  • Margit Gilicze

Dissapointed. The cake was beautiful but we didn't understand why we were told to wait a couple of hours before cutting and eating it. Once we got home we cut it and discovered that it had been frozen. We actually had to wait several hours before the cake was good to eat. We bought the cake in the morning and was able to eat it in the evening. That ruined the celebration we planned for the day. Once defrosted the cake was good but it was a great dissapointment to buy a frozen cake in a bakery. It's a shame because we were very excited to have another bakery shop n North Finchley and the cakes looked so good in the shop.

  • Alexander Anderson

Amazingly delicious fresh cakes, fresh burek, coffee is proper. Every chance I get I always go here for the delicious dessert and coffee. Ofcourse I couldn’t resist burek! Staff is very friendly and polite swift too, place is always busy and there is a good reason for this. Finally a patisserie that all can enjoy!

  • Anna Iskenderova

Generours portions and beautiful cake design and presentation. Excellent coffee but Barista seemed to be in a bad mood and cot too keen on my request for a cappuccino. Cheese and spinach pasty was a bit rubbery. A slice of cake I bought was extremely sugary. Yes, I know the cake is meant to be sweet but the amount of sugar in this one was overpowering - couldn't taste any other flavour or texture. Could have downed a pack of sugar instead. Tastes more like a cheap supermarket own brand cake, not artisan bakery. Sugar content needs to be reduced by about 30-50%.

  • mel laurens

The dessert just tasted awful. was expecting a lot but sadly they did not meet my expectations. the coffee was so bitter even after 2 sugars. the staff looked like they would rather be anywhere else but at work. there were men waltzing in and out the back which was really unprofessional. the decor looks great but it’s shame about everything else that lets it down. won’t be coming again.

  • Ayse

I was disappointed in this cafe that I went to today with great excitement. I couldn't find a place to sit, I asked the waiter and he offered me to sit next to two men I didn't know. two boyfriends but both sitting at separate tables and chatting, i think they were both greek. the waiter offered me to sit next to them instead of warning them. did not solve the problem and walked away. I'm shocked. then he told me to take take a way and so i went out. they are very rude.

  • Daren Kenward

Looking for something different for lunch or tea, then look no further. There are so many tempting Greek treats to choose from, which are freshly made. Cheerful, helpful staff. Decor is well thought out to have a Greek ambience with being tasteless. Unfortunately, seating is limited. A welcome change to the usual chain of coffee shops.

Outside there are six small tables. İnside some more tables on the right and then a large counter full of goodies with some flans or pies the first things you see. Behind the counter a man serves customers and chats, behind him are some prices. The bakery has a long narrow shape to it. The door and Window prettily decorated for Christmas a month ahead. The place is busy at 1pm Sunday afternoon. It all has a professional nice look and feel.

  • Osman Zengin

This place offers a pleasant environment for enjoying desserts. However, the quality of the desserts is not the best. The primary issue seems to be the excessive use of syrups, which often leads to an imbalance in flavours, resulting in overly sweet dishes.

  • Anna P

Fantastic coffees & pie’s . I bought a cake for my son’s bday and was awful. I gave them a chance because my friends says are great and ordered cupcakes and they made me choco muffins with some cream but exactly the pictures I wanted on top at least bsc they were well let’s say muffins and cupcakes are 2 different things. 5 stars for coffee, pies and the staff working there, lovely people 0 stars for deserts.

  • SAM HARIA

Awesome Greek cafe! Ordered a sausage roll and a Philedephia cheese roll and chocolate dessert. Coffee was awesome as well. Only thing is costs were a little higher than similar cafes but I didn't mind as you could see, tell and smell that EVERYTHING was being freshly made onsite! Definitely a cafe to visit for breakfast, a coffee or just somewhere to pick up a cheeky dessert for later on.

  • Lee Harrison

I visited this cafe. I was friendly with the staff but they treated me the opposite. I asked a waitress for water but she told me to get it myself! The male staff member was very miserable and unfriendly. The staff looked after their regular Greek customers but treated their non Greek customers badly. Don’t visit this cafe if you are not Greek. It looks they are angry of non Greek

  • Valerios Xaratidis

Amazing pastrys and sweets. There are some great traditional Greek goods also. The reason of putting 3 stars is because while I was waiting to get my coffee some people inside was smoking . I m not sure if was a vaporiser or electronic cigarette. Such a shame to be this type of arrogant people and destroyed the esthetic of the shop

  • Maria Kalathaki

There is not much I can say except that you should ensure that you go eith an empty stomach so you can fill up on their goodies. FANTASTIC taste, service, fair pricing and I will admit to the sin of returning within a few hours for more... Gluttony is most definately my favourite sin. …

  • Eri Huartos

I get obsessed with this bakery! Everything here is so delicious and quality. I tried Baklava, and wow, it is lovely. I truly recommend it. The pie was great, too. The service is so lovely.

