Wondering if anyone has used this delivery service and if so, how was it?  Have read mixed reviews.

Adding that in case I'm not the only person who didn't know what they deliver!

Now I know, sadly I'm not really into "artisan breakfast goods", not do I want to double my weight 🤣

I'm considering using a fruit and veg delivery service again, because I don't eat enough veg these days.

I used to use Oddbox, but the quality deteriorated badly unfortunately (it was always wonky etc veg, which was fine, but I think they must have changed their sources or their quality control or something).

Adding info

Thanks @Sue I had no idea what they delivered.

Personally I just dont get why anyone living in London would bother with something like this, We can all pop down the road and buy bread, pastries etc and know what we're getting..

Just seems a bit of a yuppie fad and waste of money.

But thats just my opinion!

We used them for quite a while. Was great when working a LOT, to be able to have fresh bread, coffeee beans and a pastry on saturday morning. Once I started working less it was less of an issue and I pick things up from the shops. 
It was great service, they were really responsive when things went wrong. Would recommend them.

Reading The words 'Artisan'  and 'Curated' when refering to my 'Breakfast Bundle' frankly make me feel a bit..🤢

I’ve been ordering from Butter & Crust now for 5+ years and it’s a brilliant service. The bread is fantastic as are the selection of pastries, milk & butter. The apple juice is also incredible and you can change your subscription to what suits you - I opt for every other week ☺️

I would recommend Coopers bakehouse, which offer a similar service to B&C but it’s just focussed on really good bread, decent prices and keeps for ages (also freezes well).  Delivered by bike.

Yes, they sound excellent.

    I’ve asked them where they get their bread from, or if they bake it, and they won’t answer. Which is disappointing 

    I’ve been looking at their website from time to time over the last few years and I was sure that at least one loaf - the signature sourdough - is supplied by the BreadBread bakery who are at a lot of markets at weekends and who used to have a small cafe bakery shop in Brixton Market. I used to go there specifically to get their bread.   They are also affiliated with Franco Manca.  That was the first FM, co-founded by Bridget Hugo, who died last year. BreadBread also supplied the bread for the now closed Crooked Well pub restaurant (but now open under a different name - The Kerfield Arms)  in Grove Lane SE5.  Not sure where the pastries come from but it doesn’t seem possible to choose which ones to have delivered.  I do think they chop and change the suppliers from time to time.  I like the look of the (expensive) crullers they sometimes have plus granola, the savoury pastries and expensive bagels.  They frequently have special offers for a first delivery.  40% is the highest discount I’ve seen so far.

  • I too would be worried about a fox being an opportunist.

That's very odd if they won't answer.

Do they just say "no, we won't tell you that"?

I can understand they wouldn't want you to get the bread direct from their source instead of from them, but why not just say that?

If they baked it themselves, I imagine they would be only too happy to let people know.

    • Why not get a real poodle.  They can be clipped to look like a cockapoo if you like.  They don’t need to be in a show clip.  They don’t shed.    Both breeds would need regular grooming.  I have/had friends with very charming poodles both medium and standard so see if you can make the acquaintance of some.  
    • How did you manage to outwit your resident fox?
    • They're both names that have stuck in my mind, Lukasz particularly.  These searches may well be helpful to you.   From a cursory look, I think Pawel's appearance in the 2015 'Rogue trader warning'  isn't to his detriment. https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/search/?q= Lukasz&quick=1 https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/search/?q=Pawel&quick=1
    • Hi - I posted a request for some help with a stuck door and possible leaky roof. I had responses from Lukasz at Look_as.com and Pawel at Sublime Builders. I don't see any/many reviews - has anyone used either person?  Could use a recommendation rather then just being contact by the tradespeople... Many Thanks
