Interesting opinion piece from someone that actually knows what they're talking about when it comes to the economics of running a small restaurant: https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2023/may/29/running-a-small-restaurant-britain-sales-covid-inflation

Finally got to try the bread from Eric's today. I can confirm that it is very good. 

Thanks Earl, good to know, I was a little confused by the thread which appeared to be all about small independent traders.  The Cheese Block is doing more bread nowadays so I expect that many of us want something better than Mothers Pride (if it still exists)

That’ll be the investors, as the bakery was entirely crowdfunded.

— they were promised “freebies” at the opening.

Cafes/Bakeries like this don’t last. They’ll end up just like all of the rest that have graced us for all 5 seconds.

My advice, stop slapping paint & a name on vacant buildings. Do your research & learn why the previous establishment did not last.

 

Oh!

    • Thanks penguin  always wondered about that place and that’s way more info than I ever thought I would get  (used to live above a gun nut on friern road - he would tell me nothing)
    • There was a Saturday afternoon crowd of enthusiasts, and at other times the owner might have been off acquiring stock. He also repaired air guns, which he also sold. He stocked edged weapons, uniforms, including antique uniforms, air guns and ammo and starting pistols and shot. Some medals and other militaria. Quite a lot of ex service chit chat on a Saturday. I had an amateur interest, didn't deal a lot, in English pattern swords and other mainly 19th century militaria. And made some good purchases there. I'm afraid WWII and later events was the major focus of most of the regulars. 
    • Did anyone actually venture in to that place? I recall it always being closed/very uninviting!
