If you come here and have the carrot cake your whole day will be perfect
Pastries there is amazing and what you pay for is worth. but the brioche bun with chicken was a little pricy unless they actually made their own bun? Otherwise is just some chicken with nice mayo in a bun with fresh lettuce. I found most of the savoury pastries or sandwiches there are on the small side with the amount they are charging in my opinion..the cardamom bun and the banana muffins were good but were not many Vegan options. Also had a leek pie with bacon and cheese. A touch bigger would have been very satisfied.
Some people in Norwich speak about Bread Source with the same degree of wonder as those fortunate few, who have witnessed an apparition of our Blessed Lady.
I am not so easily enamoured. After a certain age, butterflies and the magic of yeast, flour and sugar tend to pass you by.
You expect to see butterflies without having to endure caterpillars and enjoy bread without having to kiss the bakers apron.
The bread and pastries are fine, what is not so fine are the staff. Often they behave as if they are celebrities and you are just another grubby trucker troubling them for their autographs.
One redeeming exception to this charmless morass is the young staff member called Wesley. This young man works hard, shows attention to detail and can easily be prevailed upon to smile.
I hope that the rest of the team at Bread Source learn from Wesley.
Dealing with customers, many of whom can be casually rude is not easy. But charm is an underrated quality and will be more useful in your future career than many of the courses you spent years studying in school and college.
