Sainsbury's bakery on Dog Kennel Hill.


Had a weird experience last time I went. I put 2 rolls in a bag and spun it round while holding the corners to seal the bag as you do. Unfortunately I learned that the bottom of their paper bags are extremely weak and the 2 rolls went through the bottom and got launched across the shop much to the unamusement of a passerby.


So I changed the rolls for a seeded crusty baton. Did not regret, it tasted exquisite going into the next day and was finished off the day after.

Wish I could agree with you Twoddle but like Sally I have found white bread these days doughy rather like chewing putty. Push a baton and you finger sinks into it


Why is it crusty bread abroad is just that crusty.


Perhaps it is to do with age you remember how good things were when not mass produced .


Feel you will have a lot of trouble retrying to find bread of yesterday year.

Daft response, but have you tried making a small crusty cobb yourself to get both that fresh baked experience and a bit of shelf life ?


Barry's off-licence often has a few crusty loaves in that last 2 or 3 days, can't guarantee they are white, brown or seeded but worth a look

I have just the thing for crusty white bread - craft butter! I’ve been making small batch craft butter artisian wrapped in muslin and hand tied - I’ll be selling it at the Cheese Block and also at my new pop-up stall on North Cross Road on Saturdays. It’s called ‘Bob’s Best Butter’.

I saw that Peckham Organics in Rye Lane stock your bread so will pop down there and grab a loaf.

    • Hope all the ‘high streets for people’ events went well! Very short notice probably for people living in the area and on a very hot day!  James McAsh just doesn’t know what to do next with Southwark Council Tax payers money. He advocates the few streets in the area that has a bus service and then shuts the routes down! Very annoying for people who want to go about their daily business and have already had restrictions brought in by McAsh. 
    • Thank goodness for Greg. I had an awful situation whereby I was notified that water was leaking from my flat into the flat below me. I was 150 miles away at the time and had a panicked journey home not knowing what I was going to face.   I called Greg (after seeing reviews on the forum) as soon as I arrived home in the evening and he arrived just after 10pm and was able to shut off the problem. He had to come back to finalise the job which turned out to be caused in a communal area whereby there was a blockage in the stack pipe.   Greg worked quickly, efficiently and informed me every step of the way as to what he was doing and why. He also cleaned up really well afterwards.  Greg's charges are very reasonable and he will definitely be my "go-to" if I have any other plumbing issues in the future.
