Reviews
Was so excited when this opened up! And although over the months the counters have shrunk, the quality and deliciousness of the baked goods have not! Always soft, fresh, and tasty with so many flavours to choose from. From savoury to sweet, with classics and twists, you'll find something to go with your bubble tea. Well worth the trip! You made it this far. Just before closing, buns are half-price. And don't make me regret sharing, but this is also one of the only good things on TGTG in Colindale.
Staff are nice and there is a big range of different flavours and toppings to have for your drink. The pastries are really good for the price!
Absolutely loved this Asian Inspired Halal Bakery. They have got so many delicious variety of treats from savoury to sweet. Highly recommend trying the tiramisu croissant, chicken floss bun, cinnamon roll, chocolate mousse and the bubble tea.
Finally got to try The Whale Bakery, which is legendary! I must say, it was absolutely stunning~ I chose 5 types of bread, 2 cakes, and 3 bubble teas to take to my friend's house for a shared treat (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧ They were all delicious! 🥖 Bread: ⭐️ Goose Fat Scallion Croissant The perfect combination of savory and sweet, who would have thought! This one is incredibly fragrant. I couldn't resist and ended up eating half of it on the way to my friend's place. The scallions add a rich flavor, and the slight sweetness of the goose fat bursts through the layers. It's definitely an item worth buying again and again. 🍈 Melon Bread It's basically called Melonpan in Japanese (メロンパン), which means "melon bread." It doesn't contain actual melon inside; it's named so because of its appearance resembling a melon. A distinctive feature of Melon Bread is covering the raw dough with a layer of cookie dough before baking. 🍍 Pineapple Bread Combining the Hong Kong-style pineapple bun with butter creates this Pineapple Oil bun. There's no pineapple inside; instead, it's a "bread with a pineapple-like crust." For better taste, let the butter soften slightly at room temperature for half an hour before consuming. 🥐 Matcha Croissant This matcha flavor is intensely rich and delightful, with a refreshing hint of bitterness. The bread itself isn't too sweet, but the milk aroma is strong. 🍞 Marble Toast When you cut this toast, the layers look absolutely beautiful, resembling marble with stacked patterns. It's very soft and moist due to its high moisture content. My friends enjoyed it very much. 🍰 Two types of cakes: 🧀 Hawaiian Nut Cheesecake The crunchy Hawaiian nuts paired with salty caramel sauce and a moderately sweet cheesecake, topped with crumbly cookie crumbs, create a very rich and delightful overall taste. 🍊 Orange Chocolate Cake The combination of orange and dark chocolate is a perfect match. The zesty orange jam complements the smooth and luscious chocolate ganache, along with the chocolate cake. The three flavors combine to create an unforgettable experience. 🧋 Three types of milk tea: 🔥 Flame Whale This is their most classic drink, a combination of black sugar, pearls, and milk tea in the classic old-school style. It also comes with a milk cap on top~ I recommend getting it with 30% sugar levels. 🐳 Passion fruit tea A fragrant passion fruit tea with nourishing peach gum; this one is quite filling, so I suggest having it after a meal. 🍑 Cheesy Peachy Loaded with lots of peach chunks and topped with a slightly salty and dense cheese milk cap. After sipping the milk tea, I recommend using a spoon to scrape off the milk cap at the bottom of the cup.
The bubble tea options are great mixture of Milk tea and fruity tea as well as variety of tasty pastries The pastries are little overpriced for me personally but they do look beautiful. Bubble tea price is average ranging £4-6