My wife and I went with a friend to Apollo Bakery. The staff were very miserable and unhelpful. it seemed that the staff only liked their regular Greek customers and didn’t like foreigners.A young woman works there it seems not happy at all and very rude. Very rude ! If she is not happy there she must chose other job!

  • Aurel Ramaj

Lovely new bakery place (been here for around 3 months but new to me!) Great atmosphere with soooo much choice (pastries, cakes, biscuits, desserts) and the staff are very helpful in choosing what to select (too much choice) also got the best trileqe in the area. Feels just like I'm back home …

  • Kevin Norman

What an impressive bakery this is! The cakes are absolutely stunning, and the hot baked goods are delicious too. We went there for opening which was somewhat manic but the staff did their best to make sure everyone was looked after well. This is our new local bakery, goodbye other bakeries!

  • Savel Kurti

It's the second time I m visiting Apollo Bakery and I have no words to describe.The coffee and pastries are delicious.100% greek. Fresh cookies and baklava are amazing.Friendly staff, very clean and quick service.I will go there again.I have recommended to all my friends to go there.

  • Angela Berardo

Amazing profiteroles, my got me one for a belated birthday celebration and oh my it was so delicious that we ended up going back the next day to get some more delicious cakes, can’t wait for this lockdown to lift so me and my friends can go and sit down for a nice coffee and cake

Beautiful bakery. Delicious bread, irresistible cakes and pastries. Very up market ambience. Welcoming staff. You can sit outside and enjoy a coffee with your cake. A welcome addition to North Finchley. Oh, and they also sell quality soft ice cream as well.

  • Valery Bogdanov

My favourite bakery at North Finchley! I especially love savory pastries, like cheese & spinach, tomato & onion, beef & cheese and others. They also have a great selection of sweet pastries and deserts. Awesome bugata with custard cream!

  • Louis Pretorius

A nice urban Greek bakery. I dropped in for a coffee and some greek pies. Coffee and food are great! I'm not Greek but there were quite a collection of Greek people socialising. This created a very warning and authentic atmosphere.

  • Federica “Kikka” Cicero

A typical Greek bakery that makes you feel like in Greece! The perfect place where you can have your breakfast or enjoy a very nice coffee with some good pastry and a very kind service.. If you are in London, you have to go once!

  • Yashar Harzandi

We trusted the baker to buy my wife’s birthday cake from this bakery, and I am deeply disappointed. It was such a tasteless and bad cake that I’ll never try their other products! To be specific it was a red velvet cake.

  • Emma Gallagher

The best coffee in all of Finchley! I come here ever time I visit from overseas. Amazing pastries and cakes also. The staff are beautiful Thank you for always being so warm and cheerful. Can’t wait to be back. …

  • MC

If you love Baklava & Coffee (not necessarily at the same time) then no need to go anywhere else. Great for takeaway, even better just to sit outside, relax and watch the world go by. Super chilled and lovely staff.

  • Víctor Manuel Fernández Laguna

I was looking forward to trying Apollo Bakery since I saw it was opening. Indeed I felt as I was in Greece for a second, the feta pastries are delicious and there is a great variety to choose from. Excellent place!!

Looks very nice but food is terrible. I payed £‎4 for a sausage roll however when I ate it it was a tiny frankfurter and most of the inside was ketchup. The food was very overpriced and tasted disgusting

  • Markos

A friend brought us a cake from Apollo Bakery and it was absolutely delicious. Very fresh and made from high quality ingredients. Looking forward to visit the place ourselves soon!

  • Ilo Jancz

Love the cold frappe espresso, i go there nearly every Sunday. But they have amazing cakes & pastries - vegetarian too. Lots of homemade products. Nice staff, good service.

  • Christos Pollatos

Good coffee (and Freddo!). The savoury pastries are honestly as good as homemade ones and they are very generously portioned. Most of the sweets I've tried are good too!

  • Betty Gordon

Well decorated place that can easily trick you to a high quality bakery. Think twice, sweets, bakes etc., very poor quality. Better buy a cake from Tesco.

  • Ayşe Zengin

I am allergic to glucose I believe they use glucose in the products. But Baklava is really good.
