Romeo’s Sugar Free Bakery

Walking along Upper Street it seems like the people of N1 must be suffering from a gluten intolerance epidemic with all the restaurants’s signs announcing they’re «Gluten-​Free!». But we were surprised that the window full of beautiful cakes and mille feuilles said «Sugar Free Bakery».
We popped in and realised that had a whole selection of savoury items like pizza slices, quiches, etc. We sat in the back of the café and ordered tea, coffee, sausage roll and a spinach pizza slice. The tea and coffee were perfect and the sausage roll was really nice. The spinach pizza slice was huge and full of topping but I don’t know of this was one of their also gluten-​free items because the dough was a it on the undercooked doughy.
I really liked the idea and will probably come back to try the cakes but will be taking it back home instead because the mix match of vintage chairs needed re-​padding and were uncomfortable. The back of the café was a bit dark. The staff were lovely and efficient though!

Walking past this place a couple of times I had seen that they also serve savoury dishes. So we went there for lunch and chose from their different quiches (heated up) which come with a selection of salads. The spinach&mushroom and the roasted vegetables quiche were both yummy.
When you know they’re low in sugar you feel even more tempted to have cake afterwards, so we ordered two pieces of the apple&almond cake to take home with us. The apple cake was fine but not overwhelming. There really seemed to be no sugar at all in the dough but I didn’t feel like it was missing either. But… maybe that’s what made me not go crazy for it…
I probably have to try some of their other cakes before I judge!
