Going to London next month and honestly THIS is the video that makes me most confident in knowing I can get to explore the most amazing and authentic places of NOW. Thank you guys you're amazing!
@@Callie456 tried the Devonshire for Sunday roast and OOOO-MMMMM-GGGG and had a cocktail at the Connaught - pricey for sure but it’s amazing. Other than this I recommend Seven Dials market (the cheese train was amazing) and finally had dinner at Berner’s Tavern. Wanted to go to HIDE (also featured in their videos) but ran out of days!!
We were in London Dec 23… we found Regency cafe cause it was near our hotel.. just love the vibe of the place, how it operates and their classic English breakfast
I'm officially addicted - the production, the photography, the music, the pace and the lovely casual banter about all things delicious. Very well done - I'm hooked! Come to Charleston SC - the food scene is ridiculous
I didn't get the notification! Noooo! Great to see you lads back hopefully the time in-between videos wont be as long next time! As always love you work lads!
Just got back two days ago from an incredible week in London that was very food and booze focused. Although we didn’t hit any of these places, we did visit: Maison François, Andrew Edmunds, Rita’s, Ginger Pig, Shuk, Quality Chop House, Gymkhana, Noble Rot, Brigadiers, Fez Mangal, Titu, The Drapers Arms, and Fallow. One week, and not a single bite of food that was less than exceptional. The London restaurant scene is firing on all cylinders right now.
You guys are amazing that video was INCREDIBLE! I love how you’re keeping with things clean and simple again! Beautiful images, beautiful presenter , beautiful friendship, beautiful food! That’s it baby, it’s money! 8 years of hustling, you deserve all your success! I know it’s been a long time coming lads, but this is just the beginning of a long and fruitful staircase! ❤
Welcome back, boys ! This is where you belong ! Forget about going solo, or working for The Man ! Can almost taste the wonderful food and beer ! Onwards to 500,000 subscribers ! You can do it !
I've been buying my coffee from The Algerian for twenty years, in person when I lived in London and by post since I moved to the country. I love everything about the shop, especially Marisa's smile, which always makes a dull day a little bit brighter. Long may they reign.
that was cool, thanks! my hot tip is the front bar at The Connaught, particularly in Winter. it's the sort of place where you can sink back into a beautiful armchair all day by the fireplace, having amazing snacks & drinks, and chatting or reading a book. heaps more chilled out & cosy than the fancy martini bar 👍
Like the annoying sibling with their chocolate at Easter, I've been saving this for about as long as I could last. Top shelf video lads, my favourite since Lisbon. The backstories, the chats with the staff, the sequencing - chef's kiss!
Though we've not spoken for many years, Jesse used to be a good friend of mine in secondary school. Back then we knew him as 'the Dealer', as a crippling bout of diarhorrea in the summer of 2005 rendered him lactose intolerant for the majority of his adolescence. This culminated in him still collecting his daily carton of milk from the canteen but, for a price, you could 'buy a sip' from him to increase your own dairy ration. Most lunchtimes I'd follow him to the bike sheds (he called them the milking parlour) where he'd reveal the inside pocket of his blazer, bulging with its concealed creamy goodness. After casting a quick look around to ensure the coast was clear I'd lean into his blazer, pressing my head close to his chest and begin sucking on the plastic straw to get my moneys worth. Once I'd had my fill I'd stand back up, give him a firm handshake (through which the 20p was exchanged) and we'd get on with our respective days. I miss him dearly.
Love your content......watched it religiously for months before my recent trip to London. Fallow was spot on but the one thing I cannot fathom is the hype over Bleeker St. burgers. I went there because of all the mentions on your videos by chefs etc. Totally underwhelmed TBH. As an older guy Canadian who has grown with burgers over decades and had some amazing ones, seriously??? I am pretty sure all my family and friends would agree they could easily do a better burger in their backyard.....sorry. I realize there is some subjectivity on pizzas, burgers, etc but this Bleeker cheeseburger was barely a notch above a quarter pounder with cheese😆
Bleeker is exceptional but you do have to order the double. That way you get the meat flavour which is what bleeker is all about. It is a smash burger. It's the blend of the meat into the cheese and the buns thats so excpetional. FYI I have tried almost all of the notable burgers in London including several from Black Bear Burger (also good though the buns seem weaker than Bleeker) which is in this video. The Canadian guy may be too familiar with grain fed beef to appreciate aged grass-fed. Grain fed meat is a bit like petroleum in taste. I've also had good burgers in Paris, South of France NYC etc and Bleeker rivals them all.
good to see the Algerian, and shout-outs to the soul of another Soho era - Bar Italia, French House, Balans. None are the 'best', but all are a great experience.
Great Show, Good content great photography, And you didn't do a drunk rant at the end. You are more professional when you dont get wasted. Tipsy is ok. Good job.
Those are the exact same first two cocktails that I ever had at The Connaught Bar. My all time favourite, and still one of the best cocktails I’ve ever had (after nearly half of the San Pellegrino World’s 50 Best Bars list), is the Vieux Connaught though.
This is the quality I expect from Topjaw!! Just makes you wanna jump on a plane to London and have a blast..we have actually had a trip where we hit so many of their recommendations!! I have to say I was so disappointed in their last couple of videos especially the one in New York that I almost decided to stop watching…it was so rushed..Jesse seemed bored and anxious to leave so many times..it was hard to watch. Maybe something else was going on but the appreciation and enthusiasm for what they do wasn’t there. Especially if you have watched them for years like I have. Hope they find the mojo they showed in this video again in all their new videos.
We're big fans of Yannick Alleno, this is his first London restaurant and we filmed there a month before they were, rightfully, awarded a Michelin Star. Pavyllon is priced lower than many inferior restaurants and the team there make you feel so, so special. Being able to sit at the huge chefs counter and watch a proper French brigade at work is an absolute privilege in my opinion. 5 course lunch menu for £55... no brainer.
@@topjaw I had lunch there a few weeks ago (solo). High quality as you say with a 'oui chef' vibe. They gave me a tour of the upstairs area after the refurb; nice front of house.

