London : Local F & B

London's food identity is less a single cuisine than a layered one — British classics sit beside the Bangladeshi, Caribbean, and West African cooking that immigration brought to the city. These three strands sort the choice by what you want: a sit-down plate of something traditional, a drink with local character, or food eaten standing at a market stall. Each points you at a different side of how London actually eats. Travjoy grouped these so you can taste the city by intent rather than guessing at a menu.
