The 50 best pastries and patisseries in London

Fantastic bakery! Had the green bean, tomato and whipped feta sarnie which was delicious. The fruit pastry was also brilliant. Due to its popularity it does sell out early of certain products which is the only down side

A bakery in what is basically a service yard never felt so good. I went there for breakfast, and at 8am it was alive with staff making such delicious baked goods. I had a Feta, Honey & Fennel Seed Swirl, which was amazing! Don’t go to Pret, go here. You will not be disappointed!

Really liked this place - very good croissant and excellent sandwiches. I got a pork sandwich, it was Asian style so came was full of interesting flavours and the pickled carrots etc balanced the pork nicely. I would say the sandwich is on the expensive side compared to other places which is why I didn’t rate it 5 stars

Best sandwich I’ve ever had! If you want the focaccia sandwiches then you need to come at 11:30! The till doesn’t take payments for the order unless it is exactly 11:30 and after. Takeaway orders are collected outside of the shop. Although I’m not a big fan of coronation chicken, but they’ve done very well at combining different ingredients, crunchy nuts, herbs, green apple slices, not to mention the airy and flavourful sour dough potato bread, I can see why people queue up here for food. The only downside to me is that the place gets so busy and it can be crowded. Also as a first time visitor, there’s not much guidance on what to do, you just sort of figure it out. The location for me was a little hard to find, you walk down the alleyway and it is the shop to your right, the name of the shop wasn’t visible unless you step opposite the shop.

After being recommended this bakery I was eager to visit and it didn't disappoint. Maybe one of the largest bakeries you'll ever visit, hidden down the end of a back lane with extensive outdoor seating it's a great spot for brunch or lunch on the weekend just be prepared to que. I visited on a Saturday and waited no more than a couple of minutes and tried two of my favourite UK stallwards the Morning Roll (chai spiced sugar dusted cruffin) and the go-to Honey and Feta swirl which was laden with sesame and poppy seeds and was absolutely banging! All their pastries and bread looked top tier. Flaky lamination and a deep caramel crust on all their sourdough (just the way I like it!) The breakfast sando looked unreal, and is clearly a top seller for good reason. I look forward to my next visit to try the rest! Keep up the good work team! 🤘

Unbeatable breads, amazing sandwiches, and really creative options! The queue this past July 6th weekend was wild, but worth it! We waited in the queue about 20 minutes until we ordered, but there were plenty of tables and we were able to sit 4 of us at a table inside. Despite the crowds, service was so fast! Our sandwiches + drinks arrived within 8-10 minutes of ordering and were of course, the best in London. It’s the first time I’ve seen it this busy, but even with the queue, these baked goods are always worth it.

I had very high expectations because this place is recommended to me by a lot of people as “the best bakery in London”. It is very solid but there are many others similar to this, and much better ones for creative pastries

This place is quite famous and happens to be close to my office. Really lovely environment with both indoor and outdoor seating — you can choose whatever you feel like! Their pastries are exceptional and huge! This is exactly what we all look for when it comes to delicious pastries, isn’t it? This is my second visit, and after checking the reviews, I decided to try the Bacon & Maple one since it seemed quite popular — and yes, it was absolutely delicious! The pastry was crispy yet moist from the maple syrup, not too sweet, and perfectly balanced with the bacon, which wasn’t too salty either. The sweet-and-savoury combo just made me keep eating! The croissant was also really good — fluffy and buttery — and the flan had a unique flavour, maybe dark sugar or malt? They also offer unlimited water, which is great for people like me who don’t drink coffee or tea. Definitely recommended, and I’ll be back again soon!

The place has a really nice vibe and the service was very good. The highlight of the visit was definitely the pastry. We had the maple and bacon swirl and it was out of this world! The best pastry I’ve ever had. Definitely recommend getting it warmed up as well. The coffee was also very good. Will definitely come back :)

Great on a sunny day as there is lots of outdoor seating. We ordered the sweetcorn chowder which was served super hot with tangy fresh sourdough, the bacon maple swirl, this was nice but was expensive! My almond croissant was well filled and not too sweet but a little over cooked. For two coffees and the food it cost £27. We came on a Friday to a full cafe but we could get a table straight away.

Highly recommend Pophams! I came here on my travels looking to try pastries in the UK and this was definitely the top place. We had the maple and bacon pastry. Was delicious, temperature was perfect, and was baked so well. Service was very friendly and really enjoyed the atmosphere as it was a chill and relaxing vibe. I also really liked how their menu showed which were vegan, and had nuts in it.

Long queue on a Sunday brunch - same queue regardless of takeaway or dine in. Found a nice spot facing out, ordered the yoghurt with granola and portion was quite small for the price. Yoghurt also had a strange cream texture, still good. The classic parmesan twist was crispy and savoury. Cardamom bun was perfectly crispy with the savoury cinnamon flavor.

The best pastries I’ve ever had in my life and this is not an exaggeration. The maple and bacon bun is so interesting and full of flavour, the coffee is incredible and I’ve come back to have the cardamom bun again and to share it with my mom and she loved it to. The lamination, the caramelised outside of the pastry, the butteriness, the salt levels and the rich cardamom flavour. It’s just perfect. Their coffee was also incredible. Would give it 1000/5 if I could. Will come back again, 100%.

Went on a bakery crawl last weekend and Pophams was such an exciting place for us to visit! The queue was long, we waited about 20 mins, but managed to get a spot in the sun! We ordered the honey and salt pastry, aswell as the cheese and marmite pastry. We were underwhelmed by the honey and salt one, thought it lacked something, maybe cause it has been hyped up so much online. However the cheese and marmite was incredible! We loved it! Will go back to try more!

Their dough is very good - light and fluffy - and are packed with filling. However, was disappointed with the lack of flavour in the blackcurrant - there was no blackcurrant jam on the inside, only the bit of jam dribbled on the outside, and the cheesecake filling didn't taste like anything at all, not even vanilla. Service was also a bit rude/dismissive. There are far better doughnut spots elsewhere - would not recommend going out of your way for this one - did not live up to the hype at all getting a flavourless doughnut.

Must try doughnuts when you are I. Borough market, if you go on the weekend it’s worth going through the crowds of borough market and the queue goes very quickly. The crème Brûlée is my favourite. In addition they do amazing savoury snacks also. There big pizza slices are great for a lunch bite or a snack. The olive and cheese stick is so good and you can’t beat their sourdough bread to take away. To make it even better they offer courses to learn how to make most of the items they sell. The pizza course and sourdough classes are great and you learn so much and get to eat as you go, normally with a baked good treat as a bonus.

Tried Bread Ahead and loved the donuts! I had the pistachio and crème brûlée — both really good, not too sweet, and the dough isn’t greasy at all. They are pricey at £4.50 each, so definitely more of an occasional treat. The only downside is the long queue, and the stall is on a messy street with construction going on. The staff seemed a bit checked out, but it was a super busy day so understandable. Overall, a great snack stop in Borough Market!

The flavour is just not there. 12:00 on Friday (last day before half-term), and it wasn't particularly busy in comparison to the hot food stalls. I got there just before the lunch-rush. The service for selecting the doughnuts was good and friendly, but the payment section was poor. The doughnuts are selected and nicely boxed up, and placed into a pile by the cashier. The cashier then shouts out the order and the customer pays. So, the next person in line is not necessarily the next customer to pay, especially if it's the same order as someone else. They need more space to line up the orders, in order. Flavour-wise, they were disappointingly bland. I had the creme brûlée and Pistachio. The fillings in both were tasteless. I couldn't tell if it was a meringue, cream, custard, creme pâtissière, or butter based. It was just "there". I had to really think about the Pistachio and vanilla to be able to taste them. Two good things: The dough had a good texture an a nice taste; the filling wasn't too sweet, sickly, nor rich. So, I would have much preferred a plain sugar covered doughnut. I don't know if they do them, but I want to say they are £2. I can't be sure, as it wasn't on my mind when buying them.

The smell that filled the street and the wonderful cream and dough that came out when you put it in your mouth made it a fantastic experience. They have lots of affordable products you can eat on the go. We chose the vanilla one, and it was quite delicious.

A Dessert Worth Trying at Borough Market This is one of the desserts worth trying when you visit Borough Market. We tried two classic crème brûlées. The sugar on top was a bit too much, but the custard inside was delicious and helped balance the sweetness. Overall, a dessert worth trying. We paid £4.5 per piece.

Was following on Instagram for years and finally made it. This place is a haven for foodies. I tried the famous donuts but need to return for the bread. Totally recommend 👌🏼

First visit had the polenta ricotta squash olive oil with sourdough dish. Very tasty. Nice flavour coffee. Seating outside. Sourdough available to buy too a nice place to try !

First time coming here and loved the space. Great selection of bread and cakes as well as drinks. I ordered a BLT and a slice of their danish which tasted great! They have outdoor and indoor seating. I had a lovely time catching up with a friend here for a few hours, staff were very attentive and quick to clear up empty plates. Laptop friendly environment, would definitely love to come back on my own and do some work.

This is one of east London's most popular artisan bakeries, located right next to the entrance of London Fields train station. There is only a small sign to let people know that it's there. But once inside, it's like doctor who's TARDIS, bigger on the inside! I paid a visit early on Saturday morning, and it was bustling. Despite being located only a 5-minute walk from Broadway market I would think that this place gets very busy about Saturday lunchtime to afternoon. This place also roasts it own coffee, hence my interest. Prices are par for the course for an artisan bakery in London. I had a pain au chocolate and a flat white, both were excellent. Competition for artisan coffee in this part of London is tough, it has to be good and it most certainly is. Recommended by myself.

Loved the feel of the place and how it has a mini market. Very spacious and clean bathrooms if i may add. Delicious coffee didn't like the cookie they braged about, was kinda dry for me. Will definitely try other things if I ever was in the area again

Holy cow this was good!! I had the fried egg & halloumi bun, as well as a corn madeline/scone thing. The bun was yummm — super tasty bread with just the right balance of sweet/savoury/umami. I had the corn snack a little later and it really threw me off: moist inside but with a satisfying crust. Would 100% return, this time with an empty stomach and some grocery bags.

Excellent place where they make their own bread starting from the wheat with a mini mill, we ordered sandwiches and soups, there was a lot of space outside.

Dog friendly cafe! You can bring your laptop but I don’t think you can stay long. It was kinda busy, as it’s a well known place x

Stopped here somewhat recently on a whim. Super busy! They have a really great selection available - We both had one of the beignets, which were very tasty but I think they could've been a bit more generous with the toppings for the price, service was quick and friendly, will definitely be back again if we're in the area.

Fortitude Bakery is such a gem. Everything here tastes like it’s made with real love and quality ingredients. The pastries are flaky and fresh, but what really surprised me were the sandwiches — especially the chicken harissa. It’s bursting with flavor and perfectly balanced. You can taste the freshness in every bite, and the staff is genuinely friendly and welcoming. The atmosphere makes it easy to linger over coffee or lunch. Definitely a must-visit when you’re in town.

I recently visited this bakery and was genuinely impressed by several of their pastries and drinks. I highly recommend the Hazelnut & Chocolate Custard pan suisse, which is rich, flaky, and layered with a perfect balance of nutty sweetness and silky chocolate. The Cinnamon & Stick Bun is another standout—warm, aromatic, and wonderfully comforting without being overly sweet. My favorite pastry might have been the Baked Plum Danish with Orange Custard Hazelnut crumb; the tart plum, bright citrus custard, and subtle hazelnut come together beautifully for a pastry that’s both unique and incredibly flavorful. However, the Blackberry Cinnamon Cream Beignet was a miss for me. The flavor combination didn’t come together well, and it was much too creamy, to the point where I couldn’t finish it. On the drink side, you should definitely try the Apple Matcha Latte. It’s absolutely delicious—refreshing, balanced, and surprisingly harmonious. I also tried the Chicken Harissa Baguette, which was flavorful and satisfying, making it a solid savory option worth ordering. Steaming outside only though

Fortitude Bakehouse Review: Coffee and Pastries Shine My recent visit to Fortitude Bakehouse was a mix of highs and one small low, but the exceptional quality of the baked goods certainly won me over. The coffee was lovely—perfectly brewed and exactly what I needed. The pastries were the real highlight, though! I ordered what I believe was the beignet (as pictured, dusted with cocoa/sugar), and it was absolutely delicious—light, airy, and a true indulgence. The standard of the baking here is clearly top-tier. On the service side, the young lady who served me was a little short and seemed a bit rude. I'm going to chalk it up to her having an off day, as we all have those moments. Hopefully, her day got better! Overall, if you're looking for outstanding pastries and coffee in London, Fortitude is a must-visit. The quality of the food and drink makes it worth overlooking the minor service issue.

