Fabrique Bakery in Hackney

Nothing vegan to see or find here anymore and they only accept card payments... Great display and very expensive. Shame this bakery/patisserie does not give a customer options.

This is not a baker it’s a coffee shop that does filled rolls and cookies. Don’t look here for baking because they won’t know what you mean.

Bought some semlor for a friend as dessert and gift when I was invited to their home. I was left embarrassed the bun was stale and cream old???? How can you sell goods like this?

The place is nice, apart from the uncomfortable seat on the 7m long bench (nothing serious but it can be improved) what is unacceptable is that where you eat or sell food it is so dirty, if the cobwebs or dust on all the lighting they are not removed sooner or later they fall into the food! Glasses dirty internally..... There is a lot to improve!

I literally couldn’t find Fabrique when I visited Stockholm recently so was really pleased to visit one of the London shops. Delicious cinnamon bun, biscuit and pastry tart, excellent quality. Prices about average for this type of bakery. Service was great. There’s a few tables outside. Another excellent bakery in London, recommend!

I tried this interesting looking bakery/café to buy bread. I could live on bread, but certainly not on theirs: the taste and texture is good but underdone, but worse it is extremely salty.

The best cardamom buns you’ll ever have! Every time we go to London we always stop for one of these. They are to die for!!!!

For the second time the bread I bought was burned. I had to cut away these burned parts which can cause cancer. I want a refund for that

This is a friendly little place, more bakery than café, but they have four small table for customers who want to eat in. The trappings of bakery is everywhere, with sacks of flour, racks of trays and ovens. Since the café at the nearby Museum of the Home is closed, this Scandinavian bakery/café is a good alternative.

We visited the bakery to have a catch up with work colleagues. When I entered the store I was not greeted by the blond girl behind the counter. I asked if I could sit down and she said go ahead, and not in the friendliest manner. There where dirty plates on the table which she didn't clear away until 10 mins later. When she did eventually clear the table, she didn't even wipe the table down. Her customer service was non existent to us, however we witnessed her serve other customers with a much friendlier attitude. I would not recommend this place or visit here again. The only good thing I can say about this place, was the brunette girl who served us just before we left had a brilliant, upbeat and positive attitude, which you would expect from someone working in customer service.

Half industrial and half trendy locale. I love their display and that they seem to bake on sight beneath the train tracks. However, very expensive. Had one chocolate cookie which was the only vegan option they do. Cannot believe nothing else is vegan. Some traditional Swedish baked goods available, but these guys are not on the vegan route yet. Also would not accept cash, which is a shame that they do not offer the option to customers. Very friendly staff!

These were the best pastries I've ever tried hands down. I have eaten plenty in my time but these stand alone. The way the baker brought out all the different elements of the spices was incredible. The balance of flavours in each pastry was incredible. Simple yet complex. Incredible coffee, rich roast, yet somehow light and very easy to drink. Best Latte yet. The atmosphere is cosy and humble, each table had a beautiful candle and fresh flowers. A hidden gem.

This bakery was recommended by local. It was definitely a great choice for having my morning coffee and a variety of cinnamon buns (and not only). I visited the bakery at Hoxton. In it, you could see the whole area of bread and pastries production. Clean and friendly environment. Tasty pastries!

We visited Fabrique based on reviews and had cinnamon buns and tea. The cinnamon buns were very tasty. The reason for the 4 stars is that it is quite pricey for what it is. The cinnamon buns were £4 each which is a little on the high side. Tea was also the same price as some of the coffee at £3 which seems very overpriced. The tea also came with a hair on the mug.

We were in Seven Dials very early one Saturday morning, when the streets are quiet and most businesses are still closed. But Fabrique was open, and its cardamom bun was a delicious way to start a day of early exploring. Pleasant and welcoming staff member. A small and tempting selection of pastries. Yum!

I went by chance in this bakery coffee shop and my gosh I never payed £4.50 for a medium size saffron super sweet bun! And with a single nothing special espresso. The total £7.50. And their breads OMG never seen something of such a basic necessity costing like a piece of gold! I mean coming from Italy and Spain where in terms of great artisanal bakery/coffee shops we have so many, but you will never spend £ 7.50 for a bun and an espresso people will through the espresso and bun back to you. It is a disgrace charging this amount of money! Obviously as in London when people go for a pastry and coffee that s what they are used to pay and seems normality! But it s crazy crazy crazy if you think. I wish them well business wise but they will def not see me back again.

Fik 3 snurrer til deling 5 mennesker, det var bare en lille snack, 1 med kardemomme, 1 med safran og 1 med kanel. Vi fik kaffe og vand. Sød ung pige der betjente is, hyggeligt at sidde i den lille butik.

Best bakery in the world! We’ve visited Fabrique in Stockholm, NYC, and here in London. The baked goods are absolutely wonderful in both flavor and texture. Coffee drinks are also delicious. Do not miss the cardamom buns!

