Unfortunately a view long gone, the bakery closed many years ago, leaving Islay without a bakery. Recently a small bread baker has started up, but there is no full time baker on Islay at the moment.

Same here. Wonderful bread and all sorts of other things you could buy.

@MarySwanson543 you’re not the only one, I think
Many years ago, we used to stay at ‘The Inns’ – opposite and now owned by the Harbour Inn – and we nipped across in the morning for fresh bread and rolls for breakfast. Delicious!

I remember when Lexie Currie was the baker in Bowmore, and his shop was beside Hodkinsons. He was a great baker and used to make beautifully decorated wedding cakes, which he displayed in the shop window. Once I went to his daughter Mary’s birthday party and the spread was incredible! We all ate far too much.
