Was Charles and Susan at Flour Bean a mag?
We came to Aylsham on the Bure Valley Railway from Wroxham and had been wandering around for a couple of hours. A seat in the market place became free and my wife fetched drinks and a Norfolk Shortbread from here. The cake was good and my wife said that she'd received the best most friendly service since lockdown began. View all feedback.

What D4696HSjohnp dislikes about Flour Bean:
The woman working at the counter was very disrespectful and spoke to us as if we were children. The pasty cost £3.30, but the rudeness was not worth it. I do not plan on going back. View all feedback.

Good hot chocolate and coffee and a nice selection of baked goods. Situated in a great place in the town centre, easy to access.

Popped in for a bit to eat on a Saturday lunchtime we both had the chicken, bacon and leak Cornish pasty which was excellent. Friendly service

My family and I have enjoyed breakfast at this restaurant numerous times, as well as purchasing rolls, cakes, and sausage rolls. The quality is always top-notch and the hot drinks are also very good.

What a gem of a store! I have lived in Aylsham for a long time and have used this shop in the past. I recently visited and was blown away by the variety of delicious offerings. The bread is fantastic, they have a selection of hot food, an assortment of drinks, and the ready-made rolls look amazing. The staff is very helpful and efficient. The cakes, especially the Belgian buns, are the best in town. I think I may be addicted to them as they are simply delicious, fresh, and soft. Now that I have discovered this shop, I will definitely be returning more often. It's a shame they don't open earlier so I could treat my friends at work, but they will just have to buy their own! Do you happen to offer any gluten-free options?
