Picks by Locavore Eats in London

17 places Locavore Eats went to in London — what they said, and what to watch out for.

• Borough Market — Locavore Eats
  Praised for its history dating back to the 12th century and an overwhelming variety of food on offer.
  Heads up: Advises wandering around to grab the free samples.
• The Ginger Pig — Locavore Eats
  The sausage roll was wonderfully thick, and the scotch egg wrapped in sausage meat and fried was a unique, delicious bite.
• Blacklock Shoreditch — Locavore Eats
  Raved about the aged pork, lamb, and beef each served with their own sauce, plus fluffy Yorkshire pudding, potatoes, and vegetables, with unlimited gravy to pour on as much as you like.
  Heads up: Ordered for 3 but the portion looked like it was meant for 4 — the amount of food was massive; the Sunday roast is a Sunday-only menu item.
• Beigel Bake — Locavore Eats
  Raved that the thinly sliced salt beef was incredibly tender and rich, pairing perfectly with the chewy bagel.
  Heads up: Open 24 hours, so you can visit any time.
• Monmouth Coffee Company — Locavore Eats
  The flat white was elite-level, and the canelé was excellent too.
• Humble Crumble — Locavore Eats
  The blackberry crumble topped with crème brûlée was a sweet, tangy, and creamy treat that felt warm and comforting.
• E Pellicci — Locavore Eats
  Called the enormous 'have the lot' fry-up (beans, mushrooms, Cumberland sausage, black pudding, bacon, eggs, tomato, and fried bread) — too much to even fit on the plate — an epic feast, and also praised the cheese-piled bolognese from the Italian menu.
  Heads up: Since it's an Italian-run establishment, recommends ordering pasta alongside the English breakfast.
• Masters Superfish — Locavore Eats
  The contrast between the unbelievably crispy batter and the moist fish was outstanding, and the thick-cut chips plus the complimentary pickles and small shrimp were a nice touch.
  Heads up: The tiger prawns were tasty but the portion was small.
• Mamasons Dirty Ice Cream — Locavore Eats
  The calamansi flavor was so refreshingly tart it made you scrunch your face, the black buko was creamy with perfect coconut flavor, and the cheese ice cream was highly recommended as the best of all.
  Heads up: Mentioned that the calamansi flavor and calamansi ade are quite sour.
• Mother Mash Carnaby — Locavore Eats
  Loved the classic Cumberland sausage and mash with a rich, savory gravy, plus the steak and stout pie and a custard-topped dessert.
  Heads up: If sausages aren't your thing, they also have pies on the menu.
• Horn OK Please — Locavore Eats
  The chana chaat, made with chickpeas and masala sauce topped with onion, chutney, cilantro, pomegranate, and sev, was exactly the burst of color and flavor needed.
  Heads up: A vegetarian Indian food stall.
• Kanada-Ya — Locavore Eats
  Praised the rich, porky tonkotsu broth and good noodles, with a soft-boiled egg well-seasoned in the marinade. Said adding truffle makes it even richer.
  Heads up: The shop is small and popular, so expect a wait during peak hours; it wasn't specified which of the London branches was visited.
• The Salisbury Pub — Locavore Eats
  Praised the breathtakingly beautiful Art Nouveau interior and its history as the site of Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor's second wedding reception, along with its distinctive atmosphere.
  Heads up: Didn't eat here, only had a drink.
• Tea and Tattle — Locavore Eats
  For a reasonable £24 per person, you get a three-tier stand of sandwiches, scones, and cakes — the carrot cake was a particular highlight.
  Heads up: The video description notes this spot is PERMANENTLY CLOSED.
• Punjab Restaurant — Locavore Eats
  Praised the classic-but-reliable butter chicken, the sizzling tandoori chicken served on a hot iron plate, and the addictively fragrant chicken tikka masala, plus a mango lassi that was very thick.
  Heads up: Recommends drizzling yogurt over the tandoori chicken.
• Little Four Seasons (Chinatown) — Locavore Eats
  Famous for its roast meats, the trio of char siu, crispy pork, and roast duck made for the ultimate comfort food, and the black bean sauce chicken was also very tender.
• Greggs — Locavore Eats
  The sausage roll was very crispy and the sausage itself was decent, and the steak bake was also great value as a quick bite.
  Heads up: A UK-wide chain, no specific branch mentioned.
