Our London favourites
Our favourite spots in and around London
Our favourite days out
These may not be London’s biggest attractions, but they’re three of our favourite ways to spend a day in the city.
Start with Jolene, wander around Angel & finish with a pint
Start with breakfast at Jolene, our favourite neighbourhood café. Marina loves the coffee and Thaís's go-to is their cinnamon bun.
Then wander around Angel and Upper Street before heading south for a pint at Brixton Brewery Taproom.
Brunch at the Borough Market & afternoon on Brick Lane
Start at Borough Market for breakfast or brunch (half the fun is walking around deciding what to eat!)
Then head to Brick Lane, where there's always something happening. Browse the vintage and independent shops, street food, markets, and don't forget to stop for a pint at the Old Truman Brewery.
The Breakfast Club & sunny day at the park
We love The Breakfast Club: big portions, properly indulgent food, and there's one everywhere you look.
If the sun’s out, grab some friends and head to the nearest park. No itinerary, no sightseeing... just enjoying one of those rare London days when everyone immediately heads outside.
Our favourite restaurants
The places we keep going back to
Osteria Tufo
Our little neighbourhood Italian and a family favourite. We've been countless times, and it always feels special. It’s tiny, cosy and family-run, with a changing menu, perfect tiramisu and, every now and then, a waiter who suddenly starts singing opera.
Shoryu Ramen
Yes, it’s a popular one, but we genuinely love it. Great broth, plenty of choice and a perfect match for Thaís’s love of Asian food and Marina’s love of noodles. Ideal on a cold London day (though we’d happily have it in summer too.)
Our favourite pubs & cafés
Whether you'd like to grab a coffee or a pint.
If you have a bit more time
Three more things we love doing when we have a free day in London.
