Now then fine folks. Ever been faced with that equally daunting and delightful task of showing that someone special a good time in London? So have we. Ever rolled your eyes, scratched your temple and come up short? Welcome aboard.

We’ve tried, we’ve failed and this much we’ve learned. These are the findings from a mission to uncover London’s great little places. A collection of thoughts on the best in London’s unexpected or special little venues and activities. Somewhere or something that’s a talking point in itself. Charming and individual is the order of the day. Unusual, strange even, off the beaten track and won’t be forgotten.

We invite you to share your discoveries and your expeditions, and we’ll share ours. Never again shall a fair maiden be treated to an American Hot at Pizza Express. Not on our watch.

We’d love to hear from aspiring administrators, repressed romeos and anyone else for that matter, so do get in touch at team@greatlittleplace.com And follow us for more inspiration on Twitter: http://twitter.com/gr8littleplace.
