"Chatsworth Bakehouse’s line is less of a queue and more a convention of people who take Guinness cake seriously. Cereal cookies are talked about in hushed tones and the Trek-wielding Crystal Palace local next to you is more than happy to give the lowdown on the perfect order—foccacia will feature. Set an alarm for 12:20pm on Monday and refresh the pre-order page until you see the sandwich drop, then load up your basket ahead of time. At 12:30pm you can order. We found that using Google or Apple Pay saves precious seconds. Aim for Wednesday or Thursday pick-up days. Scrapping for Friday is a fool’s game. If you miss out, consider the walk-in menu—we’d suggest arriving 20 or so minutes before they open." - jake missing, sinead cranna, rianne shlebak, heidi lauth beasley
