Located on Mentmore Terrace, just a short stroll from London Fields, Pavilion Mentmore Studios brings together bakery, café and restaurant in one light-filled space. Part of the much-loved Pavilion group, which has built its reputation on exceptional bread and thoughtful baking, this East London venue offers a relaxed all-day dining destination where the craft of breadmaking takes centre stage.
The heart of the operation is the on-site bakery, where Pavilion’s signature loaves are made using organic flour milled in-house. Freshly baked bread underpins much of the menu, whether served simply with high-quality toppings, transformed into generously filled sandwiches, or enjoyed alongside a selection of seasonal dishes. The cooking champions straightforward flavours and carefully sourced ingredients, with a focus on produce that reflects the changing seasons.
Breakfast, brunch and lunch are all catered for, with a menu designed to showcase the bakery’s strengths. Expect flaky pastries, sourdough toast, hearty sandwiches and a range of larger plates, all prepared with the same attention to quality and provenance that has become synonymous with the Pavilion name. Coffee is equally important here, brewed using Pavilion’s own house-roasted beans and served by a team that takes its coffee culture seriously.
Inside, the atmosphere is bright, airy and welcoming. Large windows flood the room with natural light, while views into the working bakery provide a glimpse of the craft behind the counter. Communal tables and counter seating lend the space a flexible feel, making it just as suitable for a quick breakfast as it is for a leisurely lunch, casual meeting or afternoon spent working remotely.
For those on the go, Pavilion Mentmore Studios also offers an extensive takeaway selection, including fresh bread, pastries and speciality coffee. Outdoor seating is available too, providing a pleasant spot to enjoy a coffee and pastry when the weather allows. Combining excellent baking, seasonal cooking and a laid-back neighbourhood atmosphere, Pavilion Mentmore Studios remains a popular destination for East London locals and visitors alike.
