- Viral Leeds bakery Get Baked is popping up at Fortnum's
Leeds bakery Get Baked makes a cake so viral that mere minutes after sales go live on their website every slice is gone in a flash. Now, Get Baked by Rich Myers is coming to London.
Best known for its Bruce cake - a towering 24-layered chocolate cake - the London pop-up will showcase the creation of Bruce's successor, the Bertha which is exactly the same except for one detail, the ganache will be a mix of milk and
... - A big Albert's Schloss beer hall is coming to The Trocadero
It's big in Liverpool, Manchester and Birmingham and now Albert's Schloss is coming to London.
Somewhat understatedly billed as a "bier + pleasure palace", it's taking over what used to be the Rainforest Cafe on Shaftesbury Avenue, more recently home to Jungle Cave. It's a location that's not been home to the most illustrious of London's food scene to date, but maybe that's about
... - Justerini & Brooks have opened a boutique and tasting rooms in the Burlington Arcade
To celebrate its 275th birthday, and there aren't many London businesses who can say that, high-end wine and whisky merchant Justerini & Brooks has opened a swanky shop and tasting rooms in the Burlington Arcade.

- A Toblerone shop disguised as a jewellery vault is coming to Piccadilly
As we move into the Christmas season, all manner of crazy pop-ups start arriving in town. One of the first is the Toblerone Diamond Truffle Vault, coming to Piccadilly this week.
It's all a bit of an immersive affair. Designed like a fake jewellery store, when you get there, you'll be asked to crack a code (which we imagine will be on the easy side) and then you'll

... - The Piccadilly Cicchetti is moving to a much bigger Grade II listed building
Cicchetti must be doing rather well for themselves. Owned by the San Carlo Group (the same people who run the Selfridges rooftop restaurant), the Piccadilly Cicchetti is getting ready to move to a much bigger space - just down the road.
They're moving to part of the Grade II listed Piccadilly Arcade. It's a two-floored part of the arcade that will be double the
