Great bakes, small seating area
Review of Kettle and Crumb Bakehouse
Experience in May 2026
The cheese and onion slice was still warm and the coffee was strong. There are only four tables, so on a wet morning you will probably take your order away. Staff were patient while I changed my mind twice.
- What went well
- Warm savouries
- What could be better

It took two weeks and three calls to get a quote. Once booked, the team replaced the cracked slates and repointed the chimney in a day, and sent photos of the work from up on the roof.

Good range, tight aisles
Review of Second Chapter Books
Experience in December 2025
Great selection of non-fiction, especially DIY and architecture. The aisles are narrow, which makes browsing with a pushchair difficult. Prices are fair for the condition.

Fixed three jobs in one visit
Review of Steady Hands Home Repairs
Experience in June 2025
We had a dripping tap, a sticking door and a loose banister. One visit, all three sorted, and he explained what had caused each problem. The quote matched the final bill exactly.
