Queen's Lane Coffee House quite rightly prides itself on being the longest established coffee house in Europe. Luring in customers since 1654, they're clearly doing something right here...

The perfect spot for a gossip and a bite to eat, Georgina's is a vibrant cafe located up a set of pink stairs in (you guessed it) the Covered Market. It's basically the fun little sister to more grown-up cafe Brother's downstairs.

An artisanal bread shop that started life in a farmer's market sounds terribly Oxford doesn't it? But with a delicious array of sourdough loaves, plus drool-worthy cakes, this is the place to go to have all your carb cravings sorted.

For those days when one burger is simply not enough, this double-stacked, cheesy, pickle-covered burger of dreams will do the job, and then some. Schedule in time for a long lie down afterwards.

Visit this absolute charmer of a French restaurant on Little Clarendon Street to enjoy plenty of magnifique dishes, including a Swiss cheese fondue for your main course, or a chocolate fondue for dessert. We recommend having both, obviously.
