About this experience
Enjoy a food tour in one of London's most historic food destinations, with a thousand-year history. This exclusive experience is designed for solo travelers who want more than a walk around a market. With other unattached adults, explore the Borough Market in London. This is an opportunity to find both great food & that someone that sparks your interest. Beginning at the ancient Gothic doorway of Southwark Cathedral, your guide sets the historical stage before leading the group into the market's Victorian ironwork & cobbled lanes. Along the way, five tastings capture the best flavours of the market: from a sizzling chorizo roll to a classic fish butty, topped off with a drink among new acquaintances. By the end, you will have eaten the equivalent of a very diverse lunch, & perhaps found a connection worth keeping. Please note: This tour requires a minimum of 4 participants to operate, barring which, the tour may be canceled (a full refund or alternative date will be offered).

What you'll see and do
One of London's oldest Gothic buildings, Southwark Cathedral has stood beside London Bridge for over a thousand years. Your guide will share the stories woven into its stones — from medieval traders to Shakespeare, who worshipped here — setting the scene for a market that has fed this city for just as long. The cathedral is free to enter and offers a quiet, atmospheric start to the experience before the bustle of the market takes over.

Fish! is one of Borough Market's established seafood destinations in the market's historic surroundings. It offers a distinctly British take on the market's long association with fresh fish. Enjoy a half Fish Finger Butty, featuring crispy fish fingers in a soft bread roll with traditional accompaniments. The relaxed setting gives solo travelers an easy opportunity to introduce themselves and start conversations over a familiar British favorite.
30 minutes here
Tucked into Stoney Street, Kappacasein Dairy is where cheesemaker Bill Oglethorpe has been making raw-milk cheese in Bermondsey since 2008. Kappacasein's raclette is one of Borough Market's signature dishes. The stall is famous for its melted cheese and has become part of the market's food culture. Enjoy a portion of melted London Raclette or Ogleshield scraped over baby new potatoes. It is finished with black pepper and served with cornichons and pickled onions. It is the kind of deeply comforting dish that invites conversation, and connection.
30 minutes here
Brindisa has been the heart of Spanish produce in Borough Market since 1988, and their open-air Chorizo Grill on Stoney Street is one of London's most celebrated street food stops. At this stall, guests will enjoy a half-portion chorizo roll — artisan Riojan chorizo sizzled on the grill, layered with piquillo peppers and rocket in a ciabatta roll. It is a bold, generous mouthful that earns its reputation as one of London's best sandwiches.
30 minutes here
Bread Ahead's glass-fronted bakery on Cathedral Street is where Borough Market's most talked-about doughnuts are baked fresh every morning. Guests will receive one of Bread Ahead's signature filled doughnuts — think vanilla custard or salted caramel — a pillowy, generously filled treat that has become a rite of passage at the market. It is a sweet, unhurried finish to the tour, enjoyed with the market's Victorian ironwork all around.
30 minutes here
The streets surrounding Borough Market reveal how the neighborhood developed around commerce, food and London Bridge. Your guide connects the modern market with its older trading traditions. Finish with a beer tasting at The Market Porter. Guests who do not drink alcohol can choose a non-alcoholic alternative instead. The relaxed pub setting provides a natural final opportunity for conversation and the possibility of continuing the evening together after the tour.

London Iconic Market Food Tour for Singles: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for London.
How much does London Iconic Market Food Tour for Singles cost?
+
Prices start at $31 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in London usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does London Iconic Market Food Tour for Singles take?
+
Plan for about 3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in London is not rushed.
Is London Iconic Market Food Tour for Singles worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 57 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (0/5 across 0 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in London, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule London Iconic Market Food Tour for Singles?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is London Iconic Market Food Tour for Singles suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 18. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 3-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book London Iconic Market Food Tour for Singles?
+
Around 0 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in London can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in London and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does London Iconic Market Food Tour for Singles start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central London within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in London?
+
London's best attractions split cleanly: the museums are free and need no booking, so the paid market is about views, theatre and getting out of the city for a day. That makes value scoring unusually important here, and the Outty Ranking penalises anything charging premium prices for access you could get for nothing. On Outty we rank every London experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include The Great British Rock and Roll Walking Tour, Soho Music & Historic Pubs Tour, London Small Group Tour of Historical Pubs. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit London?
+
May to September for long evenings, December for the Christmas markets. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in London?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
