About bakery cafés
A bakery café sits somewhere between a bakery and a coffee shop: the pastries, bread and cakes are baked in-house or nearby, and there are tables where you can eat them with good coffee while they are still warm. It is the format behind many of the UK's busiest independent bakeries, and it suits everything from a solo breakfast with a laptop to a slow Saturday brunch with friends.
What to order
- Croissant and flat white – The classic pairing and the quickest way to judge both the bakery and the barista.
- Cinnamon or cardamom bun – Sticky, fragrant and a staple of modern British bakery cafés.
- Eggs on sourdough toast – Simple brunch that shows off the house bread.
- Savoury pastry – Ham and cheese croissant, spinach and feta roll or a morning bun with bacon.
- Toasted focaccia sandwich – A hearty lunch on bread that was baked a few hours earlier.
