Ambrosia Bakery

The Ambrosia is a Polish bakery and patisserie. A rather unremarkable one too, selling tasty looking but pricey bread (£2.80), a range of coffee and a selection of cream-​heavy cakes. I went for a ‘chocolate ball’ which seemed to be filled with some kind of chocolate praline. Okay value at £1.40 but not amazing. Everything is Polish first and foremost, with English translations under the Polish names for everything. Staff are friendly, the sofas comfy and the soundtrack pop.

This place just opened recently where ‘Le Village Tandoori’ take away used to be.
It is a bakery/​patisserie with a distinctly Polish angle.
It’s nicely designed and actually looks like they have a lot of space and not that many products but on closer inspection you can be treated to a veritable bevy of delicious baked goods.
Lots of lovely looking cakes and a nice selection of bread — all reasonably priced.
2 things would improve this place:
1. sell tea/​coffee
2. put a table and chair in the corner so people can sit there eating their cakes with a tea/​coffee.
Also — don’t be fooled by the front display — it is just for display. I was almost heart broken when I went in to get a loaf that looked divine only to be told it was a ‘gallery’ loaf. Fortunately they had a similar one (last one) on the shelves.
