Nordic Bakery - Golden Square W1

The Nordic Bakery was another recommendation from my friend Rob - he was raving about their cinnamon buns but also how crucial it was to time your visit so they were freshly baked.  I think they're pretty fine at any time but he's right - if you get them straight out of the oven they are amazing.  I also like their sandwiches - lovely dark rye bread and also kinds funky looking (funky in the positive way not the American way).  I particularly like the circular ham and cheese sandwich - tasty and quirky.  Their coffee is OK too - but if I were you I'd get a take-away coffee from Fernandez & Wells in Beak Street and then wander on down to the Nordic Bakery for a cinnamon roll.  If it's a nice day, sit in Golden Square and contemplate how the combination of quality caffeine and something sweet can make life feel pretty darn good...

  2. I agree Rob - thanks for introducing me to cinnamon buns! (BTW - is it just me or does it feel like cinnamon should have one "n" and two "m"s instead of the other way round??)
