Absolutely a must do!! Food was amazing & tour was very laid back and gave us time to explore on our own! Appreciated that we didn’t have to eat standing up the entire time!! Paddy was a great guide-made it feel like we were visiting with a friend not trudging around with “a tour guide “. Definitely recommend!!! Lots of interesting history too!!

We cannot say enough about our experience! Billy (our tour guide) was knowledgeable, kind, thoughtful, entertaining, and overall just a super wonderful human being! We learned a lot about London, had fabulous food and drink, and walked away sad that it was already over!

Overview

Borough Market is one of the oldest and most celebrated food markets in the world, and London Bridge is the historic neighborhood that grew up around it. This is the best food tour in London Bridge, and one of the top-rated things to do in London for food lovers visiting from abroad. Over 3 hours and 6 hand-picked stops, you will explore Borough Market and the London Bridge area with a local guide who knows every address worth knowing. English food has a reputation. This tour aims to change it. From a bacon and egg bap to award-winning fish and chips, artisanal British cheeses paired with ale, cider or honey mead, and a proper sticky toffee pudding, every stop is chosen for quality and the tastings add up to a full meal. There is also a Secret Dish revealed only on the day.
  • One of the best food tours in London, covering Borough Market and London Bridge in 3 hours
  • Taste iconic British classics: fish and chips, sausage rolls, artisanal cheeses, sticky toffee pudding and more
  • Tastings across all stops add up to a generous, satisfying meal
  • Limited to 12 guests maximum, with a private option for groups wanting an exclusive experience

Luke was a pleasant tour guide! He was comical and informative of London and London's food history. We enjoyed our tour. My favorite - fish and chips. My least favorite - ham and egg sandwich (the first tasting).

Got a tour from a King, Tom was super nice and had interesting facts to pair with the delicious food. Me and a friend will be staying in the area, and he gave us good recommendations aside from what we covered on the tour. Would recommend

Response from Host, May 2026

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We're so happy to hear you enjoyed spending the day exploring the city and trying some of the local favorites. We appreciate you joining Secret Food Tours and hope to see you again soon!

One of the best food tours I’ve been on! Very informative and great tastings to try. Luke was a great guide.

Response from Host, May 2026

Thank you for your review! It means a lot to hear that you had such an enjoyable experience and got to discover a few new places along the way. We hope you'll join Secret Food Tours again on a future visit.

Wonderful foodie experience

Herve_K, May 2026
Paddy’s Borough Market Tour was outstanding! We opted for the private tour and what a wonderful experience! We had a “BRILLIANT “ afternoon of walking, learning, eating and drinking!

Response from Host, May 2026

Thank you for taking the time to write this review! We’re glad the experience gave you a memorable and enjoyable way to spend part of your day. We hope to see you again with Secret Food Tours.

Please don’t book the market tour

Alleia_U, May 2026
The tour was disappointing when it came to the food and the information shared. The food was just okay. Went to a little restaurant with cheese, cider, and toffee. This could have been left out as it wasn’t good. I liked 2 foods only out of the five things tried (fish and chips and the sausage). I felt the information provided wasn’t intriguing and our tour guide catered to one individual over others. I have done a few food tours and this overall was my least favourite. I recommend for others to just explore the market on their own versus spending the amount this tour cost.

Response from Host, May 2026

Hi Alleia, thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. Our tours are carefully curated to introduce guests to a range of flavors and local stories that reflect the character and history of the neighborhood, while also creating an engaging and social experience beyond just the food itself. We understand that personal taste plays a big role in how each stop is received, and while many guests enjoy the variety and the balance of food, culture, and storytelling included throughout the experience, we recognize that it may not resonate the same way with everyone. We also appreciate you mentioning the pacing and group dynamic during the tour. Our guides aim to create an inclusive experience for all guests, and feedback like yours is valuable as we continue working to ensure everyone feels equally engaged throughout the experience. We are glad to hear there were still a couple of tastings you enjoyed, and we appreciate your honest thoughts regarding the overall value of the tour. We hope you may consider joining us again in the future in another city or on a different tour style, as many guests who travel with us across multiple locations often find each experience offers something unique.

