Simmons Bakers - Hoddesdon

Always had lovely food, both savoury and sweet. A couple of times the service has been a little less enthusiastic as other times. Not too much of a bother though, I'm still happy to visit!

Oh yes!! Trays and trays of love made into pastries. Their croissants are the best outside France ( better in some cases). I make this a destination of choice when visiting my son and his family nearby.

Outrageous prices for cold food. I could see the floor was caked in sandwich fillings and bits of rubbish, really put me off. What topped it off was them wiping the sandwich surface crumbs onto the floor.

Good food, great staff but very expensive for bakery food.

Love a Simmons and this is a good one!
Lots of choices of everything here... Really good hot counter and a great selection of cakes.. Service fab as always

Tad pricy but good products!

So many options of yummy things. I haven't been here for a few years but today I really fancied proper bakery food. I had the Newyorker which I loved and having it toasted was a right touch but I knocked a star off as I thought the staff was a tad rude. I pointed at a specific item and asked what it was and she replied "everything's labelled" rather than just telling me - all I could see was the names but had no idea what was inside and luckily I saw that if I looked down the crack of the glass I could actually see the full sign that wasn't fully on show plus it was a pile of all different types of sandwiches so the labels wasn't showing which was which. I will still give them another try as I probably caught them at a bad time and I really did enjoy my food

Lovely raspberry & custard Danish pastries. The focaccias look amazing, shame I was only after a pastry. Great selection of cakes and breads.
