Description: For some good old fashioned people watch and chic restaurant food, look no further than The Wolseley that is open for breakfast lunch and dinner. The likes of Kate Moss and Liz Hurley regularly eat here but, whilst it can be expensive, it doesn’t have to be. The brasserie menu is quite affordable - even more so if you don’t go crazy with the wine list.

Description: The Royal Academy can always be relied upon to put on a showstopper of am art exhibition. Whether it is housing the Summer Exhibition or a back catalogue of a classic great like Caravaggio, there is always a show worth stopping in here for. Plus, it has a great bar.

Description: Burlington Arcade is a stunner of a shopping mall. It has some traditional names, like N Peal Cashmere alongside pop up shops. Jimmy Choo men once had a store here all summer. There are a whole host of jewellery stores too which make for some wonderful window shopping.

Description: Most people head to Fortnum’s at Christmas for its festively decorated windows and to stock up on traditional English tea for stocking fillers. It’s far more of a year round destination however with some wonderful shopping to be had on one of its many floors. It also houses some great restaurants and bars which are a perfect location for an end of day cocktail in one of London’s most exclusive of post codes.
