Bread Ahead South Kensington

I used to go to the Bread Ahead at Borough Market occasionally but this branch is close to where I have a regular appointment. I was pleased to find the food and customer service is just as good. The doughnuts here are at a premium price but delicious. They are always soft and well baked. All of the flavours are good but my personal favourites are Sea Salted Caramel and Velvet Chocolate. I also recommend the Blackcurrant Cheesecake, but I think it is a special so hurry if you want to try it. The customer service at this branch is also very good. All of the staff I have encountered have been friendly and very helpful if you ask questions. Please note that this particular location is takeaway only and there is no seating, although Hyde Park is not too far away if you do not mind walking.

To the sweet angel lady who just paid for my (very late) breakfast because i didn't have a physical card on me and the contactless way was malfunctioning, thank you soooo much! 🫶🏼I really enjoyed the pastry(: !! If this ever reaches you, thank you for your service queen, you've made my day!! (i sobbed a little)

Donuts 🥯🍩 which looks 5 , probably taste 3,5-4,0 and no more than. Good to take one or few just by the way, and no need to be visited especially for it.

The pizza was good, but the donuts and cookies were mediocre at best. For £4.95 per donut you'd expect it to be pretty amazing, especially when there are so many other bakeries near (South Kensington). We debated going to Bread Ahead (an unknown to us) or to Crosstown (I already knew they were good) and we took a chance. I would, however, go back for the pizza.

Needed a quick snack before getting on the tube early Saturday afternoon; had a pastrami sub and a salmon sub, devoured them both in minutes as the bread was super light and both were deli-shush. Lady serving was not overly friendly hence only 4 stars on service, the quality of the food however eclipsed that average experience. Would return for the great food.

We went in one day for the first time and the woman working at the counter sent us home with a free piece of pizza. I can’t do too much sugar so the chocolate and jam donuts are way too much for me but the vanilla custard donut is good. I can only take one bite so I don’t get over sugared but my children love them. The chocolate cream is thick like a chocolate pudding consistency if you are from the USA. Pudding in the UK does not mean the same thing. The staff at this location is always really nice. Pizza is fabulous.

I did have a pistachio croissant but devoured it before having chance to take a picture so it’s a good job I got a sausage roll chaser. Both were super tasty and I can see why this place had good reviews. Croissant had a pistachio and Nutella filling to go with the pistachio outer. Sausage roll pastry was nice and flaky while not being overly oily

It’s right next to the station. You cannot miss it. The same quality as the main London borough market location. Very friendly staff, but it’s more of a shop where you pick up and go. Lots of options and if the doughnut you want, you cannot see then please ask the staff because they’re usually making a fresh batch and/or they will just bring it out.
