Do you have a Gails?

Ealing Broadway has one. Some of the stuff is quite nice but prices are too steep compared to the little independent bakery just over the road

The food is probably nicer and cheaper.

it IS ,indeed, excellent, though i can't compare the two since i know not of this 'Gail's' of which you speak

[Uncle Albert]

We do have one which is always busier than NLUK at Grimsby docks on a bank holiday weekend.

Mrs Albert seems to like it. I'd have to overcome my inherent dislike of other people before I ventured in.

Yes, we have just been Gail'ed.
Some of the locals had a "protest" if you can call it that.
One of the local crackpots even set up a Facebook group.
Anyway it Opened a few weeks ago.
I'm more of a Gregs man myself but Gails was heaving when I went past the other day. I don't know why.

Seems no-one can explain the mystery of Gails

back in my day the upper middle class women used to bonk the personal trainer or the plumber while the husband was out work, may be visiting Gails is the new vice or the new abibi?!

I went into a Gail's for the first time recently and bought a hot chocolate. £5 for a tiny cup. Half decent tasting.

Awful value for money though, I won't be returning.
