Yep, we all know that feeling, you must go in, unless you are keeping to a vigorous regime, which at the moment, I am not, hence, I was there last night. I do love a bagel and I have often paid Carmelli a visit, for breakfast, lunch and diner. There is a different bagel for every day of the month in there. I have actually heard that it is one of the most famous Jewsih bakeries in London. It definitely is busy throughout the whole day. I love it, its fresh, clean, and I am a regular!

For starters, this coffee shop bakery is so cute - picture floor to ceiling windows, a corner spot for great people watching and a stunning baked goods display. We ordered cappuccinos, along with a pistachio rose baked treat and sausage roll. The sausage roll was packed with great flavor and seasoned very well. There were so many other treats I wish we could have tried. Also, I appreciated how thorough and thoughtful they were in sharing ingredient lists for my oof allergy. Overall, a very tasty and memorable pit stop.

Some of the staff can be a bit short, but on the whole they're friendly enough. They've got tables now to make it a little more cafe style but there are some things (mostly beef related) that they don't allow to be eaten in store. Most of their pastries look good and the ones that I've tried are tasty if a little stodgy. Not being close to a tube station, I don't visit that often but if given the chance, they're one of the better bakeries out there.

Nice thing about this place is that they have a large variety of pastries and bread, as well as several big coolers with prepared sandwiches, egg salad, cream cheese, etc., and they don't run out of bread in the late afternoon like some bakeries. Wish I could pay with a car for transactions under 10 pounds though. I don't get why that's such a problem everywhere. I mean, ffs, just charge me the extra 20p for the transactions costs or whatever, don't make me waste 15 minutes of my time walking to a nearby ATM.

Lovely bakery in Hampstead Garden Suburb. We came here on a Saturday morning and the bakery/café…read morewas busy with locals from the surrounding area. What I really liked about this shop is that everyone seemed to know each other - people were greeted with names, a little gossip exchanged, etc. We sat down for a coffee, as we were waiting for the bathroom showroom across the street to open up. While we were sitting down, they stocked up the display cabinet with freshly baked doughnuts, that were filled with raspberry jam. They came in bite-size and big-size...we couldn't resist and ordered a couple. They were just delightful. (In Germany we call these "Berliner"). This is a really lovely find and I will definitely stop by next time I'm in the area. Mind you, it's not one of the now ever so popular fancy bakeries that open up all over London. This is a proper old-school bakery and I really appreciate this!

As a kosher establishment, catering to a very finite client base, you would think there would be some introspection on the value of customer service and preserving your client base.
