For a really relaxing friendly spa experience make sure you get down to Amara Spa in Fulham for some indulgent pampering.

Let Living Vintage's beautiful children's clothes, antiques and soft furnishings seduce you and help you bring a touch of comfortable elegance to your home.

Hidden from the congestion of Upper Street, this quaint local pub serves up good, hearty pub fare and boasts a great garden for summer barbeques and Pimms, says Jessica Gearhart.

Whatever the weather, the sun will be shining in this quirky Hoxton haven. For a dash of latin spirit with your Café latte, head to Macondo.

Every trip to Upper Street demands a visit to the lovely Labour of Love, full of unique, sophisticated but kooky fashion.

You can’t help but fall in love with the soft fuchsia décor and to-die-for modern European menu. Dine in stylish comfort at Kicca in Chelsea.

Cosy décor and hearty meals are always the perfect antidote to living it up the night before. Do both at the new-opened Lodge Tavern in Ealing Broadway.

Just had a baby or know someone who has? Pampering treats, clothes and accessories for mum and her little ones. Perfect for gifts and late night online shopping!
