We ordered take away from Deliveroo very good

The bagels are very decent and sourdough bread is Excellent! It is far, far better than the stuff labelled 'sourdough' in supermarkets and way, way better than Gail's. I recommend the wholemeal loaf. Service is always friendly and the coffee always good. The bakery opens early and so its convenient to nip out and get fresh bread for breakfast :)

This bakery is hidden in plain sight - and is a little gem in East Barnet Village. Everything is baked freshly on site, and their sourdough is as good as you will buy anywhere. A lot of commercial bakeries tend to undercook their bread to save time and money but the loaves here are well done and hence full of flavour and beautifully crispy. Time to pack away my dutch oven and throw out the starter. When I walked in today they were hand-piping the filling requested by a customer into some store baked doughnuts. I will be back.

I love the pastries and they are just the best coffee shop in barnet for the best oat latte.

Salt beef bagel, lovely bagel but doesn't really have any beef init, 1 very thin slice. Charge more if u need too but put a decent amount of salt beef in surely. Disappointing after reading reviews.

I love the food here, freshly baked delicious treats and great coffee. Seems like a lovely bakery with wonderful people.

Amazing paninis and donuts. 100% Recommended

A great addition to East Barnet village! The pastries, bagels and cakes are delicious and the team are always welcoming

East Barnet lost a bakery a few years ago, but gained a saviour, thank you. I have visited twice in one week, having only just realised what they deliver, apart from excellent bread. Great service, lovely people with winning smiles, and somewhere to sit for all refreshments beginning with 'c' etc. Nice smell, too.

The coffee was very tasty and the spinach-kopita pastry was very delicious.

I’m a regular here for a reason - it’s brilliant. Their salt beef bagels are delicious, and the blueberry cake is quite honestly the best cake I’ve ever had. It’s absolutely delicious! Great coffee and really friendly staff. So glad to have this fantastic bakery in the area.

Friendly staff and delicious bagels, cinnamon swirls, chai lattes and fresh smoothies. A delight to have in East Barnet Village. Thank you!

Friendly staff and good service, but I found their buns quite doughy, dry and dense. Interestingly, both the cinnamon buns and the brioch buns had the same texture. The brioch buns could do with a little more custard fruit topping to offset the dry and dense dough.

So happy to have a bakery that actually bake bread fresh in the premise everyday. Everything is so nice and fresh in the morning and love love love the plain donuts 😻

Awesome for both breads, brioches, and sandwiches (bagels/paninins). Really good value

Just ordered here and the food was excellent! Really enjoyed the salt beef bagel and cream cheese salmon one! Great size and amazing tasting bagel. Really worth the money for the quality we got. Will defo order again.

Largest and tastiest croissant I have ever had. My friend had a crusty olive bread. Both not expensive. What a lovely shop with great home made selection. Will go back soon

Lovely authentic bakery! A wonderful smell of freshly made pastries, brioche and bread as soon as you walk in with an equally amazing taste as soon as you take the first bite! Keep up the good work!

Tiny bakery with excellent savoury produce like sourdough loaves, bagels and Mediterranean Pie. They also have a variety of sticky buns if that’s your thing. The loaf cakes are so fresh and delicious. Hot drinks also available. Definitely worth a visit.

Really good bread and pastries 🥐

Only live round the corner but just discovered this place. Without doubt the best sourdough I’ve ever had, good range of cakes too. Highly recommended!

Well deserved 5 Stars. Ordered 2x salmon bagels. Thanks you

This is a friendly family run bakery. The owners are lovely. And the food is cooked/baked to the highest standards. The Greek specialities are delicious. The coffee is very good.

Excellent and fast service. Dog friendly. Great variety of food and drink.

Lovely little local bakery with great service 🥐 I've been in person previously and had a great experience, but more recently I've ordered on deliveroo and found the food to be exactly as I remember - Fresh, tasty and made with love :) Please don't come here without trying the marble cake. It's a real favourite of mine that seems to be more and more uncommon in other bakeries lately, so I love that I can still buy it here. In fact all the cakes are superb, moist and not too sweet. Also can't comment on this place without mentioning the really yummy bagels - definitely get one of those too!

Lovely staff, I ordered the halloumi and avocado bagel. The bagel Itself was lovely but the halloumi was barely grilled and the guac tasted like lemon squirted in mashed avocado.

I made a delivery order via Uber and unfortunately the bakery decided to put a wet salad base with my bagel on top and so it was soggy on arrival and the flavours of balsamic vinegar and oil imparted into my bagel. I like the idea they wanted to give me a free salad (I was not expecting it) but they should have kept it separate from my hot bagel which also made the salad warm. Also there was hardly any smashed avocado on my bagel which made it a bit rank and the poached egg was overcooked and not runny at all. They are clearly good at bakery goods as the desserts I got with my breakfast were nice, but can't get over my disappointment over the main.

Nice coffee buy none of the staff were wearing masks.
