"We got a steak and kidney pie and a sausage roll. Food was quite nice, it was hot and fresh which is more than I can say for the large commercial bakery nearby. It's a shame that you have to pay 50¢ for sauce though when other places give it away for free. Overall I would definitely consider stoppin"
"One of the most disappointing Banh Mi I've had. Pâté was dry and not fresh, dark on the surface that was open to air in the container. Cucumber soggy, carrot and bread were okay. Pork was reasonable. Staff are friendly."
