Local Artisan bakery...

if its anything like the artisan chocolate place( run by hipster twins who were ridiculed in article) in shoreditch, read about it in sunday times- 17 quid for 200g bar !!!!!

so im going a tenner

Depends where local is, £3.50 would be pushing it.

Close saddo... For the loaf!

I wouldn't pay £3.50 for a loaf myself GoOnThen.

Well will you or won't you?

The minute you put artisan in front of anything, it means you pay extra for a 5hit product.

Aye, they'd have you thinking it's all dusted with ground unicorn horn.

necastle brown  - A CRAFT ALE  wtf

£6.25 is the answer. I usually only eat bread at the weekend and wife usually brings it in. Sausage rolls are fantastic but at £2.85 a pop so they should be.

never heard of greggs ?

Place near me used to sell hot medium sized sausage rolls for £2.10.  They were the best I have ever tasted though. 90% meat 10% pastry.

90% meat you say old chap but what weight

Funnily enough mm my favourite loaf used to be a harvester from Greggs. However they changed my local one to accommodate more tables, stopped baking bread on site and dramatically cut down their bread offering. Alas my beloved harvester disappeared in the name of progress. That said I've just used a white sliced bought yesterday at the Coop for 50p to make one of these little beauties...

Greggs charge extra 20p or so on sandwiches to sit at a table

If i can walk in buy a sandwich and say take out then sit down would the baker come out and give me what for

Roy Cropper would have a go or Bryan as he dont like people leaving with plastic cups

The Roymeister wouldn't shirk the confrontation.

Worth every penny ...No added chemicals in flour, hand made, no processed machinery,quality sausage meat and supported a local hard working Business ....may it long continue

When Roymeister sells up the cafe will go to the dogs jsut like the butchers when fred i say fred sold up or died

Rex left his job in the city to pursue his passion. Fair play to him. Although judging by his prices I'm not sure his income has suffered too much of a drop.

I watched the video of him making Chocolate Brownies and no gloves ( right turn off to be fair )

But Rex and his team like to save cash and make lotta monies so gloves would put dents in profits i suppose

Thanks Chaser. I didn't look at the website myself.His wife is bit of a sort though if that helps at all.

Bought an artisan loaf about 3 years ago for £3 to see what all the fuss was about.

I expected it to be carp but it was absolutely delicious.

Decided to buy a breadmaking machine and make my own. I now buy the loaf mix readymade, just need to lob it in and switch in on. Fresh bread every Saturday morning - one of the decisions I ever made.

Works out at the same price as a normal loaf

*best

There is no way they make their chocolates like this, so HOW DO THE GET AWAY WITH it?  Grr.

Yes, Jack. I would like to see a film of how they are really made.

Lovely chocs tho'

Ditto,so many quality flours you can buy now and lots of recipes,add meats,cheeses,etc etc,..as they say ''you'll never go back'',best thing since sliced bread.

BigH and sobs.. Most admirable.
On the chocolate front these are the absolute mutz nutz!

i went into this nice italian artisan bakery and asked what was in their fancy breads, they pulled out a business folder with the recipes for each loaf - all of them had soy flour in them? so much for artisan bread. everybody is scrambling to the bottom. Cost counters.

MD,

Go about a minute in..

Thanks, Jack. Some dubious hygiene practices but very interesting.

An uncle of mine had a bakery just outside of Slough , opposite  The Stag. The oven had to be kept going over the Christmas Holiday so he cooked the turkeys for the neighbourhood in it. They were done to perfection.

Your Uncle was a true Gent.
