There ain't no cow in this
Bake-a-boo is a gorgeous little cake shop/cafe in West Hampstead (nearest tube Kilburn). Mill Lane is definitely moving up in the world, a greasy spoon ahs become a posh caf�, there's a new organic shop and now Bake-a-boo. It's very cute, all shabby chic, I get the feeling they like Cath Kidston. They serve a variety of lactose free and gluten free cupcakes, and while they're not as impressive or tasty as Peyton & Byrne, they're very good considering. They serve afternoon tea with tea in gorgeous china teapots, both a normal one & a sensitive one for coeliacs and lactose intolerants. They also cater childrens parties.
It's in our area so we frequently pop in for take aways but the caf� itself is gorgeous and I would recommend a visit.
I am giving it 4 stars because it's so hard to get good dairy free cupcakes and these guys have done it. As a lactose intolerant it's a real treat :-) I haven't actually eaten the savoury fare there though so these stars are purely for the tea, cupcakes and brownies.
