We're heading to London for a gig in June, and looking for some recommendations.

Looking for a couple of great restaurants, one in NE London, and some things to visit. We're planning to visit Camden and perhaps do the Eye, we've previously done the Tower.

There are no shortage of things to do and places to eat. I would say that most countries from Albania to Zambia have their cuisines represented somewhere. What do you like?

Regards attractions to visit, it could be anything from the major national museums to the just plain odd. Again, what do you like?

Why would you prefer to ask a few horny ppl on Fab a non sexual query rather than look it up on TripAdvisor or Google.

"Why would you prefer to ask a few horny ppl on Fab a non sexual query rather than look it up on TripAdvisor or Google. "

I assume because those places can?'t entirely be trusted,as they're often full of fake positive reviews created by the owners of these places. At least here you have a chamce of an honest recommendation, as it's unlikely an owner is trolling here and leaving themselves positive reviews...

Wow, rude

I'm interested in people's personal experiences, plus they might know of somewhere great that's not that well known.

That alright with you or do I need your permission to ask anything on here?!

Camden is nice for a stroll. The market is great to try different food. My favourite is a small Indonesian one reminding me of holidays. Going there sometimes before Rios.

In central maybe try sone dimsum for lunch and head to covent garden.

If you are here on a Sunday I recommend you Columbia road flower market (if you wake up early) and later Brick lane and spitalfields (close to Liverpool Street). My favourite place around! Love the streetart there! Afterwards Kingsland road is closeby for lots of Vietnamese restaurants.

Enjoy London. It's great for all sorts of food and exploration!

London/Essex... ish... Romford to be exact

Look up Timeout nearer the time for listings. Sometimes they have free stuff. Sometimes exhibitions or performances for limited periods. Festivals, pop up shops. Or nothing exciting at all

Can't help to look though

Because it is also a public forum, That people can post what they like. Do you do this for every forum subject that isn't sex related? Pathetic comment

I dare say they could accommodate a menu of sorts for you if you ring up beforehand and explain

Have a blast whatever is this you get up to anyway x

depends on what tickles your fancy. But Covent Garden, China Town and Soho for a bit of site seeing. Also if ya like a Chinese meal, China Town has some lush food places.

As said, Our Place for Fun. if in Camden, you can pop over to Kentish Town for Rios naturist health spa (best go on a sat night as its cpls only) r if you get the dates right, la boudoir.

Certainly do the London eye , book up in advance though and if the weather is nice try a boat trip on the river.

Unsure about restaurants in ne London but if you’re in west end then dean street town house , cotes on wardour st or the Compton’s brasserie I’d very much recommend.

Have a nice trip, enjoy the gig

Definitely recommend Borough Market. The sights and smells of the food are incredible. A couple of drinks in the George (c17 coaching inn) nearby always whets the appetite!

We visited OP4F on Friday night as it is closed for the weekend. Lovely friendly crowd but the place was just too oddly laid out and cramped for us so I don't think we'd go again, sadly.
