It also houses a swanky restaurant and bar, so you can relax and soak in the views with a drink in hand."

"Sky Garden is on top of one of the skyscrapers found in London. You can visit levels 35 through 37 of the "Walkie Talkie" for free—just make sure to book a ticket in advance."

"Sushisamba is always a hit for Asian dining, with excellent food (think Japanese with a South American twist) and stellar views at its City site. Located at the famed Opera Terrace atop the historic Grade II-listed Market Building, this striking space is crowned by an Eric Parry-designed glass roof. Bold in design, the restaurant offers a host of inviting dining and drinking experiences: from the bar with its ‘living ceiling’, the exposed kitchen and high energy sushi bar, to the terrace overlooking The Piazza below, and the private dining room with its own entrance and terrace."

"Located just below Duck & Waffle on the 38th and 39th floors of London’s Herron Tower is the equally impressive restaurant with a view – SUSHISAMBA. SUSHISAMBA uniquely blends Japanese, Brazilian and Peruvian cuisine and culture, with a menu featuring everything from tempura and sushi to churrasco and seviches. As well as the large main dining room with its floor-to-ceiling windows and unusual bamboo roof, SUSHISAMBA also features the highest outdoor dining terraces in Europe, offering unparalleled 360-degree views across the capital."

"At Sushisamna, a newcomer to Covent Garden although the second in London, the concept of Japanese-Peruvian-Brazilian fusion cuisine makes for an unforgettable dining experience."

"For banging food and cocktails with 24/7 views of the London skyline, Duck & Waffle is hard to beat. The 40th-floor restaurant in the Heron Tower serves up plates to rival the view: there’s the eponymous ‘Duck & Waffle’ — confit duck leg with fried egg and mustard maple syrup — for breakfast, seasonal small plates throughout the day, and a late night menu featuring ox cheek doughnuts, salt beef grilled cheese sandwiches, and slow-cooked lamb sloppy Joes."

"There are great restaurants in London and then there are great restaurants in London with views that will take your breath away, and that’s why we recommend Duck & Waffle. Open 24 hours a day all year long, duck and waffle serves everything from breakfast to lunch to brunch to late-night bites. We recommend trying the breakfast or brunch for your first meal here- easier on the wallet but still just as delicious as ever."

"Restaurants Contemporary European Liverpool Street. When 24-hour licensing was introduced in the UK, we looked forward to round-the-clock craic. Not much actually changed – but at least it meant London could welcome this swanky, sky-scraping restaurant and bar with its 24/7 opening hours and spectacular 360-degree views of the capital."

"Chef Ben Tish has brought the Moorish-inspired cuisine of Sicily to Fitzrovia, to great acclamation. The long, narrow interior of Norma has the feeling of an extremely luxurious North African train carriage, with Moroccan tiles on the walls, cosy booths and decidedly flattering lighting. The menu opens with a generous selection of small plates – snacks, antipasti and a raw bar – followed by pasta which can be ordered in small and large sizes, and proper large plates to finish."

"Few cuisines are as passionately delivered as Italian, and Ben Tish’s interpretation of Sicilian cooking has certainly warmed the hearts of many Londoners since it opened last year. Inside the Fitzrovia haven, golden hues radiate from the hanging lamps to the velvet furnishings, with diners able to order aperitivo plates to share between them, plentiful pasta and indulgent dishes of seafood stew and grilled salt marsh lamb. 8 Charlotte Street, W1T 2LS, normalondon.com"

"Norma embodies the celebrated old-school hospitality and grand café culture found in Italy. Head chef Ben Tish (ex Salt Yard), showcases the fresh and vibrant flavours found on the island of Sicily, imbued with Arabic influences and North African spices. For an al fresco lunch date the patio dining provides the perfect place to devour the delectable pasta dishes available, all centred around fresh, seasonal produce."

"What: Another savoury entry because these crab donuts are potentially the most famous dish on the menu at Chiltern Firehouse and pictured frequently in the hands of a celeb. A feather-light batter gives the savoury mouthfuls an almost profiterole-like texture. Inside creamy crabmeat is lifted with a subtle hint of chilli making for a moreish pre-meal appetiser or a luxurious bar snack to enjoy with a cocktail."

"Come and see for yourself just what makes this former London fire station one of the hottest tables in town, attracting the likes of Jennifer Lawrence, David Beckham, Bradley Cooper and Noel Gallagher. Sprinkled with stardust from Hollywood's Chateau Marmont by creator, André Balazs, the Chiltern Firehouse requires early reservations - unless you arrive clutching your Oscar."

"For those with more expensive taste, the 5-star Chiltern firehouse restaurant is renowned for its savoury crab doughnuts. Perfect for those lacking a sweet tooth!. However, there is a long reservation list (if that doesn’t appeal to you, why not try making them at home?)."

"The latest BAO has arrived in Shoreditch and it's something of a departure for the team. This time the main focus is on noodle bowls, inspired by Taiwanese beef noodle shops (but there will be bao buns too)."

"Even when brimming over with pups, toddlers and joggers, Victoria Park’s lakeside hub tends towards the idyllic. Commendably sustainable, the affable team do a roaring trade in both British and Sri Lankan, meat-free weekend mainstays. If rabidly after the former, think zhuzhed up fry ups with home baked beans and halloumi, but it’s much smarter to opt for signature string hoppers with pol roti, dal and coconut sambol."

It’s a fairly small, humble but atmospheric church, around ten minutes’ walk from King’s Cross and St Pancras railway stations.

"This neo-Gothic house built in the late 1890s for William Waldorf Astor, of hotel fame and once the richest man in America, showcases art from UK museum collections outside the capital. Visit as much to see the opulent house (it's astonishing) as the collections on display, but note it's only open for a few months each year for the Winter Exhibition Programme (see the website). Check out the bronze putti (cherubs) chatting on old telephones on the steps!"
