42nd East Bakehouse

I applied for a full time job because I needed it to be able to sustain myself and my mum but instead on my first official day I was told that the job was 5 hours every Wednesday for 6.83p/h. I stuck with it as I enjoyed the environment and the customers were lovely but unfortunately this was not enough for me to stay for long. I soon realised that I was just doing my manager's job for what I assume is likely almost half her pay plus the owners are truly some of the worst businessmen on earth. The day before I started my first shift by myself, they decided that we only had 15-30 minutes to clean up and hand in our handovers, on top of this we were also not allowed to use the bathroom during shifts and we were expected to come in early and stay in late every day-all unpaid. The shop in Scarborough is quite hidden so on off-peak there aren't as many customers, but the owners don't seem to understand this as they would regularly post rude or passive agressive messages in the chat whenever we didn't make as much money as they expected. The stressful work environment caused by the owners on top of the absolutely disgraceful pay plus the fact that I was left to do 4 days of work by myself 2 days after I started with little to no training because my manager went on holiday as well the fact that the food being sold was genuinely sickening made this the worst job I've ever had-and I've literally had to clean up donkey feces. Oh and after I quit, I fell ill and was bedridden for a few days which meant I couldn't return my key. Due to this, the owners threatened to make me pay for a new lock and key for the building.

Tasteless, dry and stale!! For over 10 for a cookie pie was awful

Tried the Red Velvet Cookie Dough Pie. Dissappointed, thought it would be a lot better for the price. Hard texture, not a lot of flavour, particularly compared to the usual Red Velvet cake. I agree with the previous review, tasted like a mass of sugar.