Hmm. No sure about your choice of bakery. I always go to Rinkoff's in Stepney, but the Algerian Coffee Store is the business. I've been buying from them since the '70's: gifts as well as coffee.
Glad you guys are back with the 48hrs series.
I've been watching over the years and I don't understand how the quality of the videos continues to get better. 10/10
Ayyyyy!! Glad to see you back on YT guys ❤
Editing is on point. Fast, fun, engaging. 19mins went by like 9.
It is criminal that you guys are not getting more views. The quality of your videos is amazing! Keep up the great work!
Thank you mate!

Well researched and clearly not just some jolly. Algerian Coffee stores was a good find for me.
We were in London Dec 23… we found Regency cafe cause it was near our hotel.. just love the vibe of the place, how it operates and their classic English breakfast

Quite bonkers isn't it - taken ages to make

100% agree on Black Bear burger call out, its defo my fav burger in London and I've tried them all ;-) P.s love the vid!
Extraordinary editing there lads. Looking amazing. Top list. Gotta do bar Crispin
ha, this finally explains the yt shorts explosion on street interviews, as many others agreed, worth the wait.
Brilliant! But honestly, I’m waiting for the independent movie. Your producer skills are amazing!
good to see the Algerian, and shout-outs to the soul of another Soho era - Bar Italia, French House, Balans. None are the 'best', but all are a great experience.
Amazing, comprehensive video
The Devonshire for a beef Sunday roast is defiantly the one, amazing
Top vid from Top Jaw. But Boy George is not The Cure. Keep up the good work boys!
it's a joke....
@@topjaw Ah. Showing my age then! 😉
Hugh Laurie also isn’t in Coldplay.

Few of my old haunts, love these vids, make more

Love this! Although my list would be totally different! Let’s duel!!!
Big lol at 3.53. Good work editor.
Love Luke Farrel's Plaza Khao Gaeng!
Great vid ❤ And I’ve just realised Jesse’s doppelgänger is actor Rupert Friend 😎
Welcome back guys! We missed you! (is it time for a cocktail?)
The grand return
Loving this. New subscriber, cheers .
That’s great to hear. Thanks
Fire as always!
good stuff fellas; been subbed since 5k and always knew you'd blow up
I really need to spend more time in London. As a northerner I'm supposed to be programmed to hate it but as a foodie my God is it a haven.
Love your guys videos so much!!! Always buzzing to hear the you got new content dropping
Thank you man! Paris next...
@@topjaw amazing!!! Will keep me peepers peeled 💚🙏
bar crispin so underrated great selections of wine too
Great video. Love your content. Also didn't know Boy George was in the cure😉.

Will.i.cam😂 also you guys should totally make a best veggie category
THE BOYS ARE BACK IN TOWN
Very good!! Maybe you can add prices in the next one!
Those are the exact same first two cocktails that I ever had at The Connaught Bar. My all time favourite, and still one of the best cocktails I’ve ever had (after nearly half of the San Pellegrino World’s 50 Best Bars list), is the Vieux Connaught though.
Ah we need to try that!!
@@topjaw, Yes, yes you do. There are so many good cocktails in London, but it’s definitely a good excuse to get back soon

Interested to see Pavyllon on your tour - seems a bit 'left field' - enjoyable video as always.

These are definitely not the best places more like his best mates places 😂
Go on then give us a list, stop the gatekeeping
Greetings: UK restaurant etiquettes amazing.
"Term Bank notes preferred over Paper currency bill and cheque over usual bill while dining"
Restuarant etiquettes too
Feels like having delicious recipe percolating through and through
Right words quite similar to optimum spices rendering a great taste
Usually to sound more elegant and often missed in haste
People refer dining bill to as Cheque
To lift for someone who brings luck
Likewise the term Currency referred to as Bank notes over paper bills
Why not align to the best practice and by all will
On a lighter note with over music chants
To get maximum taste in a restaurant
Wonderful Day
More London 🎉
2:25 omg he said the line ‘bottle of waher’
The Cure didn't have Boy George in it!
But Oasis has Jay from The Inbetweeners in it...?