Hidden away in a quiet passage, this little shop quickly became a favourite of mine. The staff are incredibly friendly and I loved the impressive range of pastries, with choices for both sweet and savoury moods. The first time I visited, I chose a feta and spinach pastry alongside a cinnamon bun — both were absolutely delicious. The experience was so enjoyable that I returned the next day and got a morning bun, which pleasantly surprised me with its subtle sweetness and light texture. I also tried two different coffees on my visits, and both were excellent — Very rich and the ideal companion to my pastries.

We had a Mocha Cream and Cherry Beignet. The buns were fresh and cream nice and fluffy. Not too - just the right amount. Really enjoyed it and will return. The seating outside is convenient and much needed. Definitely have the beignets, I will try other things next time.

The food was amazing here! We stumbled upon this place on our way to the British museum. I'm so glad we did. We truly enjoyed both the savory and sweet options here. There can be a line at times but well worth the wait

Delicious pastries and beautiful croissant lamination. Highly recommend if in the area even if there is a wait. It is a bit chaotic, hard to find a seat and not amazingly welcoming but makes sense given the popularity and tourist quantity.

I stopped by this bakery and tried the plain, almond, and pistachio dark chocolate croissants along with a coffee — and everything was so good! The croissants were perfectly flaky and buttery, with just the right balance of sweetness. The coffee paired perfectly with the pastries and really rounded out the experience. Overall, a fantastic spot for anyone who loves high-quality pastries. I’ll definitely be coming back!

One of the best bakery in the London. Their pastries are awsome. Pastries look and taste very good. I tried pistachio-dark chocolate pain souse and blackberry-almond danish. It was great. The dough was crispy, taste was balanced, not to sweet. Coffee was also good. In the future could be there some cozy sitting place inside. I sat outside. It was ok, hovewer inside place could be better. On the weekend they serve pastries only to the box and coffee to the paper cups. I prefer cup and plate. Also there was long queue. It is better to visit bakery early. Service was very nice and helpful and they talked with me. I am looking forward to next visit in the future.

Layla Bakery in Notting Hill looks beautiful from the outside and their baked goods are undeniably well-presented – precise, neat, and very photogenic. However, once you get past the appearance, the taste doesn’t quite deliver. The pastries lack the depth and aroma you’d expect from really great butter – that rich, rounded flavour you find in the best French viennoiserie. Instead, they come across a bit bland, and the fillings aren’t particularly generous either. On top of that, the pricing feels hard to justify. £3 for a croissant here compared to around €1.40 (Mamiche or La Maison d'Isabelle for example, where the aroma of butter oozes out as you dig in!) for an outstanding croissant in Paris does make you question the value. Of course, London is a different market and it’s not always fair to compare directly, but at this price point you naturally expect more. On the positive side, the coffee is genuinely good, which helps elevate the overall experience. Still, while Layla looks the part, the flavour and satisfaction of the pastries don’t quite match the premium positioning.

Busy bakery/café. Seen the hype and a friend lives nearby so had to visit. Beautiful pastries that lived up to the hype. Service was quick and we sat outside. Coffee was ok too. But those pastries are to die for!

The baked goods were just as delicious as everyone says 😂 The coffee was great too. I went on probably one of the hottest days in London so I ordered an iced latte (ps. Most of the seating is outdoors)

I went to Layla a few years ago and tried it again on 15/09 - even better than I remember! We tried 3 pastries (one savoury, two sweet) and the cookie - they were all v tasty with generous fillings. One of the pastries was a bit underbaked in the middle but still tasty and it was massive so we didn't really care. The coffee was average. It was a Monday morning so there was no queue really. The lady that served us at the till was really lovely, she took the time to talk us through the pastries and give us recommendations and she just made us feel really welcome :) the prices are expensive but totally normal for a specialised bakery in Notting Hill. From what I've seen from previous job ads they seem to pay their employees very fairly which makes me more inclined to spend my money there.

Great bakery and awsome pastries. Apple miso danish was wonderful, crispy dough and balanced taste. Also cappuccino and hojicha latte were very good. Honey toast wasn't to good as I expected, but not bad. It was too dry for me. Some cream with toast will be better. Nice, cozy atmosphere with asia influence. Very nice and helpful services. I am glad for recomendation and talk. Their another savoury and sweet pastries looks also interesting.

The best chocolate almond croissant I’ve ever had — truly unforgettable. Arome is one of the best bakeries in London, known for its signature pastries like the honey butter toast (which I haven’t tried yet), but I did have the miso apple danish and the chocolate almond croissant. I’m usually not a big fan of apple desserts, but this danish completely changed my mind. The miso adds a subtle umami flavor, perfectly balancing the sweetness of the apples. Unlike most apple pastries that miss the mark on texture, this one had both crunch and flakiness. Inside, the almond filling added the right amount of nuttiness, making every bite feel harmonious — 10/10. And the croissant… absolutely flawless. Buttery, light, and crisp — I could literally travel to London just to have it again. You can dine in or take away, both options are great. If you have time for only one bakery in London, make it Arome. No hesitation — it’s a must-visit.

No doubt many people are aware of this bakery and its excellent reputation, so perhaps leaving a review is somewhat redundant. However, it’s been a couple of weeks since our very first visit and I’ve not stopped thinking about how much I enjoyed it! The Apple Miso Danish frankly deserves its own national holiday. That pesto mozzarella wonder was all but inhaled. And the fight over the last bite of pistachio and chocolate snail nearly ended in divorce with my husband. You know the drill though. Somewhere this good and this hyped gets queues. And we arrived first thing on a Saturday morning too! Be prepared to wait if you arrive later in the day - or just do as we did, which is grab and go as there’s plenty of seating dotted around where you can people watch while you scoff! Definitely one of those places which will beckon you to return to try out their other delectable looking items. In fact, it’s in my diary for this weekend! Oh and shoutout to the team at the counter who patiently dealt with my decision paralysis.

Over hyped … ordered the Honey Butter toast and the Parmesan Nori pastry thingy. I don’t know what I was expecting but it was quite anti climatic in flavour. The crunch of the pastry was good . Honey butter toast was not too sweet which I liked but had this weird honey aftertaste. For the price it’s not worth it.. I have had way better !! The service was meh!! The aesthetic was Beautiful . They need to update their website. Because it said they did the bacon escargot but they had stopped making it

Got the Arôme Honey Butter Toast and the Tomato Pesto Danish and was surprised at how delicious they both were. The honey butter toast was light, sweet, and crispy. The edges with the caramelized honey was soooo good. The danish was refreshing with the sweet tomatoes and flakey pastry. It was a nice balance to the honey butter toast. The interior was very aesthetically pleasing so it was nice to dine in.

Absolutely delicious stuff!!! Would recommend everyone to go and try at least three items of your choosing. The pesto tomato one is definitely in my top three pastries of all time. Lemon tart was also incredibly scrumptious.

Arôme Bakery - Mercer Street is such a lovely spot! The coffee is amazing, and their honey cake is absolutely delicious — a must-try! The place is beautifully designed, everything is neat and well-presented. It’s a charming bakery that truly deserves a visit. 🍯☕✨

I have been staying here for decades. It always feels like coming home! Service and genuine care is excellent. Location is perfect. Church view rooms offer the best natural light. Upgrades and improvements are always made. Some components in the room were not operating as they should. They now co share a gym, spa, indoor pool with Emory. Children hours for the pool are not enforced, two days in a row.

Well located classic five star London hotel. One of the very few London hotels with a rooftop pool. One of the best hotel breakfasts in town and my favourite spot for a martini. Also hosts Cedric Grilot which is worth a visit. Rooms are a bit plain and corporate but very comfortable

Superb and Faultless. I loved the fact that the staff made us feel like their own extended family. The staff went out of their way to look after us. A special thank you to Andrea at concierge reception desk. My wife and I stayed at the hotel to celebrate our baby son's one year old birthday. I am pleased to say that we had a memorable and personalised experience. The actual location is prime. Very good if you are a tourist in London for the first time.

My partner and I stayed at The Berkeley and were absolutely delighted. The level of care and attention from the staff was beyond anything we’ve experienced before – everyone was friendly, professional, and always ready to help with a smile. The rooms are elegant, bright, and wonderfully spacious, with perfect climate control that made our stay incredibly comfortable. They’re ideal for relaxing after a day exploring London. The spa is truly outstanding, offering a world-class experience of pure relaxation. An exceptional hotel in every way – we’ll definitely be back!

My favorite hotel in London! They staff were amazing, rooms are amazing, location is top, treated my dog as a king, took care of my every needs and when I had an issue with the my card (due to pickpockets) they were so understanding and made sure I didn’t have to worry about anything.

Fabulous hotel. Held my engagement party and birthday parties here so have great memories. Excellent, attentive service, great restaurants and services, wonder spa. The suites are lovely

My friend was visiting from New York and I wanted to do something a little special for her. The Berkeley Café did not disappoint. The service was excellent from the moment I arrived, the doorman was prompt and courteous from the second I got out of my taxi, the lady on the front desk was welcoming and friendly and helped me find the Café. Once seated, the entire tea was a superb experience and I’d like to give a special shout-out to all the hosts who served us on the day. The food and beverages were interesting and imaginative — and above all, delicious. The atmosphere was indulgent and opulent but never made the mistake of taking itself too seriously. TLDR, for the benefit of my American readers (and translated from the original much too-wordy English original): swanky but not stuffy — you can do the full Cleveland, if you want and if you must — although be prepared to take a beating in the old wallet.

Alternative, different, quality, attention to detail, good care of the customer. This bakery has all the good things one wants when going to fetch for comfort and a treat. Has some small tables outside. The savoury pastries were unique and so tasty! Please do not advertise this place anymore! Keep it for the locals, keep it authentic!

Toad Bakery is one of my favourite bakeries in London! There is always a vast selection of bakes on offer. Including a classic line up of croissants, chocolatine, cardamom buns and freshly baked sourdough. Their double chocolate cookie is honestly, pretty perfect. The apple and blackberry custard danish is a match made in heaven. The black sesame and white chocolate pain suisse has an interesting flavour profile, which we all enjoyed. And their cinnamon swirl with maple cream cheese is for sure one of the best swirls we’ve had, super soft and sweet. With an iced, creamy, chocolate milk, to wash it all down! I’d definitely recommend visiting with a friend or two, choosing a selection of bakes and sharing amongst yourselves — as you’ll get to taste more of their offerings without it feeling overindulgent. If you think you can go further, definitely check out their next-door neighbours Café Mondo, for a delicious sandwich. Just a short walk down the road, is Lala Books, where you could pick your latest read. And further ahead, there’s Dash The Henge record store, where you mind find your new favourite band. South London Forever!

This was a very nice pastry, and to be honest they seemed to have tonnes of great options. It was delicious! My only gripe with this place is that the queue was mental - I was in it for 45 minutes. I have no issue with a place being popular but the queue was barely moving which was slightly frustrating.

Miso caramel and pear danish is very delicious 👌 I also tried quince for the first time and it has a very pleasant smell. The custard on that was a but too eggy but it might be one off batch. Will definitely come back to try more

This place is very popular, and I made a mistake by choosing to go on a Saturday morning. The queue was long, but they are fast, so, after 30 minutes, I ordered 1 almond croissant, 1 cinnamon swirl, 1 apple custard danish, 1 double choc chip cookie, 1 pain suisse, 1 apple and cinnamon custard. Everything is delicious, the crunch, the freshness, the moreish custard, the delicate balance they achieved in creating those wonderful pastries, is magical. This is a takeaway bakery, an incredibly good one. The staff is courteous and nice. There is very limited outside seating, and no seats inside at all, so bear this in mind. I do not live in Peckham any longer, but this place is worth the journey. I am a dessert person, but they do savoury creations too( I saw a porchetta swirl that looked wonderful, so, in case you prefer salty, your tastebuds will probably be as happy as mine were when i tasted these magnificent pastries.

Super long wait but well worth it- bakery items are so interesting and delicious! Their cinnamon rolls are unbeatable- soft, pillowy, perfect amount of cream cheese frosting! Can’t go wrong. (Everything else was also amazing!)

Went there at 8.30. There was small queue and it moved fast. The lady serving at the front had excellent personality. Tried the everything bagel croissant and the cornbread croissant. Everything bagel croissant- the pastry itself was LUSH! However, imo the filling seemed a bit bitter. Might be because of the dill? But it was still pretty good. I'd recommend sharing it as it's really quite filling. Cornbread croissant- filling was nice, and creamy. Loved it. Again suitable for 2 people.

