The Best Bacon Sandwiches In London
Based on our adoration of the breakfast sarnie we speculate that the average human probably eats at least one bacon butty a week, if not more. With that said we bring you a round-up of where you can find the best bacon butty’s in the city. For the good of your health we advise you try them all.
Jack’s Clapham
Jack’s Clapham pride themselves on being purveyors of posh nosh and honest grub. An independently run café just a hop, skip and a jump from Clapham Junction station, Jack’s will give you the closest bacon butty to the one you would make in your own pan. Whether you are a crispy bacon connoisseur or strictly a tomato sauce addict, Jack’s staff take care in serving your bacon butty exactly how you like it. You can eat in or have your bacon butty to go, either way you are in for a hearty treat.
After one year of research founder of Le Swine James and his comrade Bruno decided to take the ultimate bacon butty to the streets of London and beyond. Le Swine serves up porky goodness in a 1960’s Austin Morris camper van at Spitalfields, Broadgate Circle or Broadway Market. A reinvented camper van selling bacon butty’s, with their bacon sourced from a farm that goes back as far as the Victorian era, will be sure to tick all of your bacon buttons. Le Swine home make everything, from their very own recipe of toasted milk and onion baps, to bacon butter, swinez tomato sauce and mushroom ketchup. The topping on their happy pig sandwich is the must-try duck egg.
