The 30 Best Bakery cafe in London

“Didn't know this place existed until very recently. This is an out of the way Venue. It's based in a Beautiful and Tranquil Garden centre. Not the usual over priced TAT that most of these centres are renowned for. Really worth a visit if you're looking for Quality items and something different. Anyway back to the coffee shop. Fabulous Coffee and Hot Chocolate with a great selection of mouthwatering Cakes that I believe are home made. Such a relaxing place that I never knew existed and plenty of free parking. Next time you want a relaxing and Tranquil hour make the journey and call into this unique place at Woburn Hill you will not be disappointed believe me.”

“I've just had the chance to try one of the feta cheese "rogche" and I was actually quite surprised that it was way more delicious than the one I last tried back home. Very friendly and charming girls at the till, that make you feel like home atmosphere. The coffee tastes very delicious too and can highly recommend anyone to try the variety of all the delicious treats they have. Thank you, will definitely visit again. Greetings and keep up with the good stuff you have there.”

“This was honestly a six-star meal. Between the four of us, we had a chai latte, English breakfast tea, pistachio macaron, brownie, and a scoop of vanilla ice cream - all for less than £15. Since we were eating in, the macaron came with lovely cream and raspberry jam decorations underneath that went great with the macaron as well. The brownie was not bitter at all and the tea was fragrant but the highlight of our meal was the homemade vanilla ice cream, which was creamy, filled with vanilla seeds and honestly the best ice cream I’ve ever had. Overall, this was an amazing experience and even though this place has 4.9 stars on Google Maps, I still think it deserves a higher rating.”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Hidden Gem! The Grind is an absolute delight! Their hot chocolate is rich, creamy, and beautifully presented—easily the best I’ve had in a long time. The Turkish food is packed with authentic flavor, freshly made, and full of heart. Don’t even get me started on the homemade cakes—they’re just the right balance of indulgent and comforting. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the service is always friendly. Highly recommend if you’re after something a little special!”

“Nice cafe for meeting friends for coffee and bite to eat. Staff friendly and helpful. Ordered coffee at counter and then brought it to our table. Snack food was delicious. Limited choice but still very nice. Will defo go again:)”

“Our son had a football match nearby and we popped into this café — what a hidden gem. A few of us grabbed bacon rolls, coffees and pastries for the parents. Super friendly staff, great coffee, and really lovely pastries and sandwiches. We’ll definitely be back.”

“Best coffee in the Richmond/Sheen area! Not only that but they have an amazing Italian Deli attached. Owners are the most wonderfully welcoming people who really take the time to get to know their customers and make you feel so loved you can’t help but keep coming back. The closest I have come to an authentic Italian coffee house outside of Italy!”

“I love this soft play. Every time I visit, my son is so happy and relaxed. Very friendly staff and tasty food. Menu has a lot of different options and I will definitely try more of your dishes whenever I come. Convenient place to have coffee and food if you have toddlers and you want to entertain them while enjoying nice meals. They also have a kid’s menu so it definitely worths it a try.”

“Daniel’s Bake in Maida Vale is the kind of place that reminds you why great hospitality matters just as much as great food. From the moment I walked in, the staff set the tone—genuinely warm, attentive without being intrusive, and clearly proud of what they do. That welcome alone already elevated the experience. The food, however, is where Daniel’s Bake truly shines. Every bite felt thoughtfully prepared, with a clear focus on quality, balance, and flavour. Nothing felt rushed or careless; it was comfortingly indulgent yet refined, the sort of food that exceeds expectations rather than merely meeting them. What ties it all together is the atmosphere: relaxed, inviting, and quietly confident. It’s rare to find a place where the service, food, and overall experience align so seamlessly, but Daniel’s Bake manages it effortlessly. An outstanding visit from start to finish—this is a bakery worth going out of your way for, and one I’ll be returning to without hesitation.”

“I'm falling love with this cafe, great coffee and staff. Lovely and cute place.”

“I got 10days trip in UK. Even though that was not a long trip, I visited 3 times. Since all of the staffs and all of the Food&beverage are lovely. Coffee was amazing as well. Best Italian restaurant in London. I strongly recommend!”

