Tenderloin-
Think there must be a pic from me about a year ago in this thread.
The trouble with Chatsworth bakehouse is they have been a victim of their own success and hype, they opened up a extra shop a few doors down with more ovens and split the unobtainable sandwiches that sell out in seconds online and baked goods but the queues at weekends are huge.
I reserved the pie slices and basque cheesecake online so just had a short queue to collect, I sometimes wander down midweek at 12:30-1 and only have a few people in front of me, last time it was Guinness cake and a marmite and cheese milk bun. The cookies I can live without but the other stuff has been some of the best bakes ever. I buy from Bunhead bakery in HH but Chatsworth takes the top spot.
So unless you are prepared to journey down to SE19 it’s probably not going to happen and I’m sure there are some epic goods nearer to you, pophams? Toklas? St John do an Eccles cake that I have travelled across town for, I see they do mince pies too.Edit:found the pic of basque cheesecake and mince pie slice

Sainsbury’s finest frangipane mince pies. Wish I hadn’t bothered as bit sweet overall and not a strong mince/peel hit and the almond frangipane isn’t really hitting the spot either.
The Almond ricciarelli they sell are nice though (soft almond biscuits)
Think I’m just going to wait for the Chatsworth bake house Xmas order as their mince pie slice is a thing of beauty.
