I’m actually traveling to London for the first time this June :) This couldn’t have come in a better time for me!
April for me
Hey, me too! You're not going to the Cubs/Cards series , are you (I am)?
June is a very good time to visit London !! Have a blast ! I did !! I went to Wales/ England last summer for the 2nd time ! People were super kind to me in both Wales/ England !! 🇬🇧 Have a safe trip & back ! 👍👍💜🥁🐉🎤🎶✈️💞
@@iamdisgusted Have lots of fun !! Have a safe trip there / back !! 👍👍💜🥁🐉🎤🎶✈️🇬🇧💞
@@jimwells1583 What's that ? Please fill me in ! Lol.💜🥁🐉🎤🎶✈️🇬🇧💞
Black Pudding doesn't taste half as bad as it sounds. And it has even been declared a superfood over the last 10 years. Essential for a fry up IMO.
I had been skeptical until I tried it on my last UK trip and surprisingly it tasted good. I was very pleasantly surprised.
put the fried egg on top of the black pudding, and crack the yoke over it :)
A good tip for dining economically in London is the ‘pre theatre’ option. You often get special value prices if you eat early (typically between 5-7, which often suits Americans because many like to dine early anyway). For fans of Turkish cuisine my absolute favourite is ‘Kazan’ in Pimlico. A selection of meze starters plus a main was around £20 last time I was there and it was divine.
Headed over in one month, already have reservations at Dishoom and have added so many of these to our "must eat". Trying new food is my favorite part of travel.
Nice! we have tons more Londoner-approved food reccs in our London guides: shop.loveandlondon.com
this lady introduces the dishes very clearly. i decided to go there to have a look. thanks lady.
You're welcome.❤️
I love all your videos, I need to follow in your footsteps when dining out in London
We have our best food reccs in our guides and they come with maps and extras. Shop.loveandlondon.com
Mouthwatering for my London trip!
This channel appeared in my recommended for whatever reason and I’ve been binge-watching. Super interesting, useful content and great production values. I had no plans to go to London but now I’m thinking I should!
Great to hear, thanks for watching!
I felt in love with your vlogs🥺it makes me trying more to moving there
I really like watching your channel, you show everything very well
Hi, new follower here! London trip in middle of April, my second time but 10 years since last so it feels like new. I really appreciate your take on things to see the real London and not onlythe touristy (well I'm sure some of that will fit in as well)! A bit overwhelming with all the possibilities but with some planning it will be fine!
Hey Peter! welcome :) And thanks for the kind words! Yes lots to plan but we do have our 3-Day and 6-Day Itineraries which will help if you want to save yourself all of the research and planning time: shop.loveandlondon.com
Your channel is incredible and very useful! I only recently met you, but I already love your channel and you! ❤️ You are very sweet! 😊 Thank you for your work! 😊
Pie mash and liquor is wonderful. Slathered in vinegar yummy.
My favourite places for really goooood fish & chips in London are: Rock & Soul Plaice (established 1871) a few streets off Covent Garden, The Queen's Head, Durham Street (a small street behind Piccadilly, a tiny pub), and my absolute favourite in walking distance at least where I usually am when in London is The Spaniard's, snuggled at the corner of Hampstead Heath close to Kenwood House. - I lived in London 30 years ago, and I still and dearly miss it.
it is called Rock and Sole Place!
@@micheledemeyer3428 No, I am sorry, it's not.
The word "plaice" is set as a deliberate pun because it's a fish they serve.
So, dear random person, who could not resist the itch to unnessecarily correcting me without being able to contribute anything constructive or informative to the subject, please do your research. Thank you.
I will be going to London in April, I am so excited! I love traveling for the food!
Great 🙂🙂🙂
Have never clicked a notification so quick & such a perfect video, as I'm planning a London trip currently.
ENJOY your stay in London.
Nice !! Have a look at our itineraries btw: shop.loveandlondon.com thanks for watching !
@Love and London ended up downloading London 101 and it's been super helpful thanks.
Love the channel! We have been watching you for years! 💕💕
Could you do an updated vlog on cheap eats in London?
