The best churros in London

Churros are a popular Spanish dessert that has gained worldwide recognition. The long and slender deep-fried doughnuts are perfect for dipping or filling with different sauces, and they come coated in a generous layer of cinnamon and sugar. London might not boast the temperate climate of most churro-loving countries, but it has still taken this treat for its own. Whether you prefer plain or filled churros, our guide to the best churros in London has you covered – not in sugar and cinnamon, but with the top churrerias in the city.