Lovely! It does get very crowded with the flower market. We had the scone (was even warm) and the brownie (salty). Both were delicious. The service was a bit slow though, but friendly.

I love cake and stopped by Lili Vanilli based on the strong reviews. There were a few options available (most with a cherry theme), I went with the chocolate cherry cake. The cake itself had a nice chocolate flavour, and the buttercream was smooth and generously applied. It tasted like a North American-style cake - the sponge had a tender and moist crumb, fluffier. That said, I was hoping for more cherry presence. Aside from two cherry halves in the filling, there wasn’t much cherry flavour overall and ended up tasting mostly like a chocolate cake. It was served at room temperature, but I think this style of cake might benefit from being slightly chilled. At room temp, the fats in the cake and icing were more noticeable in taste and texture. Located off of Columbia Rd, in a mini alley / courtyard. There is outdoor seating. Lovely on a quiet Saturday afternoon.

The cakes at Lily's place are the very best! We never go anywhere else for our celebration cakes and she even done our wedding cake! The decor & the taste are equally as stunning 🤩 Highly recommend for a showstopper cake!!

Absolute best sweet treats in London, set in the cutest courtyard off the flower market. We also did Lily's cake decorating class, where she shared so many expert tips and tricks with such a fun approach! Such a fabulous night, thank you Lily 💛

I ordered a Lily Vanilly sprinkles cake - black, with cherries on top - for a photoshoot and birthday party. It was ready on time for pick-up, and tasted as amazing as it looked. My guests are now addicted! Big fan of Lily Vanilli’s - their afternoon tea at the Four Seasons hotel in London is also awesome!

Thank you so much for the lovely cake, we really enjoyed it. And my friend they really love the cake as well. Pick their’s cake, Hope more and more people can enjoy your birthday!

We got a last minute wonderful Mille Feuille Wedding Cake for our wedding party. The team set it up directly in the venue and it looked marvelous. Everybody loved it and it tasted delicious. Perfect communication with the team as well, exactly what you need when hosting a big wedding. Highly recommend!

Stopped by Kuro Bakery in Notting Hill for a pain au chocolat and an iced coffee - both were great. The pastry was fresh with good quality chocolate, and the coffee was well made. Plenty of tempting options on offer, so definitely worth a stop if you’re in the area.

I’ve ordered apple strudel, chocolate and hazelnut croissant and blueberry muffin. The croissant is generously filled with chocolate and hazelnut cream but the cream itself is tasteless and taste more like a pudding, apple strudel had so little filling and it was somewhat hard to chew. Seemed like apples were not cooked enough or croissant was old. Or both. It wasn’t melting in your mouth at all. Blueberry muffin was nice bc of the blueberry compote at the top but once it’s gone then it’s bland. I’m not sure if for over £15 it was worth the trip Also the lady on the till was too busy chatting to a friend to acknowledge new customers coming in although I stood in front of her.

Kuro Bakery is an absolute gem in the heart of Notting Hill! The moment you walk in, you’re greeted by the warm aroma of freshly baked pastries and a minimalist, calming atmosphere. Their croissants are perfectly flaky, and the matcha lattes are some of the best in London. The staff are always friendly and clearly passionate about what they do. It’s the perfect spot for a quiet morning coffee or a weekend treat. A must-visit for anyone who loves artisan bakeries and beautiful design!

Nice bakery with a lot of options. - Tried the pistachio croissant and one of the breads. The croissant was ok and the bread was delicious. - There are some chairs outside but it's mostly for takeaway. - Staff was very friendly. - Prices are slightly higher than usual. Would visit again to try more.

I ordered an iced matcha with soya milk. The flavor was just right—not too sweet and not too bold. Also got a flat white, and the croissant? literally the yummiest I’ve had in a while The staff were sweet, but there weren’t many chairs so maybe don’t expect to sit for long. Still, cute little stop if you’re around!

Small spot for Bakery lovers in Kensington. Limited seats with perfect choices. "Almond Croissant" was excellent. Worth to try.

The baked goods were decent for the price. However the matcha was one of the worst I've had with the non-homogenized milk being used results in large clumps. The quality does not compare to anything I've had previously both in London and internationally. Would not recommend.

Can't fault this place, great coffee and treats from an efficient and passionate team. We arrived early Sunday morning to find a small queue, and were served within a couple of minutes. Great coffee.

Lovely bakery on Lower Marsh, SE1, with fresh bakes and an excellent mozzarella focaccia. There’s cute garden seating out front on the pedestrian street, making it a perfect spot to relax with coffee and something sweet or savoury.

Amazing speciality pastries and treats at this branch that you can't get at the other branches. Flaky, buttery, delicious pastries that satisfy your pastry fix. The coffee here is amazing with a decaf option. The artisan organic sourdough bread from wholegrain to white is super tasty. Queues are long in the morning but it's worth it as they sell out fast, and the queue moves fast.

Great baked breads and treats! The labneh twist is a personal favourite. Baguettes and coffee are nice too

I have been going to Little Bread Pedlar so often now that I can honestly say it has become one of my favourite places in London. From the moment I walk in, I feel welcomed and uplifted, almost as if I have come home to something wonderful. My dearest friend Martin, who is also the owner, is nothing short of extraordinary. He embodies kindness, artistry, and generosity all at once. At first, I only knew him through his creations. I kept visiting all of his places, tasting his breads, enjoying the food, and feeling the joy of his hospitality. Eventually, I had the chance to thank him in person, and from that moment he became not only the visionary behind this gem but also a friend whose warmth and passion inspire everyone who meets him. His dedication to excellence is not just about perfect crusts or beautiful flavours. It is about creating moments: moments when strangers become friends, moments when simple food lifts your spirit, and moments when you leave feeling more alive than when you arrived. Alongside him is Alessandro, and I hope I have spelled his name correctly. He manages the place with such grace, efficiency, patience, and care. He carries both calm and joy in equal measure, and every visit shows me the strength of his touch. Everything flows smoothly, from the service to the atmosphere, and there is always a sense that nothing is ever too much trouble. Alejandro makes every guest feel seen, heard, and valued, whether it is through helping choose the right bread, answering questions with care, or simply sharing a smile that brightens the day. Little Bread Pedlar is far more than a bakery or café. It is a place of connection, a place where the aromas of fresh baking mix with the rustic beauty of the space and the laughter of people gathered around small tables. Together these elements create not only food but also memories, and the experience nourishes the soul as much as it does the body. Thank you to Martin, to Alejandro, and to every person who works there. You have built something magical, and I will keep coming back for as long as I can.

I'm glad I stopped by. I enjoyed my oat flat white which greatly complemented the croissant I got. The croissant was a great bake. It was soft whilst retaining its airiness and flakiness. The notes of salt enhanced the sweetness without it being overbearing. I will definitely be returning to try their other baked goods. The Little Bread Pedlar in Bermondsey is situated under the arches and there wasn't seating available. There was a slender "counter" outside where you could rest your coffee but the space was limited. It's located 10 minutes away from the river Thames, so I got to enjoy both the coffee and croissant at Bermondsey Beach.

After reading all these positive reviews I had really high hopes for this bakery, as it's been on my to-try list for 2-3 years now. So one Sunday morning after I woke up really early because of post-holiday jetlag, I decided to trek all the way to LBP and finally try it out myself. It had literally just opened when I got there at 8:30, so thankfully there wasn't a queue. It was also super rainy which definitely put people off from coming so early. I had a look the pastries and went with the plain croissant, hazelnut chocolatine, maple pecan swirl and the cinnamon bun. I then went home and tried the cinnamon bun, which I must say wasn't particularly impressed with, as it tasted just very average like any other bakeries out there. It's on the fluffy side, and the sugar on top added some crunch to it. A few hours later, I also tried the hazelnut chocolatine and this was when I got very surprised about the quality of the pastries - it was chewy! Just because I left the pastries aside for a few hours after purchase doesn't mean they should have turned chewy! I was genuinely shocked that it was like that particular given how early I got to the bakery which meant they must have been just baked! It's not flaky, the shape seemed off even though the taste and the filling was great. I have never eaten a croissant-type pastry that's chewy and I don't believe it should ever taste like that. So now I am really confused why others think their pastries were even good?! As someone who has tried millions of bakeries in London and around the world, I am truly disappointed with the quality of LBP. Before my visit to the bakery, I really thought this would turn out so positive that I could start recommending my friends to come. But I guess that's not happening.

The raspberry jam doughnut was good. The doughnut itself was light and fluffy with a good coating of sugar, and with proper seeded raspberry jam inside. The best doughnuts I’ve had? I’m not sure, but worth trying if you are nearby. This bakery also sells bread, croissants and wine. They also offered Hot Cross Bun doughnuts and Hot Cross Buns when we visited just before Easter too.

Average donut. I wanted to love it since we love St John restaurant. I finally decided to give it go on Sunday morning right after they opened so the doughnuts were super fresh, which didn't feel was the case. It was soft, but not super soft, the vanilla custard was nice not overly sweet. I think the price is the usual for London, I would pay ½ the price. I've certainly had better. I don't think I will go back, but for once it was nice. Service, was decent, St John could definitely pay a little more attention to their staff here as there is room for improvement.

If you’re a fan of doughnuts, St. John Bakery is an absolute must-try. These aren’t your average pastries—Michelin star doughnuts that are on a whole different level. 🍩 What we had: • A selection of their signature doughnuts Each one was light, fluffy, and perfectly glazed—the kind of treat that feels indulgent but balanced. They’ve absolutely nailed the texture and sweetness. No fillings dripping down your hand—just clean, satisfying bites full of flavor. 📝 What I liked? Everything. The quality is undeniable, and the doughnuts speak for themselves. Great service, clean layout, and consistent excellence. 👎 What I didn’t like? Honestly—nothing to fault here. ✅ Would I go back? Without hesitation. It lives up to the hype and then some. A must for any pastry lover. 🔍 Note: This is one of the rare cases where a first visit earns a perfect score. Top marks across the board.

Bakery items were extremely limited for a self proclaimed "bakery" - they do not have sandwiches - and my cinnamon bun was average. However the staff were friendly and accommodating. It is a very nice place to have a coffee pit-stop with a great aspect of Neal's Yard from the outdoor seating.

Is a small wine shop-bakery where you can find delicious pastries, and even a cup of coffee. The staff is polite and kind, and gave us useful and interesting advice about their products. Thank you very much, and we will definitely be back! Ohhh .. the vanilla cream donuts completely won us over. I recommend you try them :) they are delicious and you can enjoy them outside on the wooden benches, in an quiet and peaceful atmosphere .. we love it Thank you!

I had seen this donuts years ago online in a video and have waited since then to get a chance to try them. I was not disappointed at all. These donuts are fantastic. Perfectly fluffy and with an amazing filling. The staff was also friendly, professional, and kind. I will definitely be coming back as much as I can the next time I visit!

St. John Bakery in Neal’s Yard is a true haven for those who appreciate the art of fine baking. Their donuts are nothing short of perfection—a delectable trio of vanilla, chocolate, and raspberry jam that redefines what a donut can be. Each flavor is exquisitely balanced, with a texture that is both light and indulgent, offering an unparalleled tasting experience. What truly sets this bakery apart, however, is the exceptional service. Oscar, with his courteous and attentive approach, is the epitome of an English gentleman. His warm hospitality and dedication to customer satisfaction make every visit feel special, ensuring that you leave not just with a box of the finest pastries, but with a memorable experience. For anyone in search of the best that London has to offer, St. John Bakery in Neal’s Yard is an absolute must. The combination of remarkable quality, impeccable service, and the charming location makes it a standout in every sense. It’s more than just a bakery—it’s an experience of pure delight.

24/7 delicious bagels with unbeatable quality and value! Bagel Bake on Brick Lane is an absolute must-visit for anyone craving fresh, tasty bagels any time of day or night. It’s open 24 hours, which makes it perfect for early mornings, late nights, or whenever hunger strikes. Despite the incredibly cheap prices, the quality is amazing — every bagel is freshly made, generously filled, and packed with flavor. My personal favorites are the classic salmon and cream cheese bagel, and for something heartier, the beef with mustard is fantastic — they really don’t skimp on the meat! I also often take home their challah bread and jam doughnuts, which are super yummy and always fresh. The staff are efficient and friendly, and the bustling Brick Lane location adds to the lively atmosphere. Whether you’re a local, a tourist, or just passing through, Bagel Bake is a delicious, reliable, and satisfying stop for bagels, baked goods, and more. Highly recommended for anyone who loves fresh, affordable, and filling food! Kosher options!