We heard about the great cinnamon buns and came to try them out. They were really good, with a cup of coffee it was the exact stop we needed!

So glad we walked past this bakery, lovely welcome, great coffee and a really lovely tasty vanilla bun. We bought bread and a cardamon bun to takeaway. Love it.

The most amazing cinnamon buns I have ever tried!!! The most amazing cardamon buns i have ever tried!!! I will spread the word of the master craftsmanship of this bakery all over LONDON!! Let none leave this world without having tried one!! Peace and love.

Way too sweet, had to throw away my cinnamon bun. Waste of money!!! Also I didn't find the taste really good... DISAPPOINTED!

The French stick is great, bought light and dark, amazing toasted. Not taking cash which is a disappointment.

Good cardamon bun. Decent ambience. No wifi, charge points or accepting amex displays a casual indifference to customer needs. Such indifference to customers, triggers an indifference to Fabrique for me.

I am a previous customer at Fabrique as I live Locally, but this visit was different. I make my own sourdough bread each week, but had accidentally got rid of my sourdough starter and needed more. I’d been told by another bakery that any established...

The display for the delicious pastry is what got me to this bakery. The nice glazed pastry and the small was something to die for . I ordered the zafran flavor based on the recommendation of the friendly staff. I still remember the taste and...

Very eye catching spot with lots of buns on the counter and they make very good buns if you are into dont miss it

Found this place on the blog Gastrogays a recommended spot for Scandinavian food in London. The bakery is a small and limited location but reminded me of the cafes I have visited in Sweden and Finland. I opted fora tuna baguette and cinnamon bun to...

This is a real taste of Sweden in London. Best cardamom buns around and fabulously strong coffee to go with it. We loved this place so much we went twice in 5 days! Small little bakery and usually busy so take it to go and...

The cardamom bun is rather good, just on the right side of sweet and sticky, but the service was the slowest I've ever experienced in my life - i was the third in the queue and waited for twenty-five minutes.

We were told about this small café by friends, visited thinking we'd take away but were lucky to get to sit. Had a bun each (nut, cardamon) and both were great. Coffee average but drinkable considering it's not their main game. Buns spectacular and service...

This bakery is a gold mine. They make the best bread in town and their cinnamon rolls are to die for. There is more than often a queue but that just shows how great their baked goods are!

Located in the main road of portobello market. Authentic classic decoration having a very tasty bread and nice sandwiches. Although they are not looking so tasty but really they are just try it and also the bakeries with cynamon... the service was friendly.

Freshly made on the premises. Kinda hipster-ish without being pretentious. We wouldn't have found this place without being tipped off by our Airbnb host - and so glad we were! Not the cheapest of places but you get quality and taste for your money here....

The bread loafs are a little overpriced, but the overall experience is worth it. The cinnamon buns are to die for!

It was so disappointing to get to the Hoxton branch at 17.50 and be told they were closed - according to the website, they close and 18.00. I’d rushed there in the hope of getting my mitts on a cardamom bun and left empty handed....

Called in briefly for a coffee and a bun on the way to the station. There are only a few seats inside, but plenty of room early morning. The coffee was lovely, but the buns, both cinnamon and walnut were something special. Whilst you could...

Fabrique is a lovely little cafe, the coffee is good, and the staff friendly but what you really should visit for is the cinnamon (or cardamon) buns, which are so tasty.

I popped into Fabrique Bakery while exploring around the area and I'm so glad I did! I decided to purchase one of their cinnamon buns to try, but I wasn't too sure if I would like it because it wasn't the typical cinnamon bun that...

Came here after a friend recommended it. You're in for a sweet treat here. The cardamom buns are delicious and the coffee is great. I loved that I could watch the bakers make the pastries from scratch while sitting down for breakfast.

Fantastic place for a quick bite....I love their cinnamon buns 🤤 and their sandwiches. Lovely way to spend a Sunday morning

I was looking for the best cinnamon bun in London so i visited Fabrique ,it was tasty but not the best i have ever eat.The place is nice and cozy,we can have a coffee and a bun!The prices for the sandwiches were a little expensive.

Good news for all homesick Scandinavians the best kanele boller (cinnamon buns) of London can be enjoyed in this tiny 6 table location inside the toasty bakery. Cinnamon bun was on point, espresso had nice crema but a bit too smokey for my palate. Makes...

Upon coming in, we were greeted with the lovely sight of the beautiful bread and the annoyed stare of the lady behind the counter. She didn’t approach us to ask what we wanted and just continued to look gloomlily ahead. When we ordered the mild...

Warm and friendly. Naturally hip. Not a try hard. Delicious and freshly baked pan au chocolate and hot chocolate for £5. A fantastic find so close to the plastic chains of Oxford Street.

