Well, in simple terms - we want our vulnerable customers to still shop with us, we don’t want to catch Covid and we certainly don’t want long Covid, we don’t want to have to close the shop and stop boat trips - we’ve been so careful for so long, we don’t want to fall at the final hurdle - we’re just a small team and if one or more of us had to isolate, we would have to close the shop - we don’t have anyone to cover for us. So we will be continuing to wear face masks (all day, even in this stifling heat) and politely ask that customers kindly wear one too if coming into the shop. If you don’t want to wear one, just order from the door and we’ll be more than happy to serve you this way. Thank you all for the support and understanding you’ve shown us so far. We know not everyone will agree, but from the conversations we’ve been having with customers over the last week or two, we feel the majority of you are in agreement. New - 4 cupcake gift box… today, blueberry and lemon cupcakes. (Fully compostable packaging, including the window) This is the most phenomenal sandwich we’ve produced yet - I can’t explain how delicious it is…. Where do we start - roasted mushroom, peanut butter, shredded red cabbage and carrot, pickled chilli, crushed cashews, coriander and mint. It’s a taste sensation. Our version of a vegan #bánhmì Wet Saturday morning? - we have hot coffee and delicious cake….
