Nothing lile it used to be - Edit
They changed management and now it's nothing like it used to be before. Not coming back, there are many other truly vegan business in London way better than this one.

Creative croissant-like pastries. We had one with almond filling and one with pistachio. Both were delicious!

Best pastries on the planet. - Edit
Not a hyperbolic title - I've had vegan croissants all over the world, nothing touches okja. Not even patisserie vegetal (my previous no. 1). Everything here is a hit. I hope the business stays open, as it's so hard to go back to anything else after having this.

Love this place! - Edit
We just had to try more after finding one of their baked goods at a market stand nearby. Delicious, delicious, delicious! We're glad we went back to find their bakery and have a larger variety to pick from.

Very tasty - Edit
Even though I usually prefer sweet pastries (which were obviously also very good) my absolute favourite was the sausage roll one, it was so good!

delicious sweet pastries - Edit
The croissant and the choco hazel swirl were both very tasty, but a bit dry. If you’re lucky, you can watch the pastries being made.

Delicious pastries - Edit
We picked up breakfast at Okja a couple of times back in April. There's a bench outside but no indoor seating, so it's best for takeaway. We tried a few different pastries.
Read moreThe vanilla bean croissant had a nice, crispy bake. The icing and flavour was sweet and tasty.
The cinna swirl also had crispy pastry, along with a sticky filling and cream cheese topping which balanced the sweetness nicely - though I have more of a sweet tooth and would have been happier with regular icing.
The choco swirl was certainly sweet enough for me! It was fluffy and crisp in the right places and topped with a rich tasty chocolate spread. It was a real treat.
On the savoury front, we had a sausage roll. It was good and meaty and well-seasoned, with plenty of filling, and a nice crunch from the seeds on top.
The cheese and pesto swirl had good crispy pastry, and a tasty filling, with both the cheese and pesto flavours coming through.
Highly recommended for your pastry needs!

Delicious and surprisingly well priced - Edit
(Jun 2026 edit) reduced to three stars as they’ve started selling cow milk. so incredibly disappointing
Read moreI loved the vanilla croissant and the regular croissant and coffee were good. The price is outstanding for fresh pastries in London. Will go out of my way for these in the future

This is untrue. From what I have seen, their new branch has an option for dairy milk. This one is still fully vegan.

Best pastries I’ve had in London - Edit
I tried the cheese and pesto swirl, the pistachio and lemon swirl and the almond swirl. All of them were amazing. Flaky, buttery, the nut butter tasted like the actual nut, not a filled with sugars spreadable.

Read moreOnly minus thing was that they offer cows milk for drinks so the place is not fully vegan.

Delicious pastries & high-quality coffee - Edit
The pastries are very delicious and freshly baked on-site (you can watch). The coffee and matcha lattes are excellent and have a rich flavor. The staff are polite, and even when things get busy, they stay on top of everything.

Fabulous pastries from an all-vegan bakery. Take out only, but a delicious treat if you’re in the area. Recommended.

No gluten-free options - Edit
Visited with a friend who bought the most incredible looking pistachio swirl, and said it was amazing.
Read moreUnfortunately, Okja have no gluten-free options at all, which is very unusual for London and was super disappointing. I completely understand concerns about cross-contamination, but there are many establishments with much smaller kitchens that are able to offer safe gluten-free options. There is much demand for gf stuff in the vegan space, so I really hope Okja consider this in the future.

Why give a bad rating just because they don‘t offer a glutenfree option? It's not as if they advertise it but don't actually offer it.

Good pastry - Edit
We tried a couple of pastries. The lemon poppy swirl was our favourite. The cinnamon swirl could have used a bit more cinnamon.

Will be back - Edit
I came here after someone had recommended this place recently and a friend wanted to visit Spitalfields market. The choice was larger than I had imagined and everything looked so good it was hard to choose. I went for something sweet, my friend for savoury and also a couple of hot drinks. I tried the Hoji latte, a sweet, softer kinda matcha. Everything was so good, the staff super friendly and it was nice to see the bakery/ process. Will definitely come back to try more flavours.

Had the sausage rolls, which were really tasty with nuts and sage.

Also sweet pastries were superb and very fluffy.
