Amazing cinnamon buns! If nobody told me, I wouldn't have even guessed they are vegan. They are moist, and crispy, and chewy, and cinnamon-y, all in the perfect way a cinnamon roll should be. It's hard enough to find them here, let alone a delicious vegan one.
I would guess they are one of their best sellers, and for obvious reasons. So, in order to try it, you will have to get there early. Once they sell out, that's it. I was lucky the first time. The second time, not so much, but it allowed me a chance to try the cardamon roll, which is just as good. Prices seem a little steep but then you have to think about the quality ingredients and the fact these are baked incredibly well, and vegan. It's worth it.
The cappuccino was good enough, but seemed odd that I was given a small take away cup when I said it was dining in, and the Portuguese ladies behind me ordered the exact same coffee order and got it in nice, large mugs. It sort of ruined the coffee as it cooled very quickly and lacked the care in making it that theirs had. I don't quite understand why I was not given the same.
The inside space can get very busy and crowded with people queuing up for their orders. The staff are quick and efficient, but it can feel a little chaotic. So, I guess it was a secret luck that I got a takeaway cup because I finished only half and then left. It just wasn't a particularly cosy or relaxing vibe with so many loud people crowding around everywhere. I can only imagine that it's even crazier in high season.
The staff were incredibly lovely. I definitely think it's worth a stop, even just to grab a loaf of bread...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreWe have been coming to this bakery (on our frequent visits to Lagos) for about 4 years and it used to be very good until sometime within the last year. During this time the quality and range of products has declined. But the worst aspect of this bakery now is the unfriendly woman who fronts the store. She has a very miserable face and cannot be bothered to smile or make an effort to be friendly to customers. This is very bad in a service business. There are other staff who are smiley and friendly, in my opinion she should leave the service to them. I don't want to go in and hand my hard earned money over to her. She also made my 8 year old granddaughter cry with her brusque and unfriendly manner. Mean and totally unnecessary, she only wanted to get some water. I do not recommend the coffee either, you will be better off going to Black and White for good coffee and very...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreSometimes (read: always) you want some good bread. And All Things Dough delivers on that need. Everything is sourdough from baguettes to large loaves to ciabatta and focaccia.
Everything in this place is delightful. The food. The service. Even the coffee.
sure, you could buy bread elsewhere made with industrialized man-engineered yeast that is built to turn wheat and water in to ābreadā in the fastest possible means no matter how dry, flat, or tasteless it is. OR you can buy real bread from people who know what theyāre doing.
If you nudge nudge wink wink and ask for the āspecialā there is always a delicious sweet roll or something as well.
