Stopped in yesterday while visiting Halifax, the kids were very excited for a sausage roll ( missing home). The store was very disappointing unless you want biscuits very little else on the shelves. The sausage rolls were cold and stale - I suspect they had been frozen first. Pastry was dense and dry, the very little pork meat was bland with no seasoning. Husband got a scotch egg after one bite he put it in the bin - with the rolls - saying it was a mushy texture and no flavour.
A great place to shop for all things British. Love their scones, pastries and warm sausage rolls. They have a wonderful variety of frozen items and their meat pies are delicious. Always a great experience when I stop in.
Great spot for British treats and specialty items. Wish they had empire biscuits but the potato scones make up for it.
So bloody good. I heard through the grapevine you made sausage savouries for DNR and they were amazing, please make these a regular item, I love the bacon ones. Bravo keep up the amazing work team
Such a great place! If your British your going to love it there. They have everything from black pudding to shortbread. Staff are super friendly and helpful. My only problem was trying not to spend too much!
Great products, friendly and funny staff and the best social media posts ever :) Their meat pies and pasties are delicious and addictive. I also have a bit of a problem with their baked sweet treats, especially the bakewell tarts.
Every time I've visited the service, and products, have been incredible!
Only problem is that availability of Scottish black pudding is sporadic and kippers have not been available for ages. The staff however are great.
Being Irish it’s being hard to find good food and snacks from back home,but this place hits the nail on the head everytime. All the snacks and goodies you need for chocolate to chips to drinks to pastries they got you covered. The pies are to die for and the sausage tools are the closest I’ve tasted to being like back home and are delicious.always try to get in when I’m in the neighborhood,staff are amazing and friendly ,love this place
We're so happy to have found this store. The store carries a lot excellent pantry items. The baked goods, muffins, tarts, pasties, veggie pies, meat pies, etc., are stellar. They are made in store and everything we got was fabulous. The very nice, Scottish young man who helped us was delightful.

The experince was great.
The pastry was out of this world and the staff we're nice.
The pastys were really tasty
The pies were great
We recently tried this bakery for the first time. Our kid really enjoyed the banana chocolate chip muffin, and so we’d purchase that again. However, the éclair was disappointing and bland. We were told at the counter that it had been frozen and needed a few hours to thaw, so we brought it home and refrigerated it. While the muffin was great, the éclair left us hesitant to try any other items, as we’d rather not risk spending more on baked goods that lack in flavor!
