Lunko
Croissants + Coffee
Lunko by the Lane — powered by The Butterholic
This is where buttery layers and carefully brewed coffee come together, right off Lark Lane. We’re a little takeaway spot tucked behind the main stretch, with good vibes, great pastries, and coffee that hits the mark every time.
What we bake
Our pastry menu changes often, but you'll always find a mix of bold, flavour-packed creations — both sweet and savoury.
On the sweet side, think golden croissants, cruffins filled to the brim, flaky danishes, and our signature cube croissants. Our vegan Biscoff Cube has become a bit of a local favourite, but there’s always something new to discover in the pastry case.
If savoury’s more your thing, we’ve got options. Our focaccia sandwiches are a staple. And we always keep solid vegetarian options too — like our Turkish Eggs Danish.
Every pastry is handmade by our team, led by our co-founder and Executive Pastry Chef, Marius. Every croissant is baked fresh each morning and following a rigorous process that takes three days from start to finish. No shortcuts. Just good ingredients and time.
Coffee is just as important
We brew using beans from local roasters: West Coast Coffee and Crosby Coffee — and we don’t mess around when it comes to quality. Whether you’re after a flat white, filter, or iced matcha, our baristas will sort you out.
Drinks rotate with the seasons. You might catch a blueberry iced matcha, house-made lemonade, or something bright and refreshing with our fruit coulis. Our hot chocolate is made with real flakes from TABLE Chocolate, and our teas are from Liverpool Tea Warehouse. We use syrups from William Fox if you're after something a little sweet, and we’ve got plant-based milk on hand too, currently using ROA (Real Oat Arts).
The space
We’re takeaway only, but the shop has been rebuilt from the ground up — literally. Our new space has a fresh front window, custom shelving, and a clean, open layout that lets you see the work happening behind the counter and the kitchen. It’s still cosy, still low-key, but everything’s been elevated. The space was thoughtfully designed by our co-founder Adelina, who brought her creativity and background in art into creating the kind of place she always imagined — warm, functional, and full of character.
