If you don't live in Leiden, you need to petition them to open a branch wherever you live. We had a focaccia bagel and a plain Jane bagel. The former was extraordinary. It was something never imagined before. Imagine a hearty meal, but on a bagel. The cream cheese with chives was true to name. Also fresh and smoothly delicious. We bagged 2 bagels for next day's breakfast. The owner is friendly and loved sharing the story behind his bakery. We talked for so long that I had to get another coffee even though it was well past their closing time. The bagels are all made at the shop from fresh ingredients. It's a real bakery. They even have some cakes and desserts, if you so desire. The seating inside is cozy. The coffee good and strong. It is now one of my favorite stops in Leiden.

While researching from the United States custom birthday cake pastry shops in The Hague I found Perfect Pastry. I sent to Perfect Pastry an email inquiring about the possibility of making a custom birthday cake with a specific layered interior filling, and a custom inscription on the top of the cake, and a card. Nermina responded the very next day with detailed information and a price. Even with a nine hour time difference Nermina was extremely responsive, and detail-oriented. I was also able to request a specific two hour delivery window. The cake arrived at my in-laws' apartment exactly on time. The cake was visually beautiful, and the filling was exactly as I had requested. My wife and her family reported that it was one of the most delicious birthday cakes they had ever enjoyed! The cake was indeed perfect, and so was the experience in terms of inquiring, ordering and executing. Thanks to Nermina and Perfect Pastry for making an international order easy, successful and delicious! I highly recommend Perfect Pastry!

Which is a shame as it's not so good rival bakery around the corner will take any passing business. But I would recommend a visit.
