Slightly obsessed with this place for breakfast. You need to get the English muff with gluten free bread - it’s the best! They can’t guarantee there is no cross contamination with the breakfasts however they try their best to keep things separate and I have had this here about 5 times now and no symptoms after. One of the best breakfast places in London for sure!

I have had their chocolate ganache cookie about 4 times too and had no issues until the last time when I was ill after. I believe this is because the cookies and baked goods are all out on display in the same area and I reckon it might not have been handled correctly. I would proceed with caution if trying their baked goods up the front of the cafe. I will be letting the apple blue know and hopefully they can keep the gf items separate or covered!

Absolutely fantastic patisserie. The owner and chef is extremely mindful about coeliac clients - even though there is gluten in the kitchen, I've never had a reaction (and I'm extremely sensitive). I would suggest arriving early as the gluten free chocolate hazelnut cake has a tendency to sell out. However, there are usually macarons as well. No rice flour is used, which lends a very pleasant texture to the baked goods - no grittiness here! They recently started serving buckwheat pancakes for weekend brunch and they are lovely.
