Food on a London bus normally means
a particularly smelly bag of crisps. Not on
B Bakery’s tours, which combine the British
institutions of high tea and double-deckers for
1½-hour Routemaster trundles past sights
including Nelson’s Column and Marble Arch
(from £45pp; london.b-bakery.com). Spend the
rest of your weekend enjoying London’s newest
food tradition: the gourmet market. Skip
obvious Borough and go for Brockley’s artisan
breads, cheeses and charcuterie(Sat 10am–2pm;
brockleymarket.com); or Flat Iron Square’s
upmarket world food, from Scandi pancakes to
