Read on as our creative office share their top home-town haunts, must-see events and Instagram-worthy eateries for tourists and natives alikeRead on as our creative office share their top home-town haunts, must-see events and Instagram-worthy eateries for tourists and natives alike
Copita
Always the go-to dinner pit-stop during fashion week, Copita’s menu is full of classic tapas dishes with an extensive list of gins made the Spanish way in a balloon glass. If the weather has taken a turn, have a warming glass of sherry instead (a favourite tipple of ours, which we’re sure will be a trend, soon).
Nomad Cinema
Nomad Cinema is a great way to experience the little gems of London that you might not otherwise find. Previous al-fresco screenings have been held in Hyde Park’s lido, St Paul’s churchyard and The Biscuit Factory in Bermondsey.
The Barbican Architecture Tour
Explore the hotly debated beauty of Brutalism with this informative tour, where the story of the Barbican unfolds in situ. Check the programme to see if you can combine your visit with a show or an exhibition.
Claire De Rouen Books
This shop is every cultured Londoner’s best-kept secret. Ascend the stairs and enter a room filled with a selection of the most rare and exciting books in the city. Make a beeline for the Japanese photography section and let your mind wander for a minute or two.
Salon
We love Salon in Brixton for its seasonal and local tasting menu (the restaurant has its own allotment). Get the most of out of it by going in a smaller group or a pair.
Enjoy exploring...
