There's a new name, a new look and a reworked menu but all the familiar faces remain after a takeover of The Bakehouse, Sherwood's popular cafe and bakery. After changing hands it has become Good Honest Bakery, sporting a fresh coral frontage in Mansfield Road.
The new owner, Greg Campher, previously had close links with the business when it was run by Craig and Rosea Poynter, who quit to enjoy more family time. He has a stake in Outpost, the company that supplied the coffee from a roastery in Lenton and will continue to do so.
After a brief closure for redecoration, the cafe is back open once again serving the bread it's renowned for and delicious cakes, all baked on site. Freshly out of the oven loaves of sourdough, ciabatta and focaccia line the shelves, next to empanadas filled with beef and olive or spiced chickpeas.
