The shop, in the popular Stockbridge area of the city, now has a constant queues along the narrow pavement outside.<\/p>\n

Owner Darcie Maher said the unexpected situation forced her to recruit a steward to ensure the safety<\/a> of children<\/a> passing from a nearby school<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Punters have also been told off for munching pastries on the neighbours<\/a>‘ properties.<\/p>\n

A post on the bakery’s Instagram<\/a> page said: “We’d like to kindly remind all our lovely customers not to use any local private property<\/a> to enjoy their pastries.<\/p>\n

“Our wonderful neighbourhood is struggling with the influx of people looking for somewhere to sit around the bakery.<\/p>\n

“We’d like to politely ask that you don’t sit on people’s doorsteps or benches.<\/p>\n

“We understand that we have no control over the actions of people before or after they leave the premises.”<\/p>\n

Only eight people are allowed inside the Hamilton Place bakery at one time so the remainder stand outside on the street.<\/p>\n

But the bakery has also marked out a line on the pavement to advise punters where they can stand.<\/p>\n

Ms Maher told the BBC: “The safety of the children and parents<\/a> at Stockbridge Primary School<\/a> is a priority for us at Lannan.<\/p>\n

“We continue to work closely with the school and have engaged a queue warden to manage the queue.<\/p>\n

“A new full-time member of staff has been brought on board for this purpose”.<\/p>\n

Councillor Stephen Jenkinson, the City of Edinburgh<\/a> Council’s Transport<\/a> and Environment<\/a> Convener, said: “Our officers have had productive conversations with both Lannan and Stockbridge Primary School over these concerns.<\/p>\n

“I understand that the bakery has now taken on an extra member of staff to manage the queue which is a step in the right direction.<\/p>\n

“We want to support our businesses and make sure everyone can move around safely.<\/p>\n

“We’ll continue to monitor the situation and engage as appropriate with the relevant parties.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"BAKERY bosses hired a bouncer after their popular pastries caused massive queues outside their shop.