What an amazing bakery! Great coffee, fabulous friendly service, fresh flowers on the tables, candles burning, topped off with the most delicious cinnamon rolls and rye bread with a hint of caraway seed to die for, and all of this in a tiny space. Trying...

Delicious fresh bread, great hot chocolate and excellent customer service from friendly staff. Recommend highly

Really lovely sandwiches and pastries. Quite expensive but then you do get what you pay for. I thought the staff seemed lovely too

Fika is certainly a Swedish institution that I can get behind. I love a good coffee and a good pastry, and the Swedes do tend to do it best. Fabrique has been around for a while now, and led the initial expansion of Nordic bakeries/coffee...

Lovely cardamon buns and good coffee, ( and the few lunch options looked promising too). Delicious Scandinavian cookies as well!

A quiet place for an out of this world cardamom bun and cup of coffee. A handful of tables-but I didn’t have to wait. Most people seem to opt for takeaway. Many delicious looking other options (cinnamon buns, vanilla buns, loaves of bread).

Really good bread, huge and delicious sandwiches, delicious sweet buns, cinnamon, vanilla and cardamom. These are the things I have tried and are delicious. Only downside is that the coffee is not on at the same level as the baking goods. But hey there is...

I have recently bought the half-rye half-wheat sourdough breads and after a long search for that nostalgic childhood bread taste I have finally found something that is very close, nice dense, moist sourdough! Hands down own of the best i have tried in London

Well worth the journey. Tiny indoor cafe but plenty of seating out the front. Area is a big of a mess - it seems they are working on the Arches and also the Geffreye Museum is shut for 2 years. But don’t worry. The coffee...

Exactly what I needed after craving proper kanelbullar for 6 months. Everything was just so amazing, Swedish fika at it's best.

Located by the Geffrey Museum, this bakery is a must, especially the cardemon yeast cake. Maybe a little bit too sweet, but very very tasty.... The baking smells are something one cannot stand against without trying the tastes behind it...

poor service, nevevr a thank you or good bye. behind rhe counter munching and blasé service on a daily basis food quality is very good however.

The bakery is small but the bread is really especially the cardamom roll. Would be even better if they have a wider selection

Fabrique has an excellent selection of pastries to choose from compared to some of the nearby coffee shops in Covent garden. The cardamom and cinnamon buns were wonderful. I also loved the bottles of iced tea they have for purchase and the yogurt they sell...

Ok food, terrible service. The girl at the counter had the worst attitude I have ever experienced. Every time I asked about something she was looking at me like if I said something idiotic. For instance, I asked if it was possible to cut the...

It is a tinny coffee shop that can really surprise you. Besides a good coffee, you can have amazing cinnamon and cardamom buns.

it was so cosy and nice place to have quick coffee and a warm cardamom bun! will definitely go back to try more buns and enjoy their good coffee!

I adore Fabrique. A short walk from my house, this place is the perfect spot for a quick bite and coffee. Their cinnamon buns are the best, but honestly you can’t go wrong. I also love their sandwiches on homemade bread and hazelnut yogurt.

My husband took me here for a quick coffee and cake and it was an amazing choice! The place is industrial but also very warm and friendly in the same time. Girls are very helpful and explained what breads they have. Everything was super tasty!...

We bought two half baguette sandwiches (which are not served with any sides or heating up etc), two flat whites and a pot of yoghurt which came to £20.40. I think this was extortionate, even for London. We received no greeting or goodbye. One girl...

We love Fabrique (even if it is a chain in Scandinavia), it’s just round the corner from the wife’s fave clothes shop so we head in a lot (if we can get a seat that is – it’s often busy). The coffee is sublime and...

Nice little Swedish coffee shop in Covent Garden. Worth a visit for if only for the amazing cardamom buns which were simply delicious. Coffee wasn’t great in fact tepid and bitter but the buns more than made up for it. I would go back but...

Good food, horrible service. Prices a little too high for the service and tables offered to customers.

Amazing sourdough bread - we always go out of our way to buy a Mr or Mrs Toast. Highly recommend!!!!

Tucked away behind the Geffreye Museum this bakery is an absolute gem and well worth the small detour from the main road. Ok, this maybe doesn't look too promising, as it is mainly the location of their bakery -but do not be put off by...

Ever-so hip, but the cinnamon and vanilla rolls are outstanding, with good coffee too. A Swedish gem in East London.

Fantastic bakery, buns, bread,sandwich and coffee, all good. I don't usually have a sweet tooth but in this case I do make an exception. The Cardamon buns are spectacular...but so the cinammon...the vanilla...well everything really.

Lovely atmosphere in a railway arch under Hoxton station. The coffee was fab and the pastries (we had a cinnamon bun and a vanilla bun) were delicious. Will definitely be returning for more, and to try their rye bread.

