42nd East Bakehouse sits right on Stow-on-the-Wold's market square, making it a straightforward spot to grab something whenever hunger strikes.
Start your morning with fresh pastries and coffee, or pop in for lunch while exploring the town. The menu features freshly baked goods, light meals, and sandwiches with hot and cold drinks available, and you can either sit down or take something away with you.
Stow itself is worth spending proper time in. The town grew up around this broad market square as a wool trading centre, with sheep fairs once held here regularly, and you can still feel that history woven through the place. After eating, you'll find plenty to do browsing the independent shops and antique dealers scattered around, or simply wandering the streets to absorb the character of one of the Cotswolds' most distinctive towns.
Being centrally positioned in the region, Stow works well as a base for exploring further afield. You're well-placed for trips to Bourton-on-the-Water, the Slaughters, or Broadway, all within easy reach. Whether you need a quick coffee break or something more substantial, this bakehouse sits at the heart of things and provides a convenient pause while you're in the area.
