Like any traditional Parsi establishment, Kayani Bakery in Camp is a family-run business. Khodayar and Hormazdiar Kayani started it in August 1955 after they migrated to Pune from Iran in 1947. In 1985, Rustom Kayani joined the business when he was 19.

Kayani Bakery is known for its legendary Shrewsbury Biscuits, an English dessert named after a town in Shropshire. The bakery has just one outlet and accepts online orders only via Zomato. 

What Makes It Awesome

Pune is home to many Parsi and Irani families, and some of the city's finest bakeries have been around since Independence, retaining their charm over the years. Kayani Bakery is one such iconic spot you simply can’t miss. It is known not just in Pune but throughout the country for an array of delicious baked treats, especially Shrewsbury Biscuits.

Kayani Bakery in Camp, Pune, is one of the first places to serve eggless Shrewsbury Biscuits. They make over 300 kilos of these biscuits daily and are almost always sold out. It’s first-come first-serve, and you’ll see people line up hours before they open up shop–competitively waiting to get their hands on the deliciously buttery and crumbly, freshly baked biscuits. 

However, Kayani Bakery in Camp also offers a wide range of cakes and biscuits, with popular items like the Plain Vanilla Cake, Mawa Cake, Brazil nut Biscuit, Ginger Biscuit and Khari Biscuit. This place draws in dessert lovers and has built a loyal following from near and far. Its dedication to quality has made it a beloved landmark. Kayani Bakery is more than just a spot for delicious baked goods, it’s a cultural icon. The bakery's nostalgic charm and classic interiors will take you to a bygone era.

LBB Tip

Kayani Bakery isn't a dine-in spot, so plan your visit accordingly. To avoid the crowd, head over on a weekday after 9:30 AM. Keep in mind that the timings are strict and items tend to sell out quickly.