Thanks so much! I'll add it to the list but in the meantime we have lots of cheap eat options in our guides! shop.loveandlondon.com
I hope I can travel to London soon. It looks amazing. Can't wait to visit there
Best video ever! Need to sit down and make bookings for our April trip. Some of these are on the list for sure!
Amazing. Also be sure to check out our itineraries and area guides in our shop for your trip! Shop.loveandlondon.com
Just subscribe! Love your videos, your explanation, the music, and your warm energy! ❤😊 Here I come (again), London!

We love London as well, so we will definitely visit some of these places. Dishoom's Ruby Chicken is the BEST!
I'm getting so hungry from this video! So excited for my trip to London next month
Glad to hear it Emily! We have even more food recss in our London guides: shop.loveandlondon.com

Gurl you are my favorite London guide for sure yaaaaaasssss 😊🤩🤗🧁🥧
We're glad to hear it :)

You're very welcome ❤️
We were recently in London and enjoyed Sunday roast at Blacklock and afternoon tea at the savoy and Peggy porschen in Belgravia. Lovely experiences!
Nice!
great
I am traveling to London this July. I can't wait to try all the dishes recommended in the video.
Nice!!! :) Thanks for watching! Be sure to have a look at our itineraries as well: shop.loveandlondon.com
This gave me the chills to travel to London very soon
I know its really delicious food thank you for sharing this video! Philippines
Thanks for watching!
Don't watch if you are hungry and far from food !!
Excellent guide to eating in London
And don't forget that most Fullers pubs offer outstanding and excellent food at decent prices - and of course accompanied by a pint of delicious London Pride !
Loved the Breakfast Club when we were in London last summer. Food was super tasty and the staff was excellent. It's the only restaurant we went to twice on that trip (the Shoreditch / Hoxton location). And Dishoom was one of our FAVORITE meals of that trip - thank you so much for the recommendation! Loved, loved, loved the food, the cheery staff and the wonderful ambiance. I've added Goddard's to the list for our next trip, thanks!
Nice !! Thanks for watching Louie ❤️❤️❤️
Cheers Jess, I’ve just moved from Melbourne 🇦🇺 so this has come in handy to get great recommendations 😊
Fab! Thanks for watching!
Heading to London in two weeks so I'm happy to see this video!
Nice thanks for watching! Don't forget to grab one of our London guides: shop.loveandlondon.com
We stayed in SOHO and there was Breakfast Club right around the corner from the Hotel One of the best breakfasts I've had! Plus the environment was pretty cool too!
Nice! Thanks for watching!
Nice! I'm visiting London for the first time in a couple of weeks. Can't wait to try the Full Monty breakfast
Enjoy 😎 thanks for watching !
I went to poppies! I went to the one in Camden Town there were signs everywhere . So good!
nice!
I was looking for somewhere to eat near Shoreditch today, where I'd been photographing street art, and realised I was close to the Unity Diner, so I tried it out. Yep, the tofish and chips was excellent! A bit on the expensive side, though, so it can only be a rare treat for me. I'm a budget-dining sort of person, so I'm more likely to be found in Brick Lane, where the restaurant managers haggle in the street over your custom. 😀
Nice and informative! I indeed like you taking with you the leftovers! Have you got any recommendation for a cool Sunday brunch restaurant?
Glad to hear it :) We have tons of great food reccs in our London guides: shop.loveandlondon.com
We need your amazing videos and your adorable style
I think for most Americans, the weirdest thing about the Full English is beans for breakfast. But when I got over there and tried it, it actually works. I got hooked.
Yes ❤️ thanks for watching !
The full Monty came from field marshal Montgomery, he had the same thing every morning, hence the full Monty. You need brown sauce on the breakfast as well
Thanks ma'am ..
I am curious about British food.
Thanks for the knowledge.
Thanks for watching!
I'll definitely check these out next time I'm back in London. Jess, you always have the best food recommendations! My husband and I have thoroughly enjoyed everywhere we've gone (all the Afternoon tea recommendations, Palomar, Bageriet, and more).
