Elizabeth Botham set up her bakery in the ancient fishing port of Whitby over 150 years ago. She began by selling her bread and cakes from a basket at the local market. Botham's traditions are now proudly continued by the fifth generation of her family. We have five shops and three Tea Rooms in Whitby, Sleights & Pickering, North Yorkshire.
We are famous for Whitby Lemon Buns, Yorkshire Brack, Plum Bread, Shah Ginger Biscuits and Chocolate Japonaise 'Japs', although our repertoire includes so much more, including seasonal bakes highly anticipated throughout the year, such as Strawberry Tarts, Winter Brack and Easter Simnel Cakes. We also serve delicious Afternoon Tea in our traditional Tea Rooms - come and join us, a warm welcome awaits!
