London_ The capital of the United Kingdom is a thriving multicultural metropolis. The contrast between the spectacular historic sights, the grind of a big city, and the lively cultural and foodie scene makes London an interesting and exciting destination. Wander through St. James park, visit Westminster Abbey, explore the streets of Shoreditch, and take a ride up the River Thames. London’s incredible shopping, endless sights, friendly locals, and vibrant nightlife offers something for every kind of traveler. Here are my ultimate London travel tips for planning your trip to England!
TRAVEL TIP 🚖
London is a big city and with all big cities has traffic, so getting between neighborhoods can take a bit of time.
The Tube: The best way to get around London is the Underground, or “the Tube.“ You can even take the Tube from Heathrow Airport (LHR) into the city center, which I would recommend. It is easy to navigate and you can get to all the sights you’ll want to see. Be sure to buy an Oyster card that you can reload and use on both the Tube and city buses.
Bus: The city bus is a great way to see the sights while going from one place to another. Grab an Oyster card instead of worrying about exact change for the bus fare
WHERE TO STAY 🛏
1- KENNINGTON B & B
This bed & breakfast is just a 2-minute walk from the Kennington tube station and surrounded by great pubs and restaurants.
2- WOMBAT’S CITY HOSTEL LONDON
Only minutes away from the Tower Bridge, the Tower of London, and the City Hall, the hostel is an easy walk from the buzzing nightlife of Shoreditch. Formerly a seaman’s hostel, the building features a huge bar, courtyard, common hangout area, and tons of amenities.
3- CULPEPER
This London gastropub has five beautifully designed bedrooms situated above their kitchen and lively pub on the ground floor. Clean, comfortable, and amazing aesthetics!

WHERE TO EAT 🍽
1- FOOD MARKETS
My favorite markets are definitely the Borough Market (Southwark / Every Day but Sundays) which is the oldest and most renowned food market in Britain. Brockley Market (Saint John’s / Saturdays / Cash Only) and Shoreditch’s Boxpark are definitely worth a visit. Other great options are the Camden, Portobello, and Maltby Markets.
2- THE WOLSELEY
*Modern European* 🥩🍢
The Wolseley is an art deco, café-restaurant located in iconic Piccadilly, next to the Ritz Hotel. This spot is a sight to be seen, combining their British heritage with European splendor. They serve all day, including breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea, dinner, and weekend brunch!
3- DUCK & WAFFLE
*British* 🥓🧇
With amazing views over the city (from the 40th floor) and a lovely setting, the upmarket take on this English fry-up is well worth a try—especially for brunch! They serve a very British menu all day long. They also opened a new location in St. James’ Market, Duck & Waffle Local (walk-ins only), it is a more accessible and cheaper version of the original.
4- LYLE’S
British* 🍔🍟
Located in the trendy Shoreditch neighborhood, and named one of the best restaurants in the world, this is truly a creative, one-of-a-kind food experience! Lyle’s, also a Michelin-Guide Restaurant, serves seasonal British fare as a la carte lunches and set suppers.
5- HONEY & CO
*Middle Eastern* 🥘🍚
A Michelin-Guide Restaurant, Honey & Co is a small, cozy restaurant serving traditional, authentic Middle Eastern food (think lamb, hummus, seafood, tahini, and more!). They recently opened a larger location called Honey & Smoke (pictured below), which focuses on more grill-centered dishes. Either location is a must-try when you’re in London!
6- BEIGEL BAKE BRICK LANE
*Bakery* 🥐🥨
The Best Bagels in London, this Spitalfields gem is a must-go while in London. The bakery is open 24 hours every day to serve its freshly-baked and filled bagels.
7- HUMBLE GRAPE
*Wine Bar* 🥂
Humble Grape has five wine bar/restaurants around the city! They are known for delicious food, amazing service, and a fun approach to sustainable wine.
