About Love and London:
I'm Jess, I've lived in London for many years, and this channel is a London travel guide for anyone visiting the city that wants to experience it like you live here. Beyond talking about the usual London attractions, I show you some of the cooler things to do in London, that most travel guides don't mention. Watch my videos and you'll feel like you've got a Londoner friend telling you the best kept secrets in the city.
Mentioned in the video:
Bageriet (Covent Garden)
St. John Bakery (Neal's Yard)
Hackney Gelato (Seven Dials Market)
Cafe de Nata (Soho, Hammersmith, Kensington)
Crumbs and Doilies (Soho)
Cutter and Squidge (Soho)
Naked Dough (Camden Market)
Mamason's Dirty Ice Cream (Camden and Soho)
Baker here! Just wanted to let you know the donut was fried not baked! It's actually the other way around where fried donuts are airy and light and baked donuts tend to be more cakey and dense!
I was there for my birthday a week ago and I fell in LOVE! I never felt so much at home I never wanted to leave. I recommend tourists to ditch the touristy fancy restaurants and go support local family owned businesses plus the food taste way better.
I'm from Kensington and Chelsea in London originally.
You're absolutely correct.
I always pop in crumbs and dollies when I'm in London,reminds me when I use to deliver cakes around England and Wales.
They are the best!
Can you just get a slice of cake?
My blood sugar reading has just gone sky-high. Just watching this! Thank you for letting my eyes and stomach live vicariously through this video... LOL!🍩🍮🍰🍨🍫🍭🍧🍬🍴☕😳😁😀
Love your Channel and appreciate all the tips and information you give us!
Haha thanks for watching Renee!
Just added London to my 2021 trip since my European vacation was cancelled this year! I’m neurotic and research tons before I travel. Your videos are so helpful! Thank you!
Well you've got over 200 videos on this channel to watch for your research, so enjoy ;)
The "Naked Dough" appeared on a really cool show on netflix about restaurants in Manchester. If I'm not mistaken the series is: A million pound menu
Ahh no way! That's cool. Haven't watched that show.
Love this kind of videos. Will be in London next month so I start planning and dreaming about this vacation with your videos.
Nice!! You'll have a great time. Also have a look at my shop for my digital travel guides, they're super helpful: shop.loveandlondon.com/
Love that you always bring tupperwares with you, no waste!
Absolutely!
This is perfect as I'll be staying in soho when I visit! Great video!
Thanks!
Jess, I love your videos! We’re in London often but not as often as I would like.
Your videos give me a little fill of London that I miss when I’m not there! Thank you! Keep doing it well! ❤️
Oh and Cafe de Nata 🤯😍
Aw thank you so much Nicole
You have put in lot of effort for this content that is useful and detailed and informative. Many thanks. Regards from Gwenn Gomes all the way from Goa India
I needed this, thank you!
You're welcome!
love this video
thanks for sharing
I am going to London for the first time this May and I have binged so many of your videos, but this one may be my favorite! I work at a bakery in the USA and looking at this made me think WOW, I have to try everything... twice!!!
Glad you enjoyed it Erin ❤️❤️
such a nice video, omg you made me miss London!!!!
Awww :)
Thanks for your videos! I am visiting London for the 1st time in August.
Thanks for watching Dharamveer!!
Beautifully shot. Great work.
Thanks for watching!
Such great selections! I didn’t realize there was a cookie dough shop in London. Sounds amazing!
Thanks Julie!
Can’t wait to see London ‘this year💕
Yay!
Well that isnt fucking happening is it
@@LolcatsFtw bruh London isnt that great either
innit mate. greetings from Vancouver, Canada. 1st time checking out your channel, will be tuning in :)
We’re visiting tomorrow and love the idea of some/most of these 👍👍
Thanks for watching!
So amazing!
Loved the man walking behind you with the kart haha. Taking notes for my next trip to London! Cheers!
Fab!
looks good!😋
Thanks for the recommendations! 🍩
Thanks for watching Laurie!
Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching Charlene!
Please don't get the wrong idea here but as a swede I can confidently say we do not pronounce bageriet that way! It's just the Swedish word for bakery. Regardless of how much this mispronounciation made me giggle I really appreciate the video containing both Swedish and Filipino food culture, since I'm half Filipino myself! Maybe I can finally get to try some Filipino flavors when I come visit next week? 🍦💕
Lol well I'm not swedish so!
Thanks, really helpful to see these :)
Thanks for watching!
Update, we spent far too long at the Soho branch of Cafe Nato - simply amazing find and many thanks, we loved them. They were interested when I told them that it was thanks to your CZcams channel that we found them.
Glad you enjoyed :)
Our favourite one was mamasons - perfect to try philipino dessert
Hi Jess, that was brilliant, they looked absolutely delicious, I just hope you didn't eat all of those in one day, if you did well done. I hope you walked between them. Great fun. Must go I'm ravenous I have to find something to eat. Looking forward to your next video soon.
