Ask a German living outside of Germany what they miss the most about home and I guarantee you that…read morethey will almost always mention the bread. I do not have such strong ties to German bread, but my time in Berlin has taught me how to appreciate a good pretzel (with butter if necessary, not mustard, you heathen!). Bäkehaus isn't quite as gemütlich (or cozy) as your favorite neighborhood bakery in Germany since it's all self-service, but it gets the job done. The pretzels were soft and chewy and surprisingly enough, reasonably priced! Bäkehaus also offers loaves of rye bread and a plethora of sandwiches with a German twist (I spotted a pork schnitzel sandwich with cranberry sauce on ciabatta for £3.99!), so why not grab something here for lunch instead of opting for a pricey sandwich from Pret or a sad sandwich from Tesco? It's located on the high street just minutes away from the Tube station, so you really don't have an excuse.

The 2 gals with me were ready to turn back. They were sure I was just marching them to nowhere. Oh, but the tunes (and attitudes) certainly changed once the glorious display cases were spotted. We picked our breakfast items & coffees, then bought more items to stuff in our pockets/bags for later. Pocket bread, as we so lovingly referred to it, was second breakfast & lunch. A glorious stop. The coffee was thick, creamy, and silky smooth. The quiche sang on the tastebuds. Light, fltaky-tender croissants & moist, savory scones - absolutely divine.

It is great to be greated and served with a smile. Inside the cafe, it was very cold making it difficult to enjoy a light lunch. As I am typing this now, my fingers are frozen. It makes it difficult to eat while fully bundled up. My food was OK. Nothing spectacular. I had the cucumber, egg, avocado and bean salad. It was fresh but a tad bit messy do to the avocado. My mixed berry tea was very very yummy! And lastly the pain au chocolat was average, have had better. In all fairness, I did live to one of the best patisserie's in Paris so my standards are pretty high. They are now cleaning and have left the door open... Seriously!?!?!? It is 2 degrees outside.... Sigh.... Will I return, probably but not until the summer.
