Mrs B, baby B and myself found this place completely fortuitously whilst strolling the high street. We sat down in the lovely back yard deck next to the bar and enjoyed a pot and one of 'Mum's homemade vanilla slices' in the lunchtime sun. I reckon Mum might have made this; with very homemade puffed pastry and an overly sweet pudding mix cream filling. A thin layer of strawberry (I think) jam made the whole thing even sweeter, so much so that I had to leave two mouthfuls of the giant portion. Whilst this thing was fun to pull apart and chomp, it was not how I like my vanilla slices these days. I admire the effort made to put put authentic home baked cakes in such a unique setting.

$6.50 is arrogantly priced for what you described !!. Your heading into dangerous territory byron when you start with decimals. Love your unfaltering work...
