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.

    • As a result of the Horizon scandal it now seems very clear that the Post Office management are highly disingenuous and not be trusted!  There needs to be a campaign launched to challenge the threatened closure, unless the Post Office can demonstrate beyond doubt that the branch is loss making - and even then it could argued that better management could address this. I hope the local media take this up and our MP  and a few demonstrations outside wouldn’t do any harm. Bad publicity can be very effective!         
    • Unlikely. It would take a little more than a bit of Milton to alter the pH of eighty-odd thousand gallons of water.
    • It actually feels as though what I said is being analytically analysed word by word, almost letter by better. I really don't believe that I should have to explain myself to the level it seems someone wants me to. Clearly someones been watching way too much Big Brother. 
    • Sadly they don't do the full range of post office services
