About us:
Lola's started in 2006 when two friends turned their love of baking into a business. From a small kitchen in Primrose Hill to over 30 stores, a bustling online shop, and our first international franchise in Japan, we've grown into one of London's favourite bakeries.
We're known for being freshly baked every day and making life's moments extra special. While our roots are in London, we're expanding across the UK – with big ambitions to become a household name nationwide.
We're independently run and proudly growing, with a 400+ strong team all passionate about spreading joy, one cupcake at a time.
