Reviews of Yeast Bakery

E. S. P.

A really lovely experience at Yeast Bakery. I visited on a Saturday afternoon after exploring the market in the area. The atmosphere was so nice: loved the decor and wonderful plants 🌿🌱🌵. I treated myself with a creamy cappuccino and a fresh (still warm!) almond croissant 🥐. Staff was incredibly polite! Thank you so much! I'll be back and recommend when around Hackney Wick!

G. O. T.

Absolutely amazing!!! Space & atmosphere: Lots of seating, indoor and outdoor, free wifi (they allow laptops), and clean open space! Nice chill music too Staff: friendly, inviting, and professional! Food &d drink: my pear/raspberry danish was really tasty (the right amount of sweet) and lots of lamination! Coffee was nice too :) Will definitely be back- I wanna try their kouign aman and chocolate croissant!!

lovely location by the canal, with welcoming and friendly service. we had one almond croissant and one toasted sourdough bread with marmalade for breakfast. the dough of the pastry was excellent, very flaky, but something was off with the cream (way too runny, you needed a spoon to eat it). the toasted bread was again excellent, but the marmalade not enough to even lightly cover one slice. we asked for two long black but were served two americano (i guess our fault since they do not have long black listed in their coffee menu, but could have said?). prices exceptionally high (~15 GBP for the above). overall good, but with room for improvement.

M. C.

First visit to Yeast Bakery. Overlooks the canal with some seating outside. Inside, it is very spacious with a wide selection of pastries, freshly baked on the premises, and they are delicious. The coffee is by Climpson and Son (my favourite) and tastes smooth. Plenty of seating inside. Compares with other coffee/bakeries in the area price wise. The service was good, polite and friendly staff. I will be back.

K. D.

Great spot to catch up with someone for a coffee as the place is very nice to sit inside! The pastries are very good, such a big choice of both sweet and savory options. Staff is very friendly as well :)

N. M.

New Location for the best bakery of Lond Fields and entire Hackney!!! I must admit that I loved that underground like feeling of the previous place, but know you can seat in a cosy and modern designed place just in front of the canal, or you can enjoy mouth-watering delicatessens (even salty once) just in front of the canal onto comfy chairs. I’m loving to stay there, over ordering as usual (then take away), with a cappuccino and a book in these sunny summer day enjoying this post lockdown! I know this quietness won't last much.. So, hurry up!

a. r.

It’s a nice bakery over looking the canal with plenty of sunlight in the morning hours. The flat white is good. Although the baguette is good, it’s definitely too over priced. Like 3 bucks for a baguette is ripping one off. Quality wise it’s good though, so if you are super rich fancy person, get their baguette or just save money to go to France and eat better and cheaper ones 😉 Staff is friendly and the product is always fresh. Good spot to hang out but definitely not a place to buy your everyday coffee or bread or baguette, too expensive even from Broadway market standards.

b.

great selection of pastries. raspberry and custard brioche feuilletée was my favorite, the custard cream and raspberry filling hits the perfect spot. brioche buns weren’t noteworthy, I’d go for the sweets.

R. M.

Brilliant family run business. Seats with view over the kitchen. Hands down top ten in London! Favourite pastry is the Kouign-amann "a Breton cake, described in the New York Times as the fattiest pastry in all of Europe."

A. R.

Visited yesterday for the first time. I would call it an elite cafe/bakery. It felt like I travelled in time and I am in Copenhagen or New York. Amazing. I like the eco friendly coffee cups and everything really. Coffee was delicious and croissant crispy - yum. I love the idea of little ceramic mugs being sold there and bags. You can also see a bit of the back where staff are baking. Very charming place and hopefully see you next month when I am again on Sheep Lane.

T. L.

Wow, what amazing French pastries, croissants, cakes and more. We tried the super cute Brioche Feuilletée which is a tall brioche cake with a sweet filling inside plus a wonderful topping. If you are in the area on Saturday you can visit Broadway Market and eat some street food. Then head to Yeast Bakery for coffee and a cake. Situated inside a railway arch, there are benches outside so it's lovely to sit there in the summer. Buy a baguette to take home later. Enjoy!

