It’s an early morning in Cairo, I just woke up and I need a fresh breakfast and some warm and delicious coffee. it’s at times like these I am grateful I live near The Bakery Shop.

Fresh, warm and crunchy croissants come to mind when I think of the bakery shop. I rarely have anything plain, but their croissants are so delicious I could just eat them without any additions and be quite satisfied. Still, their stuffed croissants are beautifully done and very pleasing to look at, and if like me, you try to avoid dairy, then you can ask them to make your coffee with almond milk. 

It gets better: in addition to all that, if you’re craving something sweet, they have a collection of muffins, doughnuts and fresh juices to cater to your needs and their staff is always friendly and helpful. I love the amazing service – it definitely elevates the experience (who wants to get their breakfast served with a frown?)

The Bakery Shop has become a part of my daily routine, and I’ve made it a challenge to myself to try everything on their menu.
