    Atmosphere great, other visitors friendly, staff friendly but lack of eating places around Stadium. Just a burger Van And a fish & chips Van ... For thousands

    Although West Ham United now has the Olympic Stadium as its Home Venue, the whole park has not lost any of its parkland feel and layout. Lovely relaxing walks around the park and along the canal

    It can't be denied: they've done a great job turning the Olympic Park into a new public park for London. Go and explore, it's especially good in the summer with water fountains & wild flowers galore.

    Awesome open area in east London. Very neat to see so many venues still so well maintained and many host events and activities for the public.

    Wonderful public space ☺ Perfect for a morning/evening run. Also go in the summer where you can have picnics. If you have kids, bring them along too as there's plenty of things to keep them occupied.

    A great modern park away from the hustle-bustle of busy London. The water fountains and climbing wall make a great addition.

    Might not be the cheapest, but certainly the easiest & quickest way to get here is using SouthEasterns high speed rail service from St Pancras, Ebbsfleet or in Kent to Stratford International station.

    Brits planned this well. It is a multi use place. During summer they host lots of different events. It is next to Westfield Stratford, so there are great food and shopping options.

    Stadium great. Surroundings tranquil and great views. Limited food even for 25 July 2015 Athletics just a burger van and a fish & chip van

    Once home of the London 2012 Olympics but now a lovely park with places to chill and soak up the sun.Kids play area good size but large park so lots to explore.Look out for the Olympic bell.

    Beautiful park now used for festivals and concerts. Allow half an hour to get out of the park to get to Stratford Station, from the main stage.

    Race of Champions. Great atmosphere, great views of the whole track, brilliant sound system. Could do with semi-skimmed milk on the tea stands!

    Now it's fully open it's a good park, with lots of stuff for kids. Unfortunately, one outfit seems to have a monopoly on catering, so the kiosks all have the pitiful choice and inflated prices.

    When leaving beat the crowds by heading to Stratford International. 6 minutes to Kings Cross and if you go to the end of the platform you can get an entire carriage to yourself.

    Somewhat eerie post olympics but a lovely place, worth hiring a bike to have a cycle round.

    Not a great venue for a large gig. The main stage area is essentially a concrete/gravel parking lot. The park itself is beautiful with grassy fields running along the canal.

    Don't go to a gig here. The entire grass area is covered by standing crowd so if you want to sit and have a beer, you're on concrete. Rubbish compared to real LDN park gig venues.

    Soulless park, it feels like an American park, full of retailing stores and unfinished construction everywhere

    Not the nicest park in London. Still seems like a big construction side with greenery. Has nothing against the more traditional parks.
