Lovely local bakery, a must visit if you are in the area. Most towns in Derby/Burton have these shops. Our business recently moved so it's a local treat even closer to home!

Good bakery, but stuff taking money from client and without changing gloves giving food another client. Sometimes they don't use gloves at all. Quite not what you expect from hygiene best practice. I prefer to pay more but make sure that stuff is aware to change gloves each time when they touch money.

No one can fault the quality of their produce, it's top notch. The staff are brilliant, always friendly and helpful, apart from the odd occasion when they employ someone who is inexperienced and generally younger and don't train them properly, always making mistakes on the till which leads to some customers being overcharged, and has happened to me on several occasions, but refunded. I mostly use the (West Bridgford) shop NG26EN, and i have notice some unsettling changes recently. I go there once or twice-a-week and have to watch what i am being charged. I spend around £15-20 per week and along with other items always buy a breakfast roll of bacon and egg. The price has been £2.90 for a while, but now i have noticed they charge you separately for the egg bumping the price up to £3.15? I'm told the egg is charged on an ''eat-in'' price, but i told the counter staff i don't eat in and asked why the prices have increased, they couldn't tell me. By rights they should display the take out price list on the wall so customers know exactly what they are being charged. I believe this to be a (Trading Standards) requirement. More unsettling is the turnover of staff. As i say they are generally very friendly and efficient but i suspect they are not being treated very well by BIRDS management. Some are expected to do extra unpaid hours, and occasionally are overwhelmed with the amount of customers standing in line waiting to be served. Also i have noticed, they they have been chipping away at the quality of certain products, like the packets of crisps for example, which previously were perfect, and now have been replaced with an inferior harder and less enjoyable ones, which i no longer buy. Cans of iced coffee have also disappeared from the shelves. I would say to management that maybe it's short-sighted of you focusing more on the bottom line and less on the quality of your products and staff which are suffering by your seemingly hard-nosed corporate approach. When taking all the above into consideration, this can only damage the business long term and your famous reputation being a leading bakery, confectioner and food outlet. Definitely room for improvement.

Love Birds food so much, I just wish they would make the Ascot Drive walk in shop bigger with seating which I'm really surprised they've never done seeing as it's the head quarters. This company must be one of the very best managed in Derby, as the company has gone from strength to strength, year on year and doesn't try to go too big too fast and sticks to what it does best offering high quality food to loyal customers.

This is the HQ shop, it was clean and tidy. The staff were friendly and quick to serve. The food was really nice, you can’t really go wrong with Birds- tasty and cheap. The only issue I have is the lack of vegetarian options- and is it clear enough to see what is vegetarian? I don’t want to seem like a pain, holding up the queue, asking what’s veggie, so let’s make it easier for the customer shall we. I grabbed a flat white to, that was nice!

Brought lunch to take home today from mickleover. Whist I love bird's today was not good. There appears to be no brand standard. My tuna roll was spread really thin cucumber was really cut thick not easy to bite into a bread base producer. My husband chicken salad had 1 small peice of lettuce in the middle roll and 2 halves of cucumber 10 ml thick. Think next time we will try bird's near were we live . Consistency of filled bread roll Very disappointing. Next time we will return product maybe to head office in ascot drive.

Firstly I would like to mention the food. The food was decent. I was pleasantly surprised by the portion sizes. Unfortunately I was a bit disappointed with the atmosphere as it took me back to a 1970s hostel. On the positive side the service was impeccable as the woman who served us was lovely. Overall it was decent. Especially decent for the money.

Lovely large Costa with big windows to people watch. Food and service great. Debbie is a real asset to your business and is polite and friendly!! However a supervisor/ manager "Emma" is doing you no favours at all as an organization. Her whole being radiates anger and boredom and she is only borderline civil to both her staff and customers. Having a breakfast in here I had to listen to her slapping paperwork around, huffing and puffing, and generally talking to Debbie like she was less than human. It's blatantly obvious she doesn't want the job , culminating in her telling a member of the public that she had a great break ( presumed holiday) but now she was "back in hell" Go and work elsewhere Emma if you're not fond of your job.
