Things to do in London this February
Thursday 31 January 2019
Have the cold, crisp mornings got you craving a holiday? Why not escape in London and find a reason to Love February with your own microgap.
A microgap is the perfect remedy for those who can’t get time off work or afford a long holiday this season. It involves taking the time to enjoy your own city, and with so much to see and do in London, we can guarantee you’ll find a reason to Love February!
SHOP TILL YOU DROP
Now the rush of the January sales is coming to an end, shopping in London is less frantic and more enjoyable. Head to Regent’s Street where you can enjoy flagship stores from all your favourite brands, before ambling over to the boutiques and wonders of Carnaby Street and Soho.
For lunch or dinner head to Heddon Street Kitchen, where you can enjoy two courses for £30 from the Love February set menu (available until 13 February) – the perfect recovery from an afternoon of bargain hunting!
SEE A LONDON SHOW
No trip to London is complete without a visit to the theatre.
Whether you fancy a west-end performance of a high profile hit, such as the new musical 9 to 5 at the Savoy Theatre, a Shakespearean classic at The National Theatre or an upcoming independent play at The Old Vic, there’s something for everyone to enjoy.
If you are heading to the theatre, don’t forget to check out our pre/post theatre offerings at Savoy Grill, Union Street Café and Heddon Street Kitchen.
ENJOY WINTER WALKS
Escape the hustle and bustle of the city and enjoy a winter stroll along the River Thames. Start your walk in Shadwell, enjoying the quiet streets before heading towards King Edward VII Memorial Park, where you can take in the crisp winter landscape before heading to the river for a gander along the shore.
Here enjoy the sweeping riverside views, with a backdrop of London’s sleek skyline before heading to The Narrow for a pit spot, where you can enjoy delicious winter warmers.
