Twenty years grafting in the City and living in E17 teaches you where to actually eat, not where the influencers queue. This is the stuff I go back to on repeat, scored like I'm marking a five-a-side performance. No faff, no foam on the plate unless it's a pint.

1L. Manze76 Walthamstow High Street, LondonLondonPie, mash and liquor9/10Proper old-school tiles, proper old-school pie. If you've not had liquor on your mash you've not lived round here.
2Gokyuzu26-27 Grove Road, Walthamstow, London E17 9BULondonTurkish grills9/10Portions built for blokes who've just done 90 minutes of five-a-side. Lamb chops are unreal.
3Sodo Pizza72-74 Church Hill, Walthamstow, London E17 3AQLondonSourdough pizza8/10Does the job on a Friday when you can't be bothered cooking. Beer list's better than most.
4Walthamstow Market stallsWalthamstow High Street, London E17LondonFresh fruit and veg7/10Not what it was in its heyday but still the cheapest fruit you'll find in zone 3.
5Walthamstow Farmers' MarketWalthamstow Town Square, London E17 7JNLondonLocal produce and street food8/10Sunday morning ritual. Olive stall alone is worth the walk down.
6Smithfield Market area caffsCharterhouse Street, London EC1A 9PSLondonFull English, early starts7/10Nothing fancy, exactly what you need at 6am when the boiler's packed in again.
7Borough Market8 Southwark Street, London SE1 1TLLondonArtisan food stalls8/10Pricier than the Stow but worth it once in a while for the scotch eggs and raclette.
8The Chequers Walthamstow2 Orford Road, Walthamstow, London E17 9NLLondonPub grub and craft ale7/10Solid for a pint and a burger after the match. Gets rammed on a Saturday though.
9Crate Walthamstow17 & Central, Hoe Street, Walthamstow, London E17 4SHLondonStreet food hall7/10Decent spread of vendors under one roof. Handy when the group can't agree on a cuisine.
10Turtle Bay Walthamstow1-3 Hoe Street, Walthamstow, London E17 4PGLondonCaribbean food and rum cocktails7/10Jerk chicken's reliable, happy hour's dangerous. Good shout before a West End preview if you're heading in early.
