From fluffy soufflé pancakes to tasty vegan bakes, you’ll want a little something sweet from every one of these dessert spots.


It is a truth universally acknowledged that a sweet treat should follow every dinnertime meal. Just something small that a rummage through the freezer or a quick trip to the corner shop can usually provide. An ice lolly here, a packet of Maltesers there.

But sometimes a little something just isn’t enough, and in those circumstances, it’s important to know the best places to get your sugar fix. So, we’ve rounded up nine of the best dessert-only spots in London you need to try, whether you’re craving cake or crumble.
