For almost a decade, Borneo Café & Bakery has been bringing freshly baked pastries, beautiful cakes, tempting desserts and great coffee to the heart of Palmers Green. Now, an exciting new chapter is about to begin with the arrival of Borneo Bakery & Pâtisserie in Winchmore Hill.
Borneo began in 2017 as a small neighbourhood café and bakery with a simple passion: to create high-quality food, made with care, and serve it in a warm and welcoming environment. Over the years, the business has grown and evolved, but quality, freshness and variety have remained at the heart of everything it does.
A Favourite in Palmers Green
Located at 29 Green Lanes, Palmers Green, Borneo has become a familiar favourite within the local community – whether stopping by for a morning coffee and freshly baked pastry, catching up with friends over something sweet, or choosing the perfect cake for a special celebration.
The counter is filled with a colourful selection of sweet and savoury pastries, cakes and desserts, complemented by illy coffee. From a classic espresso or cappuccino to Greek favourites such as freddo espresso and freddo cappuccino, there is something for every coffee lover.
A New Borneo in Winchmore Hill
The next chapter is just around the corner, with a brand-new Borneo Bakery & Pâtisserie preparing to open at 3 Chaseville Parade, Chaseville Park Road, Winchmore Hill, N21 1PG.
The new location will take the Borneo concept a step further, with an even greater focus on the bakery and pâtisserie experience, while maintaining the quality, freshness and friendly service that customers have come to know and love in Palmers Green.
Discover the New Cakes & Sweets
Borneo’s growing collection of cakes and sweets brings together rich chocolate flavours, fresh fruit combinations and contemporary favourites.
The current cake range includes Dubai Chocolate, Red Velvet, Garash, Oreo & Chocolate, Ferrero, Chocolate, Mango & Passion Fruit Curd, and Carrot Cake – offering plenty of choice for birthdays, celebrations, family gatherings, or simply enjoying something sweet with a cup of coffee.
Alongside the cakes is an ever-changing selection of pastries, individual desserts and sweets, perfect for enjoying in the café or taking home to share with family and friends.
Familiar Flavours for the Greek & Cypriot Community
Borneo’s selection also includes seasonal favourites that hold a special place in Greek and Cypriot traditions. At Easter, customers can enjoy tsoureki-style Easter breads, while Christmas brings the much-loved melomakarona and kourabiedes – familiar festive flavours that bring a little taste of home to North London.
Paired with a pastry, cake, dessert or a good coffee, these traditional favourites add to what makes Borneo an easy place to meet friends, catch up with family, or simply embrace that very Greek tradition of slowing down and enjoying a little more time over coffee.
Made with Love, Served with a Smile
Despite its growing selection and the exciting arrival of a second location, the idea behind Borneo remains refreshingly simple: make everything with love and serve everyone with a smile.
It is an approach that has shaped the Palmers Green café from the very beginning and one that will continue at the new Borneo Bakery & Pâtisserie in Winchmore Hill.
