my family and I live in Shepparton and today we tried the Anzac Biscuits baked at Hide's Bakery for the 1st time. Normally I'm not a big fan of Anzac biscuits like the rest of my family because I've always found them to be over crunchy and very hard when biting into them when we've bought them from other places.

I won’t be back to this store. Which is a shame because I believe in supporting the smaller businesses over big boys. Ie I’ll be buying my bakery needs at Drakes with the rest of my grocery shopping instead of buying bread and cakes...
Read moreTerrible customer service. Went here to grab a coffee and a few cakes to take home for my family and the women behind the counter was more interested in vacuuming the floor. As it was 3pm and she looked like she was closing I asked if coffee was still available and the response was mm yeh with her face scrunched up as if I’d asked her to do something out of her job description. After that I decided to leave it and go elsewhere and she was very quick to continue vacuuming when I said it was ok I won’t worry about it. I will never return after...