The filling to beigel ratio is awful for £3, all I can taste is bread! I remember when you could actually see the filling from the sides. Are these purposely being prepared with less filling than before? A sad shame when a Tesco meal deal is actually better value for money. Highly doubt I’ll be back. Response to the owner: Appreciate the apology but, my brother purchased 6 of them (£18) and were pretty much the same. The cheesecake was the only decent or acceptable thing from our order. The cheese and cucumber beigels had a generous 1.5 slices of cheese. If the Tuna beigels were made in front of us it would have been spotted but were sat ready prepared in paper bags. Wanting to rectify it after the fact when we’re not local doesn’t help I’m afraid. Not sure how someone being off is the cause for a standard to drop this bad, does no one else make beigels there? The shop wasn’t busy at the time. The was food lazily prepared, we felt ripped off, hence the review.

Honestly, the best bagel in London! Had the plain bagel with salmon and cream cheese – super fresh and tastes just like a real New York bagel. Even the plain bagel on its own is amazing. It’s not a tourist spot – lots of locals come here. Definitely worth the trip instead of going for the usual mainstream bagels around London.🥯

Came strongly recommended as the best bagel place in London so had to check out! NY TImes were taking interviews when i got there, which proved that it is a really famous and good place. I tried salmon & salty beef and both were delicious. Bagels were very soft and went very well with other ingredients. It is pretty different from American bagel so it is worth checking out.

We went back twice for the salt beef bagel and sandwich after trying it the first time—it was absolutely incredible! The meat was melt-in-your-mouth tender, and the bagel was perfectly fresh. We stood in line but didn’t have to wait long, even when it's busy, the service is impressively efficient. The salmon cream cheese option was tasty too, but if you're visiting, don’t miss the salt beef bagel or sandwich—it's a must try!

My fav. So nice having it open 24/7 too. Much better alternative to all kebabs and fried chicken shops. Recommend! 🇬🇧 Also you’ll most likely see a queue, don’t let it scare you away, it’ll be gone in minutes.

My review will be entirely subjective, and what I want to say is that I didn't like this food very much. First off, there was a strong, pungent mustard sauce coming from the nostrils, and I'd say it overpowered the taste of all the other ingredients. The meat's tenderness is nice, but it just doesn't complete the flavor with just pickles and mustard. We could call it an average street food taste. The price of 8.20 pounds per piece makes it worth trying, but not more than that.

Ordered with about 2 weeks notice to be delivered to Nottingham, I received a second confirmation a few days before and then again the day before! We had the passionfruit and pistachio and it was amazing! It was a very soft sponge and lots of flavour, not at all sickly. People compliment it and wanted to know where we'd got it. Really made the day special and it arrived extremely well packaged, not a scuff on the cake. Thank you for the great experience 👍

I discovered this bakery online and decided to order a birthday cake. The delivery was on time and the cake was delivered in perfect condition, despite the weather being over 35 Celsius! Clearly the delivery staff do their job carefully and the packaging did an amazing job protecting the cake too. I ordered a raspberry ripple cake and it looked fabulous and tasted delicious. The flavours were carefully balanced and you could taste the freshness of the ingredients. Overall, this was a very positive experience and I would highly recommend this bakery for fresh and exquisite cakes.

We had the pleasure of taking Mrs Patmore’s afternoon tea at the store this afternoon. We were seated downstairs and felt very much like we were on set. We were served by the lovely and attentive Omema and Fatima the store manager was really warm and friendly. We felt very welcome and the cakes and scones were delicious. The double chocolate caramel in particular was exceptional and the fruit scone was light and fluffy - went very well with clotted cream and gooseberry jam. Generous servings and spread. A wonderful way to spend Sunday afternoon. Many thanks to the team!

We came to Cutter & Squidge for afternoon tea and had a lovely time! The place is charming and the food was delicious, both the traditional and vegan versions. It was a hearty meal so we took the cakes away for later. The service was perfect, everyone was lovely to us! 💖

We had been invited to a Downtown Abbey themed tea at this very cool bakery/cafe. We were led downstairs where the room was transformed into Mrs Patmore’s kitchen. Literally the upstairs/downstairs lives of DA! The decorations were amazing. The spread was lovely and delicious. Fatima was friendly and welcoming. Have us various cake options along with the scones and sandwiches. Omema was providing very attentive table service. She patiently explained the various sweet treats and made the occasion very special - especially when we were celebrating our 29th wedding anniversary. Amazing experience! Give it a go and see how the other half lived!

Have not visited the restaurant, however, we ordered our wedding cake from Cutter & Squidge in June 2025. The cake was delivered without issues, customer service was great and the cake itself was absolutely delicious. The chosen flavours were Double Choc Salted Caramel and Raspberry - perfect for a summer wedding!

Ordered cake delivery online after let down by M&S and their cyber issue. What a blessing in disguise. I can’t fault the service. Delivered on time and well packaged. Chocolate fudge cake was delicious and everyone commented on how moist and tasty it was. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend and can’t wait to order again in the future. My new go to cake place!

Lovely cake shop with amazing chocolate cupcakes — rich, moist, and full of flavor! They also offer a great variety of other sweet treats and good coffee to go with it. Cozy atmosphere and friendly staff make it a perfect spot for a quick break or a sweet indulgence.

"when are we going to Violet" is the first planning step every time I have a trip to London planned. Claire's cookbooks are the most heavily used in my rotation at home, and inspire a lot of my own baking. My partner and I usually grab an assortment of desserts to share when here and sit on their little patio watching the world go by and tasting everything: cupcakes that are moist and topped with creative and full bodied icings, chewy and spiced cookies, mini pumpkin pies if they're in season: a little bit of everything. Nothing is too sweet and everything is big on flavor and texture. This most recent visit we tried the avocado and ham toasts which came on perfectly crusty sourdough with a runny egg and those were also a delight. Their coffee and matcha never disappoints either. My only regret is not living in London and not being able to go more often.

I enjoyed the strawberry cupcake at Violet but what was suggested (the scone with apricot was not good and expensive!). The filling just tasted like butter and the dough was mediocre. The service was weird too… the server got angry because I didn’t leave tip. It’s a bakery!

I entered this bakery thinking it would be a cute local spot. However, on entering, we did not feel very welcomed. We were greeted with nothing more than a mere half-hearted smile. The prices were on the high side, £17.10 for two cookies and 2 small drinks. The cookies were hard and dry. Whilst the hot chocolate was good, the matcha was lukewarm with clumps of matcha powder at the bottom. I would not recommend due to the poor service and lack of quality. Disappointing.

Ordered the chocolate buttercream cake for a birthday and it was so so good. The chocolate flavour was so rich in both the cake and cream - it was almost like a brownie cake. Super delicious and recommended!

I absolutely devoured the matcha blondie. I even started questioning myself if this was even real and how i was able to reach this level of satisfaction in life lmao 😭😭 love the place and the employees! Very cosy and highly recommend this place

The tahini brownie and cupcake cake were delicious, however the cupcake icing wasn’t as flavourful as I expected (was pleasantly not too sweet though). The service was wonderful, definitely worth a visit!

This depends completely what you’re going to have. Croissant was such a waste of money, 3.75£ for no butter flavour or layers, how do you even call it a croissant?? The sourdough bread was excellent on the other hand. Honestly they should just remove the croissant from the selection and they would have gotten 5 stars from here. A smile in the service wouldn’t hurt either.

I have visited Sweden a few times and one of my favourite things besides the lovely people are the delicious cakes and pastries. So I was really pleased to find out there was a branch of Fabrique in my area. Their signature cardamom and cinnamon buns are delicious and definitely recommended. However, my personal favourites have to be the almond and blueberry buns. They are the perfect weekend treat. The staff at this particular branch are also great. They are friendly and happy to answer questions and make general chat if they are not busy serving customers. My only request would be that I would love if Fabrique also served more traditional Swedish cakes like their bakeries in Sweden. I am sure the British public would love the Princess Cake.

We got the chocolate chip cookie which was a bit pricey and it tasted nice, but it could’ve been heated up and made to be softer. The interior is warm with nice music but the floors are a bit dirty and there is a limited seating area (one long bench only, no chairs).

Very cute bakery. The buns are amazing! I wanted to try everything. The vanilla bun is very nice!

Located right by Portobello Market in London, is a cool spot we tried. We had this almond Danish there, and honestly, it was amazing. It was packed with fillings, had a bit of a cardamom taste to it, and was super fresh. You could even smell the fresh sourdough they sell, which was nice. The only downside was that there weren’t many places to sit. It got pretty busy, and we ended up waiting around 5-10 minutes to get a seat. But if you don’t mind a short wait, it’s definitely worth checking out. The pastries are top-notch.

I love a good cinnamon bun, so when I stopped by the Notting Hill Fabrique today, that was the first thing I went for. It was spot on — perfectly baked, great flavour, and exactly what I wanted. And once I tried the cinnamon bun, I couldn’t resist picking up some bread as well. The rye with walnuts and cranberries has a deep flavour, the walnuts add a nice bite, and the cranberries give it that bit of sweetness. The half-white, half-brown sourdough is just a great everyday loaf, light but with that proper sourdough tang, and a really good crust. If you’re near Notting Hill, it’s worth stopping in. I’m already planning my next visit.

Absolutely great place for morning coffee with a fresh bun (the cardamom bun was my favorite) or croissant. Keep in mind that to-go prices are much lower than those for eating in the cafe. No wi-fi there.

Memorable. It was a tough choice, but I went with the coffee & cacao bun, and I’m so glad I did. Flaky on the outside, with a soft, layered pull inside, like a cross between a croissant and a brioche. Not doughy like babka, with just the right amount of chew and buttery stretch. Light enough to keep you coming back for more. I finished it in minutes. No regrets.

Jolene offers a great selection of pastries with well-made coffee to match (unfortunately only had soy or almond milk as alternatives). Also tried; 🥐Ham and cheese croissant - was flaky and elevated by a nice touch of mustard. 🥐 Pain au chocolat - was enjoyable, though the chocolate could have been more evenly distributed.

Small little pastry and bread shop with benches outside. No indoor seating. Much smaller than the one at Stoke Newington but equally good pastries! Love their pain au chocolat! Crispy fresh layers of buttery goodness! Coffee is also excellent! Rich nutty flavour with no extra charge for alternative milks! A little pricey but you get what you pay for.

Had the ham&cheese and pain suisse au chocolat. The chocolate one for me was really fantastic. It's crispy and flakey and is the type of pastry that's more filling than light? Anyways super recc

Haven’t try any of them pastries yet because every time I go there’s nothing I like left. Coffee is good. It’s self service and it’s take away.

Finally made my way a Jolene after wanting to visit for months! The location is beautiful, and the shop itself cute and tiny! I ventured there for the sticky toffee pudding cake which I had heard good things about online, and was lucky they were still in stock at about 12pm on a Friday, as they seemed out of most other things! The staff were friendly and I quite like the concept of being able to pick your own slice/item. Now let me tell you, this is one of the nicest cakes I have ever had. I am an avid sticky toffee lover, and this cake captured the vibe very well! The sponge is incredibly moist with a lovely caramel and date flavour and scent. The frosting - oh my, I have no I idea how they get it so smooth, and again, an amazing toffee flavour! While quite pricey, this is standard for London, and I shall definitely venture back to Jolene to try some of their other offerings! Update June 2024 - I have visited Jolene twice since this fiest occasion. Both times I chose two different cakes that were on the counter on the day (it is impossible to know in advance what may be there!). I got the Boston Cream Pie and Coconut Raspberry Layer Cake. Both these cakes have been absolutely exceptional. The service has also always been warm and welcoming. I will most definitely keep on coming back and recommend to anyone after a good slice of cake!

Just took my first sip of my quadruple Cortado… Obviously this is an old school roast! You just got a love keeping the through line from then to now on good coffee!

I’m on the hunt for the best cardamom bun in London this autumn, and this morning I stopped by Toklas Bakery to try one of theirs. The price seemed fair enough for London, but the bun itself was a disappointment. It was slightly burnt (I’d already eaten the most charred part before taking the photo), and there was hardly any cardamom flavour—if any at all. You can’t even see a trace of spice in the pastry (see picture). Perhaps their other bakes are better, but I wouldn’t recommend the cardamom bun.

One of the best bakeries in London! Whatever we tried was exquisite! The coffee as well! Fresh delicacies were constantly coming out of the oven! Can’t wait to visit again!

