The craving (and difficulty) in finding a quality loaf sparked Ran Avidan and Tom Molnar’s entrepreneurial drive to open GAIL's artisan bakery. They left their safe city jobs (as McKinsey & Co Consultants) to team up with Gail Stephens, founder of Baker and Spice and The Bread Factory - a small artisan bakery supplying London’s who’s who of top chefs. It was here Ran and Tom developed their vision to take the bread top chefs enjoyed and put it within hands reach of Londoners.
We opened up our first home, GAIL’s, in 2005 on Hampstead High Street where we are aiming to deliver a more original and local alternative to the chains – people know your name around here and the staff know what they are selling. Secondly, we still think it is better to make a great potato & rosemary sourdough than pocket a few extra pence – we’re 100% chemical free!

Bread Heaven
Heavenly bread, cakes and savory bits. Coffee is the best in Notting Hill I think along with their pain au chocolates. They have outside tables (with heaters) and limited seating inside (downstairs they have made into a comfy seating area but up top is not so comfy.
Totally mad on the weekend with the market crowd around but during the week you can usually get a table. If not grab some bread to take home, it is truly divine.

Gails
Part of a chain (The other branch is in Hampstead).
Gail is a cafe/bakery. We tried some of the quiche and they were superb! The bread looks amazing and the place itself is nice to sit in. The service was just one big mistake but I will forgive them because they have just opened and I am sure they will be ok by now. Even just for the bread, give it a try...
I was walking in the street and saw one of their delivery cars with a sign saying Gail's Force'... That's really funny... sounds like a secrete operation to bring bread in time to Gail's cafes...
