Gail's has confirmed its opening date for a new bakery in Streatham Hill. The chain's expansion drive across London has continued this year with upmarket sites opening in Stoke Newington, Southwark , and Primrose Hill.

A Gail's spokesperson told MyLondon the Streatham Hill bakery is expected to open its doors for the first time on Wednesday, September 10. Nearby residents were first alerted to this in June when an advert for a head baker appeared online.

Weeks later the frontage of a former pet shop was replaced with Gail's banners, as shopfitters were seen walking in and out of the unit as they prepared it for opening. Gail's has been at the forefront of a class war in recent years as opponents claim the chain is pushing independent shops and cafes to the brink of closure.
