What did Oscar Wilde have for lunch? Who bought their beef tea at Fortnums? Which king took a roast chicken to bed for a nighttime snack (and that’s after 11 courses at dinner). For the answer to these and many other foodie questions – and for a visit to a street market and a foodie look at Chinatown, join Ann’s walk looking at how Londoners dined downtown in the 19th, 20th and 21st centuries.
For the Foodies’ London The West End walk meet Annjust outside the Green Park exit(by the fountain) of Green Park Tube on Saturday October 19th at 10:45am (Within snapping-our-fingers-distance-at-the-Head-Waiter of the Ritz Hotel, of course. And what gourmet dish was invented at the Ritz? Well, come and find out.)
RSVP
And for a second helping, here are the links to the other Foodies London Walks Ann does. Any of Ann’s Foodies London Walks can of course be booked privately.
If you can’t make one of the regularly scheduled, just-turn-up, Foodies' London - The West End it can always be booked as a private tour. If you go private you can have the Foodies' London - The West End walk – or any other London Walk – on a day and at a time that suits your convenience. We’ll tailor it to your requirements. Ring Fiona or Mary on 020 7624 3978 or email us at [email protected] and we’ll set it up and make it happen for you. A private London Walk – they’re good value for an individual or couple and sensational value for a group – makes an ideal group or educational or birthday party or office (team-building) or club outing.
GIVE THE GIFT OF LONDON WALKS
A private London Walk makes a fab gift – be it a birthday or anniversary or Christmas present or whatever. Merchandise schmerchandise (gift wrapped or not) – but giving someone an experience, now that’s special. Memories make us rich.
Had a lovely time with Ann. Really enjoyed hearing stories about some of the places I walk by frequently.

You do not have to be “foodie” to enjoy Ann’s tasty adventure! Really interesting and we get to see some wonderful specialised shops that I did not know existed, and I have lived in London all my life!
I will not forget that wonderful cheese shop in a hurry.
Or, that specialised booze shop that sells cans of “Engine Oil” gin…
This walk will delight everyone!

Anne was the perfect person to guide us on the foodies London walk . A good blend of historical food facts with the buildings that were associated to the food fame and fact ! A lovely way to spend a gentle 2 hours walk building up an appetite .

We enjoyed hearing stories about places we knew about. It was interesting to pop into shops/restaurants we would never have ventured into, particularly The Wolsey. Would recommend the foodies walk.

What a wonderful walk this was. Ann was lovely, very informative, fun and charming company. Lots of interesting things to see and we were very lucky to go into some places that I had passed by many times over the years and never had the chance to peek into. Highly recommend this tour
