I
was delighted to come across a small cheerful specialist sandwich bar and takeaway. At the Baguette Stop the staff are welcoming and polite: smiles all round with a good friendly atmosphere that made me feel very much at home. The menu’s impressive, ranging from sandwiches and baguettes (hot or cold) on white or wholemeal bread, to oven baked jacket potatoes and springy freshly-made salads, together with a tempting selection of hot or cold drinks. I ordered a chicken and bacon melt while Becks went for the jacket potato with cheese and baked beans. Once I had placed and paid for my order we took seats because we were eating in, but there’s also plenty of space to wait if you’re taking away. The seating arrangement was well organised and when our food arrived we were left in peace to enjoy our meal. My chicken and bacon melt was bang on, and not overfilled; there was just the right amount to enjoy without feeling stuffed. The chicken had a wonderful flavour to it and the cheese was mature without being overpowering. Becks said that her jacket potato was soft and fluffy and that the skin had a brilliant crispiness. Again, the amount of filling was just right: enough to enjoy but not so much that there was anything left to waste. I was really pleased that we were asked if we’d enjoyed our meal, and whether everything was ok. It made a difference. The Baguette Stop is spotless (gold star!) and a quick glance at other customers showed they were enjoying the experience as much as we did.
