THREE DAYS IN LONDON: THE ULTIMATE LONDON ITINERARY

DAY TWO:

BRUNCH

Londoners love their brunch. It’s the greatest meal of the day! If your three days in London fall on the weekend, brunching is especially necessary.

Friends of Ours is our top choice for brunch in London because everything they serve is delicious (times 1,000), thoughtful, fresh, and plated to impress. Pictured above is their Eggs Asparagus (two poached eggs, seasonal baby asparagus, beetroot and lime hollandaise, black sesame seeds, and beetroot sprouts, on seeded toast) and their Smoked Salmon and Scrambled Eggs (in-house lime cured and green tea smoked salmon, with three scrambled eggs, on seeded toast). Brilliant!

Three Days in London

TOWER OF LONDON

Originally founded by William the Conqueror in 1066 to keep out hostile Londoners, the Tower of London still stands smack in the middle of London. The Tower of London is a medieval fortress and UNESCO World Heritage Site, which has been continually built and rebuilt over the centuries. While strolling outside of the fortress, informative signs bring the Tower of London’s history to life, and you’ll also notice how sections of the fortress look different than others, due to the reconstructions over time. If you’d like to tour the inside, you can buy tickets online, or upon arrival.

Three Days in London

TOWER BRIDGE

The Tower Bridge is another one of the city’s most famous and striking landmarks. After you’ve finished up at the Tower of London, you should make your way over to this bridge to snap lots of photos, see the bridge part for boats to pass underneath, walk across the bridge, and even go inside of the bridge to look down on London through glass floors and see the bridge’s engine rooms.

Three Days in London

INDIAN FOOD

Chicken tikka masala is actually Britain’s national dish, so obviously you should eat Indian food while in London. From spicy curries and flavor-packed samosas, to garlic naan and mango lassis, the Indian food in London is on point.

If you want to savor the best Indian food in the city, Dishoom is the place. We could go on and on about how delightful this place is, but you should really just try it for yourself.

Three Days in London

COVENT GARDEN

Come nightfall, jolly people fill Covent Garden, ready to eat delicious food, see theatre and opera performances, drink lots of beer, and enjoy the many street performances.

For a great night on the town, snag a reservation at one of Covent Garden’s best restaurants (Hello, Dishoom!), then see one of your favorite broadway shows (obviously, purchase your tickets well in advance), or enjoy a few hours of drinking and dancing with locals and tourists alike.
