Fabulous bakery. Well located near Electric Bear brewery, our end point of walking from Bristol, so perfect to pick up lunch and tasty snacks. Recently visited and the baklava absolutely blew us away, the best sweet thing I've eaten all year and will take some beating! We also got a freshly made sandwich which was pretty nice and a large steak pasty which was gigantic. Few seats outside and lovely service, highly recommended!

Best bacon sandwich I’ve ever had. Great position just off the cycle path.
