Uprising Breads Bakery at Venables & Commercial

This is a bakery that sells drinks and sandwiches - and I mean sandwiches, not fancy panini - rather than being just a cafe or coffee shop. As a consequence, there is a wonderful and enticing array of baked goods on display. It also means that the decor is focused on the functional, and all the indoor seating areas are dominated by a large serving and display area. Even so, there's a nice vibe to the place and the steady stream of customers is a positive sign.

My drink, a large Americano, was wonderful and my friend rated the chai latte extremely highly: "one of the best I've ever had".

We shared a sandwich and a pastry. The sandwich was acceptable everyday quality - wrapped, not made to order. The almond croissant was quite yummy, and generously filled.

Even though it was a weekday lunchtime there was enough indoor seating, plus a few open spots outside. Noise levels were great: just a pleasant humm of conversation, and not much intrusion of either street noise or kitchen noise.

Staff were friendly and efficient, and helped each other out to move the orders along.
