The Baklava Company
Inside The Baklava Company
The Baklava Company is a contemporary café nestled on Upper George Street in Luton, offering a bright and modern spot to enjoy a diverse range of specialty coffees, teas, and Middle Eastern-inspired desserts. Locals appreciate it as a relaxed yet stylish place to drop in for both casual catch-ups and more laid-back solo coffee breaks.
Stepping inside, you'll notice the interior blends chic, minimalist design with warm lighting, giving off an upscale vibe that some visitors compare to cafes they'd find in Dubai. The atmosphere is welcoming without being overly formal, making it comfortable whether you're meeting friends or settling in with your laptop for a bit.
The menu leans heavily on quality espresso-based drinks alongside a unique selection of flavored iced lattes and teas, including Karak Chai and Pink Chai, which give a nod to local tastes and Middle Eastern influences. These tea options, alongside classic espresso brews and inventive iced varieties, make it a spot worth trying throughout the day, although mid-mornings and early afternoons seem most popular with those coming for a caffeine boost or an afternoon treat.
Baklava lovers will feel at home here, with the namesake dessert and other sweet offerings drawing positive attention for their texture and sweetness balance. Frequent visitors often mention pairing their drinks with the bakery’s softer, richer cakes, such as the "dream cake," to complete the experience. The quality of these pastries adds a comforting, indulgent element that complements the café’s fresh beverage lineup.
The café’s clientele is a mix of local professionals, students, and families, reflecting Luton's diverse community. Friendly and attentive staff contribute to making visits feel personal without intruding, which adds to the overall ease of hanging out here for a while.
While there isn’t dedicated outdoor seating, the lively but clean interior creates a pleasant environment that works well year-round. For anyone looking to escape the hustle momentarily or share a casual meetup with a small group, The Baklava Company steadily fits the bill. Its blend of Middle Eastern flavors and familiar café standards makes it an approachable addition to Luton’s local coffee scene.
