The business previously operated an 'OG Oxford Street Shop' which was closed to allow for the expansion and focus on the Sketty location. This strategic move aims to enhance their bakery capabilities, offering more pastries, bread, and expanding into outside catering.
The restaurant operates for breakfast and lunch. Sunday service runs from 9am to 2pm, offering brisket, all-day breakfast, and coffee. From Tuesday to Saturday, GNHM SUB SANDOS are available from 9am to 5pm (or until sold out). It is ideal for a morning coffee, breakfast, or lunchtime meal.
