High Lane Oatcakes FAQs

Where are High Lane Oatcakes made?

All of our oatcakes are made in our bakery in Tunstall, Staffordshire, at the heart of the Potteries, where oatcake baking has been part of local life for generations.

When was High Lane Oatcakes established?

High Lane Oatcakes was established in 1980, although the bakery itself has been producing oatcakes for over a century.

Where does your recipe come from?

We inherited an original oatcake recipe when we took over the bakery. Over time, we refined it through testing and tasting to create the recipe we still use today.

When will my order be shipped?

We bake and dispatch orders on set days each week to ensure freshness. Orders placed earlier in the week are typically sent within a few days, while orders placed later may be included in the next baking cycle. If you need more detail, feel free to contact us directly.

How much does delivery cost?

Our standard delivery is £9.50 across the UK. This covers careful packaging and shipping to ensure your oatcakes arrive in the best possible condition.

Can I order High Lane Oatcakes over the phone?

Yes, you can place an order by calling us on 01782 810180, and we’ll be happy to help.

Can I send oatcakes directly to someone as a gift?

Absolutely. Simply enter the recipient’s delivery address at checkout, and we’ll send the oatcakes straight to them.

Why aren’t orders dispatched the same day?

We bake our oatcakes fresh in batches, so orders are prepared around our production schedule rather than sent immediately. This helps us maintain quality and consistency. If you can’t wait, why not order some freshly cooked oatcakes through Just Eat or visit us in store?

How long do oatcakes last?

Oatcakes will stay fresh for a few days in the fridge. For longer storage, we recommend freezing them.

Can I freeze High Lane Oatcakes?

Yes, oatcakes freeze very well. Simply separate them, wrap them, and freeze for up to three months.

How do I reheat oatcakes?

You can warm oatcakes in a frying pan, microwave, grill, or oven. Heating them in a pan gives the best texture.

Can I order oatcakes ready-filled?

Yes, if you are local, you can order freshly filled oatcakes through Just Eat with a wide range of filling options.