“This board game cafe is always so pleasant to visit! It has a nice intimate feel with a very wide selection of games. My friends and I stayed for 3 hours and got drinks, each spending around £10. We didn’t try the food. They offer student and NHS discount. They gave two small toilets, but one of them doesn’t lock fully. Will come back!”

“Had an amazing experience at Jamz! The breakfast was fantastic, with great vegetarian options available. My cappuccino was delicious, and the meal was absolutely scrumptious. I also loved that the café is dog-friendly—this was my first time bringing a family dog to a café, and the staff made it such a welcoming and relaxing experience for both people and pets. The customer service was excellent, and I enjoyed it so much that I grabbed some bakery items to take home—they were just as good! I’ll definitely be visiting again. Highly recommend!”

“Superb nosh! Excellent Spanish omelette, just what the doctor ordered! Friendly guy taking the orders too.”

“Had amazing coffee! I usually don't like unflavored coffee because many stores burn or over brew their espresso. Not here! It was the smoothest latte I've had in a long time - with no add-ons! And he even went out of the way to make an iced drink for us, and made it well! Definitely recommend!”

“A lovely little cafe I came across as being new to the area and on maternity leave. The surrounding park is gorgeous and I often pit stop at Sassis for some iced coffee and a snack :) The owner, Wayne, was super accommodating for my little one’s first birthday and let us reserve a few tables for our family & friends. The staff were amazing, very friendly & helpful throughout the day! Food & drink, as always, was great too :) Definitely recommend this lovely little cafe to anyone, we’ll be back again soon!”

“This is my favourite place whilst working to pop in for a quality coffee and snack. The paninis are always good and their homemade quiches are the best I have had with huge portions too. It's a small independent cafe, the owner and staff are always happy to see you. I would much rather go here than a high street chain.”

“Great cafe! Best on Acre Lane, lovely wide variety on menu and really friendly staff. Coffee is top notch too!”

“This place is so gorgeous! Felt like we were in someone’s back garden, it is stunning. The food was delicious and the owner is great fun!”

“Can’t recommend enough, welcoming and friendly, feels like we’ve be coming here for years rather than just a few months. Vast menu selection and food is always cooked to perfection, nothing is too much trouble. Would definitely recommend”

“Welcoming and friendly staff. Accessible for disabled and very clean. Good menu and food was very enjoyable.”

“Great food, vegetarian options, fresh orange juice and amazing price.”

“This is a great place to pop to for coffee or have some breakfast/lunch. Lovely atmosphere, lovely staff and food is always brilliant. Highly recommend!”

“A hidden gem. Clean, lovely atmosphere and very friendly staff. Ordered two cooked breakfasts, delicious. Very reasonably priced and came with two huge mugs of good tea. Will definitely be back.”

“What a gem! Just found this cafe and I will be back. Such a friendly welcome, easy to park and fantastic homemade scones and some lovely looking breakfasts.”

“Lovely cafe with plenty of sitting and delicious food. We recently discovered this cafe and visiting almost every Saturday for brunch after our library rhyme time session with our little one. Staff is friendly and food is reasonably priced. Highly recommended this cafe in Woking. And this cafe is temporary closed from 2 March till September for renovations.”

“Fantastic warm And welcoming staff. Breakfast are great too but not if you are watching what you eat. Recommend alternative milks and avocado on toast to cater for health conscious people. Other than than a lovely place to have a full English with lovely female staff!!”

“Delectable!! So excited Ilze has opened a cafe here and lovely to see a talented local artisan chef making delicious fresh treats on our highstreet rather than the franchise chain shops we see so often now. I was delighted to receive and am devouring my macaron birthday cake - wow! ;P”

“We popped here for breakfast today and the lady working was very friendly and accommodating with my little boy. The breakfast was good and it was a nice and convenient place to be able to catch up with a friend whilst visiting the area”

“I adore this place. I'm not a person who goes out to cafes often, but their food is always so delicious for good price. People are always very sweet, love the atmosphere.”