The pistachio frangipane and rhubarb pastry was truly one of the best pastries I’ve had in London. So decadent. Other pastries were good but not standout. Really nice location, loads of seating. Very talented barista

Really great pastries. And one of the soups I had back in February was divine. Would always come back. Their Sandwiches are dry as hell though. Don’t recommend them

A very sweet shop with a nice seating area – intimate lighting, not too loud, and a good choice of music. The staff were personable and welcoming. They had some interesting food creations that were very tempting, but quite a few items were already gone before midday. I had the Plum, Bay and Einkorn Galette – buttery, nutty pastry with just the right amount of sweetness. The bay flavour was very mild, only coming through in a few bites, and a few of the plum slices were a little bitter for my liking. I paired it with a single shot oat flat white, which was very nice – good flavour to the coffee as a single shot, with notes of earl grey tea, and served at a perfect temperature. It’s maybe not the best place to linger unless you’re ordering a lot, as there’s a steady stream of people coming in hoping to sit down. Towards the end of my visit, it felt like some customers were waiting for me to leave so they could snatch my table. It seems to attract a lot of corporate types on their lunch breaks, which might explain why it felt a bit rushed by the end. Worth the visit for the pastries and coffee. The lunches looked great as well so I’d definitely be returning.

We tried the apricot&thyme galette and croissant, both were delicious and I loved the interior design. We'll definitely go back to try more.

Great service. The pastries look great but suffer from not tasting of much. Such a shame as I have high hopes for Toklas. I’ve been here a few times and now realise why I don’t go here that often. It’s not cheap either. Nice crockery that they serve the coffee in.

We went for my birthday while visiting London. It was some of the best tea I have had. We loved the decorations in there and how cute it was. Every detail was thought out. They were allergy friendly and had a variety to chose form. The tea was bottomless and it was so delicious. It was so nice to be able to try different teas. The only downside is that it is very small in here so you felt like you were right on top of the people next to you. We made reservations ahead of time and I am so glad we did because if not the line was extremely long. I would highly recommend! Our server even put a candle on my finger foods for my birthday!

We reserved for a morning breakfast tea and it was nice actually all the pastries served was nice however the yogurt granola given was too sour that we couldnt eat all ..then that maybe can be amended .however, overall was all nice. Staff are hospitable they even offer to take photos for memories. Thank u so much

I visited Peggy Porschen Belgravia Ltd in June and had a wonderful experience. We ordered pancakes and coffee, and both were absolutely delicious. The café itself is stunning with beautiful decor that creates a lovely atmosphere. The waiter was exceptionally kind and attentive—he even offered to take a photo of us at the entrance when he noticed we were struggling to take one ourselves. His friendly and warm interaction with my children made the visit even more special. Highly recommend this place

The atmosphere is lovely and the place looks super Instagrammable, really pretty inside. We managed to get a table as walk-ins on a Saturday which was great. But WARNING: unfortunately the food was terrible. The avocado salmon sandwich had avocado that was clearly off, the eggs Benedict were extremely salty, and the lavender and rose lattes were sickeningly sweet. The cupcakes tasted really artificial too. Honestly, it feels like you only pay for the photos and nothing else. We’ve never eaten anywhere where both food and drinks were this bad. Paid £70 for two “mains”, coffees and two cupcakes. The staff didn’t even ask if the food was tasty or if everything was ok – probably because they already knew.

We visited Peggy Porschen during a short London stay. Super friendly staff, great atmosphere. We loved the cake. It tastes as gorgeous as it looks. Also the breakfast was awesome! If you are around in London and are in search of a piece of cake, a clear go-to place.

I cannot recommend Peggy Porschen more. In the past I have only stopped by for brunch or dessert but I recently purchased a birthday cake from them and could not be happier with the experience. I accidentally ordered the wrong flavour but the staff were very fortunately very kind and helpful about this and helped me get this fixed. I picked up the cake yesterday and it was absolutely perfect, I could not be more grateful. I’ve found in the past that a lot of the aesthetically pleasing cafes prioritise appearance over taste but Peggy never fails to deliver both, I could not recommend it more.

Fabulous and fun breakfast tea at 9:00 am on a warm sunny day. It was delicious and beautifully presented. Great selection of the usual 3 tier tea items but breakfast choices. French toast, avocado toast on brioche, scones and sweet treats. Wonderful. Peggy Porschen's is so charming. I recommend going for either the traditional afternoon tea that I've done twice or change it up and do the breakfast or do both! Either way you won't be disappointed. Excellent service also every time I've been there also.

Stumbled upon this hidden gem near King's Cross station by chance and after trying couldn’t believe it wasn’t much busier than it is. The chocolate almond croissant was perfect - flaky, rich, and generously loaded with sliced almonds and had a gorgeously melted bar of good chocolate inside. The plain croissant? Deep golden layers, buttery aroma, crisp on the outside and soft within. Coffee was spot-on. Strong, smooth, and made with care. Friendly service, no fuss, no rush. Just great pastries, great coffee, and a quiet spot to enjoy them. One of the best bakeries I've tried in London. Will return.

Found this place because of the good reviews. It’s sooo outstanding that we came here every morning to eat breakfast during our stay. The soft buttery/flakiness of the croissant is insane. We really enjoyed the peach pastry, croque bread and the grilled veggies bread. It’s packed and delicious. The chamomile tea is also super nice. The staff are very friendly and speedy. If i’m in london again i would definitely come back for this gem!!

From the window, everything looked and smelled delicious, and it was! It was very difficult to choose what to eat because everything looked delicious. The chocolate bar and cappuccino were delicious! A special mention for the friendly and warm service I received.

Very disappointed, yet another place for a stale croissant. Really can't find any good croissant here in London. It was so dry, the outside was like stale bread crust, it was even kinda hard to bite...

How rare it is to find pastries so delicious. And how rarer to find food of such quality presented with such exuberance. Ryan and Sham, with their picture perfect hairlines and haircuts, were on the scene when I attended. Their winning smiles and sense of humour accompanied the breathtaking almond pain au chocolat and croissant. I can’t wait to sample all the offerings on the menu!!!

Very generous portions. Almond pain Au chocolate was great. 👌

This is my first visit to London and my first ever croissant! I got the chocolate croissant and it did not disappoint. The gentleman and lady behind the counter were warm and welcoming. Definitely worth a stop if you’re in this area! It was so good I didn’t even wait to get a picture🙈

Wow!! What a selection, what a bakers, what customer service!! I ordered a special cake and 48hrs it was ready to collect and the engraving I asked for, perfectly done, just as I asked for! Would recommend any day, even just for a visit to see (or sample) the cakes!

Hyper-cosy mycket-mysig cutesy Swedish konditeri in oh so historical Rose Street, enveloped by kitsch, hipsterian Covent Garden. Tiny place - only 3 people can sit spread horizontally. So better for buns and coffee to go. They cater best for passing trade. Cakes and coffees delicious - buns decidely moreish and very authentically Swedish. My visit co-incided with two afficianadi of Swedish baking; if they were impressed (and they were) it must have been good. It was. In Sweden fika is like a religion. I think the Bishop of Stängnäs will be blessing the dough daily from now on! [By the way I've met his eminence in person].

Delicious and prime quality! The pastries were tender and buttery and the service excellent: we got to try a broken pastry for free and the girls were very enthusiastic to share about the bakery. The cinnamon bun was a litttle bit too dry but still tasty in the amount of spice.

They are comparable to any bakery in Stockholm👌 they even make the princess cake. It is pretty small, but the atmosphere is cosy. The pastries were delicious, but the pistachio one was a little too sweet for me. The coffee can be improved.

Wow, what a fantastic place. Not just the best Scandinavian bakery I've been to, but maybe one of the best bakeries in general. Such an amazing choice of delicious treats, as well as kind and friendly service. The shop was cute and quaint, it felt so festive and warm on a cold November day. This will definitely be a regular stop of mine whenever I'm in the area, I'll have to treat myself to a slice of the princess cake on a special day, and I can't wait for semla season which is one of my favourite sweet treats of all time! :)

Good coffee in central London! I forgot to have my coffee at home, so I was looking for a good one. In the CG market, they wanted £6 for a flat latte. No way! I feel so lucky I found this cafe! I was amazed by this cosy, nested shop on a narrow side street in Covent Garden. Very cute, the coffee was nice ( yeah, I mean it) then I HAD to try a giant pastry with chocolate and custard! OMG, it was as lovely as it looked. The coffee (£3) was good; I had it properly: seated, in a proper cup, not those polluting takeaway cups, you hang around with. Even the owner was nice! She said they want to make the shop as welcoming as possible. I'll have to come back.

This place is so cosy and the bakes are authentic and very very tasty! If you're into almond flavoured bakes their mazarin is perfect! Cinnamon buns remind me of the ones I had growing up in Sweden. I'll definitely be returning here frequently with aim to work through all the bakes. Staff were so lovely as well and enthusiastic about the bakes they're selling

I wanted to love this bakery but I felt my almond croissant was a little too sweet. It was well filled and the pastry was extra buttery. The cinnamon buns looked amazing here so I would come back to try. Only two outdoor seats for seating. Pastries range from £3.5-£6 so some are definitely on the premium priced side. My almond croissant was £4.50.

As we were eating our croissants outside an older lady walked past and blared out “I can’t just walk past, I have to get one”. And it makes sense once you try one. Delicious heavenly croissants. This is an exceptional bakery offering a range of both sweet and savory croissants.

A truly lovely local bakery with amazing pastries. Out of the oven fresh, all absolutely delicious made with fresh and quality ingredients. Their coffee is also phenomenal.

Visited today with a friend and got a hot chocolate (made with real chocolate) £5 and a pistachio and chocolate swirl for £6.80. Hot chocolate was creamy and rich in flavour, and the pastry was very flaky and a generous size. There's a few seats outside and a very small seating area inside which can get very noisy and crowded very quickly. Two small tables and a side bar table, could probably seat about 8 people? I was lucky to get a table but others weren't. Very cozy and cute interior, lovely staff and nice selection of pastries. There's also workshops which I'd be curious about!

The pastries looked "to die for". We ordered a Pistachio pastry and the "special pastry of the day" with walnuts and raisins. They were BOTH so bready and tasteless, heavy and disappointing. Unless I was chewing a raising or a walnut there was zero taste and I could have been eating a bread roll. It's a pity because they both looked so yummy and stunning, but from a taste perspective - tasteless. Service was good, atmosphere was ok, nothing to really write home about, as sitting around the corner in a different room was what it was.

Went to this bakery because of all the hype, but it was honestly not worth it. I ordered the “famous” pistachio & chocolate swirl, and it was cold and not tasty at all. The service was nothing special—just the same as any other bakery. The atmosphere was disappointing too; there were flies inside and even on the food. Definitely not the experience I was expecting.

Cute little bakery with a big selection of sweet and savoury. I wish they had more meat sandwich options (I only saw vegetarian options). The staff were very helpful as to what to choose - the cinnamon bun was great, not too sweet and soft.

Adorable cafe, I’d come here to study, light music playing in the background and wasn’t too busy when I went on a Friday. They provide free lemon water too, self serve. The cream bun was very milky and creamy, but could be too much for one person cos the shear amount of cream. I shared it with a friend and that was just right, the bread rolls used tasted quite dry.

When I feel nostalgic of home or I want a nice sweet treat, FORNO is my go to bakery. The Veneziana pastry is my top favourite , paired with the perfect jasmine tea. I tried the Tiramisù which it was ok, the savoiardi should be soaked in a bit more coffee imo, coz I could barely taste it, but the layer of mascarpone is super generous. Yum! I like the general vibe of the place, staffs have always been nice too.

Good quality bakery yes, fine ingredients. We arrived at 13h and there was almost no more choice in pastries… the hype over the creamy pastry was over made: the whipped cream was a lot and the brioche normal. The lemon custard was a too much cream. At first, our almond croissant was super dry, but thankfully the staff kindly exchanged it for some of the freshly newly baked ones and these were very warm and buttery! Don’t get me wrong: good bakery, but just not the best and missing a range of selection… Maybe italian pastries are just not my favs personally?

Stopped by Forno in Hackney on a Saturday afternoon while walking around Victoria Park. Tried their bakery selection and coffee – both were fine, but nothing that really stood out. The space is nice and it’s a convenient spot if you’re in the area, but overall the experience was just okay.

Perfectly located to enjoy the good weather on a pretty morning day! The pastry was delicious but a bit dry on the outside :( the coffee was good!

Small menu of savoury lunch items (my pizza al taglio was very good) and some delectable pastries. Open plan bakery - busy and buzzy. Good coffee

Friendly staff. Awesome to watch the bakers at work. Most importantly the coffees and pasties were great. The lemon curd one was my fave and the custard bun my friends gave.

