About

Okja is a bakery focused on flaky croissants, filled swirls and savoury pastries such as the pesto-and-cheese swirl and sausage roll; reviewers say the team makes its own vegan butter on site. It’s primarily a takeaway stop, with a bench outside and a view into the baking area, and reviews praise the coffee and matcha too; one reviewer reported that cow’s milk was available for drinks, so check before ordering if you require everything to be vegan.
