An independent bakery has launched breakfast boxes after getting customers queuing out of the door

A popular breakfast and brunch spot, which has locations in Cardiff's Pontcanna and Penarth, has launched a new breakfast venture that regulars will no doubt be delighted about.

Ground Bakery - which is co-owned by MasterChef star Tom Simmons, who is behind the much-loved Cardiff restaurant Thomas by Tom Simmons - announced its new breakfast boxes were on sale.

Customers wanting to beat the queue in the mornings, which is a regular occurance at the bustling joint, to get their Ground Bakery brunch fix in the comfort of their own home and without the need to wait for a seat.

Posting this news on Instagram, Ground wrote: "Introducing you to our new Breakfast Boxes! We know that sometimes there's a little bit of a queue to eat with us on the weekends, we also know that some times it's nice to curl up at home and have a slow morning in your pjs.

"So for those very occasions we've put together the very best bits of Ground in these handy pre-order breakfast packs. Send your pre-order to orders@groundbakery.co.uk with your name, contact info and collection site and we will send you a payment link to secure yours."

With two breakfast box options available, the Continental Breakfast Box and Our Cook at Home Breakfast Box - orders for which must be placed by 3pm on Fridays - you'll be eagerly waiting for that lazy Saturday morning to come around so you can tuck in to your very own home made Ground Bakery brunch.

Amy Hudson, manager at Ground Bakery, says of this new project: “We always have queues out the door on the weekends here at Ground so we wanted to cater to a wider market and provide the perfect slow morning, breakfast-in-bed option to all our loyal customers and those who maybe haven’t had chance to dine in with us yet. We think these two breakfast boxes provide the very best of our house brunch options to enjoy at your leisure”

What's in the boxes?

A Continental Breakfast Box, which feeds two and costs £25 features two cold pressed orange juices, two croissants, one litre of organic milk, one small sourdough loaf, two portions of ground granola, one pot of Penylan Preserves. For a family of four you can get two boxes for £40.

The Our Cook at Home Breakfast Box for two people at £30 includes two cold pressed orange juices, two portions of house beans, two portions of overnight bacon, two portions of organic halloumi, two sausages, one small sourdough loaf, six eggs. For a family of four, needing two boxes, it's £50.

Collection can be from both the Pontcanna and Penarth locations after 10am on the weekend. And it seems that the locals are ecstatic for this new addition to the much-loved cafe. One Instagram user commented on the post: "How good does this look?!", while another said: "Love this idea!"
