Branston Baked Beans...................
I am very partial to baked beans on toast (covered in cheese) or indeed I have been known to eat them cold straight from the can either way I have always bought Heinz as they are literally the ultimate baked bean. However as Branston Baked Beans have been on special offer in Tesco's recently (buy 4 for £1) I snapped them up and was pleasantly surprised.
The Branston Baked Bean tin design is a lot different from that of the Heinz tin. Of course it still has a picture of some beans on the front but instead of the Heinz green label Branston's is silver and looks just as good as its rival.

Standard Nescafe is around £2.69 for 200g and I'm probably just moody because I buy 2 jars a week (heaving the shopping bill up by £7) but it seems a huge price increase when Nescafe is known as one of the best coffee manufacturers anyway! Rant over, on with the op. :o)
Gold Blend is one ...
Advantages: Relaxing Place to Stop Off Disadvantages: Closes Early
the lovely coffee smell, fresh and ground beans just seem to give of such a welcoming and warm feeling.
The only think which is slightly disappointing is that this shop shuts around 6pm, just when you have finished your expiditions for the day and want to relax with a coffee before dinner and beginning your night entertainment, so this is a slight let down.
*****Food and Drink*****
The food itself is wide ranged, if not slightly expensive. There are a whole selection of sweet and savoury attributes, from simple Weymouth cupcakes, to chocolate toast and sandwiches.
As with the food, the drinks vary in a wide range. Obviously, the speciality it hot drinks, from simple coffee's to latte's, hot chocolates, tea, iced tea - anything you can think of and fancy really. As the staff are so friendly and well trained, they are able to make ...
