Just popped into Brick St Bakery and not only was the croissant buttery and delish, I also noticed that the pies they had on offer looked gorgeous. Meat and potato, steak and ale and chicken one. Not sure if they're only based in Toronto

Great wee shop - and the most reasonably priced of all the UK shops around here (my family have tried them all! ).

Animal - not sure where you are, but this guy also has his main shop out in Cambridge - or are you the 'other' side of TO?
