About Time: You Discovered London's Best Cookie Deliveries
"Floozie Cookie founder, pastry chef Kimberly Lin, has a CV that includes Claridge’s, The Savoy and Dominique Ansel Bakery. She’s made a name for herself with Floozie which specialises in vegan stuffed cookies. Options might include Pecan Pie - butterscotch cookie dough, topped with toasted pecans and stuffed with date caramel."
"How does a vanilla cookie coated with crispy cinnamon cereal, and stuffed with rich speculoos cream sound?. Like something you want in on?. Well it’s your lucky day, because this Covent Garden pop-up turned nationwide cookie delivery service is delivering boxes of its vegan stuffed cookies around the country."
"A soft-and-crisp, pecan-studded butterscotch cookie with a filling of date caramel, it’s creamy in the centre, warming – not sugary sweet – and completely vegan too. 5 James St, London WC2E 8BH. Open for take-away and nationwide delivery."
"You can order online or pick up in store - choose from flavours such as white chocolate and macadamia nuts, peanut butter, coconut, orange and milk chocolate and triple chocolate chunk."
"Bakers Mathew and Andrew met while working in Melbourne and decided to return to London to set up their own business. Chewy Cookie is all about quality, ethically sourced cookies. The doughs are aged for 24 hours before baking (and we can attest to how great they taste)."
"OK, now we know this next suggestion for the best desserts in London, isn’t a restaurant or cafes – but if you’re looking for an amazing dessert on-the-go, then I don’t think you can top Ben’s Cookies for deliciousness and price. Yummy, gooey, tasty cookies that dreams are made of."
"A rapidly expanding American mega chain somehow beats most homegrown burger restaurants in London. One just needs to know what to order, or rather, how to order the trademark Shack Burger. It’s pretty simple (if emulating classic fast food burgers is the goal.) To best complement the beautifully and aggressively griddled American cheese-covered patty, which is sandwiched between a sliced, squidgy Martin’s potato roll, order sliced raw onion and add pickles."
"It’s not just in Mexico and the Middle East that they know how to wrap it up – Kolkati proves that Indian food can bundle it up with the best of them. This Camden Market trader serves kati rolls: flaky paratha flatbreads which are cooked in ghee and rolled up to hold a variety of spiced up ingredients. Fillings include masala chicken and paneer, which come drenched in lashings of coconut and coriander raita, as well as tamarind and date ketchup."
"At Kate de Lord and Jack Hogarth’s ‘kati roll’ stand, all the warmth and spice of fragrant homemade curry gets wrapped up in what’s basically Indian eggy bread – a flaky, soft paratha crisped in ghee and a freshly cracked egg. If you’re looking for a meat-free main, they don’t come more satisfying than its paneer roll; hearty but not heavy, spicy and not spendy. Also, be sure to add some tamarind and date ketchup."
"Have a trawl through the wonders of Borough Market and end up at Tanner & Co, an impossibly charming restaurant and bar offering a warm welcome to all the family. Nothing but the best ingredients go into these hearty, comforting dishes, and there's a tasty (and healthy) children's menu for the little ones. After a long day on your feet with the kids; you've definitely earned one of their signature Bermondsey Street Bootleg cocktails."
"Styled like a vintage school gymnasium (complete with ropes and wooden pommel horses), Tanner & Co is one of Bermondsey's quirkier spots. And while the inside is a feast for the eyes, the outdoor terrace is also not to be missed - adorned with pretty festoon lighting and colourful furnishings."
"One of Latin America’s most popular desserts, dulce de leche (£6), is given the Señor Ceviche treatment and believe us when we say that you’re going to want a taste. Taking a blow torch to the creamy sweetened milk concoction, the team here have created a light and silky pudding that features a crystalised layer and is finished off with a side of shiso and pineapple granita. You don't know crème brûlée until you've tried this bad boy."
"Senor Ceviche offers its guests a unique seafood dining experience from its home on Carnaby Street. Delve into a menu of South American delicacies including signature ceviche, smoky BBQ'd treats, pisco-laced cocktails and chilled Peruvian beers with a funky latin soundtrack."
"Based on the district of Lima, Señor Ceviche's open plan kitchen serves up unique Peruvian food in a vibrant environment."
"The Lyndhurst can be found just on the outskirts of town, and I have it on good authority that it is a popular haunt of the hospital staff based around the corner. It’s no surprise, what with the great selection of beers and wines, and the intimate old school decor. The menu also has something to suit all tastes, including plenty of vegetarian dishes."
"The Lyndhurst closed down in March, only to be reopened in July under new ownership. Chef and restaurateur Sheldon Fernandes announced plans to source foods locally in a new era for the pub. The Lyndhurst has a varied menu offering everything from gourmet burgers and fresh fish to pies and traditional roast dinners."
"A few of the family favourites but lots of more elegant dishes that require a bit more skill to prepare. And they are prepared very well with real finesse. Don’t let the humble surroundings fool you."
"Sometimes a visit to such a quintessentially British town as Windsor causes a hankering for a meal that’s unapologetically not British (don’t ask us why). If that’s the case, you want to check out Bluegrass BBQ – an American restaurant committed to smoking meat properly. Open morning, noon and night, it’s a great spot for a calorific fix."
"Sometimes restaurants near Windsor Castle can come off as a bit uptight, but never fear because barbeque is here. Nestled beneath a chocolate brown wooden façade on the corner of Castle Hill and Market Street, it’s a little slice of the American South in the heart of England. The interior is all intimate booths and window-side seating."
"Located in Brixton and Shoreditch, Halo Burger has made a name for itself using Beyond Burger patties to create a vast range of irresistible vegan burgers. On the menu, you can find the epic Halo Burger with 2 Beyond patties, 2 slices of cheese, caramelised onion, lettuce, tomato, gherkins and signature sauce. Other notable mentions include the Smoky Carolina BBQ Burger, and The Flameburger which is definitely not for the faint-hearted!"
"Popular plant-based burger bar Halo Burger (currently in Pop Brixton) have opened their second restaurant in Shoreditch and they're the first in the country to be launching with Beyond Meat's 4.0 patty."
"HammersmithOK, so Brewdog SheBu isn’t technically a brewery. Its house beers are made off-site – in Ellon in Aberdeenshire and Tower Bridge – but have always been top-notch and trailblazing, so we’re sneaking it in anyway. Taste your way around 40 taps (though maybe not all in one night), plus guest beers: just ask for a flight."
