Bread Ahead is a London-based bakery created by Matthew Jones and Justin Gellatly (a former head baker at St. John Bakery). The duo use British ingredients in their baked goods and also have a range of cooking classes, focused on baking bread. It all started in 2013 with a stall at Borough Market and supplying their goods to restaurants and cafes. A couple of weeks ago in the middle of October, they have expanded and created a shop on Monmouth Street at Seven Dials. Sweet and savoury items are sold here.
I popped into Bread Ahead in Seven Dials at the end of October.
Samples of brownies were being served up, and I had a taste. They are very good. In addition, they had the doughnuts. The doughnuts are one of the items that they are famous for, and I don't think I'd ever had one.
Chocolate, salted caramel, blueberry, vanilla, and doughnuts withoutf filling were on offer. I opted for the vanilla one. It was filled with cream (which did make it a bit messy to eat), but it had just the right ratio of cream to dough.
If you have not been to Bread Ahead, you must try their Instagram-worthly doughnuts.
