I would love to own a business like that. The prices seem reasonable too.

Cheese savoury baguette at 1.87, and egg and tomato at 1.40 are ok. Their limited edition egg mayo with cracked pepper @ 1.25 was a gem and I hope they bring it back. My mate bought his daughter a bag of giant Halloween cookies (55p) to bribe her to show him how to work his computer. Greggs has usurped Sayers' pole position for pastry and bread-inspired comfort food. The only time I go to Sayers is if the queue for Greggs is longer than 30 people..