Ah amazing !! So glad to hear it ❤️❤️❤️ Palomar 😍
very nice dishes Dear Jess.😊😇🥰😍🤗
I wish I could go there and see a friendly city thanks for video
Great video, really high quality images. Appreciate that you show meat options even though you’re vegetarian.
We're glad you enjoyed it, thanks for watching!
My family and I are spending 3 days in London with a day at Wimbledon. I love your content and style and wonder if you have any videos on the Wimbledon tennis event or area? Thank you and keep posting you are my new favorite on You Tube
Thanks Eric! I'm afraid we don't have anything specifically about wimbledon, sorry!
I just ate a full meal an hour ago and now I am hungry again after seeing this 😂 it all looks fantastic. I like the idea of the vegan fish and chips so I might try that sometime, also the guy in the pie and mash place if he put a blond curly wig on could get away with impersonating Roger Daltrey I think 🎤🎵 the pie n mash looked great
This made my tummy growl! I grew up w roast beef every Sunday w all the trimmings and what we call, popovers. I'm seriously so hungry now 😂 Thanks for this video Jess.
Thanks for watching Kate 😘😘😘
Realy nice and useful videos,thank you! It would be even more useful if you mentioned the prices just to make our choice more easy.. :)
I'd like to point out that if you are visiting the UK outside of London when ordering Fish and Chips it's best to ask the pub, restaurant or takeaway (particularly if you're buying from a takeaway) what fish they serve, depending on where you are the fish offering will be different. In the North Plaice is the most popular F&C fish, however in the South West (where I live) Cod is prefered
wow thanks for。sharing
I recognise that Breakfast Club - nice bar in the back... not meant for breakfast though.
Have meant to try this now legendary Dishoom breakfast for a while.
Will now add Poppies to my list of London places to go. Thank you! 👍
Thanks for watching ❤️❤️
Ended up by Spitalfields while wandering around and my friend recommended Poppies. Hands down the best fish and chips I've had.
Nice!
Hey what's up Jess! Damn, you're gonna make me stay in London my whole trip to Europe. I was gonna go to Paris but these food spots are so dope I might just skip Paris and stay in London the whole time! Thank you so much for showcasing these restaurants! These options are so cool and off the beaten path it seems! That's what I like! I mean I plan on doing the Duck and Waffles things an GONG but the tucked away spots is what I'm really into so thank you! Oh and the rotating cheese bar...I'm so there!!😆Thank you for all that you do for us and be well, be safe and Cheers!!!
Thanks Sam! Don't forget we have even more local reccs in our guides: shop.loveandlondon.com
THANK YOU
Love the vegan options! Thank you!
You're so welcome! We have lots of vegan-friendly food recommendations in our London guides if you need more: shop.loveandlondon.com
We have black pudding in Colombia also, present in the shape of a sausage. "Morcilla" is called. And also, some people like it some people hate it.
Yum!!! I so miss the fish & chips and the Bangers & Mash!
❤️❤️❤️❤️
i cant wait to try all this restruranmts next year
Love this! Have been wanting to go to Dishoom for sometime! Which specific location was this one that you went to in this video? Thanks :)
This was carnaby which is my least favourite as for some reason the service is bad here Vs the other ones which have amazing service! Be sure to have a look at our guides for more insider food reccs, digital maps and more: shop.loveandlondon.com
I have been to London frequently since 1965.British food has definitely improved through the years.
Savoy for afternoon tea, book before, not cheap but unforgettable experience including surroundings
Thank you sooo much for including veggie options! I'm really enjoying your videos, they're super fun and they make me want to go to London so bad!
Your energy is contagious and I love how you keep things real.
I would absolutely love to do Spanish subtitles for any of your videos and share your content with my family and friends so they can join in on the fun.
If that's something you'd be interested in, please let me know. It'd be so much fun to do Spanish subtitles for you!
Lots of love from Argentina
Rosie
Thank you ! ❤️❤️
Hi Jess, love your channel! The wifey and I are planning on going to London for my 60th, it's not until next October but I really enjoy the videos! Quick question, what Breakfast Club location are you at? The locations near the hotel where we'll probably stay in Regents Park are smaller, more quaint restaurants. Thanks again!
