The staff were lovely, the service was good and the food and coffee were excellent value. The only reason I no longer go as often is because it's not as convenient for the friends I breakfast with. Your review has reminded me to check it out again. I love Poppy’s Bakery and used to go there every couple of weeks for breakfast.

But I assure you that we have NEVER gotten paid for any review on this site. A few times the establishment has paid for dinner, but if that happens we tell you about it. Trust me - blogging is not my day job - if I did get paid my restaurants for writing reviews about them, I certainly would have quit my proper office job a long time ago! Also, I'll point out that Poppy's Basket was reviewed well over a year ago, so it could be that the quality has changed somewhat in that time. In the future, please do not be so incredibly rude, and make accusations that are untrue and slanderous. I find it offensive - I am a person too, and this blog is my HOBBY. I do this because I love it. Thanks for reading. Ally Hi Rouven,

You clearly get paid for your reviews by the establishment you are reviewing. This bakery could be in any supermarket and people would not notice the difference. As for the service, absolute codswallop - I went there today, I have had better service from customs staff at an airport. I think you will find that unless you are honest with your reviews, people will soon stop reading them. I don’t think I have ever read such biased dribble.
