After meeting your guide near Spitalfields, set off on your stroll around the area to learn about east London’s food scene and culinary heritage. Culturally diverse, with London’s largest immigrant population, the east London area has its own distinct cuisine influenced by the different nationalities who live there. Sample a total of ten popular local dishes as you explore; highlights are as described below.

Start with a traditional British breakfast staple – the humble bacon sandwich – at St John Bread and Wine, a meat-specialist restaurant that’s become a local institution. Then, step back in time with a visit to the English Restaurant to sample its legendary bread pudding.

Wander over to Androuet, one of London’s top cheese producers, to sample artisan British cheeses, and then enjoy a leisurely amble north to Poppies – a proper East End chippy— for a portion of fish and chips, wrapped in newspaper.

Head back toward Spitalfields and stroll down Brick Lane, Britain's undisputed curry capital that's home to Indian food shops and curry restaurants galore. Head inside Aladin, your guide’s favorite eatery, and sample Bangladeshi and Indian specialties while learning how curry has become Britain’s national dish. Then, wander into the heart of the East End’s Shoreditch to visit Beigel Bake, one of the most famous bagel shops this side of the Atlantic. Chow down on one of their salted beef bagels, and you’ll quickly realize how they made it onto Time Out London’s ‘100 Best Dishes in London’ list.

Your final visit is to another historical English restaurant where you'll try a salted caramel tart to finish on a sweet-tasting high note! Your tour then finishes in the heart of Shoreditch, near Pizza East.

I had read wonderful reviews of this tour and especially about Lauren, the guide. I was so happy to find out that Lauren was going to be our guide as well, and she did not disappoint. The tour is so much more than food, with a lot of history and culture thrown in. There is a great variety of cuisine to sample; to be sure you do not leave hungry. The east end of London is a slice of London most tourists don't experience, but it really is something that should not be missed.

This was one of the greatest tours we've ever taken. Our guide, Emily Rose, was really great. She was fun and very interesting. All of our group kept raving about our experience with her. We wished she could join us for the rest of our trip. That is how much we enjoyed her great personality. We easily felt her part of our family trip!! The food was great and certainly plenty. It was a great variety from really good restaurants. We even went back to 2 of the restaurants to enjoy the food again. Everyone LOVED the bread and butter pudding!!