I was very impressed with Birely Bakery it was like being transported to Paris or boulangerie in France, the interior replicates perfectly a French bakery shop. They had a range of patisseries I chose a croissant and an orange and cinnamon madeleine and the croissant was very good. Usually croissants in bakeries are quite dry and lack that butter flavour, but Birley nails the French croissant. You can tell by the butter! The madeleine was very good as well.

The Almond pain au chocolat was so good, I ordered another two the next day. Honestly, the best one I've ever had. Slight crunch on the outside, filled with the right amount of almonds and chocolate. I could be wrong, but I think its also dipped in rum syrup? It gives it a slightly sticky coating which adds to the experience. The pastry was buttery and flakey, how it should be. The brownie was good too, but the Pain Au Chocolat blew me away. Next time I will try some other pastries and add to this review.

Sunny Sunday morning vibes 😎 nothing better than a slow walk and a mission: to finally try what everyone keeps calling the best croissant in London. I wanted to see if the hype was real. I went classic and ordered a plain croissant and a pain aux amandes. Then I spotted a half jambon-beurre sitting in the vitrine basically calling my name… so yeah, that joined the party too. Let me start with the croissant: incredible. Flaky in all the right ways, buttery without being greasy, and the inside had that perfect airy honeycomb structure. Honestly, it could stand proudly next to some of the top bakeries in Paris. It was that good. The pain aux amandes was fine, but it didn’t have that deep almond flavor or texture I usually look for. And the jambon-beurre was solid, though I personally would’ve gone with a salted butter to make the whole thing pop. Tip💡: Grab your croissant to go, then walk across the street to Amar Café for a coffee and enjoy everything in the little square outside. It completes the whole experience 👌🏼

Just tried Birley Bakery and I’m seriously impressed! Their baked goods are absolutely delicious — especially the sablé and the baguette, both were top-tier. You can really taste the quality. Also, big shoutout to Jawanza — super helpful, kind, and made the whole experience even better. Great service makes all the difference! Definitely coming back. 🍞🥐👏 I Think I forgot my charger there 🤣 save it I will come back.

Birley Bakery in Chelsea is a cozy, authentic French bakery-café that feels like a little slice of Paris in London. Tucked on Cale Street near King’s Road, it offers a welcoming atmosphere with beautifully displayed pastries you rarely find elsewhere in the city — from delicate tartes Tropéziennes to inventive puff-pastry creations. Despite the Saturday morning rush, the staff were cheerful, patient, and genuinely kind as I took my time deciding what to order. A true gem for anyone seeking exceptional French baking and warm service in one of London’s poshest neighborhoods.

The BEST almond croissant I’ve had in London. Very well balanced and I enjoyed every single bite of it. Very highly recommended.

Such a lovely place Great for morning coffee alone or meeting with friends. Good choice of drinks and pastries, desserts. Friendly team. Good seating areas

I stopped by Hummingbird Bakery in Portobello and was completely blown away! The cupcakes were perfection… soft, rich, and full of flavour. But what really stood out was the amazing customer service. Julia went above and beyond, she was friendly, patient, and genuinely passionate about helping me choose the best flavours. I’ll definitely be coming back again soon!

Talk about going downhill! Spent over £100 on cupcakes but zero attention to detail when being delivered and to top it off there was a hair in one of the boxes 🤢🤮. All of the cupcakes were overturned upon arrival. They arrived in a bag Some genius also thought it would be a good idea to tape the boxes together causing the cardboard to rip - not great for presentation. Shocked by how far the standards have fallen. Overpriced for flour and sugar and that too such messy presentation. Another business destroyed by private equity.

I absolutely love this bakery. Their cakes are really soft and moist, tasty frosting, and the slice you get for the price and quality is just amazing! My favourite is the rainbow cake. The cupcakes are delicious as well, my favourite are the vanilla ones! The staff are also feally friendly and nice ☺️ 100% recommend 🧁

Passed by hummingbird bakery when on the way home and absolutely loved the first time walking in and will highly recommend to others and will be passing by again. Excellent cupcakes and many selections available to choose from. Shoutout to Julia for her lovely customer service and helping me choose the best cupcakes whilst being very friendly, and personally good first experience.

What a delicious bakery. Hadn’t lost its touch throughout the years. Pity there was no coffee available, to complement the cake. The raspberry and cream cake was delicious, perfect texture, heavier than a sponge but not too heavy, flavours blended perfectly together. Icing classical sweetness of this bakery, very rich. It’s a lovely pick me up treat. The shop was very clean, staff was very polite. Great price.

Very cute bakery located in the Portobello Market. Has a wide selection of beverages and cakes. I ordered Salted Caramel coffee and just loved it!one of the better ones I have had so far! The display at the place was great and I will go again to try the cakes as well

Favorite cupcake place with super yummy and rich cupcakes! They have cute Christmas boxes too!! Have been back twice and always getting the red velvet as it’s too good!

This chain cafe is located on Shaftesbury Avenue, near Covent Garden, about a 10mins walk from the underground station, making it very easy to find. The cafe is small and mainly sells various buns and breads. The two staff members were friendly. We ordered a Walnut Bun, a Cinnamon Bun, and a Latte. Unfortunately, both the food and coffee were very average. I probably won’t be returning next time.

Fabrique is such a charming bakery! We tried the cardamom bun which was deliciously fragrant, though a touch dense and enjoyed it with a coffee. Can’t wait to come back and try their famous cinnamon bun, which we’ve heard amazing things about!

Lovely bakery, there’s a few around town. The have ~12 items daily -aside from loafs-, so ordering is easy and each item is crafted to perfection, the sourdough bread is delightful, the sweet goods very good too. Very limited seating with about 5 2 seater tables.

The almond bun was fine but a bit too sweet to me, and the almond was not as pronounced as I would have liked it to be. It was also cold and did not taste super fresh. Note that even the almond bun was based on the classic one so had a lot of cardamom. Overall on top of buns this bakery has bread / baguettes and some sweet options too, as well as croissants

We had the cardamon bun. İt was divine. We bought a rye bread with seeds. We wanted them to slice the bread, they said no. They wouldn't give us a knife to cut it. We sat down there have a coffee and tried to break the bread, made a mess of it. İ find these UK rules around knives a little funny. We have been serviced by someone who doesn't smile, like at all. She even didn't have the common courtesy of doing it. The place looked clean but felt like you are not welcome there.

Wanted to try out this rustic looking quaint bakery at Covent Garden. Tried a Hot chocolate which I would rate 3/5. Nothing special. The Cinnamon bun was cold, dense and nowhere near the quality or taste you get in other London Bakeries. The aesthetics is nice but service, I am afraid I cannot recommend.

It was literally the worst cappuccino I had recently. Prices for coffee were nowhere near available to see. I was charged £3.80 for a small cup, which is expensive even for Covent Garden area. Service was "excellent", haven't felt welcome at all, nothing was said by any of two girls behind the till. Definitely do not recommend.

During our short London visit (just 3 days), we visited twice! (yes, that is how much we loved it)! Here I ate, hands down, one of the most amazing scones of my life! The maple one! Highly recommended if you are in London. They use the most fresh and quality ingredients and their products are super-fresh and tasty! Not to be missed!

Beautiful place and weather 💫 Our order was: - Mozzarella & Pesto sandwich 9/10. yummy - Raspberry & Pistachio bun 8.5/10. Good taste - Chocolate & Almond croissant 10/10. So yummy i like it so much - Tomatoes & Courgette slice 0/10 . We don’t like it - Croissant - Flat white 3/10. Seems like milk without coffee.

Absolutely loved my visit to Gail’s Bakery near the London Eye! The place has such a warm and inviting feel, with a great mix of locals and visitors. Everything looked fresh, and the smell of baked goods was irresistible. I tried a croissant and a flat white — both were excellent. The team was friendly, the service was quick, and it’s the perfect spot to take a break while exploring the area. Highly recommend stopping by if you’re nearby!

Delicious and highly recommend. Had the squash and sage frittata and a carrot cake cupcake—both super tasty. But that carrot cake cupcake—it is dangerously good (high likelihood I’ll return for another).

Stopped by Gail’s Southbank while exploring the area solo, and it turned out to be a lovely break. I had a sushi sandwich, a cheese stick (which was absolutely delicious), and an Americano — everything tasted fresh and well-made. The quality of food really stands out, especially if you enjoy baked savoury items done right. The location is fantastic, with outdoor seating that gives you a nice view of the London Eye — perfect for people-watching or just taking in the riverside atmosphere. A couple of things to keep in mind: it’s a bit pricey, and if it starts raining (which it did!), the indoor seating is quite limited, so finding a spot can be tricky. That said, if you're after fresh, flavourful food in a great location and don’t mind paying a little more for it, Gail’s Southbank is definitely worth a visit.

We stopped by Gail’s Bakery near the London Eye for breakfast and it did not disappoint! Everything we tried was delicious from the pastries to the yogurt pot, but the real standout was the soufflé sandwich. So fluffy, savory, and satisfying truly my favorite! Cozy atmosphere, friendly staff, and top-quality food. Whether you’re grabbing a quick bite before sightseeing or just looking for a great breakfast spot, I’d definitely recommend stopping here!

Initially I thought Gail's is a private owned cafe, but later found out that it is a chain bakery/cafe that baked fresh, handmade bread, pastries and cakes every day, served with their house blend specialty coffee. I think Gail's specialized in baking first which is why their sandwiches or bread tasted better than the coffee, but I still enjoyed my lunch combo.

A High-End Illusion Home House is undoubtedly a stunning building with a rich and fascinating history. From the outside, and even upon first entry, it markets itself as an exclusive, high-end members club, a place to see and be seen. Unfortunately, the reality falls far short of the image they portray. The interiors, while initially charming, are clearly neglected. If you take a closer look, much of the furniture is extremely worn, to the point where the sofas in the Drawing Room are completely unusable. It’s a far cry from the luxury they advertise. More concerning, however, is the persistent issue of rats. I, along with several other members, have witnessed rats both indoors, including in the Drawing Room, and outside in the garden, at all times of day. When raised with management, the response is always the same: "It’s an old building." While true, many buildings in London are centuries old, and they manage to maintain proper pest control. This excuse has worn thin. You’ll often overhear staff speaking candidly about the issues that management attempts to sweep under the rug. One of the most shocking revelations was the state of the kitchen. I had heard rumours of a poor hygiene rating earlier this year, which was then quietly amended. I didn’t want to believe it – until I accidentally walked into the kitchen/staff area while heading to the "spa" (which is just the sauna FYI). What I saw confirmed everything. The hygiene standards were appalling and completely unacceptable for a club of this supposed calibre. I cancelled my membership immediately and will not be returning. It’s a real shame, the potential is there, but Home House appears more concerned with maintaining appearances than actually delivering on the promises of luxury, comfort, or safety.

The venue is excellent and has a nice atmosphere. Went there as a guest of a member a while back. But I saw a bar manager being very abusive and rude to one of the other staff members in view of other patrons. I’ve worked in hospitality for many years so I understand the stress involved sometimes but it wasn’t a particularly busy evening. Uncalled for and soured the experience. Will not be going back.

We had our meeting at the beautiful Octagone Room, and Mr. Zaheer truly went above and beyond with his professionalism and warm hospitality. He made our gathering feel extra special and memorable. The food was fantastic, but it was Zaheer’s exceptional service that really stood out. A big thank you to Zaheer and everyone who helped make our meeting such a great experience!

Great service, stunning rooms in home house each one being different and having their own identity. Thanks to Damian we had an amazing birthday party for our son's 40th birthday party.

Excellent cuisine the interior is meticulously crafted. The staff is elegant and polite. A place worth recommending.

Lovely building, atrocious food. Extortionate prices for below-average 'wedding' food. Staff were average at best, but didn't really have the etiquette the surroundings would make you believe you'd expect. Great for pretentious folk, but that's about it.

Excellent hotel - very comfortable- nice rooms - shower pressure is unreal !!💪🏼Ceasar salad in restaurant was outstanding!

