Bacon & maple croissant
Vivian Z.

Great bakery in Islington! There are a few seats inside but the majority is outdoor seating on benches, which is lovely when the weather is nice. There's a standard menu and also some weekend specials that change. The staff are friendly and though there is often a queue due to this being a popular spot, it moves quickly. I had the bacon & maple croissant and it was delicious! The pastry itself was buttery and flaky, and the sweetness of the maple complemented the savoriness of the bacon very well.

Best bakery in the area. The pastries are absolutely delicious, coffee is yummy, area is cute and a bit away from the noisy high street. It does get super busy on weekends so I'd be careful about that. Still delish but there'll be a line and you might not get a proper spot if you want to sit. But especially on weekday mornings when it's not as crazy, Pophams is a joy!

Ham and cheese croissant, rhubarb pastry
Christine Y.

The most delightfullll pastries. Better than any of the croissants I had in Paris. Ham and cheese croissant is wonderful. Massive queues on weekends so beware!

I wasn't expecting to be disappointed considering this place has been recommended by many friends. I decided to order a pastry on a Saturday afternoon. The place was completely packed to an uncomfortable level. I waited while for my Pain au Chocolat, and when I got home and opened it up from the bag to eat it, I discovered it was severely burnt...and stale, too. It's sad, as I was hoping to add this into my rotation of regular spots in Islington.

Sweet Boulangerie & Patisserie is a simple bake shop along the Exmouth Market. I stopped in for a…read morecanelé and quite enjoyed it--it was fluffy and custardy with a great caramel-vanilla flavor. Check out the shop if you're hankering for a sweet baked treat, too.

Today I decide to take in Sweet, a boulangerie & patisserie in Exmouth Market. I have walked past…read moreSweet for at least a year and often admired the pastries, but just never had the time to go in. Today I made the time. When I entered Sweet I was greeted by the staff and quickly took in a few silver tables and several wooden tables with stools. I ordered a goat cheese pastry puff and cappuccino. I was a bit annoyed that rather than ring me up, allow me to sit down and bring me my cappuccino, I was made to stand and wait until my drink order was finished. As I sat down, there was a mini rush. I was glad to have a seat because Sweet wasn't meant to hold a large crowd. The goat cheese puff was good; with each bit I could taste the goat cheese, meaning there was lots of goat cheese, yummy. The puff also had large tomatoes and a bit of basil, which added a nice flavor. The crust was light and flaky and I am sure I would have enjoyed the puff even more if it had been served warm. The cappuccino was also very good, but had a bit too much foam and not enough liquid for my taste. I like just a bit of foam and lots of liquid, next time I will request it that way. Overall Sweet was not bad, I would visit again, but doubt that I'd make it my regular boulangerie.

Cinnamon Bun: A lot more strands than a typical cinnamon bun. Not as gooey, but had it's own unique flaky texture going on. Cardamom Bun: Very unique. Not sure I've ever had anything like this. Instead of the standard cinnamon, they had warming cardamom. Found this really delicious. Carrot Cake: A comfort standard. Lots of great creamy frosting. And nicely spiced cake. Chocolate Globe: A bit dense. Heavy on the coconut and heavy on the chocolate.

Came to Arome after hearing lots of great things online and it did not disappoint! My only regret…read moreis I wish I had more people with me or I wish I was hungrier cuz I really wanted to order ALLLL the pastries! My husband and I decided to try for a table and we ended up waiting about 45 min - 1 hour to sit. There was a super short line for to-go pastries (and sometimes there was no line), so if you're pressed for time, definitely do that! I love how the Arome workers help move the line along and help people in line find tables. Also speaking of Arome, the AROMA was fantastic! It smelled to buttery and fantastic both inside and while waiting in line. I ended up trying: the iconic Honey Butter Toast, Black Sesame Mochi Cookie, and Almond and Chocolate Croissant, a Savory Croissant (I think Sausage and Cheese), a Chai, and a Matcha. Everything was SO GOOD. All the pastries were amazing. I'm glad we got a mix of sweet and savory things. Everything we had was buttery, flaky, intentional, and made with love. What you'll like the most will depend on your personal flavor preferences! Definitely give this place a try!

Arome produced pastries both beautiful and divine!…read more On the recommendation of friends, we made a stop by here for a Monday breakfast. According to their website, they deliver "European excellence with Asian flair" which is really a great way to describe their pastries and the experience! Definitely the quality that you would expect with some of those Asian flavors. Here is what we tried: Chocolate Pistachio Escargot (5/5): Shaped in a snail shell, in between the flaky layers of pastry were luscious chocolate sprinkled with pistachio for nutty texture. Really enjoyed this one! Honey Butter Toast (4/5): Touted as their signature, I had high expectations for this. It is exactly as described which that slightly sweetness from the honey in a perfectly toasted milk bread. I did enjoy this a lot but also felt like it would benefit by having something else for texture or contrast. Chicken Butter Croissant (4/5): The croissant had the nice flaky layer with chewy interior. I loved the savory chicken sausage with the slightly sweet soy glaze that provided nice contrast and that Asian twist. When we got there a little after opening, there was no line but all the seats were taken as the place is quite limited on seats. While we were asked to wait for a little a bit outside, we did not have to wait too long. However, the line did end up getting longer as we were leaving and some ended up eating outside. Overall, if you are interested in tasting some tasty pastries, I would recommend Arome!
