I have been to London 3 times now but the last two times I was only there for a very short amount of time so I had to make the most of it! These are the places I wouldn't miss!
Borough Market
If you want a variety of options and love markets then this one won't disappoint! There are so many good eats and treats here, from pastries to fresh produce to pasta, I am sure you will find something to enjoy! I really enjoyed Pieminister's food stall, which is a British pie food chain. I got their vegan option and it was amazing! I also loved the cookies I got from The Cinnamon Tree Bakery and the make your own pasta stall La Tua Pasta. See my photos! Just remember its closed on Sundays and is bet for breakfast or lunch or a snack as it closes around 5/6 pm.
Brick Lane
Brick Lane is home to two popular bagel places, Beigel Shop and Beigel Bake, and the unique Cereal Killer Cafe, where you can choose your cereal, milk, toppings or get other cereal themed treats like cereal ice cream. If you want the instagram worthy rainbow bagel that seems to have caused the internet to freak out then go to Beigel Shop. If bagels or cereal aren't your favorite, Brick Lane is also home to other food options you may enjoy!
The Wolseley (High tea!)
Another thing you can't miss in London is high tea! Tea, finger sandwiches, scones, sweets, clotted cream and jam, what more could you want? I absolutely loved the afternoon tea I did at The Wolseley! I would make a reservation because it is very popular and gets very busy.
Harrods Food Hall
Harrods is such a British staple for shopping! Yes it is giant department store where you can get clothes, jewelry and other accessories but it also has a mind blowing food hall! This is beyond your regular grocery store or cafeteria, you could honestly come here just to look around because of how magnificently decorated it is. And of course if you want to deal with slightly pricy food, you won't be disappointed! It has fresh produce, meats, and my favorite, lots of pretty sweets and chocolates and also plenty of tins full of classic shortbread cookies or tea. Harrods also has its own line of well known teddy bears if you want a souvenir!
