Portobello still Alive and Kicking! - We had been on the Bermondsey tour in 2023 so wanted a different experience.
We were not dissapointed either with this tour! Eddie is a very knowledgable guide who mixes history with culinary experience. The shops/stalls we visited were all very welcoming and offered excellent food and drink! Special thanks to Luigi in Franklins who supplied excellent wines and coffee!
Only 1 tour left to experience and we will certainly be on the East End Tour very soon. These tours are a great insight into the areas you visit and with the food and drink supplied are great value for money!

A wonderful day in Notting Hill - My husband and I joined Eddie for a wonderful tour of Notting Hill and Portobello Road market - it was a wonderful experience. Eddie was extremely friendly and easy to talk with. We learned so much about a neighborhood in London we had never had the opportunity to visit before - the food and drink were delicious! We would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting London for the first time or like us a repeat visitor to this amazing city.

A Fun and Tasty Experience - We were 8 friends celebrating a special birthday. We did the Portobello Road Tour with Eddie who was excellent, very friendly and very knowledgeable. He really wanted us to experience and understand the people that live and run businesses in the area. The local food was very tasty and the wine went down well at the end too. We were having such a nice time that we didn't realise we had over run by an hour. Highly recommend this tour.

Fun, friendly, informative, food and wine - We had a wonderful time on this very informative tour. We tried some fabulous food and wine and visited parts of London that we would not have considered without Eddies expert knowledge. I can’t wait to try the next one!

Great Company and Delicious Food - Excellent food walking tour led by Eddie. Great company, very friendly and wonderful food.
Eddie very knowledgeable about Portobello Road area and knows many of the local shopkeepers / store owners.
Food was fab from the Venezuelan tacos, Spanish meat and cheese, delicious home made buns, cookies, chocolates to a well deserved glass of lovely red wine.
Look forward to taking one of the other walking food tours that Eddie takes next time we are in London.
Great way to spend three hours and good value for money.

Superb Day Out - By far one of the best experiences I have had in London to date! Both my partner and I thoroughly enjoyed the tour. It provided a fantastic historical insight into the Portobello Market area, and introduced us to many incredible places to eat! We will definitely be returning to many of the places on the tour and try some of the locations we love added. I could not recommend it more.

Such a fun way to explore London's neighborhoods - I joined Eddie on Walk Eat Talk Eat's Notting Hill tour during a short London stop-over in late September, and I'm so glad I did! Not only was the tour a great way to enjoy some fresh air, get some exercise, and of course eat and drink some delicious things, it was also an excellent opportunity to learn a lot about a neighborhood in London I wasn't familiar with. Eddie was an enthusiastic and engaging guide, the group was fun, and the variety of foods we sampled was impressive, from Venezuelan to Spanish to fancy chocolates.
I'm definitely looking forward to another Walk Eat Talk Eat tour the next time I'm in London!

Drink Walk History and Talk....Great Tour! - The food and drink walking tour was fantastic! It was so much more than just about the food and drink. While that was integral to the tour and certainly delicious, the tour literally included a history lesson of the area. Eddie was very knowledgeable and super informative. We greatly enjoyed our day and I would highly recommend it!

Definitely not the best food tour we have done - Overall, we were disappointed by this tour. The food choices were very minimal, leaning towards sweets, though we did enjoy the Venezuelan meal and the chocolate truffles. More importantly, the time management was poor so we ended up having to stay longer than listed to finish, which made us late to something else. We sat at the gin stop for a really long time because the distillery was having issues printing out order tickets, but the tour guide seemed oblivious to that. Other times, he walked REALLY fast - his pacing was just off. Also, the tour is described as presenting an opportunity to see two different Banksys, but our tour guide forgot the first one and didn’t even know about the second one until I mentioned it. I know he doesn’t normally do the tour that we were on – he does other ones – but it was just overall disappointing as compared to other food tours we have done.
