Both times I've visited the new store, it was full of students and business people taking advantage of its location near Rundle Mall. It's more accessible than the market store and seemed to have a better selection of baked goods.
I had walked by the old Beard Papa shop many times to check the progress of the construction. I have to say this location looks fantastic. It's also very dangerous that it's in walking distance from where I work. Moderation, Nat. Moderation!
Not a huge amount of seating at this location, but there are some extra chairs and tables just outside the doors as you walk into Southern Cross.
Hopefully the King William location won't be the last to be added in Adelaide. It's really handy to have these reasonably priced buttery baked goods close by.
Stores like these were one of my favourite discoveries from travelling in Asia, so I'm stoked that we finally have them here! I went to this store the other day to try it out and it was absolutely packed with people. It was worth the wait - I with very satisfied with my custard filled carbs :)
ReplyDeleteYeah good for the taste buds, bad for the waistline hey! Where did you have similar stuff in Asia? I haven't been to Asia before but if I go there, I'd love to know where to find Breadtop-like treats :)
ReplyDeleteThey are a common sight across Japan and I have seen a few in Singapore too. In Japan they can be found in most big department store food courts which are normally in the basement. I have seen these stores in some train stations as well. They are awesome if you don't speak Japanese because you just pick out what you want and pay for it - no conversation required!
ReplyDeleteThat is really cool. Thanks for the info Kelly!
ReplyDeleteI love this place-thanks bread T, great blog about great food!
