and the long queues. Had a lot of items especially frozen.

The workers is friendly especially one of the workers young man named Nasir helps you alot really friendly and hardworking.

Mostly frozen products and they're reasonably priced.

Amazing new boba place in Windsor!!! The guy at the front was so welcoming and talked us through the inspiration of the flavors and the beautiful interior. Honestly had the best summery vibe and the staff were so sweet. We tried a few flavours of ice cream and mango mochi was my favourite and my boyfriend loved the cereal milk; tasted just like the sweet milk left at the end of a bowl of cereal . We weren't planning on getting anything but it tasted so good that we had to!! Definitely will be coming back very often as it will be our new desert spot 😋

We were welcomed with a smile by the owner (Jeremy) & were invited to try some samples before ordering, which we did. The Vietnamese Coffee ice cream was outrageously delicious, especially when combined with the crunchy croffle base (croissant + waffle) - a must try in my opinion. And although the ice cream seemed on the pricier side, I can highly recommend the place for the unique flavours, upmarket interiors, super friendly staff (thank you Mia) & the overall vibe of the place & people running it. The conversation with Jeremy on our way out added the personal touch that many businesses seem to miss out on these days. Will definitely be back soon.

Can’t wait to go back here, love the different flavours and great vegan options! Owner is very lovely and enthusiastic about their products. Really delicious, loved the mango sticky rice ice cream and the strawberry matcha bubble tea!

I had the best desserts there with the best services. I especially love their oolong peach tea and strawberry matcha oat latte. Oolong tea is so refreshing and the combination of strawberry and match is now my new obsession. Love the vibes of the shop and CANT WAIT TO VISIT THEM AGAIN. ❤️❤️❤️

This place was amazing!! The owner was so friendly; he was going around to check up on all of the tables to ensure everyone was happy with what they had ordered. The Earl Grey Biscoff flavour was magnificent and by far my favourite, although everything tasted good. We'll definitely be back again soon!

Came into Lazy Sundae and was very impressed with the interior and cleanliness of the place. There are seats and tables. The place do many variety of bubble teas and recently korean snow ice dessert binsoo which is perfect on a hot day! The staff were very kind and helpful. You can chose to have it 50 percent less sweet as well. The bubble teas we got were tasty. Would go again

Random find walking through Windsor. Staff was friendly and let me try the ice cream before deciding. Got a mango mochi croffle. Holiday vibes inside, will definitely be back to try more 😍

Been wanting to try this for a while and finally visited on the morning of the 17th June and left quite disappointed. First of all the two ladies that work there were sat outside chatting and having ice cream and seemed inconvenienced that we decided to walk in. Secondly my ice cream was like 30% ice cream and the rest some sort of chocolate fudge? An Italian flavor I can't recall but had to bin it. Overall a disappointment, the service in particular needs improvement ☹️

Delicious ice-cream with very friendly and professional service. My child is extremely allergic to nuts and the staff ensured that ice-cream was taken from sealed containers and there was no cross contamination. Super impressed!!!

Visited here based on other reviews, and was very glad I did! Badiani serves good quality, authentic Italian gelato, really reminding me of visits to Florence; the coffee flavour was a personal favourite of both myself and my daughter. We'll definitely be back when we're in the area. The staff here were lovely too. I visited here with my young kids, and the two servers - Sophie and Natalia - were brilliant: really warm and welcoming, knowledgeable about the flavours, went the extra mile (including providing extra serviettes just in case, and giving my kids pictures to colour in), and engaged my little ones at just the right level for their ages. Thank you both!

Nice vegan ice cream just here, ordered mango and strawberry sorbet and was amazed by large size of it😅 reccomended

The best gelato in the country, quite similar to the Italian one. Good variety of tastes. The staff is very friendly, and the service is very cordial. They offer you to taste the flavors if you are not sure what to order.

Gave this place a couple of chances, but unfortunately was a really disappointing experience. Staff is nice and friendly and the atmosphere is lovely, but gelato did not feel right. I’m such an ice cream/gelato lover, but here it did not taste as a true gelato. For both me and my husband- felt not creamy, excessively sweet and sort of “sticky” (not sure how to better define that “caramel” texture). Maybe some people would appreciate this particular taste and texture (see in the reviews quite many do), but sure I wouldn’t call this “gelato”.

Was disgusting. I had Badiani gelato before and always love it. This time I hated it and I threw away half of the cup even though I paid 6£ for one. Honestly AVOID IT! My gelato was sandy and had too much powder it got stuck in my throat. I should probably report them. Now it makes me wonder if they make their ice cream from powders and not fresh ingredients.

Reasonable price, good choice of flavours. In my experience pistachio and mint flavours are usually bad (eg pistachio tastes like sugar and mint tastes like artificial mint syrups), but this shop has the good ones. Have been going there for a few years now and they never disappoint.

Very disappointed coming here, with false advertising. Ordered a screwball icecream and once it was made and handed over to me I noticed no bubblegum gum at the bottom, when I questioned why my screwball didn't have the bubblegum at the bottom they repied "that is a screwball with extra sauce" my reply was "sorry but that was the whole point I bought the screwball for the bubblegum at the bottom and I didn't want extra sauce as I wanted the one in the photo you have" and I was hit back with "we don't sell bubblegum and didnt no it needed it" As a ice-cream shop they should have the knowledge to know what one is as its false advertising when they have pictures of it up. So in the end I paid £5 just for a ice-cream in a screwball plastic cup with sauce 🤦🏻‍♀️💁🏻‍♀️ Not going back as they was quite rude to me and I was very polite and tried to educate them with the correct information on what one is and with Google to help, but still got rudeness back. (Attached photo from Google incase anyone's wondering what one is themselves) Hopefully they are more polite to others in future.

Unfortunately this place left us really disappointed. We had two ice creams, the pistachio tasted like bubblegum, it was just extremely sweet, tasting nothing like pistachio and the cones tasted like cardboard. Add to this that they were more that £5 each, I wouldn't recommend.

Amazing Tastes, came here with family and the guy was super friendly. There is like 30 different tastes and the prices are very reasonable.

Rude staff demanding cash not card and struggled to understand a basic ice cream order. Avoid

Amazing flavours of ice cream. When in windsor it's a crime not to have visited this place. Probably the best kept secret in windsor

Was parked outside the shop last night and saw rats going in and out of the shop, was so disgusted, I had to post it here!
