Bayon Bakery Hove

You'll find yourself wandering into Hove Park Villas, that quiet tree-lined stretch where the city feels a bit more residential, a bit more real. Bayon's doing proper bread work here—the kind of sourdough that has actual flavour and crust that cracks when you bite it, not that bland supermarket nonsense. Their pastries are consistently excellent too, and the fact they've managed a 4.6 rating across 151 reviews suggests they're doing something genuinely right, not just coasting on Instagram appeal. This is the sort of place you stumble upon and then keep going back to because it's genuinely good, unpretentious, and doesn't feel like it's trying too hard.
