Tasty and Fun start to your day! - What a great start to our day! Pip was a charming and knowledgeable guide. He was welcoming and engaging and addressed any questions we had. Truly enjoyed all of the stops. The sausage roll and cheese shop were my favorites. The tour had a nice pace, my only suggestion is that instead of splitting, each guest has a whole longboy as they are light and delicious. Would highly recommend this tour. My friend and I had a wonderful (and tasty) time 😉. Thanks Pip!

Definitely worth it! - If you've never visited before, it's definitely worth coming with a guide, someone who will tell you a bit about the history of the area and show you the best stands to try. There's so much going on, you'd probably get lost on your own. Our guide was very approachable and friendly, which made the experience even better. And the sticky toffee pudding was awesome!

Great food tour - Had an amazing time on this tour. Pip was knowledgeable, friendly, and enthusiastic. We tried the most incredible sausage roll to start, and the treats kept coming from there. Great balance of Borough Market and its surroundings. Well worth the time and money.

Delicious and fun morning in and around Borough Market - Great food, great drink, great guide. Our guide Isaac was so personable and fun, that he really made the tour. A bit of local history and stories as well as food history. He had a knack for getting the group to coalesce which made it even more fun. Wonderful day out around Borough Market. I highly recommend it. By the way, there was plenty of food so that we really didn’t need lunch.

Borough market - When we finally had a chance to sit down out of the rain & enjoy tea.
It felt rushed and would have been better if we visited the other stalls - which I did after the tour