C. F.

The best pastries I've ever eaten! Lovely staff, nice seating and generally a relaxing, low key vibe.

I. E.

Best bakery in London. This is not hyperbole. There is no one that does croissants better.

G. S. W.

One of my favourite places for pastries in London. Full list on my blog "Gone Sun Where".

N. P.

Discovered this little gem after my meal at CookDaily across the road. All the pastries look to perfection. Ended up with a pistachio and praline brioche. It was delicious not too sweet. Word of warning: this place only accepts card payment. Enjoy :-)

M. H.

The staff are warm, welcoming and helpful. The interiors are easy on the eyes and outdoor seating a plus. But £5.60 for a sliced white sourdough loaf hurt my soul. It was delicious and still warm. But is ANY loaf of bread £5.60-delicious? Looking forward to when national wages catch up with inflation.

R. M.

Tidy and modern interior, seems to be a nice place to sit down and relax. The pastries are varied but the cinnamon bun I had wasn't anything that special, neither was the coffee. Overall a little expensive for what you get, but pleasant enough otherwise

C. B.

There is a separate wheelchair accessible entrance which is kept locked & is to the side of the building. Without a handy customer inside who spotted me like a lost kitten at a door and alerted the staff, it would have been impossible to get in. Once I was in, tables had to be moved and I had to send an able bodied friend to queue, as the accessible door puts you as far from the main door queue as possible. To get out, again the door was locked and we had to wait for a staff member to get another staff member. I had seriously grumbled at the owners shortly before my visit, via a direct message on Instagram, as I'd visited and couldn't see the accessible door, as it isn't sign posted and is around the side of the building. So I had given them a very angry cross message & they were therefore aware that cake and coffee starved grumpy wheelchair users had their eye on this place. There is an outside table area, but I think you have to order inside. The area is up on a platform/ steps. Coffee cups hard to hold as they don't have handles. Pretty but impractical for some disabilities/ hot black coffee drinkers. Croissants & pain au chocolate absolutely bloody marvellous.

Y. S.

All the pastries look fantastic and taste great here. Crisp and soft pastry layers. Great flavour and very reasonably priced.

P.

Great spot. Sandwiches and soups are delicious, as are the pastries. Kind and helpful staff (family-run). Decor is modern and green.

F. B.

Very delicious. Sadly prices on the beyond ridiculous end of the spectrum 😅 Think it was £4.65 for a Pastry with raspberries that’s the size of a molecule

A. S. I.

A great visit for those passing by London Fields. The selection of kouign amann flavours is the best I've ever seen in the world (and in fact the first people I've seen experimenting with flavouring them). I tried the caramelised pineapple - I wanted more! Delicious.

P. G.

Amazing smells of freshly baked bread while serving quality coffee. Well done to the owner and to the personnel for keeping it real!

A. U.

I never tried so delicious and different pastry and desserts. Moving out from Hackney I miss this place a lot. It was so good and I can't find something as good as this in my new.

B. L.

Verdict - would return: delicious pasties Liked - brioche feuilleteé Disliked - the prices Other comments - the brioche feuileteé sells out quickly!

R. C.

All the pastries look fantastic here. We got a kouign amann and it was brilliant. Crisp and soft pastry layers. Great flavour and very reasonably priced

R. G.

Easily the best pizza I’ve ever eaten. Also delicious coffee. What a find.

A. T.

Decent pastries at decent prices. The Kouign-Amann and Brioche Feuilletée were good but lacked the crispiness to take it to the next level. Pophams is still the one to beat. Malted sourdough was very fragrant and will be back to buy another.

n.

One of my favourite bakeries in London!!

G. B.

Nice place to visit. Good croissant and cappuccino to taste. Little crowds, but it is part the job.

H. R.

First time trying these French pastries, I had the brownie there and it was delicious.

N. H.

This place is a bakery out of a dream! Every single pastry of theirs is a wonder! Highly recommend

C. S.

The absolute coolest bakery! Prepare for a satisfactory shock to the taste buds.

