Oregano Bakery And Pantry

I am not sure what to write that will truly translate the decadence of this shop onto the page .. Friendly, warm, welcoming, irresistible, visual, decadent, delicious .. I could go on .. What a beautiful spot with the most gorgeous cakes .. Mine was salted caramel cheesecake and YES that is popcorn on top I HAVE to go BACK tomorrow !!

Delightful boutique bakery in Linden. Be warned, the number of delectable treats on display is going to make it difficult to restrain yourself. Definitely going back to try their pies. Service is warm and personal.

This unassuming little bakery in Linden is the perfect place to enjoy a coffee and sublime sweet treat! There is an ever changing array of mouthwatering cakes, tarts and interesting bakes on display. Think polenta cake, milk tarts, flourless chocolate gateaux and so much more! You have to try their cinnamon swirls/ buns to die for! Apart from sitting in, you can preorder from their wide selection of platters for your next party/ event/ office lunch. The staff/ chefs are genuinely passionate about their trade and very welcoming too. I highly recommend this place if you appreciate fine home made delights!!

Oregano offers an outstanding variety of baked goods. The milktarts are better than my mother in law's, and the cinnamon rolls taste like they were made with you in mind. Treat yourself by buying a couple of slices of the cakes on offer (the caramel brownie cheesecake and the beetroot and walnut cake are particular favourites). Go in with a plan, though if you try to freestyle it here, you might walk out with one of each ...

Those that know me, will know that I'm an absolute cake fanatic. I've been all over Jo'burg and I can confidently say that Oregano does the best cakes in Jo'burg, if not in Gauteng. Upon entering the quaint little bakery, you're greeted by the friendly faces who pride themselves on their personalised service. The Oregano philosophy is to keep it small enough to achieve excellence and big enough to accommodate the customer. The cakes are phenomenal and I'd recommend that any cake lover should try their cakes if you haven't already.
