Local ingredients.
Where possible we source the ingredients for our baking from local suppliers. We get our meat from Papworth butchers in Fakenham, our fruit and vegetables from Dereham and our bread from Krusty Loaf in Fakenham/Holt. By offering local food made from local ingredients we can truly say that you are getting a taste of Norfolk when you visit Guist General Store and our Café.
Our coffees.
We like to pride ourselves on our coffee, we use a manual machine so that we can tailor make each coffee to the individuals taste.
We offer varying styles, such as Lattes, Cappuccinos, Flat Whites and espressos; sizes, flavour shots, such as Caramel, Vanilla, Hazelnut and more. We also do a range of Hot Chocolates and Mochas made using melted chocolate and steamed milk.
Other goods.
Our teas
We offer a wide range teas which deliver a refreshing and distinctive taste including the all new Norfolk Tea. We try and cater to as many people as possible, from your standard English Breakfast & Earl Grey to the more exotic Camomile. If you have a personal preference to your tea, such as lemon on the side, a dash of honey or just a simple thing like milk with your earl grey, we will always try our best to meet your needs.
In order to offer that little bit extra we do as much of our baking on site as possible. Our cakes are made using traditional recipes and can be eaten in or taken away. Our snacks, such as Flapjacks, Brownies and Scones are all prepared and baked as needed to offer the right balance of distinctive flavours and quality freshness. We also offer a range of hot food, all of which is home made and served to order.
Home baking
We have opened our Café area to include a wide range of gift and home items from a range of local small businesses.
