The best cookie we've ever had - Edit
We went to Okja late in the day, about 30 mins before closing, so understandably they only had a few items left. We bought the pistachio scroll, the hazelnut scroll, and the cookie. All the items were dreamy, especially the cookie!
Read moreNo seating inside, but there is a bench outside.
Highly recommend 💚

Some of the best pastries I’ve ever had - Edit
Okja is a cute little bakery with seriously delicious pastries—possibly the best I’ve ever had. We tried the pain au chocolat and a pistachio-hazelnut bun (or something like that), and the latter was absolutely incredible. You have to try it.
Read moreHonestly, I can’t praise this place enough. It wasn’t too expensive either, and the coffee was quite good. 100% recommend.

Ridiculous pastries - Edit
One of the best pastries I ever had. Nuff said. Fine coffee. Mostly togo, two outdoor benches.

Underwhelming - Edit
I was expecting there to be more on offer here. We tried a few buns and they were all ok, though not spectacular. I’d love to see them expand to more brioches, cakes or other items.

Okja definitely lived up to the hype! We ordered the Cinnamon Swirl and plain croissant. Just fantastic! It’s amazing how everything is completely plant based. They definitely need to open a bigger shop with seating!

Totally delicious - Edit
Not obvious from the road but easy enough to find. Bright clean and airy with kitchen visa le at the back. No seating but handy benches outside.
Read moreTried the pesto and cheese pastry and the pistachio cream cheese pastry.
Both ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS!!!! Well worth the stroll to find.
At £4 I think they were perfectly priced and would most definitely try to go there again when in London.
FABULOUS!
The drinks were ok but mocha - very overpowering as was the matcha latte.
The lady in the shop was bright and bubbly which is always a bonus !

incredible - Edit
the pastries here are second to none. the cheesey pesto pastry was out of this world, deliciously crispy with a perfectly doughy middle, not to mention the highly flavoursome filling. the pistachio swirl was also amazing. the matcha latte and mocha weren’t the best we’ve had, the mocha being quite strong and bitter but still nice. couldn’t recommend the pastry’s more. only an 8 minute walk from london liverpool station.

Outstanding all vegan pastries and bakery! - Edit
Unlucky and lucky to arrive when it’s closed. Incredibly kind staff working inside treated us to some beauties anyway which are seriously drool worthy. 🤤 They have worked with a Michelin starred chef for their pastry and it shows. The croissant cinnabun is exquisite. The croissant bun has a sweet glazing making it even more decadent than your normal croissant. It all looks crazy reasonably priced for London too. It’s not open today but back open full time from Monday, 19th August 2024. A must visit if you have a sweet tooth and want to support plant-based businesses!
Read moreI finally got to try their proper buns and oh are they killer! I’m dreaming of them already and wanting to go back. The pistachio swirl was my favorite with the orange glaze full of pistachios on top. The pastry is so flaky and moist like the best croissant layers you could imagine. I heated mine up at home in the microwave. The cinnamon swirl was awesome too but the flavors weren’t as pronounced. There were little raisins in that too. Can’t wait to go back.

Great vegan bakery - Edit
Great vegan bakery.
Read moreI had a chocolate cake which was excellent. There is not a lot of choice though, but the quality is great .
I didn't know before going there but it's take away only. I just wish they had a few seats and tables.

I love this little vegan bakery - Edit
Fantastic bakery with the best chocolate chip cookies we’ve had in the city. It’s taken it only there’s over to sit and there’s no bathroom.

Please take me back there every single day - Edit
I want to go back there, try all their pastries, maybe even sleep there and live there permanently to be surrounded by their delicious vegan goodness. I’m being emotional just thinking about their pistachio pastry. Please open in Spain or France, I’ll be your biggest customer 😂

We had the cinnamon swirl, a latte, and matcha latte. Everything was brilliant and reasonably processed for Central London.
Read moreThe open kitchen is a lovely concept too, however there’s not much indoor seating so factor that into any visit!