Y. C.

Nice buttery, caramelized pastry! A bit pricey. Note they only take card payment.

J. M.

Lovely atmosphere and staff, tucked away next to the canal with delicious baked goods

W. S.

Best place in Hackney - we love the whole family - thank you all for always being so welcoming 🥰

E. d. W.

This bakery is by far the best bakery in London!! I never ever eat cheese sticks anywhere else anymore either. Ben is the pastry master par excellence! Now that they have tables and chairs outside you can hang out there and watch while they bake. Apparently they're open on Fridays now too.

N. K.

I would give six stars if I could. Lovely family run bakery, with beautiful breads, cakes and pastries. Super friendly staff - I’ll be back!

G. E.

Kougin Amann of all kinds of flavors! Only open on Saturdays so plan accordingly.

O. E.

Incredible bakery in super cool vibes. Every pastry was flawless

A.

We got the hazelnut brownie. Too much hazelnut to chew on and the brownie is dry

É. M.

Delicious coffee and pastries, welcoming place. I come here every Saturday 😊

S. P.

Great coffee, good space, delicious pastries and cute dogs guaranteed

M. U. C.

Excellent pastry and friendly staff. Unfortunately, the flavours of the pastries only apply to the decoration rather than the filling. It is also a shame that they only use disposable cups for their coffee.

E. P.

Fantastic bakery. Silky, delicious coffee. A must go!

A. R.

Overpriced but good. Funny location and everything is made right there in the building.

Q. C.

Good pastry and reasonable quality sourdough. Sadly in Hackney where you can find an artisan bakery almost every corner, Yeast Baker's sourdough is far less tasty than others. Perhaps the most delicious thing is the pastey-bun

H. P.

This place is fantastic. I am always in search of the best bakery spots and this place does not disappoint! The pastries are fresh and flaky, coffee is smooth and delicious. Highly recommend

K. M.

This is a secret gem in North-East London. They do amazing pastries, especially Kouign-Amann 😍 It was my first time trying and I love it 😋 Heard their croissants are amazing as well so gonna try them out next time 😁 Bear in mind they only open their bakery to the public on Saturdays

E. P.

The place is fantastic, I make sure to come here every time I visit London Fields. The creme brûlée kouign amann is my absolute favourite!

D. W.

Awesome vegan pastries and French bread.

J. M.

Yeast serves the best croissant-style baked goods you can find. From the basic croissant to filled, vertical brioche feuilletée to different flavoured kouign amann (a true rarity) to the novelty croaf (croissant loaf), every single one is as good as they get, flaky, flavoursome, and full of butter. You won't find better in Paris. Get your Dominique Ansel fix here at half the price.

J. C.

The chocolate croaf (a chocolate croissant loaf) is wonderful and makes my daughter's weekend. And the staff are lovely!

D. W.

Absolutely amazing, love coming here on Saturdays when they are open to the public. Their kouign-ammans are probably the best made pastry I've ever had! Will not disappoint.

N. A.

Yeast has become my "go to" place for bread and pastries. Absolutely fantastic tasting food and lovely, freindly people running it.

b. r.

For my opinion this place produce the best pastries in London. Don’t wait until you will be in the area of this bakery... just go there! Amazing place!

J. C.

Best place for croissants and other French pastries and bread in London. The chocolate briochefeuiletée is insanely good and a must-try. ❤

S. C.

small bakery where you can find really good artisan bread, you can also find a good selection of croissants and various desserts accompanied by a good coffee.

S. L.

Simply the best croissant, pain au chocolat, and brioche feuilletée in London...probably the UK. Hell, it's better than most bakeries in Paris!

R. T.

Big up da coldest bakery in London. Independent family run business real O.G. business you love to see it🤩😩.

P. A.

Go to place for Kouign-amann in East London. The other pastries (especially the Hackney bun) are great too!

G. W.

Friendly service, delicious croissants

A. H.

The kouign amann is so good I came back 3 days in a row. Addictive. Genius pastry making

É. R.

