On March 7, North Londoners are discovering Gail's bakery for the first time, and the prices are leaving them stunned. The popular chain, often linked to gentrification, opened the spot on Junction Road near Archway Station, replacing an old corner shop and subway, a group of locals shared their shocked reactions online after trying it out. Gail's has been around North of the river for years in places like Kentish Town and Pentonville Road, but many in the area had skipped it until now. These first timers walked in expecting something familiar, only to face upscale baked goods with hefty tags. Their reactions were priceless. One guy could not believe a ham, cheese, and pickle chala, not cause 8 pounds 20. He called it outrageous, and showed his friends, who agreed it fell way off. Still, they grabbed the cheese straw, blackberry and apple crumble cake for 5 pounds 30 to eat in, and a hot chocolate. They took their haul to a nearby state for the real review. The cheese straw got a 6 out of 10 for lacking cheese flavor, but the crumble cake was a perfect

10 in the star of the show. The hot chocolate impressed too, especially since it came free with their 7 pounds 40 bill, and they rated it better than rival spot Jolene. This viral clip has locals buzzing about whether Gail's fancy vibe is worth it, or just the sign of change in the neighborhood.
