BRITISH FOOD TOUR in LONDON | Best BRITISH FOOD | Sunday Roast, Fish and Chips, Pies | English food

Massive thanks to Calum Franklin and his team for welcoming us into The Pie Room and for treating us to their sensational pork pie and Scotch egg and a huge thanks to Oisín Rogers and his team from The Guinea Grill for the tour of their cellar and for the thirst quenching pints!

We're in London, England! In this 3 part series we're hunting down the best British food in England's capital. We take you on a huge British food tour of traditional British food from Sunday Roast and fish and chips to pies and Scotch eggs.

This is our second video from London and it's all about the best British food. British food often gets a bad rap for being bland and unexciting. Nothing could be further from the truth! You just have to know where to find good British food in London. Luckily, we've done the hard yards for you.

We start at The Pie Room created by Executive Head Chef Calum Franklin. Calum has created a space devoted to perfecting the art of one of Britain's most historical and beloved foods- the pie. We sample the hot pork pie and his award winning Scotch egg- both are incredible. Next up it's a feast of classic fish and chips from a family run, old school fish and chippery in Westminster. We eat battered cod and chips doused in malt vinegar in the park. Then it's off to The Guinea Grill- one of England's most historic pubs for a couple of pints before we settle in for a Sunday roast of epic proportions at Blacklock- known for roasting their meat over open flames.

We hope you enjoyed this British food video, thanks for watching! #britishfood #londonfood #englishfood

We’re Thomas and Sheena, food and travel fiends. We travel full time, hunting for the BEST local food in the world to showcase via our YouTube videos. Food is a window into a country's culture and one of the most exciting ways to get to know a place.

We're all about eating what and where the locals eat. You won't find food that's been created merely to be social media worthy on here- no rainbow bagels, gold leaf soft serves- just genuine, authentic food that tastes incredible.

From street food to mom and pop restaurants, we want to show you the best and most authentic food we find on our travels.

What did you think of The Pie Room guys?! Wicked right?! I had to do my piece to camera about 5 times- I was so excited I literally couldn’t speak 😝 If you enjoyed this video we’d really appreciate you hitting that thumbs up button and don’t forget to subscribe for more content! 😘 S & T x

[bassklinic]

Usually hate the annoying people who do these videos and get the "traditional" dishes all wrong. This was amazing, really well filmed.and 2 very engaging passionate people . Enjoyed very much . Keep it up guys

[Lightworkps]

Now this is a proper London food tour. The other big youtubers didn’t do london like you did. I’m glad you showed what great food we have & the best spots👍🏽

[WAYAWAYWithAsh]

I swear I just watched a main stream food channel show!! Guys, you’re amazing at what you do! Success is just around the corner. ❤️Ash

[lisastygall]

Well done for finding a proper pork pie and scotch egg. The generic ones are ok, but when done properly they are wonderful!

[Enoxix.]

This is another great series from you Thomas and Sheena! Not alot of vloggers have done a series about British food, so I'm looking foward to the next episode!

[spendover]

I have to say that is the best roast I've seen outside of the home... everything looked cooked to perfection.
£54 is expensive but as a Yorkshireman I'd pay that 👍

[llivingtoday]

Commonly, Yorkshire puds were served with gravy before the main meal in households where resources were very limited and a little meat had to go a long way. They were also served afterwards and at other times with jam to fill up on.

What a fantastic London food series ! You folks did superlative job by going in depth of London's best and traditional British food. Very few bloggers actually take the time to present the food and not a slew of "trendy" restaurants.
I would like add a bit of information. Pies go back further than the 1600's to Medieval England. " Hote Pyes" we're very common back then.
Again excellent outstanding blog from two great people !

[tonybennett]

I remember that pub in 1960s, there used to be a famous club, the Revolution, in the corner in those days

[Jantimes]

I’m a Filipino-American in Los Angeles who is OBSESSED with a British Sunday Roast. Especially a Yorkshire pudding.

[copferthat]

Soggy chips? Food of the gods and they're how chippy chips should be.

[BrendaBenoit]

A beautiful, beautiful video of London - brings back so many memories of when I was there. Those pies looked magnificent. The pies, the scotch egg, the roasts...all looked divine.

[balochistanitechsupport]

english food is so v.under rated !!!! thank u 2 ' most engaging and sincere vloggers on the tube : )

[gerontiusable]

Enjoyed the video, us Brits do love our Fish & Chips so much so that during the 2nd world war it was one of the few foods not rationed as the Government of the time thought that it would be bad for morale.

[tiwitime]

Can't stop watching your videos, amazing!

[martinm]

I’ve just discovered your channel. It’s great!

[tosht]

Woohoo. I like to be surprised of course but I really really love the classics. All my favorites today.
*_pie and Scotch egg_* - Had a couple of pies in London and my favorite was a fish pie but loved Sheena's description of the pork. 😀👍
*_fish and chips_* - Ate fish and chips from a proper chippie and a pub...loved both. Next time I'm in London I swear I'm going to visit The Laughing Halibut due to that gent waving goodbye @9:05. So fun. Kudos for filming.
*_Sunday roast_* - I was fortunate that my first visit to London included a Sunday so I got to experience Sunday roast...albeit it was at the hotel lounge. Loved it nonetheless.
*_Yorkshire pudding_* - When my friends ask me to describe Yorkshire pudding I initially say it's a savory Dutch Baby (delicious slightly obscure breakfast treat in the U.S.) to which they usually respond "what's a Dutch Baby?" 😂
Fantastic day, guys! 👍

Very professional and good music makes your videos stand out from the crowd.

Have you guys been to Maltby St Market? Pretty good alternative to Borough mkt...
