Islington (Parliament Politics Magazine) – A renowned Paris bakery is set to open its first London location in Covent Garden, Islington, bringing its signature pastries and Parisian flair to the city
The love child of pals Giovanni and Baptiste, “Copains” (French for “friends”) will open on Neal Street on Tuesday, November 25.
However, it’s taste with a twist because the two employ flours other than regular wheat because they are dedicated to leading a healthy lifestyle. Because “100%” of the cuisine is gluten-free, it thereby serves people with celiac disease and gluten intolerance.
There are also lactose-free options on the menu, and sometimes the dish is entirely vegan. There’s a commodity for everyone, whether you are looking for viands, galettes, or indeed drinks.
Still, you can buy vesture and accessories in addition to reflections and potables.
Also, the chain intends to open a branch on Upper Street in Islington in addition to its eighteen living locales around La France, so it does not just end in Covent Garden. Also, there are plans to open two new locales in Belgium’s capital, Brussels.
Although there aren’t yet any reviews, customers in France are certainly very chuffed. One happy American customer left the following review:
“So wonderful I went twice!! they have a few locations and I wish we had them in NYC. I had pastries and a baguette. Not only was it delicious but the staff spoke English and was very educated and also had opinions of their favourites. A must!”
And a second raved: “Really high quality food with lots of vegan options too. My coeliac sister was thrilled! The cashier was very polite and clocked us as English immediately. He helped us read all the signs and made us some lovely coffee too. Will definitely be back.”