Gorgeous and cozy place. Lovely staff. Very attentive. Starters were amazing. We had the truffle scallop and peach/tomato salad. The salad was incredible. The mains were also very good but a bit forgettable. We had the pork saffron tagliatelle and the Dover sole. Dessert was incredible and well thought out. Both the berries diplomat and blood peach soft serve. Drinks menu was nice and had a gorgeous selection. The strawberry rhubarb mocktail was so good. Will definitely come again but probably only for a lot of small plates! Think the food would’ve been a five if we opted for all starters, considering skipping the mains!

very overpriced for odd combinations of food. we ordered all the recommendations from the staff and was very disappointed with everything. Left hungry and horrible taste palettes. The mushroom dish was essentially two spoonful of mushroom w four slices of spec for £16. The cured grey mullet that was highly recommended by the staff was a really weird combination, extremely fishy taste and the macha does not fair well with it at all. The only dish that didn’t disappoint is really the bread and butter. Overall not worth the visit. You can probably get a Michelin meal with the same amount of money for the horrible food here

A strong choice if you're looking for a buzzy venue for a chatty dinner. The food is inventive, stylish and light. The team is friendly and attentive. It will nevertheless be an expensive dinner - the food is so light that you have to order a lot to avoid going away hungry. It's also extremely loud due to the dense seating and hard surfaces.

loved loved loved Jolene! such great and tasty food from the restaurant and you can’t miss the goodies from the bakery either. we loved it so much, we visited twice in one week! a highlight of our London trip

Great staff - service was top tier. Casual but friendly and attentive. Loved the starters. Literally wanted to lick the sauce of the plate of the lobster dish (and they brought over extra bread for us to do so). Def will be back but will likely opt for more starters and skip the main as it was just a little too heavy for us after enjoying the first dishes.

What a neighborhood gem! The food was fantastic! Every plate we ordered was unique and the chilled wine was paired finely! The staff is very attentive and friendly. The atmosphere of the restaurant is also great!

Have been meaning to go for a while now. Could not get reservations forever but finally got some very last minute which I was excited about. Commuted 50 minutes. It was a £50 cancellation fee per person. A bit of a let down when it came to the restaurant. I enjoyed the atmosphere of the place. The food wasn’t the best ☹️We started off with only a couple of dishes to see how to go from there. The way the dishes are presented is odd. Apparently every meal ordered is a sharing meal, so they give you small plates depending on how many people you are and only present one dish at a time. We were a group of 4. Off the menu, there are 14 dishes. We were told that usually a group our size orders from 8-16 dishes (assuming you order two of some things) which was a bit overwhelming considering the price points of these dishes and the portions presented. ( Please keep in mind I am constantly reviewing restaurants of different price ranges and evaluating based on what I truly think is worth the cost. This is not a trait where I am being stingy lol) We ended up ordering two starters and three mains. They said we can order more once the food comes out. I guess that’s quite common. Bread and Butter was Great. The Aubergine was fine. Tiny portion considering its sharing. The best dish was the beef ragu but even then it was a bit too oily. I want to reiterate that these portions are very small. I understand that may be why you should order 8-16 dishes but that just seems greedy lol. The Gnocchi was served as flat squares. When asked about the shape, it’s apparently sometimes done that way? Not an issue but found a bit odd. And the sauce on the gnocchi was very bland. We also got the Cod but it was sat on top of green beans cooked in a sort of tomato sauce. Odd combination. The cod was VERY bland. I truly truly did want to like this restaurant but it was disappointing. It was also where I chose to take my cousin who came from abroad so I just had higher expectations. I think I will be back for the bakery opening times because I’ve heard great things.

I’m not usually a fan of pastries, but this café is something else. Soft and fluffy inside, with a crisp golden crust — absolutely delicious. Honestly, I’m glad it’s not right next to my home, otherwise I’d be eating these pastry every day! The atmosphere is cozy, the coffee is excellent, and the staff are friendly. Definitely worth a visit

A small store offering own brand merchandise, some fine baked goods, and delicious coffee with good service. The passion fruit bow is custardly good.

Really yummy passion fruit ribbon! The babka was also good but drier than i like. Tea not as fragrant as i’d like but the pastries made up for it

5* coffee with absolutely perfect milk, which is certainly not always the case even in coffee shops. Bought a sourdough - their loaves look great - but haven’t tried it yet. Lovely chilled and welcoming atmosphere. Hidden gem! EDIT: Tried the sourdough and had to go back the next day to get more. DELICIOUS

I arrived at the cute bakery around 9.30am on Sunday morning. There was positive energy radiating from the staff inside. 😍 Their friendly attitude and positive energy warmed my heart.💞 It is definitely a very welcoming Bakery 💖 there is a very nice smell of bread inside and everything is fresh. Cereal Milk Cookie is a different and wonderful taste.👌 Everything is fresh and perfect.🤤👏 The staff, the flavors, everything is 10/10👌 I will definitely come back again❤️🥰

Was recommended this place and will definitely be returning. They have a fantastic range of pastries for a little bakery which were all delicious and buttery. My favourite was the doughnut which was sugary and soft and flavourful without being too sweet. I haven’t yet had a chance to try the bread but I will go back to do so. My only comment was for the eaten mess bun the icing didn’t go the whole way through the bun. I believe this is human error tho as I have seen on their Instagram others do and for that I won’t impact the star rating.

An absolute gem of a bakery, friendly staff, great selection AND a bread slicer. Their cruffins were among the best I’ve sampled at any bakery, with immaculate layers. I got there at around 11.30 and everything was fresh and still warm.

Got the matcha snow ice, and it was delicious. Highly recommend to share between 2 people. There is limited seating, but there’s still enough room if you want to drop by for a quick snack

The crepe cakes here are delicious! I've sampled a few, and the chocolate mousse is definitely my favorite. While the vanilla and Oreo cookie flavors were tasty, I found them a bit too sweet. The Japanese cheesecake was also a hit. My only minor quibble is that the prices are a bit steep, but the service was good

Cute patisserie with minimal seating, only 2 stands a 3 small tables. Serving lovely Japanese desserts and matcha. I tried their Dubai chocolate milled crepes and it was very tasty. Several locations around London. It definitely worths a visit!

A small, simple cafe with more or less 15 seats. Had to try matcha mille crepe to balance out their Tiramisu bingsu -- which was not to "tiramisu"-ey, but it's cool to eat anyway. Matcha flavor is good, but doesn't have a strong flavor like the ones you get to try if you've ever been in Japan. Always having our usual take out of chocolate mille crepe which is by far the best in town! 😋 And we go back for it everytime we're in the capital. 😍👌🏻

Particular love for their Yuzu Matcha Slushie but anything I've tried here was delicious! I love that the cafe closes later at night, perfect for an eve hangout with friends without having to go out drinking at a pub ~

This is my favourite place for cheese cake and tiramisu. I love the coffee art and the cup here, looks really cute. Place is bit small and cozy but cake is to die for. I would definitely advise to try cheesecake and tiramisu. I have been here number of times for cheesecake.

Absolutely! Here's a more enthusiastic version with emojis: Such a great spot for bubble tea 🧋 and cakes 🍰! The Basque cheesecake was delicious, but the real star for me was the Matcha Tart 🍵—you can really taste that rich, bold matcha flavor! I also had the Matcha Bubble Tea, and the combo was perfect 😋. The cakes are a bit rich, but with the drinks, it’s just right. Highly recommend this place! Can’t wait to come back! 💚✨

Dunn's Bakery is a reliable spot for a quick bite or fresh loaf of bread when you're in the neighborhood. While they might not be the most extraordinary bakery in town, they consistently deliver decent quality. We've never had a bad experience, so they're always a safe bet for a satisfying treat.

Australian’s love their sausage rolls served hot, often with ketchup, so it was very exciting to not only see these beauties in the hot oven BUT ALSO for the ketchup to be put INSIDE THE SAUSAGE ROLL when we asked for sauce. What is this SORCERY (saucery🤭)? I don’t know but I didn’t mess about to find out. Acquired and devoured in minutes. Pure magic! 😋🤤👏 Vegan sausage rolls also available.

I had a lovely time at Dunn's Bakery, enjoying coffee and cake outdoors with a friend. The atmosphere was relaxed, and cakes tasted great. A small mishap happened when my paper cup broke and some coffee spilled. To my surprise, one of the shop assistants noticed from inside and immediately came out to offer me a new cup—without me even needing to ask. Although I had already poured the coffee into my own bottle and didn't need the replacement, I truly appreciated his attentiveness and quick response. It’s also worth noting that during these challenging times of inflation, Dunn’s continues to provide excellent service, employing at least four shop assistants at the front desk to ensure customers are well taken care of. That shows strong commitment from the owner to both staff and customers. Overall, a warm and thoughtful experience—thank you, Dunn’s!

I was so impressed with Dunn’s Bakery! I called them because I needed a birthday cake urgently — within an hour the cake was already on our table. The ladies were incredibly professional and kind; they even waited for the Uber driver I had arranged to pick up the cake and bring it to me in Willesden Green. Everything went smoothly, and the cake brought so much joy! Thank you for your amazing service and quick help — truly professional and kind people! 🎂💛

Quality bakery. Tastes well and fresh. Loved them!

Thank you to Dunns and my lovely boyfriend for the perfect bday cake and cupcakes ever !! It was soo delicious and we had such a good time !

Dunns is one of the reasons to be alive. Regardless of what time of day it is, they’ve got the snack for you. You probably want to try the London coconut cheesecake (assuming you’ve already got your sausage roll - non vegan or vegan - because of course you have).

Wow! Absolutely amazing! Came here for the first time having been drawn by their Guinness cake and ended up leaving with a few other baked goodies. Wanted to try their pizza/pies being Saturday, but maybe due to heatwave, there was no pizza, but did get a mortedella and mozzerella sarnie in focaccia. That was very tasty. Decent amount of filling, moist focaccia and a good bit of chutney...think may have been apricot and raisins, giving it a good tang. Also bought a Cheddar and Kimchi focaccia, tried a bit of that fresh; pleasantly surprised, it is nice and fluffy. Looking forward to making a nice sarnie from it at home. Although some of the top looks burnt, it isn't actually burnt and actually gives it a nice crust cheesy topping. The Harissa and Feta scone also very worthy of trying. Probably one of the best scones I have had, nice and fresh with a fluffiness to it, unlike hard scones I have had from elsewhere in the past. The harissa and feta really goes well. Can be eaten on its own, no need to add anything to it. Have not tried the coconut pineapple iced finger or cookie yet. The Guinness cake was very moist, not heavy and the cream on top is light tasting, which really complements the cake, which is not too sweet, in fact the right sweetness as I don't like overly sweet stuff. I think they really nailed the taste of the Guinness cake, so will definitely go back for that. Regretted not getting the peach pie, not realising it is limited edition and not a regular item. Queued about 25 minutes to be served, so not too bad. The staff were very friendly and welcoming, and the two co-owners were there busy baking, but still looked up to give a welcoming greeting. If you love good quality and tasty baked goods, would really recommend you try. One of the best bakeries in SE London.

there was a queue at opening time which is surprising for a weekday (thursday). can’t imagine what it’s like on the weekend. nonetheless all the pastries were delicious - got the feta tomato olive galette, guinness cake, mortadella focaccia sandwich, and creamed corn n’duja bun. all a hit

Amazing freshly baked goods. Been here so many times as I live in the area and always so impressed by how good they are. Everything on the menu is amazing but I’d totally recommend focaccia and Guinness cake. Absolutely beautiful! The only downside is the massive queue especially on a Saturday morning but it’s worth the wait.

Unfortunately, the porridge oat loaf was far underbaked. Never had a loaf so underbaked before from any bakery, the weight should have been a giveaway. The end pieces that were fine to eat were very tasty, so that’s a positive. Other items were far more successful, in particular the malted milk bun I’d brave the queue for, were it not for the loaves. A bakery that underbakes bread is a no from me (I see it’s been an issue in some other reviews). Edit: appreciate the reply. Did try other methods to contact. I understand things do slip through but can assure it’s from an underbake. Second edit: Apologies if that review comes across as harsh, but it was my first time visiting and I went out of my way by an hour, then queued up for 20 minutes. It was worth it for the other baked goods, but the bread that we bought for dinner was raw. Not just a little under baked, raw dough. My gf had a bite then got stomach ache immediately. Happy to share pics/video - we did message on Instagram but it couldn’t go through. Didn’t realise that you can email in, noted.

Finally made it here and it went beyond the expectations. Staff so humble and kind. Food 10/10. Shame I live so far but will definitely come back

Service level and love of craft are incredible. They love what they do and you can taste it in the food. You’ll definitely wait in the queue, but it will be worth it.

Yummy yummy yummy. Very nice baked goods, both savoury and sweet. The Guinness Cake was insane.

There was a lot of hype about this bakery, so while I was in south London I wanted to try it out. The cinnamon bun was nice - but didn't over excite my taste buds. We tried a few other specials like the tahini one, unfortunately, they were not to my taste. However, if you're passing give them a try. Always good to support ethical businesses

Amazing and delicious bakery, fresh buns and the crisp and flavoursome focaccia are amazing and definitely worth the queue. Service was great, relaxed and helpful. Some unusual flavours so not your standard bakery and not for the fussy eaters!

