Aug 22, 2026"A small gem near High Street Kensington. It has a great selection of both desserts and savoury food. We tried the pistachio donut and another pistachio treat, both were absolutely delicious. I also had a cheese straw (no photo because I ate it in seconds!), and it was excellent. The staff were very friendly, and we found a table immediately. There’s a good number of seats inside, making it a comfortable spot to stop by. Highly recommend!"

Aug 21, 2026"Stumbled across this place after my walk around Holland Park. For a pastry shop that’s in London, let alone the Kensington district, everything is very affordable. Pastries are between £2.70-5+ each and drinks are around the same price as well. The reason why I rated this place 4/5 is because the food could be improved. I ordered the maritozzi, pistachio croissant and cappuccino. The croissant lacks the layers and butter taste. Other than that, everything else was good. Service-wise, the attentiveness of the staff could definitely be improved. Whilst they’re very friendly, they often don’t check on customers so customers end up going up to order food or to pay, even though we’re told to order/ pay at our table. Overall, it was a good experience and would come back to try their other pastries and desserts."

I have lived in Italy and travelled all around the world and this is some of the best pastry I have had and I'm so lucky I live close by so I can just pop in for breakfast. They roll out the most amazing cheesecakes and the most amazing maritozzo throughout the day and this morning I popped in for an apple Danish turnover, just beautifully caramelised and delicious. The layers are crunchy with a light powder of sugar dusting. This is gorgeous artisanal level pastry, better than what I had at Iginio Massari. They also have a great selection of Italian snacks, is where I go to refill my estathe and a good selection of Bianco mullino. Just perfect. Please don't ever move, I might cry."

Both were delicious, but the mozzarella and pesto one was the standout for me—the flavors were so fresh! I paired my meal with a double espresso, which was brewed to perfection. To top it all off, the staff were incredibly kind and welcoming. It’s a lovely spot with great food and even better service. Highly recommended!"
