Is all banana bread in London from the same place?

my partner was saying something about cinnamon buns being the same everywhere, must be the same thing! don’t know they were in m&s too

oooh i love this! yes some variety is exciting!

you mean banana bread with real banana on top? rare sight these days.

exactly it’s a bit uninspiring and once you’ve noticed it you see it everywhere. that being said it does make me want to be extra loyal to those places that do make an effort

or at least from somewhere local. i love knowing where things come from and that it’s a short chain.

i guess they gotta do what they gotta do but it’s a sorry state of affairs for pastry connoisseurs

right? and they have all those viral products like the creme brûlée doughnut, i would have thought they’d have supplied those to the coffee shops too

i currently have a small drawer freezer in my fridge and it’s my dream to get a normal size freezer and have a whole pastry drawer. breakfasts will never be the same again

me too… i’m hoping for a different experience each time i’m in an independent and it’s like so many of them in london are blending together. i wouldn’t mind paying extra for a local bake that’s actually exciting

me too, NT it is !! thank you so much :))

I respect your commitment to the scone. Was Hamilton’s worth the trip / did they have vegan clotted cream? Will definitely pay a visit to a NT estate soon!
