From food trucks to fine dining, London offers an almost limitless amount of options, and different neighborhoods in the city offer their own local flair and culinary experiences. With so much to offer, London’s restaurant scene is better to navigate by neighborhood. From the best in fine dining in the Marylebone neighborhood to the culturally celebrated Brixton. People can choose from outdoor cafes for long afternoon brunches, upscale Michelin star restaurants for special nights, or, when craving a truly unique culinary experience, dog-friendly food truck parks and small family-owned pubs and restaurants.
