Nordic Bakery, London

The ladies of Nordic Bakery

Visiting London but seeking a little Scandinavian comfort? Well in the heart of SoHo (Golden Square) is a little gem you won't want to miss. Strong on design (look at the way those aprons match the wall colors exactly), service and authentic ingredients, this little space has become a big hit.

Cinnamon rolls and rye crispbreads and karelian pies, they've got them all and the local Finnish community is loving it. It's always so cool whenever one travels to seek out cultures within the culture and one of the things that makes London one of our favorite world class cities is the richness of its international tapestry. And the quality of everything is always so consistently great.

Finland is the world's largest consumer of coffee per capita and they love it black and strong. Wherever we go we always seek out the coolest and most interesting coffee shops. This qualifies. So, if you can't get to Scandinavia just yet but you are in London, check out the next best thing.
