The Savvy Baker will serve a range of protein brownies, protein iced coffees, shakes, coffees, and treats.

Entrepreneur Savannah Roqaa built her online business The Savvy Baker almost overnight during the coronavirus lockdown period in 2020. She began gaining success after posting her cakes on her Instagram page, which now has over 53,000 followers.
Many of the goodies produced by the Savvy Baker are also beloved by former Leeds United and England star Kalvin Phillips. The businesswoman opened her first bakery in Roundhay in 2022 which has had great success. Six months later a second bakery opened and Savannah has also had pop up bakeries in shopping centre and at events.
Speaking about her success, Savannah said: "We're open. I started The Savvy Baker this time three years ago in the midst of lockdown, completely random and not planned at all, but I ran with the idea. Worked all days and nights and built the business up.
"Two years ago I got an empty warehouse and used the money I had saved from selling locally and online to renovate it and built a bakery to be able to meet the super high demand.
"One year ago today, we opened our first ever café in Roundhay, then six months later opened a second café and now our third café with a brand new concept is here. Thanks for joining the journey."
She added: "Pop down and see us, we have protein brownies, protein iced coffees, shakes, gorgeous coffees, and expresso. We also are stocking our OG bakes, protein brownies aren't your thing. You can visit us without using the gym, we're at the front desk of Ultra Flex Gym."
