In this guide, we’ll introduce you to the best of the best. You’ll taste Yorkshire pudding in hearty Sunday roasts and sample curries like the humble chicken tikka masala in curry houses across London. And that’s before we even get to the classics like fish and chips and the sweet treats like Eton mess and sticky toffee pudding. It’s safe to say your mealtimes in London will be extremely enjoyable.
1. Sunday Roast with Yorkshire Pudding
A Sunday roast is one of the most classic things you could ever try in London. A Sunday roast is the epitome of British cuisine culture. It’s a meal and a weekly ritual for many families. Historically, it was a meal to be eaten as a large family after church each Sunday. It was also an occasion for those who couldn’t afford to eat meat throughout the week.
The dish itself consists of roasted meat, usually beef or chicken. It comes with mashed or roasted potatoes, brussels sprouts, onion gravy, and a giant Yorkshire pudding.

A Sunday roast is easily one of the most delicious dishes to try in London, especially if you have a savory tooth.
There are thousands of Sunday roast dinner choices across London, especially considering the amount of gastropubs. We’d suggest heading for a Sunday roast at the Harwood Arms in Fulham.
