Vegan Cookie in Spitalfields Market

This isn’t a big news day around FGV HQ today, but I do want to remind you about one of my favourite vegan bakeries in London.

Read more below.


The Polka Dot Bakery has been serving up baked goods for a few years and in that time has developed a loyal customer base.

Currently serving in Old Spitalfields Market in Central London, The Polka Dot Bakery is well-known amongst vegans AND gluten-free shoppers.

Every single item available from the market stall is vegan and gluten-free! That is quite a rare combination to find.

My visit today involved me developing a short-lived relationship with a birthday cake flavoured stuffed cookie. I say short-lived because I devoured it within minutes.

Get along to the bakery every Saturday and Sunday in Old Spitalfields Market, just a few minutes from Liverpool Street Station.
