"This dog-friendly east London café is certainly one to add to your London vegan food roster. Not only is there a full vegan English breakfast, complete with crispy hash browns, roasted plum tomatoes and grilled sourdough dripping in creamy vegan butter, they also serve seriously generous portions, leaving even the hungriest of customers full. There’s far more than fry ups on offer, though: the spicy coconut ramen is a delightful winter warmer, served with silky tofu, shiitake mushrooms and thick udon noodles deliciously slurped up when drizzled in hot chilli oil."
"Yotam Ottolenghi’s impeccable Fitzrovia site is an assured crowd pleaser, anytime of day or night. At the weekend, early risers may nibble on pastry with homemade banana and passionfruit jam, while awaiting hot plates such as addictive Iranian fritters, piquillo sauce and fried egg, or butternut hummus, poached eggs, tomato and chilli on za’atar flatbread. As for the late crowd, the likes of crumpet lobster toast with kumquat; celeriac shawarma, bkeila and fermented tomato, and Jerusalem mixed grill with baharat onions will smooth reentry into civilisation."
"If you think you've tasted all there is to taste for breakfast, then think again. Famous chef Ottolenghi has turned traditional breakfast on its head at his latest outpost Rovi. Try the jalapeño cornbread, scrambled eggs, avocado and tomato or the okonomiyaki, prawns, kimchi and fried egg."

"Push the boat out with an evening at Steak & Lobster, the trendy restaurant that needs no introduction. Get your chops around a mouthwatering sirloin steak, an indulgent lobster macaroni cheese or enjoy the best of both with a good old surf 'n' turf."

"GreenwichOne of the capital’s largest craft breweries, Meantime is also blessed with a supremely stylish taproom – hexagonal floors and mid-century wooden furniture – that begs to be settled into for a tasting session. Because at this award-winning spot, it’s all about the beers: even the burgers come with sauces made from the core house brews (Anytime IPA Hot and Sweet, Yakima Red Ale BBQ, Easytime Lager Marinara). Top tip: take some of the Chocolate Porter home with you – it’s perfect for putting in puddings."
"It is known as the location of the prime meridian and gave its name to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) and sits first on the meridian line. The observatory is now maintained as a museum and visitors can learn about the history and discoveries at the observatory, stand on the famous Meridian line, visit Flamsteed House, see a camera obscura, and see the great equatorial telescope. Admission includes an audioguide to make the most of your self-guided visit."
"According to founder Alistair Hook, “Great beer is at the heart of everything we do.” and we believe them. Having been born in 1999, well before craft beer became trendy, they’ve spent 20 years perfecting their beers and that has most definitely been time well spent. Have we saved the best brewery until last?"
