The 22 Best Bakeries In London - London - The Infatuation

"For: Gorgeous pastries and perfect banana bread The heavy wooden door at this Battersea bakery feels like a gateway into Narnia, only instead of a friendly faun on the other side, there’s an array of shiny pastries like spring onion and chive scrolls, and puffed-up pain au chocolats and croissants. The banana bread is the real standout here. Not to be mistaken for the sickly-sweet sesame praline banana bread, the classic is dense yet airy, and sweet without being too cakey." - rianne shlebak, sinead cranna, daisy meager, heidi lauth beasley
