London's loveliest shopping pit-stops: the best places to escape the Christmas rush
Step out of the crowds and into the warmth of bistros, coffee shops and patisseries - here is our selection of London's cosiest shopping pit-stops.
'Eat No Evil' is the ethos at Hampstead's health sanctuary LLS Cafe Deli just a few steps up the hill from the hustle and bustle of the high street. More original than neighbouring Joe and the Juice and just as cosy as the age-old Coffee Cup, the deli is a perfect pit-stop for Hampstead shoppers.
Eat/Drink: Buckwheat pancakes, Mama Avo with a twist, and juice/smoothie galore
Look Out For: An array of delectable layered salads served in jars.
Ambience: With neat rows of vegan treats and cakes illuminated by green hanging lamps, and heavy wooden hardware - the deli is snug even with its status as North London's health gem
