A 'Bridgerton' Fangirl's Guide To London

Brit + Co's 'Bridgerton' Guide To London, England

London is one of the coolest cities around because it's a mix of so many different aesthetics and cultures. It also blends contemporary design and culture with old world charm. Explore Brick Lane and Camden Market for an artsy evening, or if you're feeling romantic, head to South Kensington. Looking for an afternoon trip just outside the city? I love Kew Gardens!

Where To Say In London, England

One of the cool things about London is that the tube makes it incredibly easy to travel all over the city. So you can stay almost anywhere and still check off items on your bucket list! Within the show, the Bridgertons supposedly live in Grosvenor Square in Mayfair. To get the full vibe, there are plenty of AirBnb's in the area, like this Luxury 1 Bedroom Apartment and Private Bedroom & Bath in Marylebone. If you want to be closer to central London, Soho and Covent Garden are two popular areas near the middle of the city.

While you unfortunately can't stay inside the Bridgerton's home, you can visit it! The exterior of the home is shot at Ranger’s House near Greenwich Park and Blackheath. The House is currently home to The Wernher Collection from Sir Julius Wernher, a 19th-century businessman.

What To Do In London, England

Promenade

We know Lady Violet loves to take the Bridgerton family on a promenade, and if you ask me, there's no better place to go on your own promenade than St. James Park. The park is right beside Buckingham Palace, which is another must-see, and is chock full of beautiful flowers, birds, and picnic-worthy sites. Stop by Benugo for some yummy coffee, too.

Covent Garden

Whether it's a quick brunch or a Saturday afternoon, a market is always a good idea! Covent Garden has been around since the 1800s (if not earlier) and has everything from delicious eats to boutiques and toy shops. You can also explore The Seven Dials and Neal's Yard.

The Opera...Or The Ballet...Or The Theater

The Ton never says no to a good performance, whether it's dance, opera, or theater. And there are plenty of choices in London, no matter what kind of art you love. Check out the Opera's Swan Lake and Tosca, or The Royal Ballet's The Dream and Rhapsody. The West End has everything from Mamma Mia! to The Phantom of the Opera to Les Misérables.

Ballroom Dancing

Speaking of dance, we might not get to attend balls anymore but that doesn't mean you can't dance! Take a ballroom dance class and get lost in the music.

Museums

Take a page from Benedict Bridgerton's book, and see some art while you're in London! The museum scene in the city is too good to pass up, and there are so many different kinds of museums to visit. The National Gallery and The Tate Modern are incredible, but my personal favorite is the Victoria & Albert museum in South Kensington because of its fashion exhibit. Not into art? Check out The National History Museum, the Churchill War Rooms, and The British Museum — make sure you check out the newspaper archive for a dose of Lady Whistledown!

Where To Eat In London If You Love 'Bridgerton'

High Tea

It wouldn't a trip to London without getting tea, and best believe you've got options. Fortnum & Mason is a beautiful upscale choice (it's also classic), but Mad Hatters Afternoon Tea, Tea and Tattle, and Candella Tea Room are also great options!

A Pub

There are pubs aplenty in London! Even if you've been to a pub in the States, nothing will prepare you for how relaxed and enjoyable a British pub is. Plus, this is the perfect opportunity to get fish and chips with a cider.
