Time Out Eating & Drinking Awards 2012
Discover the very best of the newest bars, cafés and restaurants in London
From street food trucks morphing into fully-fledged restaurants, to the boom in brewpubs, barbecue joints and diners, it’s been a busy year on the London eating and drinking scene.
Our Food & Drink reviewers have selected their favourites of the last year – then to decide who’s best in each category, our judges have anonymously revisited all the venues on each shortlist. This year's judges: Tania Ballantine, Jessica Cargill Thompson, Alexi Duggins, Guy Dimond, Euan Ferguson, Susan Low, Cathy Phillips
Find out the winners and the runner ups in all our categories. Do you agree with the choices? Let us know in the comments below or on Twitter.
