I'm not quite sure what you mean, Trev.
On the occasions that I've looked through their Windows (from the outside in and vice versa), there have been lots of happy people of both genders sitting eating quality food of all descriptions.
Waitress service so naturally no Linux to stand in.

I’ve heard many good reports about the quality and taste of said pastries & cakes but have not yet tried them myself: best get in there before it’s too late. Hope the one in Southend will still be open next week when we’re down ?

Anne seriously go try they are delish pricey but you get what you pay for.

They should have stuck to cooking cakes instead of the books methinks

Wow, this chain has apparently come and gone without ever showing up on my radar! I've just checked them out and realised my nearest one is an hour's drive away, so that explains why I've never heard of them! Sad they've failed though... food looks yummmmm

If it disappears you will have missed a treat.

I've never heard of them. Typical that I do just as they are closing down.

Mind you, I'm not really into cake, more of a pie man. Did they do pie?

I like pie.

Never used them, so no great loss, we have some cracking bakeries in Batley, but without the fancy name and prices.

I haven't seen pies on the menu, Rob. Sorry.
The eggs Benedict, scrambled eggs with heaps of smoked salmon and other delights are thoroughly recommended, though.
Annie managed patisseries with her brunch..........

Well, the chocolate cream has hit the fan:

This could adversely affect house prices in the affected areas.
Like Bradford.
So perhaps it's time to spend more time on the Thames estuary, Annie?
