He was a knowledgeable guide and brought our attention to many non-food things during the tour. The food stops were diverse and outstanding with a sampling of many ethnicities. We were stuffed at the end and would definitely recommend this tour to anyone. Thanks again Fergus and good luck in your future endeavours. Joanne & Kim - Vancouver Island, BC”

“This was not really very much in the market. Our guide spent much of the time in the alleys and streets outside the market. The food sampling was not the best. Fish and chips were greasy and tasteless. Cheese was offered ina block and each of us with bare hands broke pieces off standing one the side walk. No interaction with cheese monger. Other tastings were also marginal. Not worthym the cost.”

“I have taken food tours all over the world but David made this, hands down, the best tour I’ve ever taken. Not only was he a wealth of history of the area and Borough Market, but his great relationships with the vendors opened this tour up to really get a chance to get to know them. I bough some really fun things to take back with me and tried lots of great foods. I have never liked blue cheese, but he changed my mind. I highly recommend David and Chubby Fellow tours.”

The group is limited to eight, with vegetarian, gluten-free, and dairy-free options available, but the tour is not suitable for vegans.

“It was terrific! Obi is phenomenal tour guide, his own history and knowledge of Brixton and London is impressive. His food tour structure is perfect, starting with leveling teaching you about Brixton's history to ensure the tour makes sense, then a guide through the market getting appetizers and ending with a delightful seated meal allowing the group to get to know each other. He's one with the community and knows the local shops. He's introduced us to small business owners throughout the tour allowing us to purchase other items outside the food tour. I will be returning for a follow up tour next time I'm in London!”
