Copains Islington

Gluten-free croissants, babka and brioche on Upper Street, from a bakery that makes nothing else.

Dedicated gluten-free

Copains bakes without wheat at all, which puts the weight on the viennoiserie: lamination is a gluten trick, and layers that shatter rather than crumble are the problem most gluten-free bakeries never take on. That is the counter to judge it by. Beside it, babka, brioche, loaf cakes, tarts and cookies, and a savoury side — filled focaccia and baguettes — which matters more than it sounds, because a sandwich is the thing a coeliac usually cannot buy.

The same bakery has a shop in Covent Garden, and it began in Paris.