Amazing bakery! We arrived at 11 on a Sunday and waited in the queue for about 20 minutes. We ordered a mix of sweet and savory buns, focaccia and a coffee and everything was delicious

Love coming here before work to meet friends. Ever changing menu can be checked on their insta with day ahead updates in stories. Staff are exceptionally charming and chatty. The special syrups make great coffees I loved cardamom one and now the sage latte is delicious. I reccomend going with appetite and getting a few things to share so don’t have to decide between and won’t be disappointed. My friend and I like to get a sweet and a savoury each and split…and usually a couple extra to take home. Sweet buns can be a bit too sweet for my taste but what I love is the savoury sweet are always a great balance and foccacia is the best (shata and the olive are faves so far). Cookies good too, the nigella and cardamom and anise was amazing as is the mastic, almond and white chocolate. I hope they stay for a long time, I travel especially to go as used to get when they were at Crystal Palace market. This business deserves success as what they do is so unique, talented and special. Only seats are high so tricky with pushchair or wheelchair so recommend take out. Not easy parking but good links to transport as behind bus stop. Park opposite has lots of benches. Thanks for delicious Palestinian flavours.

I've been wanting to go forever and finally did today and OMG it was sooo worth the wait. Genuinely the best Focaccia bread I've EVER had!!! And the buns are to die for!!! Super delicious, moist and not overly sweet. The flavours are so unique and rooted in Palestinian heritage. They also sell merch and other items which parts (or up to 100%) of profits go to charities supporting the people of Palestine! ❤️🖤🤍💚

Love love LOVE. I run here pretty much every Sunday, best motivation I've found!! The OG cinnamon is a must, the chocolate halva is unreal and honestly everything I've had is top tier. Cherry on top is that the people are wonderful. Bunhead is good for the soul 💖

Delicious buns in fun and unique Palestinian flavour combinations. The baklava bun had super strong rose flavour! The tahini and grape molasses caramel bun was our favourite and had a perfect sweet and salty balance. We also had the salty bun which was very satisfying. There was no wait on a Friday morning at 10:30am.

I really wanted to like this place more. Long wait times (25minutes) with one person serving, quite pricey and then the items in my opinion were quite average/didn’t overwhelm me. I got three pastry items (no bread) that amounted to £17, which I feel is a quite expensive. One of the pastries was quite oily to the point that the paper bag it was put in was completely soaked through by the time I got home (less than 10minutes away).

No wonder this bakery has a line formed in front of it before it even opens. They only open Thursday to Saturday, and once they are out, they are out. I had a cinnamon roll, which was delectable 😋. The mascarpone icing was not too sweet, and though the bun had caught a little (I thought), it did not take away from its morish and fluffy taste and texture. I will definitely be visiting again and would highly recommend it. I also tasted the pear and oat crumble Danish, which was so good. I need a whole one next time 😊.

It really went downhill in the past two months. Used to come for the sandwiches, the egg salad was our fav and they usually changed the filling every couple of weeks, the veggie one stayed the same for ages now. We were also served undercooked slice of pizza and after I discreetly contacted them through social media, without apologizing they stated they were very generous with the sauce today that's why it's wet, which is not true it was raw gooey dough for 7 quid. I wouldn't take a refund, but it really pissed me off from their customer service point of view telling me it's cooked when I attached a picture or raw focaccia. Came today 8:35 and they were already sold out which is little silly to be honest. The queuing itself would be ok timewise, but you are made to spend 25mins next to stinky bins while people behind you are elbowing you and stepping on your heels to have a look at the menu. Maybe put one on the extension as well, it's incredibly uncomfortable queue experience. Unfortunately because of the shop layout, people just stand in the doors and block you from exiting after you paid, which just wastes everybody's time but it's a people problem not the bakery's. Has been getting the walnut bun for the past year as a staple and had one today as well, it has shrunk a good 20-25% in size. Not sure what's going on and it's unfortunate. (Also, you add the menu on Thursday for the weekend, which is already gone from your story on Friday like 4pm)

We went early on a Saturday morning and the queue was already forming but only a few people in front. We had time to decide our order. We asked what were the most popular and we took those as well as the classics we wanted any way. We grabbed a coffees elsewhere as they only serve filter here and decided to eat the pastries at the park. The pain au chocolate was really good and had that dark chocolate which cuts through the buttery pastry - I’d go back for that. The morning bun was nice enough but the coffee flavour wasn’t strong enough for us. And the pistachio and raspberry was also ok but found it underwhelming although I liked how they ensured there are whole pistachios in the paste. The service was great and although they are busy from opening they really spent time answering our questions and making the experience enjoyable. Maybe I’ll go back for the Pain au chocolate and try their cinnamon buns?!

We arrived at Eric’s and saw the Q :-( but definitely worth the wait. We bought a selection of cakes and pastries. The hot cross bun was still warm and I devoured it within minutes, licking my fingers afterwards, got to be the best hot cross I’ve ever tasted. The cheese swirl smell and taste just as good. The sausage roll costs £6.50 ! Not cheap….but so deliciously good :-). The almond croissants and cinnamon bun will have to wait for tomorrow. To conclude, Eric’s is a bit expensive but the quality is worth the price.

The queue is daunting but it's absolutely worth the wait! We tried two types of bread and a handful of different pastries and everything was absolutely delightful. I really hope that at some point they will expand/be open more days so that we don't have to queue so long to have these lovely treats. Nonetheless, I will definitely be back to try more things on the menu!

I spent 50£+ happily I got the white sourdough the only downside about it that they didn’t slice it, the cookies was the best I’ve ever had in London from the chocolate to the texture really GOOD HIGHLY RECOMMEND however the millionaire bar was really disappointing it’s the caramel for me I felt that the sugar wasn’t melted properly and the biscuits was dry no buttery taste at all. The pain au chocolat was the BEST I EVER HAD IN MY LIFE! The flakiness was phenomenal! The cinnamon bun was 9.7 walnut morning bun was 10/10 incredible! Pear danish was really top tier 9.8 raspberry tart was meh not my type but good 7 pumpkin fennel was good but I didn’t like it alone so I ate the next morning with poached egg on top it was the best breakfast I’ve had crazy combo reminds me of an omelette in Juliet’s quality food you should definitely try, ALL IN ALL REALLY NICE PLACES EMPLOYEE KIND AND HELPFUL. Note I know it’s expensive but definitely worth it every penny cuz this really above what I had in Penninsula hotel! “So you get what you pay for” I’m from the central so I woke up 6 by 7:40 I was there I got in second in line it really dose get busy there so if you want to avoid it simply arrive earlier. I really hope this bakery grow and be more successful with huge chain 🙏🏻

An early rise and walk over to Milk Run was worth it. Especially on a sunny Saturday morning to get in line before most, and all the park runners. The Selection of immaculately presented pastries 🥐🥮 was good, through a couple more savoury options would have been welcomed ( only two today ) However they do have a daily menu with awesome sounding/looking toasted sandwiches on there. Pastries 🥮: 9/10 Coffee ☕️ : 7/10 🙃the beans used top quality, just could have been a touch hotter, but that was probably down to the glass it’s served in.

Great coffee and amazing pastries! The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and the staff were friendly and attentive. A perfect spot to start the day. I’ll definitely be back. 👍👍

One of the best bakeries in London hands down!! Their pastries are so delicious and creative and the coffee is great! We go every time we are in the area, cannot recommend it enough 💛

I only has a pastry but dang that was good. Everything looked absolutely banging. I had the tiramisu danish and it didn’t disappoint. They sell a croissant loaf which looked dreamy. I now have to come back to try their selection of sandos.

We try to go to Milk Run at least once a week for our weekly loaf of sourdough and some pastries and we are never disappointed!! All the pasties are so well done and there is always a new surprise on the counter to try.

Tasted coffee, pain Au chocolat, and came back to try more. Everyone is welcoming and the atmosphere is 👌

As a milk brunch fan I was so happy when I know that they open a bakery and finally try it today. We had burrata cherry tomatoes pastry’s, lemon bun, cake slice and cookies and all were delicious. Coffee was good as in their other branch.

Not highly recommended. The place itself is pleasant and spacious for dining in, and the pastries and sandwiches look very appealing, but unfortunately, they’re not very tasty. Although we arrived at 9 a.m. and therefore expected everything to be fresh, the avocado sandwich and cinnamon pastry felt like they had just come out of the fridge. The banana bread also felt stale. On the other hand, the cheese and salami toast was fairly tasty, and the coffee was good. Bottom line: the place is decent, but next time we’ll probably choose somewhere else.

Came here for breakfast (twice). They have a wide variety of sweet or savoury pastries. In addition to that, they also have a variety of drinks, matcha, and juices. The staff here are also efficient, fast and friendly. They will approach to take your orders

I really wanted to hate it, but it was better than expected....though not "good". Sure, the pastrami roll had pastrami in such small quantities that I had to make sure it wasnt an illusion. The pickles picked it up like a rescue helicopter. The cinnamon bun may habe had enough sugar to cause an instant coma. But the cinnamon was haughty and it went down in a gulp. The coffee looked well made too. The wifi was great and the bathrooms quite clean. Yes, its pricey. You can do better. You can do worse.

I really like here. Often come to study. Only one negative thing, their hot chocolate is worst. Even lovely barista made it for me again. It just taste like hot water, colour is light brown like coffee ( I got confused and asked twice what is it). Probably they use already mixed chocolate liquid to make it. Terrible 😞 come here but never get hot chocolate!

I’ve always enjoyed the consistently high quality of food at Ole & Steen and this visit was no different in that regard. However, the service was shockingly bad. The person who took my order, the barista, and even the staff cleaning tables were all incredibly rude. There was yelling behind the counter, things being slammed around loudly, and a general attitude of hostility toward customers. It created a very uncomfortable atmosphere, completely at odds with what you’d expect from a place known for quality. Great food but the service at this location was a complete mess. Disappointing and unprofessional.

Absolutely loved our visit to Ole and Steen. The food was delicious (I highly recommend their salmon and cream cheese sidedish). The Earl Grey tea was perfectly brewed and just what we needed for a proper tea time experience. The atmosphere is genuinely lovely: calm and peaceful with chilled background music at just the right volume. It never felt crowded, which made for a truly relaxing visit. The seating is comfortable throughout, and with the upstairs area gives you plenty of space options. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming from start to finish. Best of all: You escape the Piccadilly Circus tourist chaos, yet it's still conveniently located and well-populated enough to feel vibrant. Exactly the kind of place you want for a quality tea break away from the crowds. Highly recommended!

Ole & Steen is a Danish bakery that is a worthwhile place to visit if you are in London. It offers the opportunity to sample a wide variety of different breads and pastries. The selection is quite extensive, featuring numerous types of bread, including rye bread, various buns, sweet treats, toasties, rolls, cream cakes, and loaves, amongst other pastries. This makes it a good spot for exploring different baked goods. They also have specific menu items available only in the morning, so arriving earlier in the day is recommended if you wish to try these. The coffee here is also good. I particularly enjoyed the dishes I ordered which featured poached eggs with either bacon or salmon; these paired very well with the coffee and provided a satisfying and substantial start to the day.

Amazing food. We had baked eggs with streaky bacon with toast soldiers. It was so good. No lactose free milk though. Oat or soy only.

Had a great time today at Gail’s Soho. A big shout out to Meyse and Yasim for their exceptional hospitality. I spilt my coffee and Meyse immediately helped me clean and offered a new one. They had smiling faces and were courteous and welcoming. Would love to visit again and recommend to others too.

Probably one of the best bakeries in London, been here everyday on my trip, food is fab, especially the apple custard pie, the almond chocolate rich croissant and most of them all the Babka. A must try dough with chocolate. Water in a can, like the idea😆😇😇

Great range of lovely looking sweet and savoury food. Only a few inside seats and I was lucky to get one. Staff friendly. Great place to stop for a drink. I bought one of their little bags of biscuits - ancient grains and vanilla shortbread which were very good. Tea serves in a pot with a nice cup

This is our second time visiting London and renting an apartment just above this wonderful bakery, and it’s one of the reasons we love coming back. Our children adore going down in the morning to pick up the freshest, most delicious scones for breakfast. There’s also a great selection of sandwiches, salads, chia puddings and other treats. We really love this bakery chain — always fresh, friendly and consistently excellent!

I love gail's, the quality of the food is amazing and the staff is always very kind. If you are in London, do not miss the opportunity to visit Gail's!

I went out of my way to visit as id seen some good reviews. They were a bit limited and what they did have wasn't exciting me in terms of cake. I did get what looked like a cinnamon bun in a mushroom shape and with chocolate in. It was dry . Barely any chocolate. It was a disappointment. Some of the savoury food looked lovely. No steps to get in. Some seating available. Near Oxford street. I don't think I'd try again