My favourite ice cream is pistachio gelato from GROM in Piccadilly
The hot chocolate from Bageriet is really good! At Christmas time they put warming spices in it too 😍
Lovely!!
Everything looked delish! That donut is definitely fried 🥰🥰 adding St. John Bakery to my Itinerary
Fab! If you have the 3-Day London Itinerary it's in Day 2 :)
And the factory bakery is in day 1!
@@loveandlondon i did purchase your itinerary so happy that i don't have to plan out my trip.
Love Mamason’s Bilog and their Halo-Halo!
mmmm yummy indeed
Oh. My. God. Beats my usual mint Aero bar any day. Now I know where to go when I come back this year! Great video as always, thanks!
haha! thanks so much!
I haven't had a mint aero in 20 years.
Yum! UBE! I'll have to check it out next time I'm there... hopefully next year!
yay!
Can't wait to come to London next summer I'm gonna have a great time there 🙂
Yes you are! :D
Those desserts look like they taste amazing
Yes! Thanks for watching.
I wish I'd discovered your channel earlier. I've walked past all of these places without ever knowing they were there. My wife and I are going to stop at each of them on our next trip. Thank you!
Awesome! You won't miss ANYTHING good like this if you grab our Casual Tourist Guides! Maps included: shop.loveandlondon.com/collections/casual-tourist-guides-to-london
I'm English but haven't lived there for about 10 years. I'm amazed at whats available nowadays.. Migration has some benefits!
Being an old chef I know doughnuts are deep fried... Living down in the south of Spain we're denied fresh cream. I remember chocolate eclairs, which is a choux bun filled with unsweetened whipped cream and topped with chocolate. If you visit the UK you've one of these... Love the video. It reminds us brits the lovely things on our doorstep...
Thank you for this posting. I have a sweet tooth when it comes to desserts. I would love to visit London one day😀♥️🇬🇧
Thanks for watching Heather! :)
just new in UK and I can't wait to try all of the pastries and desserts!!
Enjoy!
Need to go and taste that ice cream in pandesal by mommason looks so yummy !!!!!! Pilipino desserts are very and truly delicious!!! The ube yum! And halo halo too
I wish you'd do an updated video on bakeries/sweets.
This is still quite relevant! And we have updated recommendations for EVERYTHING in London in our guides: shop.loveandlondon.com/
We are going in May. I research things to death but forgot about sweets! Thanks for reminding me ... my husband is a sweet-treat addict. Love your videos
HAha well happy I could help! Thanks Terri
Jess, it takes me 30 to 40min to finish your videos! Every tip I pause your video, save on TripAdvisor, research walking distance, etc! Your expertise is very appreciated 😁

You're so welcome! Thanks for watching Maria!
Wow Jess thanks! I been living just next to the mamasons for more than a year and half, still didn't try it. Will do it soon thou😊
Mmmmm enjoy!
It would be great to see a video on the Top places for Breakfast in London!
I'll add it to the list!
I'll be staying in Hackney on my next trip so I'll definitely be checking out the gelato, interested to see if it's as good as Ferrara's in NYC.
Enjoy
Loved those sweet treats! Could you please make a video on some really good vegetarian or Indian restaurants in London?
Hey! I already have a vegetarian video: czcams.com/video/yHdk-QDiB3I/video.html&t and I have a ton of veggie-friendly options plus some great Indian options in the 3-Day London Itinerary: loveandlondon.com/3-day-london-itinerary
Just tried the Santa Nata at covent garden...a m a z i n g 🔝
Hi Jess thank you so much for your useful videos. Could you make a video about restaurants and bakeries who offer gluten and dairy free food. Love from Egypt ❤❤❤❤
Thank you Amal! I have a video about vegan food spots (including donuts!) for you already: czcams.com/video/DwAPm2UtLAw/video.html&t Also in my 3-Day London Itinerary, I've marked off which food spots are GF-friendly and vegan friendly : loveandlondon.com/3-day-london-itinerary
Donuts are life lol @love and london
Nom, nom, nom!!! I can imagine how much fun you had doing this vlog. . I can only imagine what it would do o the blood sugar levels hehw. Another great video buddy.
Thanks for watching Dean
Thanks for the recommendation. In Mamasons as we speak, eating Bilog.

Thank you for featuring Mamasons. I am a Filipino😊
Ah very cool Mitch!

OMG yes I was lol! Thanks for watching Liz
Crumbs and doilies! I follow cupcake Jemma!
nice!!
I'm just wondering if sunlight is ever there in London. For how many months its there?
Yes ube (purple yam) is delicious! Mamason's Dirty Ice Cream should open a location in San Diego!
:):)
I liked this video the second that I saw that you brought your own Tupperware. 😅 💛
Hahahah thanks Aileen! Couldn't let all of that goodness go to waste!
