Should you be looking for a place to eat, to name a few there’s Gordan Ramsay’s Bread Street Cafe, No.17 Dickens Yard. If you want something a little fancier, then on Ealing Green there is Soane’s Kitchen. There are so many places we’ve even written another blog all about them here.

If you’re looking for entertainment, look no further than Navtar, a cutting-edge VR experience. Or if you see yourself as a bit of a baker then head to Hen Corner for a cookery lesson.

If this hasn’t whetted your appetite enough, have a graze on our neighbourhood guide to Ealing Broadway.

Bit of a petrolhead? Ace Café London should be on your bucket list. If you’re a bit of a sightseer, then you MUST stop by one of the largest Hindu temples outside India at BAPS Shri Swaminarayan Mandir (also known as Neasden Temple).

If you like a little bit of theatre then Brent is home to Kiln Theatre, voted London’s best theatre in 2021. The borough is home to one of the most famous stadiums in the world ‘Wembley. If you time it right you might be lucky and bag yourself some tickets to a gig, football game, or even an exhibit at the SSE.

Quite a mix I’m sure you’ll agree but certainly of the good kind.

Home to one of London’s biggest shopping centers, Westfield. But for those (like us) who love a little shopping off the beaten track then get up Shepard Bush Market.

For those who love a bit of a bite to eat, this borough has too much choice. From Azou, which even Gordan Ramsey himself awarded best restaurant of the year in 2010 to Indian street food station Patri (which means train station in Indian if you were wondering). The River Café is also very well known for its simple but classy cuisine.

If you’re more of a pub-goer, then Hammersmith & Fulham certainly have a good selection of craft pubs that should be on your guzzle list. Ones to give a go are The Rose or The Crabtree. Both of which have outdoor areas should you fancy a spot of alfresco. The Malt House & The Tommy Tucker are also classy places if you fancy a little bit more of a gastro vibe.

In keeping with the area’s subdued vibe, is Headstone Manor & Museum. The Grade 1 listed Manor House now tells the many tales of the people who once lived there, as well as the history of the whole Harrow area.

If you’re a golfer, Harrow is home not only to Playgolf London which is a state-of-the-art, floodlit driving range but also Pinner Hill Golf Club. The club won Middlesex Golf Club of the Year in 2019 and has impressive views from many of its holes.

Harrow on the Hill is a famous part of the Borough which has rather enchanting architecture as well as quite a lot of bijou and boutique restaurants, bars, and shops. Some of these include Grove on the Hill which is an authentic Italian in a gastropub-style setting. Another great spot to grab some good grub a beverage includes The Case is Altered & The Hare both in Old Redding – the latter known for a rather good Sunday roast.

If you’re a bit of an artisan shopper then Duck Pond Market is a small but trendy street market that can add a lot of charm to your Sunday. If you enjoy swimming, the Ruislip Lido is one of the most popular spots in the Borough of Hillingdon. This is mainly as this manmade reservoir has its own beach.

The Grand Union Canal is a lovely wander on a warm day. With numerous canal boats lining the waters and lots of rich greenery it certainly is one of the borough’s beauty spots.

Like a laugh? The Heath Robinson Museum is one to hit up. Heath was a humourist and illustrator who used his many talents to make people think about things that otherwise might have been missed. A few other places which you might also want to look up are Ruislip Woods, RAF Museum Herndon & the Battle of Britain Bunker Exhibition. All providing a rather joyous day in Hillingdon.

Also in the borough, you’ll find Richmond Park which is not only one of eight Royal Parks, but it is also a nature reserve.

If you’ve got little ones and need to keep them preoccupied, Hounslow has a vast number of ways to fill this void. From Richmond Pools on the Park. With both an indoor and outdoor pool whilst still in the setting of one of London’s most glorious parks. Snakes & Ladders Play Centre, Jumbo Gyms Playframe, and the Urban farm are a few other ways to help you manage their energy levels.

For adults, Syon House & Gardens is a stunning place to visit as well as Osterley Park & Chiswick House. Hounslow edges onto Hillingdon and Heathrow Airport which in recent years has been excellent fr tourism as many head to Hounslow before beelining to the airport to travel home.
