Cheap Eats in London

If there's one thing about London that is truly epic, it's their selection of cheap eats. For a city that is so expensive in so many ways (hello £9 for a glass of wine, or £1900 for a one-bed flat!), it really does have a plethora of genuinely good, cheap restaurants. 

If I'm being honest, I've spent most of my London life living out of pocket, on a credit card or only just making it to the end of the month. Cheap eats have, and always will be, one of my favourite things. I never wanted to compromise on eating out and these incredible places helped me do just that.

With this in mind, and for those skint Londoners like me, I wanted to piece together my favourite cheap eats in London. You really don't have to spend a fortune and these places will make sure of that.
