We’ll kick off with a place that actually sells banana bread so you don’t need to worry about a single thing. Loaf kicked off in the start of lockdown selling classics like lemon drizzle, as well as imaginative loaves like their Jammy Dodger delight – plus a Biscoff Loaf that is incredible. You can order via their Instagram.

The NQ-based cafe is now offering deliveries through lockdown from their pimped up van. The Doughnut Delivery is £3 and you can add on coffee or even a branded t-shirt.
