These buns are simply irresistible. All flavours are nice. It smells amazing too! Especially when the oven is hot, oh my! You can smell it from so far away. No wonder the line is never short. The girls work at this store are exceptionally sweet too. Despite being extremely busy, they are still nice and patient, caring and energetic

I tried the tiramisu bun at the shop close to Leicester square and it was amazing. The bun had a crust that was just the right mix of sweet and sour. Inside, the tiramisu cream was incredible. It was really flavorful and everything was well balanced. I'd dare to say it's one of the best desserts I've had in London More

  • AMLT

The cinnamon bun was great however their menu is inconsistent and unclear in terms of what is there and what isn't. We also tried the new special with chocolate and pear, the pastry was overdone and the filling was just ok. There are many other better bakeries. Nowhere to sit and queue can be quite long More

This custard bun is one of the best I ever had. The bakery itself is amazing and the custard is so delicious. They are maintaining the same level of high quality across all the branches. The only thing missing is seating area but otherwise a very unique place. Highly recommended, it is worth the hype. More

  • Conor Leigh

Believe the hype- these are SO good. I got the berry cheesecake bun. It’s so tasty, such great flavours. So much filling, and it’s so big- honestly such a good price for what you get! Staff were really friendly too, which is always a big plus. I can’t wait to return

  • Scarlette Fong

Cheesecake is definitely the best one! I came here twice and I promise cheesecake bun is definitely the best among all of them. I have tried the classic cinnamon bun before, I would give it 5.5/10 but the cheesecake definitely worth a 9/10.

  • E D

These buns come in unique flavors and I thought the original was best. The pistachio bun was reminiscent of a baklava. I wasn’t crazy about the texture and it had the mouthfeel of a deflated croissant. Maybe buying them in the morning will

  • Lottie W

Finally managed to try Buns From Home for their delicious pastries/ buns and it was worth the wait! We had the Custard bun and the Cardamon bun, only then to find after paying that they had savoury buns too … So we also got the Spinach and

Please you can not miss this place if you are a cinnamon roll fan. I had the original flavour, it’s so tasty, the smell, the texture… all perfect! The dessert bun is bigger than the roll, my friend tried both of the cheese cake and the

  • Boluwatife Akinola

These buns, while I know they are ruining all the calories I’ve burnt, were so worth it! A friend had recommended me trying and I wasn’t disappointed at all. I got a box of 6 and just pointed to the three options I could see which were

  • Minnie117

Best cinnamon buns I've had in London. Crispy on the top, soft and fluffy inside. Best toasted lightly and eaten warm. We had the original and cardamom. Both were good. It's abit pricey at £3.50 for one. But still worth trying.

  • Andreas Michalis Loucas

Amazing pastries! Would definitely want to have them again, but honestly the queue tales way too long and when my turn arrived the pistachio was soled out :/ . But the quality is very good and price is reasonable

  • Pani

Exquisite buns/sweets! Absolute perfection in every bite. The flavors are divine, and the texture is just right. A must-try for anyone with a sweet tooth, as it defines the epitome of delicious treats!

  • Riya Mathew

We got there around 5PM, and it seemed like they'd already sold out of most things, but we lucked out and grabbed a delicious chocolate bun for £3.50- no wonder they're always sold out!

  • Elena

We used to love buns from home and have been to different branches, all really good except for this one!! It's the second time we try this particular branch and the staff is simply rude

  • Fahad Al-Shabeeb

Buns From Home is a hidden gem! I had the cheesecake and it blew me away. The flavors were outstanding, and it was a truly delightful treat. Highly recommend trying it out!" …

  • Rebekah Chan

Huge and decadent buns! We tried the tiramisu and the pistachio. The buns have a flaky and crisp texture and a yummy sweet glaze. A must try but a little too creamy and sweet for me.

  • Alice Muzzlewhite

We were really excited to try some buns from here having seen the mouthwatering photos online. The shop was clean, the staff were friendly, we went on a Sunday and there was

  • Amelia Paye

Absolutely amazing. I had the cheesecake bun and it was so delicious. My mum had the cinnamon bun and said it was the best she's ever had. Highly recommend! More

  • Hannah Woolls

Insanely good! Had the cheesecake bun and it was absolutely delicious! My daughter had cinnamon and loved it too. Worth the wait in the queue! More

  • Tiffany V

5/5 Tiramisu Bun -- crisp and fluffy croissant bun, deep coffee flavor from the soaked lady finger, and incredibly smooth vanilla custard !!

  • Stella

The place looks a bit untidy. We took the one with the pistachio and the hazelnut-chocolate which weren't good. Used to be better. More

  • Noura Elshebbah

I love cheesecake and bakery, and it was great to combine them. I really liked the buns …

It’s amazing! Highly recommended. It’s a must if you are in London. The price is reasonable compared to the amount given.

  • Ellen. T

Buns that I always crave for it, crunchy outside soft inside. Bought 6pcs and travel all the way back to Singapore.

  • Safa

Great spot and worth trying once! I recommend the custard filled buns over the cinnamon bun. I find the buns too

  • Julia

Really nice buns especially the dessert buns (not too sweet!) but the queue was far too long. Decent prices too.

  • Shuyu Lin

Think it’s a little bit hyped. The queue was long but moving quickly. I waited for 15min.

  • Mary Alice Miller

Staff is friendly, funny and efficient and the shop is pretty and easily accessed.

  • Wridhdhisom Karar

A small corner shop in covent garden that is always crowded for all the right reasons.
