Easter is the perfect excuse to visit one of London's bougiest bakeries and score a batch of freshly baked hot cross buns: visit the likes of St John, Popham's or Toklas for rich, dense takes on a classic. Or go rogue at Gelupo, which is serving them stuffed with delectable ice cream eggs. Here's our rundown of this city's finest.
Easter weekend isn’t just a time to scoff loads of chocolate and have a big roast dinner: it’s also a double bank holiday. We get four whole days off between Good Friday on March 29 and Easter Monday on April 1, so the world – or at least London – is our oyster.
Worried about filling up all your extra time off? Time Out has your back. There’s plenty to do in the capital over the Easter weekend: from checking out spring flowers and other kid-friendly Easter activities to swinging by one of London’s top rooftop bars and coffee shops. Hopefully, the weather will be glorious and hanging out in the park for four days straight won’t involve dashing away from freak rain storms.
But if not, you can still spend your time checking out a free art exhibition, seeing some top theatre or treating yourself to a proper pub roast on Easter Sunday. If you’re looking for something truly special to do over the extra-long April break, read on for our top ten things to do in London this Easter.
