KURO Bakery

Located at 95 Notting Hill Gate, KURO Bakery is a recent but significant addition to the London bakery scene.

This bakery sticks to the traditional recipes, providing an array of well-executed pain au raisin, pecan swirls, pain au chocolat, plain, and almond croissants. It's an excellent spot for both the pastry and the ambiance, making it perfect for a solo outing or a casual date.

Sourdough Sophia

Tucked away in North London, Sourdough Sophia is a gem that has gained a loyal following. This bakery, with its pastel pink façade and wooden interior, offers a cozy and inviting atmosphere. Their commitment to using flour from sustainable, regenerative farming practices sets them apart, and their croissants are a testament to their dedication to quality. Arriving early is recommended to ensure you get the full range of their delicious offerings.

Pavilion Bakehouse

Although Pavilion has multiple locations, its presence in North West London makes it a notable mention. Pavilion is known for its innovative and delicious pastries, including the almond pain au chocolat. This croissant boasts a crispy exterior with a thick almond paste crust and a rich, nutty chocolate-almond filling. It's a unique twist on the classic that is sure to impress.

For those seeking the ultimate croissant experience, these bakeries in North West London are a must-visit. However, if you prefer the convenience of having these artisanal treats delivered right to your doorstep, consider using Butter & Crust, a premium baked goods delivery service that partners with top-tier bakeries to bring you the best of London's baking scene.
