Eight years on, sanger specialist Hector’s Deli’s commitment to quality control has resulted in a bakery that not only provides bread to its sandwich shops, but is a destination in its own right. That’s helped by the fact the team has introduced a brand new viennoiserie program. Pastry and sandwich artistry are on full display in the warmly lit chapel of carbs.

Must order: Cinnamon bun. It’s got “Cinnabon vibes”, according to Hector’s owner Dom Wilton, but uses laminated croissant dough.
