Popular Shropshire bakery opens on extra days due to 'incredible' demand
A bakery and coffee shop is set to open for an extra two days a week after an "incredible response" from a market town's shoppers.
The Pastry Box, based in Newport Indoor Market, have now extended their opening hours to include Wednesdays and Thursdays between 8am and 4pm - in addition to their normal Friday and Saturday trading days.
The company, which also runs a bakery in Wem, has grown steadily since opening up in Newport in 2020 - and now produces all its baked goods on-site, meaning every pork pie, custard tart, and chelsea bun is made just a flight of stairs away before making its way down to the stall.
Now, co-owner Dan Smith says the extended hours will give Newport customers even more chance to enjoy the firm's tasty baked treats.
