This place is conveniently located near the bus stop to Kenwood House. We ordered the parmesan chicken on a cream bun and the smoked salmon bagel, and both were delicious.Recommended dishesBagel, Chicken Sandwich
This is a super atmospheric cafe, it's very much a study-in-a-coffee-shop kind of vibe! It's got a really nice view from the window where you can see everything going on outside. It's often busy since it's located close to a couple of schools, but it's a great place to go to on the weekends, in my experience. The food is great, but super expensive! I don't go regularly, but sometimes will get a nice cinnamon bun which I highly recommend ;
Can you see the plastic that’s not being cut properly from the matrix machine??? Well from all the coffee shops I’ve been in London / Gail’s Bakery is the only one that presents the cheapest plastic lids ever with a danger of their client potentially swallow a plastic bits while they drink coffee that’s known to be of the top brands in London. Well next time I will personally approach the management and will blow this problem until it’s resolved!!!! You can’t sell food and coffee at quite expensive prices and trying to save money from a coffee lid potentially putting people’s life in danger!!! Take some action and sort it out immediately!!!
Want admit that hot chocolate real good one just if new guy whir work there do it. Otherwise hot chocolate like a water with no taste. My suggestion add more chocolate and do it how new guy do it. Thanks!
Went to get lunch there today and it was laptop city! Several people on their laptops and no space for someone just wanting to eat or a coffee. One person was spread out with her laptop, coat and chargers over 3 chairs. Needs to be managed better with some rules in place. I have never seen anything like it in any other neighbourhood cafes.
Great staff, atmosphere and area such a nice place to dine in but can be busy on the weekends but defo worth the wait for the almond chocolate croissant and mushroom quiche which is what I normally get to takeaway. I noticed outside is a lil doggy bowl with water to keep pups hydrated Food: 5/5
We came in a few weeks ago, and a lady snatched my boyfriends phone off the table, luckily he was able to run after her and get it back. Went we went up to the girls that worked there to let them know what happend and warn them to maybe keep an eye out for the lady, they apologized to the people in the queue for the "drama". Not even to us, which I thought was a weird reaction. Didn't even ask us if everything was ok.
Delicious food lovely atmosphere. The only downside is the lack of vegan.... or at least dairy free options. The tomato soup was delicious, but tepid, but there was no microwave on site. Bagels and cakes.... yum! Dietary restrictions: Very little diary free.when we worked out that the soup and sourdough was dairy free, we were given a pat of butter to accompany.... strange!
Coffee was actually quite good - best of the chain coffees in terms of taste. Lots of veggie options for food. Make sure you specify what size coffee you want to avoid automatically being given a large.Food: 4/5
I advise anyone with food allergies/intolerances to steer clear of Gails. Their staff are not trained in this issue and nor is the food clearly labelled. They seem to be oblivious to the risk this poses to some customers. Today I asked the server which savoury foods in the counter were vegan. He said the avocado roll and the quiche. I bought the quiche as a take away but after a few bites it became clear that there were eggs and cheese in it. I feel unwell now. For me this is not life-threatening; for others it may be. How hard is it to train your staff adequately?
