This is an institution in Nottinghill, the pub is fun and full of character (and local characters too!) whereas the dining room upstairs is a good table, I recommend it

Stadsadvies

Manieren om te besparen

Public transport around town

Buy an Oyster Card (£5 deposit) and travel much cheaper by bus or tube all around town. You can add money or “top up” anytime at tube station using contactless credit card or cash.
Cultuur en gebruiken

Better to book your restaurants in advance!

Remember to book your restaurants in advance as London gets really busy on week ends especially !
Boek voordat je gaat

Book your art exhibitions in advance

New exhibitions or the last couple of days get extremely busy, so better to plan your visit and reserve your ticket and slot in advance
Wat je mee moet nemen

Umbrella and sunglasses !

This is London ... in winter pack your umbrella and waterproof shoes but for the summer bring some cool “shades” (or sunglasses :) before heading to Hyde Park just around the corner for a nap in a rented lounger or pédalo on the Serpentine lake !
Reizen met kinderen

Kids travel for free on tube and buses

And you can hop on a bus easily with a buggy or city scooter (trottinette)
Vervoersmogelijkheden

Tube and buses night service

Main bus lines have a night service but check your journey on Apps like CityMapper as buses change their routes slightly at night... and a few main tube lines operate all night on week ends - again check your journey on www.tfl.co.uk
Mis dit niet

Portobello Market

Best to visit on Fridays with less crowd and more flea market and antique stalls open. Saturday is still fun but more of a farmers market than flea market
Nuttige zinnen

Where are the toilets ?

Dovè il bagno ? Ou sont les toilettes ?
Vervoersmogelijkheden

Santander bikes for ride rental

Download the Santander Bike app and get one of those for a ride across town or just around Hyde Park, really cheap way to discover London treasures
