Food Scene

This is a traditional English Cafe that serves proper tea and a 'full English' breakfast. We love it because this is where the locals eat. The portions are large and the coffee is fantastic.

A modern twist on the traditional Spanish tapas menu. I love this place for its clever interpretation of the classics. Tasty food, a great atmosphere. Ideal for dinner when you are in Covent Garden for a show. If you are a group of 10 or more you can have a tasting menu.

Arts & Culture

Don't forget to go up to the top floor of the new building and see the views of London. We love the Tate for its open spaces and modern art.

You can get lost in the British Museum - there is so much to see. We tend to pick one section and enjoy that - rather than trying to see it all.

This is my favourite museum in London. I love seeing the faces of characters through history and the modern day portraits of people who have shaped our culture. The restaurant on the top floor is excellent and has views looking out across Nelson's Column.
