”We’ll be taking a break soon.”
One of Blackpool’s most beloved bakeries has announced it will be taking a break after what it believes was one of the busiest Saturdays it has ever experienced.
The Lainés, on Church Street, has told customers that the shop will close for one week in September following the exceptionally busy day.
