Back in June, we made a quick weekend trip to London to see Beyoncé (who was predictably excellent) and fill out bellies with some good vegan food. I’m still always delighted by the prevalence of vegan options in the UK. There are great options in Prague, but you do have to go looking for them. In London, every eatery we walked past seemed to have something vegan – and there was even a fully vegan bakery just a ten minute walk from our hotel, so we headed there for a tasty breakfast one morning and got two pastries each.

Dr HH got a citrus pistachio swirl, which he loved. It was soft on the inside with good crispiness on the outside. There was plenty of good flavour from the cream. It was sticky, messy, and delicious.

He also got a pesto and cheese bun, which had good textures and a pleasing amount of cheese, but very little pesto. Perhaps he was just unlucky though.

I got a chocolate hazelnut swirl, which was as big a success as the pistachio one. There was plenty of tasty chocolate hazelnut spread, which was very decadent.

And I also tried an intriguingly-named morning bun. Like the others, it was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. It was filled with delicious flavours of cinnamon, cardamom, and orange zest.

We also got a takeaway coffee and hot chocolate (very rich and delicious – a bit much on top of two pastries!) and these were also good.

There’s no seating inside so we ate everything on one of the handful of seats they have outside the shop, as the June weather was favourable. It would be a nice little cafe if there was space for indoor seating, but as it is, it’s an excellent bakery and I hope we’ll be back for more delicious pastries soon!
