If you want to enjoy a curated sampling of the best of Borough and Leadenhall Markets (and beat the crowds, to boot), take this tour. Sue hosted a wonderful tour that offered variety of cultural touch points: from Bridgette Jones and Harry Potter to the ultimate sausage roll to architectural history. This is more than a food tour in the best way possible. Skip breakfast and come hungry!! You’ll try a variety of savory and sweet bites, from traditional favorites to insta-worthy treats. Thank you, Sue and Katie, for a wonderful tour!

Would recommend this tour to anyone interested in going to the Borough Market. What a great way to learn the history, eat around, and see London. Our guide, Sue, was knowledgeable, fun, and a delight. Could have done without the first and last stop as they didn’t feel unique to London. But, they were a nice opportunity to sit and converse as a group. We would have been lost in the market had we not been guided by Sue’s expertise!

This was an excellent tour. The fee included all food/treats and Sue was such a great guide-very knowledgeable and personable.
Tripadvisor customer · Stephanie · May 10, 2026 Excellent
Had such a great time with Sue as our guide on this tour! A great variety of food and the history behind its significance to London. Interesting to learn the background of the markets we visited as well. Only hiccup was the meeting address, google took us to the wrong location so maybe an adjustment could be made to that. Overall, great tour and would do again!

I heard about Walks and Devour Tours on a podcast and decided to book. Superb experience at Burrough Market and beyond! Lovely food choices; excellent historical context throughout, and an altogether delightful tour!

Address is difficult to find. Best to look for Evans bicycle Group was small and intimate. Sophie was a cool tour guide. Though the amount of food st each stop is not huge. Was totally full by end of tour. Highlights. Ginger Pig and succulent strawberries.