Best pain au chocolat in London!

A. S. K.

Absolutely the best bakery under the Sun! We're already missing you (since we moved), Yeast!

W. N.

Croaf is the signature in there. Tried the almond and cinnamon croaf which was fluffy and light, a very nice french pastry shop.

B. C.

One of the best bakeries in town. Do not miss out on the Kouignamann, they are just mind blowing.

D. M.

By far the best bakery in London. Forget dominic ansel and st johns. This will give you a special moment in yoir life.

A. V.

In the tumultuous world of today, the Yeast kouign amann provides a sacred moment of joy and sweetness. Thank you for this life changing pastry!

A. R.

Such a great place they make something that is called a Kroaf and it is soooo good !! If you want one go early on Saturday because they go fast.

K. L.

The best pastries I’ve had outside France. Lovely place.

C. H.

Crème brûlée kouign-amann was incredible, could easily eat 20 of them!

C. W.

Gorgeous Bakery near London Fields! Recently renovated, looking beautiful and serving coffee!

J. H.

The manager took my order directly and gave her personal opinion on what I should have which was really great and made me feel valued as a customer

A.

possibly the best pastry/croissant in London, open to public from a garage near Netil market on Saturdays.

(Translated) Purchased a cinnamon roll like food at Saturday Breakfast. Although I visited at 9:00 in the morning, there were things called Saturdays, but customers were scary. Many people take a take away and I hope they can eat in the outside Eat in if the weather is nice. I also bought croissants, but it is crispy and delicious. We also sell drinks such as latte and american. I bought three and cost about £ 8. However, because it is credit-only, cash can not be used. So it is four stars. It is near from the bus stop, so if you are on Saturday you are doing a market so nearby so maybe you can just call on here. Next time I want to buy baguettes. (Original) Saturday Breakfast でシナモンロールのようなフードを購入。朝9:00に来店したけれども、土曜日ということもあってかお客さんがチラホラいました。Take awayする人も多く、天気が良ければ外のEat inで食べてもいいななあ。クロワッサンも買いましたがサクサクで美味しい。ラテやアメリカーノなどのドリンクも販売しています。3つ買って£8くらい。しかし、クレジットオンリーなので現金は使用出来ません。なので星4つです。バス停からも近く土曜日なら近くでマーケットもやっているのでその前にココで腹ごしらえしてもいいかも。次はバゲットとか買いたいなあ。

(Translated) It's far from the tourist area, but it's worth eating! Bread is mainly pastry products. The kouign amann, which is relatively rare in Taiwan, has many flavors and is very delicious! (Original) 離觀光區比較遠 但相當值得一吃！麵包都以酥皮製品為主，台灣比較少見的kouign amann 有很多口味，非常好吃！

(Translated) It's too bad to open Saturday only. The Queen Aman is a must try here! The pastry is pretty visual but creamy in a pretzel. The staff is so lovely and friendly. (Original) 토요일만 여는게 너무 아쉬운 빵집. 여기 퀸 아망은 정말 꼭 먹어봐야함! 페스츄리는 비쥬얼은 예쁜데 꽈배기에 크림채워놓은 맛. 직원들 너무 사랑스럽고 친절.

(Translated) A bakery located under the iron on the ground. The shop mainly sells puff pastry bread. The most eye-catching is a whole row of Kouign Amann French Caramel Butter Shortbread. You can choose from the sinful delicacy of dough + butter🧈 + sugar. (Original) 位在地上鐵下方的麵包店，店裡主要販售酥皮類的麵包。最吸睛是是一整排的 Kouign Amann 法式焦糖奶油酥可以選擇，麵團+黃油🧈+糖 製成的罪惡美食

(Translated) splendor. I came over to drink Climson's coffee, but I accidentally heard it, but the croissants and pies were completely delicious. Highly recommended. (Original) 훌륭함. 클림슨손스 커피 마시러 왔다가 우연히 들렸으나 완전 맛있는 크라상과 파이들. 강력추천.
