Louis Patisserie
One of London's oldest coffee and cake shops, Louis Patisserie was started by Hungarian immigrant Louis Permayer in 1963 and it hasn't changed a bit since. Eclairs, almond pretzels, marzipan cookies, cream slices and macaroons wink at you from the window, and they're packed in a pretty striped box for you to take away. You can also sit down in the breathtaking little tearoom, best on Sundays when Hampstead's old-skool Eastern European ladies and gentlemen come here for coffee and cake.

Fish Shop
Trailblazing chef Rowley Leigh has flown the coop, leaving Kensington Place in the hands of the successors to the Conran chain. But that’s not such a bad thing for the budget-conscious, with identically priced set meals served at lunch and dinner. The impressive glass frontage, design-driven interior and attached Fish Shop, which is always helpful for inspiration, remain in place.

Verde's
It's all about slow food and quality ingredients these days, and novelist Jeanette Winterson joined the ranks some years ago with this stylish, olde-worlde deli on the ground floor of her listed London home. The atmosphere is rustic and broody and the food delicious. Don't expect to find her serving behind the counter, though.
