Scandinavian style restaurant serving all day breakfast dishes, as well as lunch and dinner.

Our favorite place in Stoke Newington (they also have a bigger location in Camden that is even better for remote work)! Not only do they offer amazing teas, coffee, and cakes, but Luminary Bakery is also a social enterprise that helps disadvantaged women have a second chance at a new life. Tip: You must try the cinnamon swirl (and ask for icing).

Fresh coffee served with pastries, pies and charcuterie, plus a wine, CD and bookstore. A great place to rest your feet during a long day of walking!

Italian fare in an elevated dining room with a marble bar, mirrored ceiling, & rich, eclectic decor. This restaurant is part of the Big Mama group! If you don't know what that is, Google it (you won't be disappointed).

Did you even go to London if you didn't eat at Dishoom?! Kidding, sort of. This Iranian restaurant is out of this world and although we saved the one in Covent Garden, there are several locations around London. "THE OLD IRANI CAFÉS have almost disappeared. Their faded elegance welcomed all: rich businessmen, taxi-wallas and courting couples. Students had breakfast, families dined, lawyers read their briefs and writers found their characters. Fans turned slowly. Bentwood chairs were reflected in stained mirrors, next to sepia family portraits. Opened early last century by Zoroastrian immigrants from Iran, there were almost four hundred cafés at their peak in the 1960s. Now, fewer than thirty remain. These cafés broke down barriers by bringing people together over food and drink. They were the first places in Bombay where people of any culture, class or religion could take cool refuge from the street with a cup of chai, a simple snack or a hearty meal. People from all walks of life shared tables, rubbed shoulders and broke bread together. Shared spaces beget shared experiences, and Bombay was more open and welcoming for the existence of these cafés. Dishoom pays homage to the Irani cafés and the food of all Bombay."

Innovative Indian dishes served in book-lined former Victorian library with downstairs cocktail bar.

Never made it here but it looked so cute so we had to add it! Make sure to book the igloos well in advance.

A wine bar and fresh produce shop. There's a second location, called Yield N1, located in Islington.

This place is SO. MUCH. FUN. Flight Club lets you play "modern darts" with your friend while sipping amazing cocktails. There are several locations thoughtout London. You'll love the decor!

Huge market under the railway lines, for British-reared meat and artisanal baked and dairy goods.

Sundays only! It's an adorable street lined with great shopping, cafes, and the famous flower market.

London’s Portobello Road & Golborne Road Market is probably the world’s best known street market with a history stretching back over 150 years.

When William the Conqueror built a mighty stone tower at the centre of his London fortress in the 1070s, defeated Londoners must have looked on in awe. Now nearly 1000 years later, the Tower still has the capacity to fascinate and horrify. As protector of the Crown Jewels, home of the Yeomen Warders and its legendary guardians, the pampered ravens, the Tower now attracts over three million visitors a year. Here, the Ceremony of the Keys and other traditions live on, as do the ghost stories and terrible tales of torture and execution. But the Tower also has a richer and more complex history, having been home to a wide array of institutions including the Royal Mint, the Royal Armouries, and even a zoo. 🎟Tickets: £29.90 per person
