A cute place to try the must-have cupcakes, our beloved American pastel cream cakes. This is one of the best stores in London, so don't resist. Especially since it's located on Portobello Road, making it a perfect little stop-off after exploring the famous district. This chain is now widespread throughout the city, but this Notting Hill address was the first to open its doors in 2004. Try their classic red velvet cupcake.

Gourmands, don't miss this London patisserie! In a hushed, candy-pink atmosphere, Martha serves up her delicious creations, cakes and cupcakes of all kinds, with or without icing, with or without cream, but always up to scratch! This family business will surprise you with its simplicity and sweetness, and delight young and old alike. The menu changes according to the season, because the chef only cooks with seasonal ingredients, and always of the highest quality. And if you're really hooked, you can even have it delivered!

It all began over three centuries ago, at this same address where a small candle dealer with the Court opened with a friend a small grocery store. Since then the store has affirmed its reputation, particularly with regard to its food and catering radius. Here you can enjoy the luxury and come above all to find the classics of English gastronomy but also of high-end foreign products. It is a pleasure for the senses, and the store is up to its reputation. Very elegant clientele.

London has two major street markets: Camden and Portobello. Opened in 1837, Portobello owes its reputation to the antique dealers who sell rare and antique objects here that are impossible to find elsewhere. The market is divided into three parts, south on the Notting Hill side, you find antiques with a general clothing market, a bazaar in the streets and, north to the Ladbroke Grove metro, it is the area reserved for flea markets and clothes. Different atmospheres to discover.

It's easy to resist the Ladurée Macaroons by logging in the Covent Garden market. In addition to the macaroons, there are also a good dozen varieties of pastries with refined taste, to take or to enjoy on-site with a cup of tea.

Established in 1886, this is an address that offers tea, coffee and all the objects that go with them: tea caddies, teapots, mugs... And in recent years, it's been chocolate that's been all the rage: chocolate for making fondue, chocolate for breakfast accompanied by little marshmallows. For tourists, the big stars are the tea box in the shape of a bus and the teapot in the shape of a letterbox.

Brixton Market is a vibrant market where you can stroll and immerse yourself in a cosmopolitan atmosphere. It's as much about shopping as it is about eating. Electric Avenue is packed with people, stalls brimming with fruit and vegetables, and meat and fish stalls, but further along Atlantic Road, it's more a place for clothes, costume jewelry and vinyl, with a clear preference for world music, reggae and hip-hop rather than rock and roll. Discover the area and do your shopping.

Here's one of London's markets where you're likely to run into nothing but Londoners! It's perhaps their favorite, at least in the East End. And it's definitely the favorite Saturday activity of the cool, trendy kids in the East, a must-see. We love the uniquely local atmosphere, where everyone meets up with friends for a coffee between two stalls selling local produce. There are over 70 stores and more than 130 stalls during the market. It's also the perfect opportunity to take a stroll through Hackney and discover the district's many trendy boutiques.

As unavoidable as the most popular tourist sites in London! An Ali Baba cave where you can find a multitude of articles combining styles and typical English pieces at affordable prices. It is the ideal place to bring back some delicious scones, marmalade or chutney, and why not the famous (and unloved) pot, and stock up during your stay with fresh produce, sandwiches, salads and ready meals. The days when Marks & Spencer was brooding and saw his customers deserting the stores are over.

Located a stone's throw from Temple Church, this Twinings store was the brand's first to open in 1706. Indeed, Mr. Twinings introduced tea to England right here on The Strand. The store is a marvel of scents and an original idea to enhance your cultural visits. On-site, you can enjoy tea tastings, find original gifts from a vast selection of tea accessories and other typically British gifts, and even take part in a number of masterclasses.

The Japanese Information Center on Piccadilly is a good place to buy Japanese products: sake, beers, noodles, rice, soups, cakes and sweets that Japanese people, as well as tourists, come to buy. There's also a bookshop and travel agency on site. If you're hungry, the Japan Centre also offers a takeaway service. A special place that transports you immediately to Japan without leaving London! Japan Centre has a^2nd address at Westfield Stratford City

For 50 years the same family has managed this small boutique of Greek specialities (feta, olives). Fruit and vegetables come from Cyprus.

The famous bakery Lille with international radiation has several shops in London itself.

The French wine specialist has several London outlets where you can pick up a good bottle of wine or champagne.

Supermarket.

With its candy-pink front, ladies clutching their handbags and delicious cakes, Peggy Porschen's patisserie confirms every stereotype about England and its passion for tea time. This hyper-photogenic venue attracts bloggers and Instagrammers by the dozens, who line up to enter the tiny, adorable, flower-filled room. Even the cups are pink! If the place is a feast for the eyes, it's fortunately also a treat for the taste buds. The cupcakes are as beautiful as they are delicious - try the original champagne one.

Originally, the first "pop-up mall" (a temporary shopping center) was created here in 2012 for a renewable five-year period, using stacked containers to house some 30 small boutiques of independent brands and pop-up stores specializing in fashion, the arts, gastronomy and more. The boutiques change regularly. The Box Park also features several ephemeral cafés offering a diverse range of world cuisine. You can find the same concept at Wembley and Croydon, an original idea!
