Delicias de Portugal
Super favourite amongst locals and professionals in the area. Great selection of salads, sandwiches, pastas, wines, meat and cheese, and take away lunch. Usually the queue starts on the street outside of the shop.
"The Tradescants were father and son botanists and gardeners who worked for Charles I. They introduced a wealth of foreign plant life to England's gardens and were the first people in the country to grow pineapples. In honour of this, there are pineapples set at the top of obelisks at either end of Lambeth Bridge."
Pretend you're James Bond at the home of MI6, right next to Vauxhall Bridge.

When you think of the history and pageantry that has happened at Westminster Abbey, it gives you goosebumps!
