Maison Bertaux is a French pâtisserie in Greek Street, Soho, London. The shop began in 1871, making it the oldest pâtisserie in London. The current owner is Michele Wade. Maison BertauxMaison Bertaux was founded in 1871 by a French communard from Paris named Monsieur Bertaux.[1] It is situated at 28 Greek Street, Soho, London, next door to the Coach and Horses pub;[2] Maison Bertaux is the oldest pâtisserie shop in London.[3][4][5] It is no accident that the shop opened at this location for it was in the heart of the French community in London in the late 19th century. The historic French Protestant church is in nearby Soho Square, while the Catholic Notre Dame de France is in Leicester Place.[6] Since 1988, the owners of Maison Bertaux are sisters Michelle and Tania Wade;[3][1] Michelle has been at the pâtisserie since she was 17 years old. When they took over ownership of the shop, the shop only served one type of tea; it now serves twenty varieties.[7] In 2000, the pâtisserie delivered a traditional wedding cake to a Birmingham wedding party.[2] The pâtisserie contains a piano with a copy of The Art of French Baking on top of it, and three of the mirrors in the shop contain the inscriptions Liberté, égalité, fraternité.[3][8] To celebrate Bastille Day, the shop creates a Tableau vivant.[9] The shop is situated near to the former location of Central Saint Martins art school,{{refn|group=lower-alpha|Central Saint Martins relocated to King's Cross in 2011.[10]}} and also has an art gallery situated on the upper floor, which is owned by the Wade sisters.[4][7] In 2013, the gallery hosted an exhibition of Harry Hill's paintings of celebrities including Bruce Forsyth, Ken Livingstone and Anthea Turner.[11] The upper floor is also used as auditorium with capacity 20.[2] Visitors to the pâtisserie have included Derek Jarman,[12] Steve McQueen, Howard Hodgkin, Grayson Perry, Nicole Kidman, Damon Albarn and Bob Geldof. The pâtisserie also made Lily Allen's wedding cake, and hosted Alexander McQueen's 25th birthday party.[4][7][13] Notes{{notelist}}References1. ^1 {{cite web| url= http://www.weekendnotes.co.uk/maison-bertaux-french-patisserie/| title= Maison Bertaux French Patisserie| last=Lawson| first=Sandra|work=Weekend Notes| date=9 December 2011| access-date=15 June 2016}} 2. ^1 2 {{cite news| url= https://www.standard.co.uk/goingout/restaurants/a-few-exceedingly-good-pastries-6341156.html| title= A few exceedingly good pastries| work=London Evening Standard| date=9 November 2000| access-date=16 June 2016}} 3. ^1 2 {{cite news|url= http://www.ft.com/cms/s/2/6a3a44aa-5c6c-11e3-931e-00144feabdc0.html| title= Festive family treats| last=Lander| first=Nicholas| work=Financial Times| date=6 December 2013| access-date=15 June 2016}} 4. ^1 2 {{cite news|url= http://edition.cnn.com/2014/07/17/travel/oldest-pastry-shops/| title= Classic confectionery: Europe's oldest pastry shops| last=Beurteaux| first=Danielle| work=CNN| date=17 July 2014| access-date=15 June 2016}} 5. ^{{cite book|url= https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=RcaKcepQKXkC&dq=maison+bertaux+history&source=gbs_navlinks_s| title= Suggs and the City: Journeys through Disappearing London|publisher=Hatchette UK | last=Suggs| first=Lionel| date=September 2009| access-date=15 June 2016}} 6. ^Interview with the owner of Maison Bertaux in 'How has London inspired French artists?', 30 Oct. 2017 (Tate Britain): https://www.tate.org.uk/art/art-terms/i/impressionism/how-has-london-inspired-french-artists 7. ^1 2 {{cite news|url= https://www.theguardian.com/culture/2015/may/17/london-soho-stories-sex-drugs-rock-and-roll| title= Soho stories: celebrating six decades of sex, drugs and rock’n’roll| last=Vaines| first=Colin|work=The Observer| date=17 May 2014| access-date=15 June 2016}} 8. ^{{cite news|url= https://www.telegraph.co.uk/travel/destinations/europe/uk/london/721892/London-Absolute-Soho.html| title= London: Absolute Soho| work=The Daily Telegraph| date=23 October 1999| access-date=15 June 2016}} 9. ^{{cite web|url= http://www.camdenreview.com/node/988463| title= Maison Bertaux – a timeless slice of London in Greek Street| last=Moggach| first=Tom| publisher=Camden Review|date=26 February 2015| access-date=15 June 2016}} 10. ^{{cite news|url= https://www.theguardian.com/education/2011/jun/22/central-saint-martins-artists-designers| title= A change of scene for Central Saint Martins| last=Needham| first=Alex|work=The Guardian| date=22 June 2011| access-date=17 June 2016}} 11. ^{{cite news|url= https://www.mirror.co.uk/lifestyle/going-out/tv-comic-harry-hills-folk-1559215| title= TV comic Harry Hill's folk art paintings of celebrity on show in Soho| last=Newman| first=Martin| work=Daily Mirror| date=27 January 2013| access-date=15 June 2016}} 12. ^{{cite book|title=Outlooks : Lesbian and Gay Sexualities and Visual Cultures|last=Horne|first=Peter|last2=Lewis|first2=Reina|date=9 Sep 2002|publisher=Taylor & Francis Ebooks|isbn=9781134803088|page=167}} 13. ^{{cite web|url= http://civilianglobal.com/gallery/london-1996-the-greatest-fashion-show-on-earth-alexander-mcqueen-dante-christchurch/| title= London 1996: The greatest fashion show on Earth| last=O'Flaherty| first=Mark C.| publisher=Civilian Global|date=24 September 2013| access-date=15 June 2016}} External links
