30-31 Clerkenwell Green (Farringdon Lane), London, Greater London
French Restaurant · Clerkenwell · 40 tips and reviews
Lauren Keith: Expensive but worth it for just how disorientated it makes you. Seeing pictures of what you ate (with your hands while no one could see) at the end is priceless! http://bit.ly/2Gp3c2w
Lauren Keith: Best to visit first thing in the morning when it's quiet or just before closing when the stall holders are trying to get rid of their last plants before they go home: http://bit.ly/2Goi69q
Lauren Keith: The best quiet respite from the bustle of the City. Read the moving stories of everyday heroes from Victorian times to the present enshrined on plaques on the wall.
Btwn. Island Gardens & Greenwich, London, Greater London
Tunnel · Greenwich West · 22 tips and reviews
HISTORY UK: This 370 metre long tunnel under the river opened in 1902, to ease congestion on the ferries that carried workers from south London to the bustling docks on the Isle of Dogs.
Porchester Centre, Porchester Rd., London, Greater London
Spa · Bayswater · 5 tips and reviews
Lauren Keith: A quirky, delightful gem in west London. Bring your Westminster Res Card and spend six hours here for just £13. Steam room, sauna, Turkish hot rooms and a 6 degree plunge pool. Enjoy!
110 Bishopsgate, 40th Fl. (at Camomile St), London, Greater London
Cocktail Bar · Bishopsgate · 506 tips and reviews
Lauren Keith: Absolute splendour from the 40th floor of the Heron Tower. Get the duck and waffle (obviously), enjoy the view and try not to worry about the bill. Book a table in advance. http://bit.ly/2CRsWVO
Outdoor Sculpture · Piccadilly · 15 tips and reviews
Lauren Keith: Take a second to stop and say "Hmm..." to the latest installation on the fourth plinth, originally left empty in 1845 when funds ran out, and now the home of a new sculpture that changes every year.
Fulham Rd (at Old Brompton Rd), London, Greater London
Cemetery · West Brompton · 22 tips and reviews
Lauren Keith: Don't miss Brompton Cemetery's annual Open Day: It's your only chance all year to explore the catacombs under the colonnades of the Grand Circle. Delightfully creepy and beautiful Victorian cemetery.
