As usual, each year after summer I
look at our trading data and make slight adjustments to our opening times.

This is mainly based on when we open rather than when we close, and when I see customer demand changing from 4pm to 4.30pm.

These hours then stay the same throughout autumn and winter.

With rising energy costs, even a
30 minute change can make a big difference to our overheads and helps us make the most of our busier trading periods.

From this week here are the opening times. Thank you for your continued custom and support Sarah

Tuesday–Thursday 4.30pm - 7.30pm
Friday–Saturday 4.30pm - 8.00pm

The weather's not great but the gardens need the rain,

Just to let everyone know we are now serving as we used to, at the counter main entrance.

So if you see the light off the other side,we are still open just use the main door please.

Ooooh, nice shiny new till, my precious 🤣

Thank you

Pure no filter, no Ai edited chips, now that's a lovely looking sight. 😁😅

From it's pure form, a potato, to a beautiful mouthful of chips all prepared here in the shop.

Just add salt and vinegar a couple of slices of bread and butter and the perfect mouth watering brechdan/sandwich is created 😄 be careful not to let the butter drip down your chin 🤣

Open at 4pm today

Well, here we are, the last week of the summer holidays, thank you to everyone who has visited us this summer, please keep supporting us this last week and make it a summer to remember.

Cai and Logan both passed their GCSEs and will be starting college in September, Alyssa finally got a holiday (I think), I lost 4 weeks of working due to a burnt hand, Claire just continues smiling, however, sadly for us she will be leaving at the end of summer after 6 years of being here, (I'm sad 😢 ), Jacob came back for summer and was his usual marvelous self, he returns to university in September and poor Ken, calmly surveying the chaos around him 🤣🤔 and is looking forward to his annual trip to Scotland, not forgetting our new recruit Leon, working hard to prepare the best potatoes for our chips and keep the back room and dishes clean and washed.

We open at 4 all week, look forward to seeing you all and thank you for your continued support.

Diolch y fawr iawn
