Arôme Bakery - Mercer StreetB+

9 Mercer St, London WC2H 9QJ · Bakery · The West End

A destination bakery in Covent Garden serving inventive French-Asian pastries at premium prices—worth it for pastry lovers, but expect crowds and limited seating.

The verdict

Arôme Bakery delivers exceptional pastry quality with creative Asian-French fusion that justifies its destination appeal across London. However, inconsistent staff product knowledge and notably cramped seating prevent a higher grade—the experience excels for quick pastry runs but struggles during peak hours when queues and limited space create friction.

One caveat: Seating is very limited and space can feel cramped, especially for families or groups.

What to order

What diners say
