SIP

The Connaught

Ever a classic, you can never go wrong with a cocktail at The Connaught, which is always extra cozy this time of year.

The Chancery Rosewood

Though new to London, the Rosewood offers some of the most beautiful views from The Eagle, its rooftop bar.

Duke's

This one needs no introduction. If you want a good martini, this is where you will find it.

SAVOUR

Lilibet's

An impressive menu for even the most discriminating seafood lover, located in a beautiful, historic address (it's the building where Queen Elizabeth II was born!).

Dorian

Few places can feel as warm and convivial as Dorian. Some of the best steak in London!

Carbone

The latest iteration of the New York classic, you'll find Rat Pack music and an ambience to match with upgraded versions of Italian classics on the menu.

SEE

Covent Garden Christmas Market

Expansive and decorated to the nines, but maintaining an element of traditional charm, the quintessential Christmas market experience.

Leighton House and Museum

A jewel box of Victorian architecture fused with Turkish elements, bursting at the seams with art and sculpture (a lot of it done by the home's former owner, Frederic, Lord Leighton), all in the middle of Kensington.

Somerset House

Each year at Christmas, the courtyard of the imposing Georgian era Somerset house is transformed into the most gorgeous skating rink. Skates or not, it's worth a walkabout.
