London Hen Do's

London is split into many boroughs and districts, it’s like lots of different villages all joined together, each one bringing their own unique vibe. From the boujee shopping of the West End, to pie and mash in the East End, the city is a melting pot of cultures and styles and exploring each is an exciting adventure. 

The West End is an area encompassing Oxford Street and Marble Arch, Leicester Square and Covent Garden, Mayfair and Piccadilly and Soho. You will find all of the main theatres here and each area has its own charm. There’s shopping galore on Oxford Street, which is high street giant central. Although we mourn the former days of Top Shop, there are other big brands such as Zara, H&M and Primark to satisfy those shopping urges. Leicester Square is a great place to explore, with loads of eateries, cinemas and of course, the famous M&M's store. Covent Garden is an eternal favourite with Hen Party Deals, ensure you visit the Piazza, a popular area filled with street performers, bars, cafes and boutique shops. 

Soho - Although Soho is technically part of the West End, it deserves its own section on account of how much there is happening here. The area was named after an ancient war cry (So-hoooo) and now enjoys an eclectic art scene and high-end boutiques. The famous Carnaby Street is also located here and Soho is also home to the many LGBTQ+ bars and clubs AND the main area of celebration during London Pride, which happens each year at the end of June. 

Camden  is an area long since been associated with the cool kids of London. Kate Moss used to hang out here with the rest of the Primrose Hill set in the 90s and of course Amy Winehouse found her home and became famous while living here. In fact there are many pubs she used to frequent, The Hawley Arms being one, which interestingly is also where the Baby Reindeer barman used to work while being visited by his stalker. It’s a cool place and you can buy a pint of Hula Hoops as well as beer. Camden Market is amazing, there’s loads of indoor stalls selling vintage and boho clothing and then there’s Camden Lock, pretty on a sunny day and littered with bars and restaurants. 

Shoreditch is one of London’s trendiest areas is Shoreditch, home to alternative culture with a dynamic music scene. You will find Boxpark here, a shipping container pop up, containing art, clothing and a plethora of street food vendors. Brick Lane is also located here, an area famous for its many amazing curry houses and also home to the best beigel shop on the planet, the 24-hour Beigel Bake, trust us when we tell you the salt beef beigel is life affirming. 

The South Bank is located on the River Thames and a stone's throw away from London Bridge Station. This is the perfect place to spend an afternoon or evening, with The Tate Gallery and many gorgeous riverside bars and restaurants. You will also be able to see some of the iconic landmarks such as St Paul's Cathedral and London Bridge
