Explore Foodie Heaven at Borough Market
Worth visiting for the history and architecture alone, but you’ll never want to leave when you see the array of mouth-watering goodies on offer. The Kappacasein grilled cheese sambos are legendary.
Marvel at the Tate Modern
Britain’s foremost art museum has everything from Picasso to Pollock spread over 5 floors. Entry is free as are the 360° views from the top.
Find your Romeo at The Globe Theatre
This is unfortunately a replica of the original Elizabethan era theatre which is open air and puts on some of the most fabulous interpretations of Shakespeare's masterful portfolio.
Enjoy the View from The Shard
87-floor glass skyscraper with stunning views of London, classy bar, and informative talks about bridges and the Thames. Be prepared for airport-like security and higher prices.
Grab a pint at the historical George Inn
Serving beer & ale to coach travellers and locals for over 400 years, the George still serves as good a pint as it did when Dickens used to frequent it. Today it also serves up hearty Sunday roasts.
Treat yourself to ‘High’ Tea at Aqua Shard
Try traditional afternoon tea with a contemporary twist on the 31st floor of London’s tallest building. Brut bubbles, exquisite finger food and the best view in the city.
Explore Mercato Metropolitano
A lively, massive market offering a range of international street fare from Italian to Vietnamese. Enjoy a pint of German beer and soak up the unique flair at the bar areas and biergardens.
Enjoy a Grand Pub Experience at The Barrowboy & Banker
A grand, split-level pub housed in a former bank with stunning features like columns, chandeliers, and a sweeping staircase. With a nicer atmosphere than the average pub, it offers delicious food and quirky service.
Queue for fresh pasta at Padella
The fresh pasta restaurant with notoriously long queues no matter the time - they won’t let you put your name down so you'll just have to wait outside.
Dine under the arches at Flat Iron Square
Visit this hub for drinking, dining and dancing in the shadow of The Shard. The outdoor space is host to a flea market on the weekend and there are so many delicious food options to choose from.
Have Breakfast at The Breakfast Club
