Attractions in Marylebone
Commonly thought of as one of London’s most fashionable but least touristy areas, the often expensive but always classy Marylebone is packed with hidden gems. Whether it’s the Wallace Collection of French Art (that you won’t see anywhere else as it never goes on loan) to some of London’s most trendy restaurants in the evening, you won’t be short of things to get your teeth into.

Recommended Attraction in Marylebone
Whilst the Wallace Collection is an amazing sight to behold and offers free entry, it’s been pipped to the post for our one must-do activity by Cabbages & Frocks, a clothing market in the grounds of St Marylebone Parish Church on the high street, offering food of a gourmet level at affordable prices, as well as vintage and modern clothing from the world’s most reputable designers and newcomers to the fashion industry. It’s open from 11:00-17:00 on Saturdays.

Alternative Attractions in Marylebone
Aside from the Wallace Collection and Cabbages & Frocks, there’s also the Vieux Comptoir on Moxon Street, a tea house that specialises in “les delices de France” – so cheeses, wines, plates of cured meats, patés and the like. While a little pricey if you want to buy in bulk, just grabbing a coffee and a mouth-watering snack won’t set you back too much. There’s also the Farmers Market on Sundays, as well as a relaxing selection of squares to walk around, sit and read in with your gourmet cappuccino, and a wide range of boutique shops, bars and restaurants for once the night starts drawing in.
