Tips and reviews

Here's what Trippy members say about Wright Brothers Oyster & Porter House:

"Hi Hillary, The things that people suggest will be based on what they enjoy. What about you? What do you like? Do you like art? If so, check out the National Gallery. There are many familiar pieces there, as well as other works of note. If ancient History appeals to you, don't miss The British Museum. It's collection is unsurpassed. The British Library is fascinating, with a copy of the Magna Carta, collections of books from the earliest days of print, and even a special Beatles collection. I'm not sure if this will appeal to you, but I'd, like to recommend the Churchill War Rooms, also called the Cabinet War Rooms. This was the command center for the British government during the blitz. In 1945 it was simply closed up, and remained that way until it was rediscovered in 1984, intact. It was opened as a museum in 2005. The Imperial War Museum has an outstanding collection of airplanes and weapons from the second world war, and two walk through exhibits covering the blitz and the trenches of world war one. If you take a walking tour, some of the things you might want to pass by are the Thames, the Houses of Parliament, Buckingham Palace, Piccadilly Circus and Trafalgar Square. London has some lovely parks too. The Regent's Park and St James' Park are definitely worth a visit. Hyde Park is impressive, with Kensington Gardens adjacent. In the north west you'll find Speakers' Corner. It's an open air forum where people can voice their belief on any issue that they wish. It's democracy in it's most primal form, and can provide endless free entertainment. Do you plan on doing any shopping while you're there? If so, may I recommend some of London's open-air markets and off-beat shops. First, try Portobello Market. In it's day if fueled the fashion conscious of the Punk Rock movement. Today it consists of several distinct market sections; Food, fashion, produce, new goods and used items. it's easy to loose track of time and spend the better part of the day there. Find them at, >"  See More

"Hi Courtney, Restaurants in London are easy to come by. When I was organising business dinners in the city we liked: - Jamie's Italian Threadneedle Street (a chain by Jamie Oliver - good food, reasonably priced and good service) - Blueprint Cafe (At the design museum, walking distance from Tower Bridge. Lovely, fancy food, set menu deal on certain nights, great view of Tower Bridge) - Sushisamba (for the view, cocktails and tapas-style Japanese-Brazilian-Peruvian sushi on the 38th-floor Heron Tower overlooking London) - Duck & Waffle (located ABOVE Sushisamba, open 24 hours, great for breakfast meetings) - TĪNG (Located on level 35 of The Shard, this glass walled restaurant serves modern European cuisine with an Asian twist as you enjoy breathtaking views across London.) - Shoryu (A chain located all through London with yummy Japanese ramen (noodles and soup)) - Haz (A Turkish cuisine chain located all through city of London) - Ottolenghi (haven't been here yet, but it has been recommended and I am booked to go end of August). I have a larger list here:"  See More
