The Best Cake in London Bakeries for Birthdays, Celebration, and Desserts | Eater London

"Kiperfl started life as a small Austrian delicatessen near Smithfield in 2003, with the ambition to promote Austrian food culture in London. It quickly gained a reputation before finding a new, bigger home in Islington based on a Viennese coffeehouse, where the kitchen is open all day offering the full breadth of Austrian food and drink. Kipeferl’s most popular cake is, unsurprisingly, the Sachertorte. The queen of Austrian cakes, this dark, dignified, grown-up chocolate cake, painted and layered with apricot jam and glazed with a glossy ganache shell, exists in a realm apart from the two extremes of billowy buttercream frosted layer cakes or naked loaf cakes that dominate London’s modern cake baking scene. However kitsch, there is something enchanting about seeing a shiny sachertorte stood proud on an elevated glass cake stand, or the stark silhouette of a slice served on an elegant plate with a tiny cake fork and a big dollop of lightly whipped cream. Kipeferl’s restaurant and patisserie in Angel is open daily, and cakes are available for London and nationwide delivery." - Emma Louise Pudge

The Best Pancakes in London for Pancake Day / Shrove Tuesday 2022 | Eater London

"Austria’s Emperor Franz Joseph was partial to pancakes, which he liked chopped up, sprinkled with icing sugar and served with fruity bits. It’s tricky to find his Kaiserschmarren creation outside his homeland, but it’s on the menu at cosy Kipferl alongside raisins and apple compote. The menu and décor are Austrian themed, but stylishly so: less Sound of Music, more mid-century ski lodge." - Emma Hughes

Kipferl Review - Islington - London - The Infatuation

"A lot of Islingtonians come to Kipferl to soothe a hangover, and they’ve come to the right place. This hearty Austrian cooking is perfect for the fragile-headed—order the Bauernfruehstueck, the Austrian equivalent of a full English, and the Bergkäse omelette. The menus go right through to dinner, but for us, this is more of a daytime place. Jammed at weekends, it’s a good choice for a weekday lunch (daily soups are great) or afternoon break. Please eat cake with your kleiner brauner (Austria’s version of a flat white)." - Richard Ehrlich

Delicious food in a pleasant environment served by super friendly staff all at a very reasonable price. Authentic Austrian cuisine that took me back to touring the Alps! Thoroughly recommend.

Kipferl is my favourite place in London! I love Vienna, but can’t visit it as often as I’d like, so Kipferl is bringing Wien 🇦🇹 to me! The hosts are very friendly and caring and make you feel at home. I’m crazy about their Esterhazytorte, and I can tell from all my heart, that Kipferl has better Sacher Torte then any place I tried in Austria, including Sacher Hotel, sorry, but that’s the truth. My favourite is Wurst, especially Käsekrainer! But everything there will be delicious. It is like stepping through the portal and finding yourself in Austria. I come here on special occasions and I bring here all my friends, local and visiting. I’m also very happy that they sell lots of local Viennese treats that you can’t find anywhere else outside Austria.

We really enjoyed our dinner at Kipferl yesterday. We had booked a table for 4 in advance and were given the best seats in the restaurant which was a pleasure. The service was kind, attentive and quick. The food was absolutely delicious, and I was particularly impressed by their cake selection! We are looking forward to going back soon.

Really great food (we had the goulash and the schnitzel). The cakes are also outstanding. Our server was lovely, really knowledgable and enthusiastic. Will definitely return.

Lovely Austrian traditional food served at Kipferl with friendly attentive staff. Plenty of space and the decor keeping in with Austria makes you feel at home. 🇦🇹❤️😊

Went in a few times because I really fancied French Toast which they happen to serve. French toast was pretty good, thick bread, fresh fruit and clotted cream (I think anyway) served alongside with some powdered sugar and jams on the side. Didn’t try anything else however the menu looks good

This was my first experience with Austrian food, so I wasn't quite sure what to expect. It’s a cozy, small café-restaurant style spot in Camden Passage, just off Upper Street. The starter was a nice beetroot tris: quite flavorful and tangy, sprinkled with grated pistachios. The main, Tiroler Gröstl, was a mix of fried potatoes, beef, bacon, fresh leafy vegetables, and a fried egg. Unfortunately, the beef was quite dry and lacked flavor. For the side, I had a cold, tangy potato salad. I personally prefer fried or hot potatoes, so this wasn’t my cup of tea. To finish, I had a slice of chocolate cake and an almond tart for dessert. Both were quite dry and sugary. Their traditional Austrian beer was quite nice, though, and the male staff was friendly!
