Good morning!
Since you folks INHALE our croissants (thank you!!) I'm making more. βΊοΈπ We've improved the way we make them over the last few years, AND they are twice the size they used to be.
We have both butter, and vegan croissants - and both available as a regular roll up, and a pain au chocolat. They're available frozen for you to bake at home any day, or you can call us 3 hours in advance of when you're going to pick up, and we can bake them for you (minimum of 6).
We also bake them fresh Fridays and Saturdays - first come first served.
AND! We use our left over cuttings to make wee turkey sausage rolls (they can be a bit addictive, so mind how you go on those π)

Uh oh... oh boy.
So, bear with us for the foreseeable future, friends. We have 2 injured arms, and a 3rd person with a badly bruised finger.

We're still plugging away and doing our best. Kudos to the girls for still coming in and doing what they can. ππ
The rest of us are considering wrapping ourselves in bubble wrap, just in case

Wayhey!!
This week's snack... sweet and spicy gochujang crunchers! ππ
*whispers* if the spicy part puts you off, fear not! Tis very low... a mild heat. Just a superb flavouring of gochujang.
We also have their dill pickle, sour cream and onion (a bag of which I have also opened and mixed the gochujang into... don't judge me!!), BBQ, and salt and vinegar.
Enjoy them all straight from the bag or add them to a charcuterie board, slice some cheese, dip 'em, crumble them into a salad or over a pasta or slice of pizza...
What are you doing with yours?

Good morning, beautiful people!
What a stunning holiday weekend it is shaping up to be! ππ₯°
Are you travelling? You need road snacks and drinks - we have tons of snacks featuring a real crowd-pleaser Weekender (yup, they're back!) potato chips. You get 4 kinds of chips in one bag: salt and vinegar, sea salt and cracked pepper, smokin' sweet BBQ, sweet and spicy jalapeΓ±o.
For the drive up grab yourself some non-alcoholic bevvies like sparkling juices Orchard apple, Ontario pear (we also have their Sour Cherry, I just didn't have enough arms to carry it out with the rest), and then when you have arrived at your destination, crack open their Eve Goes Badass (cider steeped in cayenne pepper for a little heat), or their classic Forest Garden.
We also have other ciders, wine, beer... all gluten free!
And now... the 'fine print':
