There is a new baker in town and it has brightened up the whole neighbourhood! Funky Bakers is a small corner shop / bakery and it is the perfect stop to stock up on your picnic supplies for Park Ciutadella. Or spoil your sweet tooth. Or buy yourself a decadent breakfast. Whatever your plan is, Funky Bakers is the stop to indulge yourself on some good stuff.

My personal favourite are the house buns: soft and tasty just as they are but also great to make yourself an awesome bagel-like sandwich. The San Sebastian cheesecake is to die for, and don’t get me started on their croissants. Everything is freshly made or baked the same morning! It makes me hungry just thinking about it…

Yes, for me it is my breakfast stop. But the shop has many different sandwiches ready to go for a picnic too. It’s a takeaway shop – except for two small benches in the window, there are no seats. Hence the reference to picnics – the park is a 5-minute walk away!

Flavours from all over the world are available at the counter and all the food looks so colourful! Australian sausage rolls, Turkish babkas, Scandinavian smorrebrod and beautiful pastries like Lemon Pie or Pavlova… They’re international flavours produced with zero-km ingredients. Add to that the fact that the coffee they serve comes from a local neighbour – and best coffee place in town – Magnifico…
