The 19 best bakeries and cake shops in London
"For something fresh and unique, we suggest trying one of Crosstown Doughnuts’ multiple locations. The bakery makes its doughnuts with rising sourdough bread and leans heavily towards fruit flavoring. Some of the options you can get there include Peach & Nectarine, Homemade Raspberry Jam, and Yuzu & Passionfruit."
"Soft and dense like cake, full of banana flavour – in the dough and icing – plus a filling of chunky cherry compote all the way round, Crosstown’s new banana cake doughnut is now an unmisseable part of the range."
"Vegan 'Peanut Butter and Blackcurrant Compote' from Crosstown Doughnuts. Crosstown Doughnuts in Marylebone. Crosstown Doughnuts' vegan 'Lime & Coconut' doughnut"
"Boasting an impressive selection of breads, rolls, pastries, cakes, and freshly made sandwiches, family-run Rinkoff Wholesale Bakery certainly knows its stuff. However, setting aside the traditional, its recent foray into the delicacy known as a ‘cronut,’ a cross between a croissant and a doughnut, has been met with enthusiasm. Titled the ‘crodough,’ Rinkoff’s take on this hybrid snack includes nine different flavours."
"Family run business, Rinkoff Bakery has been serving up delicious baked goods and sweet treats for over 100 years and their quality hasn’t faltered once. You can enjoy their special home baked treats from both of their stores, including their infamous Crodoughs, a fun take on the croissant and doughnut trend. Location: Jubilee Street & Vallance Roadwww.rinkoffbakery.co.uk"
"While lots of doughnut shops fry their products, Dum Dum Donutterie only bakes its delicious selection. Dum Dum offers its own take on the cronut, but with some far-out toppings, you won’t see anywhere else. The options at any of their three locations include the dulce de leche Peter Andre’s Yum Yum Dum Dum, the coconut-infused Croconut, and the super-popular Zebra with layered traditional and chocolate croissant dough."
"Introducing the 'Cro Nutella, Galaxy and Choc Berry' from @dumdumdoughnuts 🙌 – Find them in Unit 31 pic.twitter.com/cwwW0vlCWx. — BOXPARK SHOREDITCH (@boxpark) October 19, 2020. Location: Unit 31, Box Park, Shoreditch."
"If you love doughnuts, you need to try Longboys in BOXPARK Wembley. Their artisan finger doughnuts are a whole new player in the game, challenging the humble glazed ring, their menu is full of delicious flavour twists and perfect pastries, as well as soft-serve ice-cream. Their menu is always changing but one classic that remains is there Lemon Meringue Pie doughnut and we say try it!"

"Also owned by the Villa Bianca Group is Piccola Ristorante Pizzeria Napoletana in Hampstead. This Hampstead Italian restaurant still offers a nice dining experience but it is slightly more casual compared to the actual Villa Bianca restaurant as it has more of a traditional Italian Pizzeria feel to it. Well located on Heath Street just 1 minute from Hampstead Tube Station Piccola Ristorante Hampstead offers a large selection of Pizzas as you would expect, as well as Pasta dishes and many other delicious and fresh dishes so add this on your list of Italian Restaurants in Hampstead to visit!"
"If you’re a big fan of croissants, then the Pasty Parlour is a must for your Little Black Book. One of London’s best bakeries, everything is baked fresh on-site daily and their pastries are said to rival the originals from across the channel. 8 Piazza Walk, London E1 8FU; thepastryparlour.co.uk"
"This dog-friendly east London café is certainly one to add to your London vegan food roster. Not only is there a full vegan English breakfast, complete with crispy hash browns, roasted plum tomatoes and grilled sourdough dripping in creamy vegan butter, they also serve seriously generous portions, leaving even the hungriest of customers full. There’s far more than fry ups on offer, though: the spicy coconut ramen is a delightful winter warmer, served with silky tofu, shiitake mushrooms and thick udon noodles deliciously slurped up when drizzled in hot chilli oil."
"Neapolitan pizza is a mythical beast, the best of the best, but while other openings have kept to small, chic spots with ascetic menus, 50 Kalo, one of Naples’ finest, is bold, brash and welcoming. Sat in an entirely unsexy location by Trafalgar Square, the venue feels a bit naff, which makes the exceptional pizzas feel all the more like a secret just between you and them. What to expect: 50 Kalo has plenty of topping options, made with fresh ingredients including mozzarella from Campania and imported tomatoes."
"There are dozens of options for fantastic pizza in London, but if you’re looking for something truly memorable, indulge in authentic Neapolitan pizza at 50 Kalo. With only one other location in Naples (the birthplace of Neapolitan pizza), and one of our favorite pizzerias in Naples, you can expect authenticity and high quality here. There are several options on the menu, but we strongly recommend trying the traditional margherita."
"Morso is a homemade pasta restaurant off Abbey Road, with some pretty lovely pasta. You can find their new home delivery menu here and order ingredients, or their ready-cooked meals. We’d recommend their polenta chips, and the cacio e pepe."
