A must-see for the first-time visitor to London, Westminster Abbey has a fascinating architecture and history. If you are Anglican, you can also attend the church services free of charge.

I like this restaurant, and it is very convenient to my flat, only a three-minute walk. Meals are in the 20-40 GBP range, and the food is a mix of British and French influences. Book on Top Table.

Drinks & Nightlife
A very nice pub, with good food. A great, very chilled out pub. There is a fire place, so a really nice place to hang out on a cold and/or rainy day, which London unfortunately has all too many of.
