Food Scene

Award-winning Bakery/cake shop definitely worth a visit. Has featured in several TV shows including the Bake-off! Their Cinnamon Squares are delicious and the best I've ever tasted and I don't even like cinnamon! So if you want to try 'probably' the best Cinnamon Square you have ever tasted, come and try this place (or pop in and take some away with you to eat at home)! The Award-winning 'Ricky Sticky Bun' is also well worth trying! They are legendary and this Bakery got into the Regional Finals of a big TV Baking Competition in 2016! I personally LOVE this place, perhaps a little too much (my waistline would be better if I didn't)!

The Thai food here is second to none (except of course in Thailand)! Try the Prawn Pad Thai and the mixed starter is very good too. Don't expect to be impressed by the venue - this place is all about the food and is definitely lack-lustre in terms of aesthetic appeal as anything more than a place to get a really good and well-priced plate of food. If you want Thai Food in a more attractive setting try Thai Orchid a mile down the road. The foods pretty good there too just somehow not quite the same!

This is a little known hidden gem which you should take time to visit if you love Thai food as it is really, really yummy! Book in advance as even on a Monday night it is heaving. If you don't have a car during your stay, it is a 10 minute taxi drive and you can book the cab for the journey home too before you get out. It is on a quiet residential street and you would not know it was there without local knowledge!
