A popular doughnut shop in East Lancashire has launched a brand new brunch menu today – and the food looks delicious.
Doe Bakehouse, in Market Place, Clitheroe, is well known for its sweet treats and quirky doughnuts, but wanted to trial a brunch menu after listening to feedback from customers.
The 'Doe Brunch' menu will now be available from Wednesday to Sunday, 10am to 3pm.
While there are also Doe Bakehouse branches in York, this brunch menu is currently only available at the Lancashire branch.
Owner, Evie Jackson, says she and the Bakehouse team spent three months perfecting the brunch menu before its launch.

She said: “We are starting it off in Clitheroe because the shop is really cute and has some lovely seating areas; i think there is a really nice ambience for brunch in there.
“We are a dessert shop and we have a lot of people saying they wish they could come out to the shop, make a day of it, and order more than just doughnuts.”
The business has made a name for itself on Instagram, amassing more than 52,000 followers who have fallen in love with their quirky doughnut creations.
Evie said: "A lot of people from Lancashire were always asking if we planned to bring something like this to the business.
“Customers love the Instagram side of things and taking pictures of the food – but they don’t necessarily always want to come for a doughnut.
“We thought we could try something new and see how it goes.
“We know the food will be Instagram friendly and super tasty. People can come in, have brunch and then enjoy a doughnut afterwards which we think is quite a nice thing to do.”
Evie said the team have been planning the menu for three months and have now perfected every recipe.
Pancakes, croissants with different fillings, ‘sour-doe’ breads with a selection of toppings, French toast, ‘posh’ bacon rolls and more are on the menu.
Evie said they have even created their own version of a McDonald’s McMuffin – the 'Mc-Doe'.
Vegetarian and vegan option will be available.
Evie said: “People are really excited and want us to bring it over to our other branches.
"We are just looking forward to launching something a bit different for our brand.”
