London Born and Bred Team

Celebrating the finest in cuisine, drink, art, and culture from London, the UK, and beyond

Alex and Sarah have been dedicated contributors to a commercial blog for several years, embracing change and growth along the way. This online magazine serves as an exciting platform for our shared passion for theatre, food, drink, and music. Over the years, we've written about, photographed, and reviewed an array of experiences, including hotels, restaurants, wines, spirits, beers, culinary delights, and travel destinations.

We're thrilled to introduce guest writers who bring fresh perspectives and help expand our reach, offering readers an even more diverse and enriching experience.

Co-owner

Alex

Alex has done a lot of things in the name of work, and doesn't have a CV as it would be way too long. An avid home brewer, beer is Alex's thing, and not much renders him happier than sipping a new beer or visiting a new brewery or taproom. Alex also loves good food, and is entirely at home in the kitchen cooking up oversized portions.
