Bacon and maple, mushroom danish, cheese and marmite pastries
Stephen L.

Nice little cafe in Islington offering coffee drinks and pastries. They also have a few more brunch-like pastries too. The bacon and maple swirl was my favorite, as the pastry was very soft, the maple added just the right amount of sweetness, and despite the bacon, it still felt pretty light. The mushroom danish was pretty good too if you're looking for something more on the savory side. I also got another pastry with cheese and marmite, which wasn't my favorite, but that was mainly just because I'm not a big fan of marmite. Each of these was around 6 GBP, which seemed fairly priced considering the quality and portion size of each pastry. The cafe has a handful of tables inside and outside, although it does get quite busy at peak hours. The staff are friendly and bring the food to your table if you're dining in. They also have free tap water available in the fridge for you to bring to your table (with cups). The place has a cozy, lively vibe inside. Overall, I think Pophams is a good choice for a quick and casual coffee, pastry, or even brunch if you're looking for something on the lighter side.

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.

This is one of those reviews when I'm like: do I have sufficient data points to accurately review…read moreSweet? I mean, I've only been there for v. specific things. But heck, yeah, I have thoughts and I will now share them: So...I've never had any of the savoury options here, even though the triplet of women (i.e., 3 women, not *actual triplets*) behind me all went for the soup. Perfect PR plants or indicator that I should return for lunch? Probz latter. Double shout-outs for the flatbread (ish) pizza which looked DELISH, as well as the prepped sammiches. I am a big fan of the service here; I know I write about it a lot in my Yelp reviews, but how warm / welcome I feel going in to a place is a biggie for me. I was asked 3x if I was being served, and it wasn't pushy it was just a warm and kind of "we know it's midday on a weekday and we want to make sure you're taken care of" vibe. Appreciated. I just ran out of my much-loved go-to Monmouth, and was pleased to discover that Sweet not only makes coffee but sells beans (WIN!). 6 GBP for 250g. later, and I'm set for the rest of the week. What I really want to call out is the slices of deeeeeelishus cake and their macarons. They are perfectly crisp with a little bit of softness in the middle (like they should be, gang!) and the fillings are simple and uncomplicated but great complements. So, full flavoured vanilla, raspberry, pistachio, chocolate, coffee. Yelp note: yeah, I'm gonna say it again: really like the people, really like the vibe, really like all that I've tried (so far). Spoons up in favour of Sweet!

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.