I didn't know about Fabrique bakery before my visit, we were walking around in the area and thought of stopping by to get coffee and it was amazing, great coffee, yummy pastries and friendly staff so don't miss it if you are in London.

Fabrique is situated in one of the railway arches under Hoxton Overground station, just opposite the Geffrye Museum. Visited while on holiday in London and not disappointed, had a coffee with a cinnamon bun, absolutely delicious. It was quite an experience to be sitting at...

My partner and I stumbled across this cafe and I'm so glad we did! We had a chargrilled vegetable roll, a cardamon bun and a coffee. The staff were also very friendly. Great for a little stop off on your travels!

Great high quality bread, really good coffee and absolutely addictive cardamon buns. The coffee places/shops are in several places in London. It's my go to for a dark rye bread that stays fresh all week. Every time I'm going for bread I have to have...

The most delicious cinnamon and cardamom scrolls, perfect for a cold days in London! Would definitely recommend stopping in for a delicious treat!

After a week of looking for a decent coffee in London we came across Fabrique by chance with a three hungry kids and an urgent need for caffeine. All came out happy. Wonderful wonderful coffee and lovely bread and buns. Full flours, very smart use...

Cute bakery with a variety of fresh tasty options. I loved the cardamom bun with tea and milk Good value for what you pay

Called in on a Sunday morning for a light breakfast. Had a coffee and tried both the cinnamon and cardamom buns. Beautifully sweet and tasty. There are a few seats outside and it was nice to have a bit of calm away from the main...

Truly excellent bread, and at a reasonable price too. The pastries and sweet stuff also looked good, and the cafe is a simple yet lovely spot for a coffee.

Great cardamom rolls ! The baker really lives up to is reputation with authentic pastries and great service !!!

My daughter and I were in London in June and we enjoyed many fine meals. None outshines the wonderfully quaint morning breakfasts and latte at Fabrique. We had only a short few blocks from our hotel, but I would have been willing to take the...

My wife and I stopped in the Fabrique on Portobello Road to have a little breakfast, and we has been quite happy to have done it! The place is very nicely decorated, and the single young woman that was serving was doing whatever was possible...

Fab pastry especially DELICIOUS cinnamon buns and very tasty coffee! Fabulous range of freshly baked bread. Well worth a visit! Can't wait to go back again...

Forget about the cinnamon buns found in the chain cafes, they are just not the same! Fabrique has the best fresh cinnamon / cardamon buns and they are super authentic. Such a treat!

Really good place if you just want to buy your bread! Also really nice to spend an hour with friend or familly. Sitting at the terrace, enjoying ice tea or coffee with cake or pastry!

If there is any part of you that has even the remotest affection for cardamom bread, you must not put off experiencing this bakery. Usually filled with very happy patrons, worth squeezing a visit there into your day.

I don't go looking for Scandi food but when Fabrique opened I did make the detour to Covent Garden for their stone oven baked bread and bunds. Their cinnamon bun is heavy, dens and very tasty but it is the cardamom bun than makes me...

Very delicious pastries and good coffee. Best cortado I had in a while. We went for a second time the very next day, but the coffee machine was broken. Sampled some other pastries with tea and hot chocolate and they were very good, too.

We tried to go to this bakery to have a coffee yesterday at 6PM (the bakery shuts at 7PM). A very VERY rude lady, after having ignored us for 5 minutes finally bothered to say hello. Then we asked for a table and she said...

I love the bread these guys bake. I want to. It more than I can cope with, so much choice of different breads that I want. I love the enormous loaf that they make but luckily you can buy it cut to a third.

Part I think of a small chain of four shops in trendy localities offering French style stuff. I liked the cinnamon bun and would go again if in the neighbourhood.

Lovely little cafe, to quote my daughter best hot chocolate ever - made with real chocolate pieces (milk or dark). Coffee really nice too and cakes are lovely. Small but brilliant

Did I get a bad batch, or were these just too sweet? I have eaten amazing Swedish pastries both in Scandinavia and the Edinburgh institution Peter's Yard, I was disappointed to find that those I had at Fabrique paled in comparison. The bottom over the...

OMG, this place is amazing. Try the Cinnamon buns, to die for. We bought an Olive and Gruyere loaf which was absolutely delicious. Highly recommend.

Oh god l love this place, what a fabulous bakery. I picked up some amazing loaves of bread and a gorgeous cinnamon bun with coffee. Obviously all home made. You sit right in amongst the baking. Fab.

The cardamom buns are to die for! I walked into this bakery on a whim and my only regret is the number of calories I consumed during the rest of my London stay due to Cardamom Bun Addiction.

Highly recommend this place for delicious bread. Also a nice atmosphere year round in the small cafe area - really nice sandwiches, selection of cakes and coffees served. In the summer there is some seating outside. It's a great space inside one of the old...
