Fresh from the kitchen of Fergus Henderson’s highly acclaimed St John restaurants, St John’s famous doughnuts have reached cult status in the capital and sell out in a flash. Every Friday through Sunday in southeast London, the shutters of St John’s industrial Bakery Arch fly open to reveal piles of freshly baked loaves and trays of fluffy, sugary doughnuts, loved not only for their brioche-y consistency but for their heavenly fillings (the vanilla custard is our favorite). Still peckish? Take a stroll through the nearby food lover’s paradise that is Maltby St Market.

St John’s doughnuts can also be found at St John Bread and Wine in east London (Friday and Saturday), Borough Corner in south east London (daily) and Neal's Yard in Covent Garden (daily).
