This is a great little Spanish restaurant opened in 2021, it is a good alternative to Jose on Bermonsey Street which is very good as well but sometimes you need to queue. Andanza seems very similar but slightly cheaper in price too.

La Creperie de Hampstead has been going for over 40 years! It is just a little stand for takeaway crepes. Tips - They accept cash at time of writing and now recently accept card payments. You will have to queue a long time if it is the weekend, but it is worth the wait! Made fresh to order savoury and sweet crepes.

This branch is a little hidden so not as busy as the other Sloane Square branch which is also very nice, but sometimes has queues, definitely worth the wait! The food is very fresh and they do amazing brunches and lunches, you can get takeaway.

It is free to enter and in a great part of London, it has a wealth of history about animals and nature. TIP go to the Victoria & Albert Museum next door for lunch as they have an amazing dining room and better quality food, plus it is normally a bit quieter than the Natural History Museum.

Borough Market is a must! The busiest day is Saturday but you will have all the market stalls open. You can go there any day of the week and check out the many fantastic restaurants and bars surrounding it. Low Line is a walking route to celebrate the unique history and heritage of one of London’s oldest neighbourhoods. Start at Borough market, there is a map in the apartment.
