When I say that this place is the best around for fresh cakes and sandwiches , I am not kidding. The service is top notch and the ladies who serve are always polite . The food is amazing as I’ve said and I highly recommend anyone to try Doorstep for a break time treat or a quick fresh lunch. Keep up the good work ladies your smashing it.

Really good food, fair prices and lovely staff. Always friendly and remember your order. Can be really busy, which isn't surprising given how nice it is here! The staff all make a real effort to keep their customers happy. You get a real sense of community. I come here most days for lunch and always leave a tip. Not usually one to leave reviews but these ladies fully deserve the 5 stars!

Owner response
Hi Ian, thank you so much for firstly taking the time and trouble to leave a review and secondly for its being such a positive one! We have our fingers crossed that the early start will be a success 🤞🤞 Thank you again
Been using this sandwich-bakery shop for a good couple of years now. Nearly always busy because the staff are such a lovely team and the club sandwich is delicious! Freshly cooked fillings or cold, in freshly sliced doorstop bread are so popular, you will just want to keep going back. But above all those they have this moorish selection of doughnuts!

Awww thank you so much for taking time to leave such a great review it is much appreciated. And I’m with you on the apple doughnuts 😉
One of the best sandwich shops in Basildon (if not, thee best) The quality of their products are top-notch (both hot and cold), the bakery is always clean, and the three ladies that run it are down-to-earth and always friendly, funny, too, yet still keeping professional. We have a good ole laugh when we're in there! (FYI the ham, cheese & red onion toasties are to die for😍)

Thank you Jade!! We really appreciate you taking the time to leave a review especially as it’s such a great one ☺️ We do try really hard to get it right whilst having fun as well. (And your right the toasties I think I pretty epic 😁) Thanks so much again 👍👍
Excellent service, very friendly staff. Got to the point where I go there every day for lunch as I just can't help it 😂 The nicest food from any bakery I've ever been to. Would definitely recommend.

Fabulous breakfast roll, egg bacon and sausage all in a lovely soft seedy torpedo roll, Don't usually like sausages in sandwich but their pork ones are lush, they do also do Cumberland . Definitely recommend.