Yum Yum...
That crunch 5:34 love me some pastel de Belém (or pastel de nata)
Mmmm
I love Bread Ahead doughnuts at Borough Market
Yeah! They're good too!
Chin Chin Labs is a good place for ice cream, and Peggy Porschen for sweet desserts like cake and cupcakes
Not a fan of Peggy but yes Chin Chin labs!
Hello 👋🏻, I have a layover in London in March for 17 hours arriving around 4 and leaving 9 am the next day. I really want to see Big Ben and anything around there. But I am stressing on how to get there. Do you have any advice? I was thinking of taking the Express train but then I don’t know how to get to central London.
Use Google Maps to figure it out
Looking at this in February 2023 and seeing your post is 3 years ago, so regarding March 2020… did you make it to London before lockdown?!
Crosstown Donuts! And Cronuts are way too sweet but DKA’s at the same bakery are awesome.
Yes I love crosstown's vegan ones!
What about Greggs and Marks and Spencer sweet treats ? Such as Yum yums and jam doughnuts !
Hmmm they aren't as good as the freshly made things as mentioned in this video. I also try to encourage everyone to visit and support small businesses :)
Hey, I am going to Uk Soon, could you drop some hints about the prices ?
Watch my how to budget video for some help: czcams.com/video/j59AG3hcUGI/video.html&t
@@loveandlondon Thanks, for sharing with us
Your so cool Jess x
Am coming to London next Thursday with my daughter Jess. She is 18. You want to meet for lunch . Rob
if i ever get able to afford to i'll try them out
You are definitely a Londoner …..best city in the world
It's pretty damn great
I'm definitely saving these on my Google Maps just in case I ever get the chance to visit this beautiful city.
Some are a part of the 3-Day London Itinerary, which includes a digital map for your phone: loveandlondon.com/3-day-london-itinerary
I'll taste the filipino dessert, it seems delicious 😋
It really is :) thanks for watching Bety!
Ice cream in February, you really do like your treats! That must have been some sugar rush, you have to work out to keep that slim eating all that! By the way the Tupperware was to make us think you didn't eat all of the food, we know the truth ;). Love your vids even though I am a local.
Hahah I did actually bring them home and I had some very happy housemates :)
Argh. We’ve seen all the museums and landmarks twice so it looks like our two weeks in London this Spring will be spent on a sugar high. Thank you???
haha you're welcomeeeeeeee
I had ube ice cream when I was in the Philippines and it was delicious. I wonder if that shop does halo halo, really recommend it for a hot summer's day.
I think it might but I can't be sure!
Lovely sweety
lovely vlog. did u actually eat more than two bites on each thing? 😂🤦🏻♀️ would have been nice to see inside each bakery
I didn't, but I brought it all home and ate the leftovers lol! yeah it can be hard to film inside sometimes so we can't always do it but we try!
From a different channel and on another video I hear that British bread is really good, better than the bread in the States. Is this true?
Not sure, I never bought fresh bread in the US, I sometimes do here.
Filipino here. Don't care much for ube. LOL Love pandesal though.
How about the prices of the items that you bought
Best to ignore prices in London. You’d never eat anything if you worried about the price!
Oh I felt for you... that was getting very cloying. One yummy treat a day is probably the limit for most people :).
haha yes! Thanks Karl
These types of "donuts" are actually Bolas de Berlim a typical portuguese sweet just like Pastel de Nata
Dam u had me eating that Danish pastry - the crunching sound - def gonna go there this years visit ( I go to london every year as from there ) love your positivity on london .
Nom nom enjoy ;)
10:23 Pure savagery! Like a true London dessert-warrior, Jess sports the confectionary blood of her foes as a warning to future treats that they better be good.
Only way to do it, so good.
Thanks for watching!
We diabetics are envious.
I love your stuff Jess but I was hoping that you wouldn't notice Bageriet I love that shop eevn if it is responsible for quite a few inches on my waistline over the years. Al joking asside anyone looking to visit The Smoke should watch Jess she is 100% right IHO and I have lived and or worked in London for over 30 years XXX
haha thanks Sean!!
Will you pls mind , there are many diabetics watching this , try to balance your reel with some sugar free dlights as well.
Probably not one for our "sweet treats" videos but we recommend tons of non-sweets across our videos!
Does she not like eating? Lol after one bite she was full? Girl I would be eating everything honey oh lord
I ate like 10 sweets in 4 hours!!
What? They don’t have any pie in London?
I didn't cover every single sweet in London! Lol. But pies here are mostly savoury, eaten as lunch or dinner.
You might enjoy A Pie Party weekends. at Victoria Park Market. Try the whiskey pecan or biscoff pie. Now I’m hungry!
too bad i dont eat sweet.....but coffeee
Ugh!!! I shouldn't be watching this lol 😋🍰🍩🧁
Hahahahhaha ;)
