About Us

There has been a bakery on the Tilleys site several decades. A lot of long standing Hythe residents will remember Wilkins the Bakers who were here from the late 60s until the company closed. Alan Richards, an ex-Wilkins baker, took the opportunity to buy the lease for their Hythe branch from Wilkins and opened Tilleys in 1988.

The name came from Alan's wife Heather, whose nickname is Tilley. The business was always a family affair, with six members of the family working there over the years. But after nearly 30 years Alan decided it was time to hang up his dough hook and the business was bought by Joanne and Wayne FitzGerald.

After a brief closure for a refit Tilleys was re-launched in May 2017 with a fresh new look.

Come in and see the new Tilleys and try our tasty range of bread, cakes, pies and pasties, as well as a range of fresh sandwiches and jacket potatoes for lunch.

Probably the best bakery in the UK and I have been to a few. Fresh rolls/baps/sandwiches, pasty’s, pies and sausage rolls, along with fresh and artificial cream cakes. If you go to Hythe, please go support this independent shop 😘

AMAZING BAKERY! super cakes, bread and the most friendly and helpful staff. I had a cinnamon and apple cake yesterday and words can't describe how amazing it was, thank you. The rest of the cakes we purchased yesterday were also lovely and fresh. Have been coming here years and purchased many cakes including a giant donut man (amazing and great value). Thank you so much and thank you again for the work you do for the community. Highly recommend
