Central London's top 10 budget restaurants | Travel. Daddy Donkey, Holborn Stalls, vans, mobile trailers: in the last 18 months, London's street food scene has exploded. A new wave of "mobilers" have rolled into town, parked up, and started to offer high-quality takeaway food at highly competitive prices. Such is the current interest that there is even a subset of rival London burrito slingers, including Daddy Donkey, Luardos and Freebird Burritos.
For now Daddy Donkey remains the, erm, daddy, so popular that it needs barriers to manage the queue during the lunchtime rush. How many street market mobilers can say that? Malletti, Soho and Clerkenwell There are two reasons to love Malletti. Yalla Yalla, Soho and Oxford Street You might imagine that modern day Soho is a neutered, vanilla shadow of its once seedy self.
Bea's of Bloomsbury, Bloomsbury and St Paul's It is easy to see why Bea's is so popular. Princi, Soho The Harp, Covent Garden Mooli's, Soho "F*ck the chicken tikka," runs the provocative slogan painted on the wall in the toilet. West London's top 10 budget restaurants | Travel. Hereford Road Restaurant, Notting Hill As you would expect from a graduate of Fergus Henderson's St John, chef-owner Tom Pemberton specialises in common-sense cooking. His kitchen works diligently to extract maximum flavour from often neglected ingredients (skirt steak, mutton, mackerel etc) and Pemberton tries to keep the prices down accordingly. At £13, the two-course set lunch is excellent value, but with this feature's self-imposed £10-a-head price limit in mind, the express lunch (£9.50 for a daily changing no-choice main course, a glass of wine and coffee) is an absolute steal.
A sample plate of lentils and roasted quail was great. Orange Pekoe, Barnes Barnes feels less like London than Henley-on-Thames or some similarly sedate corner of Oxfordshire. Elsewhere, the daytime menu runs the tarts-salads-sandwiches gamut, with everything from breads to pies made from scratch on site. Santa Maria Pizzeria, Ealing Naturally, this Neapolitan-owned pizzeria has a wood-fired pizza oven.
South London's top 10 budget eats | Travel. Borough Market, Southwark Unlike Paris (Rungis) or Barcelona (La Boqueria), London doesn't have a market that exists as a living celebration of this country's indigenous foods. Instead, it has Borough, a self-conscious, some might say sanitised, by-product of Britain's recent rediscovery of good food – as a minority hobby, at least. Drawing together some of the country's best artisan producers and fine food retailers, the market is at its liveliest from Thursday to Saturday, when all its stalls are open and eagerly press free samples on the passing public.
After a couple of circuits, a budget traveller could stave off their hunger without spending a thing. However, the market is also home to a number of permanent businesses which - particularly if you want to escape the tourist hell of nearby London Bridge - are a boon for the food-conscious but financially cautious traveller.
