The London Wellness Guide
The wellness industry in London has found its feet—its soft, beautiful, callus-free feet—with a host of entrepreneurial women taking the lead. We spend a lot of time in the UK capital these days, thanks to our own well-being mecca—the now-permanent London goop store—and we’ve compiled a comprehensive wellness black book for your next visit.
What’s New and Great in London
We like to keep on top of the latest happenings in our favorite adopted city. And the British capital has become one of those towns where hedonism and health are happy neighbors. So here it is: Our A to Z of the newest restaurants, wine bars, hotels, workout spaces, and healers (and some older gems we can’t bear to omit) that keep us fed, rested, spiritually aligned—and coming back for more.
The Local's London Guide
These spots are the kind of places that make it into many a Londoner's daily and weekly routine—meaning they're equal parts great and essential (and good for visitors, too).
The London Hipster Guide
Many of the city's young creatives roam the streets of East London, opening and popularizing a lot of the city's most interesting restaurants, shops, and bars. (Don't worry if East London isn't in your plans: There are hipster-approved spots dotted across the city.)
The London Kids Guide
The Classic London Guide
Our guide to the most iconic spots of this much-loved city, perfect for both locals and visitors alike.
The London Art & Architecture Guide
You can't really walk a block without stumbling across a cultural monument, a great gallery, or one of the world's best museums—and thanks to its long and storied history, most of its shops and restaurants occupy pretty notable environs, too.
The London Foodie Guide
There are tons of new spots in London that are quickly becoming classics. Thanks to the arrival of Andre Balasz' Chiltern Firehouse, Marylebone is sprouting all kinds of greatness, plus there are loads of more affordable (and verifiably great) restaurants popping up all over town.
