Tom King is the king of London food tours, that is for sure. My daughter and I participated in the Soho food tour and it was an amazing evening. He is super knowledgeable, the food was incredible, and his tips for additional visits and good places to check in on were spot on. I can't praise the King enough- very kind gentleman with a gracious and giving spirit- loved it!
Response from Host, Mar 2026

Had a great time and Anna was a terrific guide, full of energy and charisma! Got to know SoHo intimately with lots of recommendations and stories to mark the way. Be warned for those who don’t drink much or are with kids-This was an alcohol heavy tour, not something that I was aware of prior to arriving to the tour itself so be forewarned and there were no nonalcoholic options available either which was unfortunate.
Response from Host, Sep 2025
Thank you for taking the time to leave your review and for sharing such kind words about Anna. She loves showing guests around Soho, and it’s wonderful to hear you enjoyed her stories and recommendations.
You’ve also raised an important point about the drinks included in this particular tour. Soho’s history is very closely tied to its pub and nightlife culture, which is why tastings here include a stronger focus on alcohol compared to some of our other London tours.
Still, we’re glad that overall you enjoyed the experience with Anna, and we’d love to welcome you on another of our London food tours that highlight a wider variety of tastings with more emphasis on the food itself.
Cindy_C, Sep 2025
Our tour guide Paul far exceeded our tour expectations. His witty and knowledgable narrative of the SoHo district will be hard to match on any other food tour in the future. This is the food tour you must take!
Response from Host, Sep 2025
Thank you for your positive review. Our guides love creating a fun and welcoming atmosphere, and it’s nice to hear you felt that. We’d be glad to host you again with Secret Food Tours!
Elizabeth_P, Sep 2025
Took the Soho food tour on 9/8 with Paul-I think that was his name. I arrived late and missed the beginning. Paul did all he could to catch me up on things. As a native Londoner, he had wonderful stories to share as we walked through the city tasting delicious foods. I would highly recommend the tour with Paul!!
Response from Host, Sep 2025

Anita was a charming guide as she effortlessly led our small group through the streets of SoHo while informing us of local history. We made several stops, as advertised, to sample international foods and gin. Some of the samples were very generous and we ended up not eating dinner that day. It was fun meeting others who were part of the group.
Response from Host, Jun 2025

Highly recommend the tour. Short but sweet tour around Chinatown/SoHo, love Bar Kroketa. Anna is very knowledgeable, and is so helpful with recommendations on where to eat ans visit.

Anita was friendly and informative. She not only talked about the food but also provided local color for the locations on the tour. A high point was the part of the tour on Chinatown. Bustling with people and many many restaurants. The Malaysian beef was a standout (consensus of the group). But if you like Italian the arancini with truffle sauce was to die for. A real sampling of what SoHo has to offer. And if you’re lucky Anita will be your guide.
Response from Host, Apr 2025
Food is such an essential part of travel, and we love sharing these experiences. Looking forward to your next visit in one of our 100+ destinations worldwide!

Great food and a very personable and knowledgeable guide! We had a great time and loved the array of food presented. Our guide (Theo) was so charming and intelligent, it was a great evening out!
Terri_L, Sep 2024
Anita, our guide, was enthusiastic, well prepared, and full of information.. soho was extremely crowded on a Saturday afternoon, she managed us well with the crowds.
cody_d, Sep 2024
We normally hate tours but Tom was hands down one of the best guides we have ever had, the level of knowledge he has on the area, food, history of how it all comes together was worth the price alone. If we ever become uber rich we would like to just have Tom guide us through all our journeys abroad.
Response from Host, Sep 2024
