A wealth of graphic novels from a wide variety of genres.

TKTS

TKTS

One of the best kept secrets in London apparently. The TKTS booth sits in the middle of Leicester Square and is the official ticket reseller for all of London's West End shows. Left over seats are passed to TKTS a few days before each show and sold at a phenomenal discount - sometimes more than half price!

A stylish spot for afternoon tea, but be sure to check out the toilets that are shaped like eggs!

A cult-like following has brought this incredible workout studio from America to its first London location - a great workout!

Hands down the tastiest 'cheap' steak in London. There's only one steak on the menu and it's priced at an amazing £10...the sides are great too and also very good value for money.

Bubba Gump Shrimp Co.

Based on Forest Gump, this lovely shrimp restaurant from the USA has opened its first restaurant in London! Amazing food and the restaurant is decked out just like you're on the film - it has its own gift shop too!

The best dim sum in London and superb strawberry puree lemonade! The set menu is fantastic too and a real bargain...

Just off Carnaby Street, this shop is like a Charlie and the Chocolate Factory for grown up's! All of the chocolates are hand made by the team and don't just look good, they taste amazing too...

As well as an intimate, homely atmosphere, the pizzas are delicious and very very affordable, starting at only £5!

This restaurant serves simple, yet heavenly Taiwanese dishes. You have to try the peanut milk and the Bao, which are light steamed buns with meat fillings. But be prepared for a long queue, because this place is very very popular!

A small but tasty menu of Japanese ramen dishes.

St James's Square

Beautifully maintained, this garden square is a real retreat from the hustle and bustle of central London - it's amazing how quiet it is!

I love this cocktail bar! It has a great atmosphere and is the perfect place to take a date.

Why not explore the nearby areas of West End, Soho, Mayfair, Covent Garden, Fitzrovia, Bloomsbury, Holborn, Marylebone, Victoria and Westminster

"The Cat's Whiskers in Soho was a live music club and the birthplace of the hand jive in the 1950s - the place was so small, a new style of dance with limited movement had to be invented."

The Mall is an iconic landmark framing views of the country's most well known building, Buckingham Palace.

James Blackler

Walking along Piccadilly, I love taking in the sites that central London has to offer.

Christopher Sellwood

The National Gallery showcases the world's most regarded artists in the heart of London.