Canary Wharf! If you'll be Regent's Park, definitely grab our Casual Tourist Guide to North London, it's got all of our top reccs for food and things to do up that way: shop.loveandlondon.com/products/the-casual-tourist-guide-to-north-london
Controversial @11:12 when preparing your scones! Jess uses the Devonian method (cream under the jam) as opposed to the Cornish method (jam under the cream). Royalty prefers the Cornish method (the heir is the Duke of Cornwall, after all!)
My girlfriend and I are visiting London for the first time in a month. Can't wait to eat and drink our way through the city!
Amazing ! Be sure to check out our Casual Tourist Guides for all of my best food reccs: shop.loveandlondon.com
i’ll be in London, Swindon and York in June of ‘23, does anyone know where to find toad in the hole? i looked at several pub online menus but no luck
in Ecuador they make a blood soup called Yahuarlocro and also Caldo de Salchicha which is a soup dedicated to the delicacy that is pork blood sausage
eek! Thanks for watching!
I was passing by this in my feed..wasn't gonna watch it but you presented the video very well. 😂😂😂😂
Hi! this was well done and very informative, but did you pick all of your restaurants based on if they had vegetarian options? Also, did you have a lower price point in mind? We are looking to eat at some pretty amazing iconic places in London… I did write down a couple of these, though! Thank you for all your hard work!
Haha are you not happy if the places have veggie options? I'm confused by what you're asking :) all of our best food reccs at all price points in our itineraries and area guides: shop.loveandlondon.com
💯 she did..
Thanks for all the great videos! May I ask the name of your lovely coat? We’re visiting in April.
It's from a brand called Noize Originals (from canada). It's a vegan and ethically-made company.
Looks yummy!
Thank you very much for this amazing video, nice that you showed veggies options 😁🌱
You're so welcome! ❤️❤️
Your videos have been super helpful as we plan to travel to London in June for the first time. Do you recommend doing the walking tour that covers Westminister & London central that comes with the London pass? Looks like we are already signing up for a hectic trip if we buy the London pass. Your thoughts please. 🙏
Never been on it but I imagine it's quite standard tour with a huge group. We have two tours that go through Westminster that have a different element to them. See them here: tours.loveandlondon.com
@@loveandlondon Thank you!
Good video 😊
I'm loving the attention to vegan and vegetarian options! Thank you!
You're very welcome! I'm veggie so wanted to include everyone ❤️
Yes, same here. Love that you give so many vegetarian and vegan options. Headed to London at end of April and I have listed down all of these.
Heading to London in November :), thanks for all your recommendations, is there any good place you can recommend for Sunday roast in Westminster?
Hmmm not really, a lot of mediocre pubs in that area. Our best pub reccs are found in our Casual Tourist Guides: shop.loveandlondon.com/collections/casual-tourist-guides-to-london
@@loveandlondon hi thank you for your reply. I need you honest opinion. We are about to cancel the trip due to the war in middle east. How do you see the situation there? Thanks
Discovered your channel 2 days before because of my searching for my upcoming trip to london and as a vegetarian couldn't be happier discovering that your are also including veggie options 🤤
So glad to hear it! THanks so much :)
My son lives in Dalston and we ate at the Scolt Head pub. Not on a Sunday, but food was tasty 😋
Your son has good taste 👀👀👀
The one dish I wish I got to try in England was fish and chips, however I don't consume alcohol and many of the restaurants serve it beer-battered. I can say for sure that the full English was my favorite eat on the trip!
Have fish and chips the next time you come to visit, as the batter won't contain any alcohol. When beer or wine is used in cooking the heat of the cooking process destroys the alcohol.
Beer battered isn't alcoholic ! Anytime you cook with alcohol the alcohol dissolves :) thanks for watching!
Most pubs include beer but most takeaways don’t.
@Love and London appreciate the reply! Unfortunately in my religious tradition we are not permitted to use alcohol even while cooking or baking. Regardless, I plan to return to the UK and hunt down the one restaurant in the entire country that doesn't use beer 😅
@@alhomsiyyah eat fish and chips from a take away, they tend to use a water based mix.