Wonderful experience

Pamela_P, May 2026
I highly recommend this tour to anyone enjoys delicious bites with an entertaining and knowledgeable guide. Our guide was Gary, he was fun, informative and very welcoming to all in our group. He had lots of back stories to the places we went and the food we were tasting. He made it a positive, interesting and enjoyable adventure. I can’t say enough about how much he enhanced the experience with his relaxed and easy manner. The pace was great for all ages and the food was delicious. Enjoyed every minute!

Much More Than Mushy Peas (though they were good too)!

Elizabeth_R, May 2026
Even though the buses had us running late, we caught up to our group and didn’t miss a thing! We had a great time exploring Borough Market with our guide Luke, and eating SO much delicious food! We also got some history lessons ranging from Charles Dickens to Bridget Jones. On top of that, there were also vegan options available for me that were very good. Highly recommend this tour to start off your stay in London.

Response from Host, May 2026

Hearing that the day left such a positive impression is wonderful for us to read. We always hope guests walk away with more than just full stomachs. Hope to host you again through Secret Food Tours!

A tasty view of London

Chris_G, Apr 2026
I've done many of these tours across the world and they never disappoint. Today's tour was with Paddy, who was a great tour guide by the London Bridge and Market. He is very knowledgeable of the city, restaurants to go to, including the West End, and overall very friendly and enjoyable to speak to. Once again, I have to highly recommend this tour.

Response from Host, Apr 2026

Thank you for sharing this, Chris. We’re glad you had a great time and were able to enjoy everything along the way. We’d love to have you back with Secret Food Tours!

More Shakespeare Less Food

Stacie_W, Apr 2026
Our guide was very knowledgeable about Shakespeare and the theater, which would have been great if it was that kind of tour. We did sample 6 English dishes, and they were all tasty, but it seemed a little too long for the amount of food we got.

Response from Host, Apr 2026

Hi Stacie, thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts. It is great to hear that you found your guide knowledgeable and enjoyed the dishes along the way. Our guides often bring in local history and stories to give added context to the neighborhoods we explore, and for many guests, this combination of culture and food becomes a highlight of the experience. That said, the tour itself is carefully designed to offer a balanced pace, allowing guests to enjoy each stop while discovering different aspects of the local food scene. The selections and portions are thoughtfully curated to showcase variety and quality rather than quantity, which is something many of our guests have appreciated in their feedback. We understand that expectations around pacing and portions can vary, and your perspective is valuable. We hope you might consider joining us again on another tour, where we can provide an experience that better matches what you are looking for.

Billie, and this tour,...

Joan_k, Apr 2026

Great Tour!

Adrienne_L, Apr 2026
Lots of really good food and a great tour of the London Bridge area. Chris was very knowledgeable and a great guide. My only complaint was that he teased us with a “surprise” at the end of the tour that turned out to be doughnut- this was right after we had sticky toffee pudding. Too many sweets in my opinion. I could have used a cup of coffee or tea, or literally anything else.

Response from Host, Apr 2026

Hi Adrienne, thank you for taking the time to share your experience. It is great to hear that you enjoyed the variety of food and that Chris made the area come alive with his knowledge and guidance. We also appreciate your note about the ending. Our tours are thoughtfully curated to showcase a wide range of flavors that reflect the local food scene, and that sometimes includes a mix of savory and sweet to round out the experience. That said, we understand that preferences can vary, and your feedback is helpful as we continue to fine-tune the balance of tastings along the route. We are glad to know you had a great time overall and would love to welcome you again on another tour, perhaps in a different neighborhood, to explore even more of what the city has to offer!

Great walking food tour!...
