Food Scene

Fashionable restaurant with delicious food and cocktails. All times are great, but weekend breakfast is my favourite. Be prepared to wait at the ample bar space!

The French House is perfect for a weekday evening. Can be quite busy early on but relaxes by 8 or so. Try upstairs near the window so you can look at London going by!

Cocktails specialists with an extensive, different menu. The place for the 'in' crowd in Shoreditch. Can feel a bit overpriced, so can be the starting point for a longer night out elsewhere, or for a cool cocktail to end the night.

Sightseeing

The view of the icons of London from Waterloo bridge at night time is my personal favourite. Big Ben and London eye on one side, and St. Paul's and the City on the other.

The new Sky Garden in the Walkie Talkie building in Fenchurch Street is a must see! It's a very big space and you can walk around to get 360 views of London. Has a restaurant but you can just visit for a drink if you like.

Parks & Nature

Vast open space in North London. Parliament Hill is perfect to view London and maybe some flying kites on a sunny day. Has everything from swimming in the ponds to endless picnic spots and strolling in the woods