Pie and mash with liquor is fantastic.
❤️❤️❤️thanks for watching !
@@loveandlondon You do a very good job on these; your information is spot on.
Enjoyed this, new sub as I just discovered your channel. Binging it, lol. Old hand in Britain, lived there off and on since the early 60's. Been a while due to covid now I'm mobility impaired but I walked London a lot so no worry's, I intend to hold down some Pub stools and Black Cabs mostly, can't do the tube station without lifts. I still do my Brit grub here and know where to eat there (Poppy's is good but not the best, Ill have my F&C and Pie and mash in the East end). Fry up will be E Pellici so I can pretend I'm a Kray boy. 😎 But no Eels! Sunday Roast will be Lamb for me, can't imagine being Vegan in London but I'm old and do respect it. Anyway, enjoying your content and 256k! Cheers!
Hi, thank you for the suggestions! For Sunday Roast, do you mean Lamb Tavern on Leadenhall market?
You need to do a food tour of the UK. Each region has it’s own foods. For instance a Bedfordshire Clanger. Or a Devon v Cornish tea. You need to visit the Balti triangle in Birmingham, and check out our regional cheeses.
This is "Love and London" but maybe one day ;)
Awesome
I absolutely love Dishoom!!!! Quick question! Which Fish & Chips is better???? Poppies or Rock & Sole?????
Personally prefer poppies
Great choices Jess
Been to Dishoom twice and the food is great. However, there are much better Indian/Pakistani restaurants around the UK that are even cheaper and better. But Dishoom is a great place to start for sampling Indian food as a tourist or maybe the restaurants on Brick Lane.
Also been to Poppies as well and they were good too. But obviously the best Fish and Chips are found on the coastal towns
Brick Lane is an experience, but ultimately a con. You can get a better curry pretty much everywhere else. I'm convinced that all the restraunts down Brick Lane open out at the back to one huge kitchen making vats of average food...
@@benzytv I do kind of agree about Brick Lane. There are other Indian/Pakistani food that you can find in areas which are better like Southall, Ilford, East Ham, Forest Gate and on Ealing Road in Wembley. Outside of London, lots of great places in Birmingham, Bradford, Manchester and Leicester
@@LeMagnifiqueDoubleAgent-cj4zo The only reason why I said Brick Lane because tourists may not get the time to go other places and Brick Lane is more or less in Central London. I know the food isn't exactly Indian. I am actually British born and bred of Pakistani heritage and I know authentic Indian/Pakistani food because I have it on a daily basis at home
Oh ...I missed that vegan fish / chips in London !! I wish if you had featured it in your video last year ! I watched tons of your videos before leaving to London last summer ☀️!! Lol. You're so good at this !! 👍👍🇬🇧✈️💜🥁🐉🎤🎶💞
Thanks for watching ! ❤️❤️❤️
Epic British breakfast🤤😀 i am hungry now😂
2:46 this colorful tunnel/walkway. is this new? where is it exactly? my kids will love it
Canary wharf 👍
The Black Pudding is the best thing on the breakfast plate. Nothing controversial about it at all. Good Black Pudding is one of the best foods out there. And popular all over Europe. Spain does a nice version of it.
CONTROVERSIAL
Black puddings not controversial, a little bit of mustard and its beautiful.
Can you do best London breakfast restaurants!
I have lots of amazing breakfast reccs in our itineraries and guides! Shop.loveandlondon.com
Thank you 😮 we are wondering about places to eat near Thistle Arch Hotel in London ?
Our best locally-loved food reccs are in our London guides! shop.loveandlondon.com
Man I miss living in London so much!!!!
ahhh :)
On my first trip to London in 1990, the food was extremely ordinary, with the exception of the full English breakfast, which has always been great. In the early 2000's something improved significantly in the food scene in the UK and food overall is so much better. My 'go to' favourite pub meal is the fish and chips.
Yes It's really improved!
2:40 I used to live in Greenwich(Connecticut). 😂
Yummy Sunday roast!!!❤❤❤❤
:) Thanks for watching!
Yummmy.❤
Very very beatifulll👍👍👏❤️❣️
