Best Cake Places in Ealing

"When Chin Chin first opened their first place in a former condom shop (yes, really) in Camden their crazy take on making ice cream with liquid nitrogen may have been pre-Instagram but it was still an almost instant sensation. The thing is that it's not just a party trick, the ice cream they make here really does taste smoother because there are no ice crystals. They've also used their USP to devise a clever way of chilling ice cream down to a level that it can actually be sent by post."

"Don’t go to Chin Chin Labs for your average cake and cookie because ‘simple’ really isn’t in their vocabulary. They are most famous for their ice-cream made with liquid nitrogen but what a lot of people don’t know is they make and bake a whole load of cakes, cookies and pies downstairs in their in-house bakery. Find things like their naughty titty cakes, party cakes and hot cherry pies."

"The ice cream pioneers behind Chin Chin Labs have expanded its epicurean empire. The Chin Chin Club in Soho opens this month as a revolutionary cake and ice cream club. On the menu are deluxe sundaes, choux buns, and cookies with molten centres."

"Restaurants Bakeries Belgravia. Looking pretty in pink, this cute candy-floss emporium from patisserie queen and cake designer extraordinaire Peggy Porschen is an absolute wow – whether you’re purchasing some of her outrageously elaborate confections from the posh boutique or sitting down for cake and a cuppa in her self-styled parlour. There aren’t many tables, so be prepared to wait for your chosen treat – perhaps ‘glorious Victoria’ sponge, dark chocolate truffle cake or something seasonal such as the Easter-themed ‘speckled nest vanilla cloud’ topped with mini chocolate eggs."

"Possibly the original Instagram cafe, this place has become Insta-famous, renowned for its epic floral displays and fabulous cupcakes. The popularity of Peggy Porschen has even led to them opening a second cafe on King’s Road in Chelsea. Not only is this adorable pink cafe absolute Instagram heaven, Peggy Porschen cakes and coffee are also delicious."

"Can there be anything lovelier, on a sunny summer's day, than sitting at a pavement table outside Peggy Porschen's pretty pink and white parlour on Ebury Street, with a classic red-velvet cupcake in one hand and a glass of chilled champagne in the other?"

"German-born baker Gerhard Jenne has baked for the likes of Tina Turner and the Rolling Stones. At his London bakery Konditor & Cook, you can get stuck into his superb Mittel-European influenced creations. Celebrating its 25th anniversary this year, you can now find six dotted across the capital, serving up a range of treats from deliciously indulgent brownies to a jaw-dropping, best-selling Curly Whirly cake, which features a Belgian chocolate centre, lavishly coated in cream cheese and vanilla bean frosting."

"Celebrating 25 years of moist bakes, Konditor & Cook is one of London’s most beloved cake shop chains. Providing not only rich, delicious cakes that are baked using the finest natural ingredients, Konditor & Cook offers a range of indulgent brownies, decedent tarts and delightfully naughty biscuits. Celebrity endorsed and as fun as it is mouth-watering, this should be on everyone’s culinary bucket list."

"Established in Waterloo in 1993, Konditor & Cook now have a legendary status in London as the makers of delicious, beautiful cakes using only the finest natural ingredients. For your work party, try one of the sharing platters or tray bakes. The peach and raspberry crumble looks amazing and is perfect for summer gatherings – if I was at your work do, you’d have to fight me for it."

"The go-to destination for those looking for some tasty plant-based pancakes, Megan's serve up their signature dish of vegan pancakes with chia yoghurt, maple syrup and pistachios for Shrove Tuesday. Known for their Insta'-ready interiors and pup-friendly policy, the London-wide restaurants are perfect for a mid-morning munch."

"There is nothing even slightly fancy or instagrammable about The Brownie Box. The Earl’s Court location on Old Brompton Road is right next to a bus stop and the tables outside are noisy and liberally fumigated with auto exhaust. The tables inside are old fashioned and formica topped, the floor linoleum."

"Potli is a wonderful sit-down restaurant that excels at Indian short eats and flavourful dishes designed for sharing with your closest chums. You’d be rude not to come for a blowout lunch or dinner at this Hammersmith local but it’s the dessert at Potli – which means “little bag of gold” – that might just be its most valuable asset. The paan ice cream, which gets its distinct colour and flavour from betel leaf, is one of the best versions of that refreshing, herbal-y dessert you’ll find in London."

"It’s no wonder that Frankie and Benny’s is one of the most popular places to eat in Wembley Park – they serve up your favourite Italian American classics at a reasonable price. Your little ones will love their cod goujons, cheesy tomato pizza, and crispy chicken breast nuggets. With options on their kids’ menus for big eaters, small eaters, and babies, they have parents covered."

"Frankie & Benny’s is known for classic Italian American dishes and diner favourites, as well as an extensive kids’ menu sure to please the little ones. Tuck into cheesy chicken parmigiana, an ultimate mixed grill, or a vegan Margherita pizza, with outdoor dining and table service to keep everyone safe. No reservation required."

"Adam Handling is the name of one of the best new restaurants in London and the acclaimed chef who conceives its modern British menus. Those include breakfast, lunch, a la carte and..."

"It turns out The Ritz is not only a place for adults, children are welcome too. Enjoy the beautiful interior of one of London's most prestigious hotels alongside your children, but be prepared to pay a bot more for your meal- it is The Ritz after all. Reviews say: "Beautiful surroundings, efficient and charming service and imaginative food perfectly cooked."

"John Williams' Michelin-starred cooking is great any time, but we can't think of a more beautiful spot for a lunch than overlooking the gardens at The Ritz. If you're after something a little more casual, head to the hotel's Secret Garden bar where they serve up club sandwiches alongside caviar and champagne."

"We really could’ve included The Ritz anywhere in this article, with it being iconic in so many ways. Historic and traditional, great for tourists and celeb-spotting, not to mention Michelin starred. A right old British stalwart and just a must for Afternoon Tea."

"This hotel is located in central London, and one of its most infamous attractions is “The Lanesborough Suite” which can be all yours for a night at the price of £18000!. Other than exclusivity, the suite will also bring you access to a complementary concierge service and a Rolls Royce to drive around in. Its restaurant — Apsleys, a Heinz Beck Restaurant — is famous for having received a Michelin Star within five months of opening, thus establishing a world record."

"Smack dab opposite Hyde Park is the grand neoclassical Lanesborough, which, thanks to its stately good looks, has been used often as a stand-in for Buckingham Palace. Today it’s about as close as you can get to feeling like a royal without being born one. Interiors by designer Alberto Pinto recall 18th-century Regency style (which continues into the ultra-plush guestrooms) and fresh flowers are everywhere."
