Gordon's Wine Bar

See the sights of London through the eyes of a local. When I lived in London I learned which places are worth paying for, what can be seen and photographed from the outside, alternative (cheaper!) skyline views, and the best local pubs and restaurants.

An extra-full guide on where to wine&dine in central London and beyond (no matter the 💷: from low budgets to gold/platinum card holders 😄). And the list is big because…this is the most exhilarating city I have ever visited! I bet you will find your favorites among mine! Highlights: 🫖 English breakfast tea - it is actually a blend of various kinds of black tea; is meant to be had with milk and sugar although it can be served without either. 🥓 Full English Breakfast - this usually includes: bacon, sausages, eggs, baked beans, toast, mushrooms, tomatoes, hash browns and black puddings. 🥧 British Pies - from fish to cheese and onion to minced beef or steak, savory pies are a British tradition that’s been around for centuries. By far, some of the most popular pies are the Shepherd’s Pie/Cottage Pie and the British Mushroom and Chicken Pie. 🐟 Fish & chips - this dish is a must try whilst you are in the UK; no matter where you are, you’ll be able to find a delicious plate of fish and chips.
