[London] Lunch/snacks near Oxford St?

[DollyDagger]

Oxford Street itself isn't great for foodies, but is there anywhere nearby that I could try for lunch / snacks tomorrow?

Ideally I'm looking for somewhere as close to Oxford Circus as possible, but I'm wondering if I should give up and head into Soho? Fernandez & Wells maybe, or a quick curry at Zayna?

Even somewhere to have a decent glass of wine / cocktail and some charcuterie would be great.

Any ideas and suggestions welcome!

how about Carnaby Shopping area? there are a couple of places around there that might fit the bill. But i guess if you're going that direction, i guess you could head to Fernandez & Wells.

There's also a Swedish bakery that looked really good around that area if you wanted to try.

Is that Nordic Bakery you're referring to? Worth calling to check when their batches of cinnamon buns come out of the oven, nothing like a warm fresh bun (well, except maybe the ones from Scandinavian Kitchen, which I like a bit more).

yup, nordic bakery it is. i passed by that place last month and wanted to try but I already had some takeaway food on me.

oh yah here's the place on carnaby that looked good:

everytime i've been to carnaby, i've seen that place packed. (maybe from the tourists?) i wonder if it's good.

dehesa is the sister restaurant to salt yard. i think its over-priced but the food is nice.

ozer is a nice turkish place, north of oxford circus. i also like la trouvaille which is just off carnaby street. there are various branches of leon and a pain quotidien which is reliable.

there's also Tierra Brindisa you could pop in to for a few dishes, and Dehesa, mentioned above is also good - sister restaurant to Salt Yard.
