Z&Z Bakery is a Lebanese bakery and casual restaurant at 354 Uxbridge Road in Shepherd’s Bush. The counter centres on flatbreads baked fresh to order, with a small dining area that makes the venue suitable for breakfast, lunch or an informal early dinner. Fragrant dough, herbs, cheese and savoury toppings give the room the character of a traditional neighbourhood bakery rather than a conventional fast food shop.
Manakish form the heart of the menu and begin with soft dough spread with zaatar, cheese, minced meat or combinations of several toppings. Zaatar brings thyme, sesame and sumac together in an aromatic layer, while cheese creates a richer and more comforting bake. Fresh vegetables, olives, labneh and chilli can add acidity, crunch or heat, allowing the same simple flatbread base to take on very different flavours.
Lebanese breakfast dishes extend the choice beyond bread alone. Foul combines slowly cooked broad beans with lemon, garlic and olive oil, while hummus offers a smooth chickpea accompaniment with pickles and fresh vegetables. Eggs, grilled cheese, wraps, salads and other savoury plates make it possible to build a larger shared meal from several modest dishes.
Sweet pastries and baked treats provide a natural finish, while coffee, tea and cold drinks are served throughout the day. Vegetarian and vegan diners have substantial choice across zaatar breads, vegetable toppings, hummus, foul and salads, and the kitchen also serves halal food. The direct, family friendly atmosphere and steady rhythm of bread emerging from the oven give Z&Z Bakery its distinctive place on Uxbridge Road.
