Baguette Du Monde

I tend to avoid chain shops and restaurants if I can help it. My philosophy is that if you’ve been in one, you’ve seen pretty much everything they have to offer.
Baguette du Monde tends to eschew this principle, based in part on the diversity of the franchise holders. I’ve already reviewed one BdM outlet in Birmingham, but I’ve had the chance to give this particular one a bit more of a look-​in recently, and am fast growing to love it.
When I first visited this sandwich shop, I came away thinking that their choice was a bit poor, and their prices were unnecessarily high. Having given them another chance a couple of years later, I know that the opposite is now the case. They now stock an extensive selection of hot and cold food, including pastries, quesadillas, jacket spuds and more, all priced favourably when compared to much of the surrounding area.
To address the point made by the previous reviewer, while the staff are certainly not from Britain originally, I’d hardly call what they speak «broken English». Either they’ve gotten rid of whoever was rude to that person, or maybe I’m just lucky. They’ve never gotten my order wrong, and have always been very polite to me.
