'People still like to come in for their apple tarts, fresh cream and sausage rolls, which all remain very popular.'
A popular East Belfast business is celebrating 65 years in existence this week in what is a significant feat for the family-run operation.
One of the road's most familiar faces is celebrating a milestone this week as Peter Gibson from Gibsons Home Bakery marks 65 years in business. It was first established by Peter's parents, Cyril and Maureen. "My dad always said the shop opened the week before St Patrick's Day so I have the date of 10 March to focus on," he added
"People would have walked the length of it, both sides, and it was grandmothers, mothers and daughters all out shopping and stopping somewhere for lunch. It's not like now but then it's the same story everywhere.
