What to Order
Kouign Amann
A caramelized, buttery, flaky pastry, often described as a cross between a croissant and a palmier, with a soft, moist interior.
"Their kouign‑amann is pure bliss — crispy, buttery layers that practically melt on your tongue."
Sergei Kouzminov
Canelé
A small French pastry with a soft, custardy interior and a dark, caramelized crust, often flavored with vanilla and rum.
"The outside is caramelized to perfection, achieving a slightly nutty and maillard taste while the interior is, yet again, moist and packs a vanilla-custard flavour punch."
Bredgy L.
Sticky Toffee Pudding
A rich, moist sponge cake made with dates, served warm with a sweet toffee sauce.
"This was my first time coming here irl... My friends and I also came this past weekend specifically for the sticky toffee pudding. I normally would never order this bc it sounds sickly sweet, but it was absolutely perfect."
Kristin
Carrot Cake
A classic spiced cake made with carrots, often topped with a rich cream cheese frosting.
"The carrot cake is to die for."
Nimrah Baba
Sausage Roll
A savory pastry featuring a seasoned sausage filling wrapped in flaky pastry, often served with a dipping sauce.
"The sausage has bits of jalapeño and cheddar... and the pastry is flaky and crisp. On top of that, they provide a brown butter mayo dip that I could probably just eat out the container lol."
Kristin
Cinnamon Roll
A sweet rolled pastry filled with cinnamon and sugar, often topped with a glaze or frosting.
"Cinnamon roll was amazing and so was the hot chocolate, asked for it extra hot. Delicious."
