Museum · Kensington and Chelsea · 40 tips and reviews
Lauren Keith: This museum has a magic about it that's similar to digging through your grandparents' kitchen cupboards. Check the website to get tickets to talks at the museum that include admission.
47 Museum St (Bloomsbury Way), London, Greater London
Okonomiyaki Restaurant · Holborn and Covent Garden · 90 tips and reviews
Lauren Keith: A delicious take on Japanese food that I haven't seen anywhere else. The swirls are made in front of your very eyes at your table in seven stages and topped with fish flakes: http://bit.ly/2BytVpJ
83 Southwark St (Canvey St), London, Greater London
Café · Southwark · 197 tips and reviews
Lauren Keith: Perfect place to get brunch and start your weekend of exploring South Bank. Delicious breakfast just steps away (yet somehow hidden) from Tate Modern. Try the sweetcorn fritters: http://bit.ly/1uLyskR
Swain's Ln (near Oakeshott Ave), London, Greater London
Cemetery · 33 tips and reviews
Lauren Keith: You'll need to make at least two visits: one on All Saint's Day (1 Nov) so you can walk around the East Cemetery by candlelight and another to tour the gorgeous West Cemetery: http://bit.ly/2ngtXOU
Historic and Protected Site · Belsize · 3 tips and reviews
Lauren Keith: Stunning art deco architecture. The small Isokon Gallery museum is worth a stop, and sometimes you can poke around the penthouse flat during Open House London in September: http://bit.ly/2BxvJzw
75 Devons Rd (Campbell Rd), Bromley-by-Bow, Greater London
Pub · Bromley-by-Bow, London, Greater London · 7 tips and reviews
Lauren Keith: Worth visiting on Good Friday when a sailor puts a hot cross bun in the net to remember the widow's son who never returned from war. Traditional East End boozer — not for the faint of heart.
Lauren Keith: Stop by, but make sure it's on your way to somewhere else. The glass is too dirty to see the poor thing anymore! http://bit.ly/LondonStone
Beijing Restaurant · Soho, London, Greater London · 46 tips and reviews
Lauren Keith: Cheap, tasty Beijing dumplings made by a woman in the front window. Extensive bubble tea menu. Service is gruff and you'll be sitting with strangers, but what did you expect? http://bit.ly/1JyYqyv
12 Moor St. (at Old Compton St.), London, Greater London
Diner · Soho · 72 tips and reviews
Lauren Keith: A perfect slice of vintage Americana in the heart of London. Excellent burgers, onion rings and alcoholic milkshakes. Don't forget a few 20p coins to put in the mini-jukebox!
9a St Thomas St (near Borough High St), London, Greater London
History Museum · Bermondsey · 22 tips and reviews
Lauren Keith: One of London's best small quirky museums. Climb up the creaky wooden staircase and step back into the 1820s, when students filled the platforms to watch the next amputation: http://bit.ly/1wmJzhY
