This is one of the Australian-owned coffee shops credited with kicking off London’s third-wave scene. There are two Fitzrovia spots, a five-minute walk from each other, and they’re both brimming with bircher muesli breakfast meetings followed by queues out the door for the home-baked brioche sandwiches at lunchtime. We rate the Great Titchfield joint, which is a little bigger and a little further from the rush of Oxford Circus.

This wonderful bookshop in the heart of Marylebone has an unrivalled selection of books on architecture and design. Come with something in mind or thumb through the shelves until something catches your eye.

It may be low impact but this rhythm-based cycling workout is totally high intensity. We love the buzzing energy and fun vibes as much as the sleek interiors. It's pay-as-you-go, so it's perfect for drop-ins.

After you sweat it out in a class at Psycle or do some heavy-duty shopping on Oxford Street you certainly need a caffeine hit. Head to Workshop for fantastic coffee and delicious pastries. Found yourself further east? Pop into the Vyner Street location for some of the best coffee in Bethnal Green.
