    Thanks so much for watching! ✨
    As promised, I’ve shared my extended list of london recommendations (including pubs, bars and clubs, along with more restaurants from budget to boujee!) here: open.substack.com/pub/lucymoon/p/my-london-guide-the-long-list
    Let me know if you’d like to see more videos like this! I loved filming this one 💌

    I'm headed to the UK in mid-April (Edinburgh for 6 nights, London for 7 nights) and I'm finding the trip planning for London SO overwhelming; the city is massive! Grateful for videos like these! Especially because I'm from British Columbia (Canada) and London really just feels like another planet lol

    Lucy, this is a brilliant video idea and incredible execution. I loved how you took us along with you and the little recommendations from friends along the way. It’s really felt like I was visiting London with you! If you have any other cities you know well, DO THOSE (I’m begging)

    What a perfect tourist guide! I've been debating going to London in late summer but I really wasn't sure because all the options were overwhelming me to the point that I dreaded planning out a trip. I much prefer videos like these that focus on certain things vs. trying to cram in everything London has to offer.

      The Jolly Butcher is great- best pub in Stokey in my opinion. Great beer selection and very solid Indian food, but how is it for a roast though (meaning what’s it like since they typically do Indian food)?

    ok i just was in london last week for my birthday! i admit that i was so overwhelmed by the possibilities while I was planning the trip that I ended up spending most of my time in museums, which is not at all bad I just wish I had more of a compass while navigating the streets! I found the city centre particularly overwhelming so it was nice to see you walking through it because it looks completely different lol. Also it didn’t help that I had knee pain for most of the days I was there so my walking capabilities were very restricted, but that just means I’ll have to come back!

    Oh I wish this had come out sooner! I spent the holidays visiting my partner's family in the UK and we did a day trip to London and ended up being a little disappointed in our day... it's hard to know what to do in such a big city. Will say I loved the Transport Museum if you're a fan of urban planning and transportation, but it was rather full of children haha. I loved the feature room of historic posters promoting the Tube. Will definitely be referring back to this next time we're visiting!

    Fair recommendations on cafes in East London, but I’d add Coffee Matters and Holy Shot in Shoreditch in addition to the Allpress that was mentioned. For Sunday Roast in East London, I’d recommend Marksman, The Duke of Richmond (one by Haggerston Park), and The Drapper’s Arms.
