London can be one of the most iconic and photogenic cities in the world. We tend to associate it with high tea, British accents, the Royal family, underground transportations, massive parks, phone booths and the red double decker buses. Oh! Incase you didn’t know, they also use the term “loo” for the bathroom.

There a lot of Instagrammable places around so I wanted to narrow it down to the top 15 most Instagrammable places you can find in London.

Tip: Try to visit London during the Chelsea Flower Show to see more bars and restaurants with decorated flower arrangements around their properties. So snap-worthy!

 1. Peggy Porschen Cakes

Address: 116 Ebury St, Belgravia, London SW1W 9QQ
Nearest Tube Station: Sloane Square, Victoria

Oh, the power of Instagram! This chic bakery has to be the most Instagrammable cafe in London. I have to admit that I checked it out due to its Instagram hype! Its pink aesthetic and flower decorations are what drew people to this cafe. Plus, their beautifully designed cupcakes and coffees make it more fun to enjoy the brunch. I thought that it was bit pricey though for what they really are. Nevertheless, it’s a great place to visit at least once.

   2. London Eye

Nearest Tube Station: Waterloo

London Eye is the famous observation wheel of London. Get in one of their capsules and you’ll have  a great view over London when you reach to the top. It is one of the main attractions for tourists so you must not miss this one. Others enjoy watching the London Eye from afar, so grab a coffee and appreciate the scene.

3. Big Ben

4. Biscuiteers, Notting Hill

While you are strolling around Notting Hill, make sure to visit the Biscuiteers Cafe for some hand-iced biscuits, chocolates and cakes. They have very cute and artsy biscuits carefully designed into lipsticks, bottle of wine and many more. It’s almost a shame to just eat their fine art! What a perfect gift to your friends and family. They also have themed boxes such as a first aid kit, grocery box, wedding theme, birthday treat, get well soon box and many more.

Whether you’re a Julia Roberts fan or a fan of bright colorful houses, this is the place for you! Walk around and explore the pastel vibrant Victorian houses. The Portobello road market is right around the corner so make sure to check out it out after strolling through the rainbow homes.

Nearest Tube Station: Tower Hill

Come and have a meal inside an igloo with the sensational view of the Tower Bridge. The winter igloos won’t be available to book until September or October time and they should be up until April. If you sign up to their database, you’ll be the first to hear when they go live. Make sure to book in advance! You could be looking at booking 2-3 months in advance depending how lucky you are. They do have their summer themes during the rest of the months. (This year’s theme: Surfer Shacks)

7. Regent Street

If you need a place shop, this street is quite ready for you. It is a fashion shopping street  mixed up with some tasty restaurants. Moreover, they sometimes have events such as street cinemas, workshops, street events and many more.

8. Nail’d It

Address: Phonebooth- 5 Ellis Street Belgravia, Lodnon SW1X 9AL
Bathtub- 41 Paddington St, Marylebone, London W1U 4HN, UK
Nearest Tube Station: Phone booth- Sloane Square
Bathtub- Baker Street

‘Nail’d It’ is the luxury nail salon that will have you feeling like a barbie doll. You’ve probably seen the pink phone booth and bathtub all over Instagram! The girly flower arrangements all over it makes it more fancy and charming, so make sure to snap a photo and add it to your pink aesthetic feed. Don’t forget to book an appointment online to secure your spot.

9. Tower Bridge

Address: Tower Bridge Rd, London SE1 2UP, UK
Nearest Tube Station: Tower Hill

In my opinion, the Tower Bridge is the prettiest bridge of London! #Sorrynotsorry! There is a small exhibition inside if you wanted to learn more about its history. You should also check out the glass floor at the higher level walkways. It is super cool because you get to watch the cars and people from up above as they pass through the bridge. It is even cooler when you can watch the bridge lift and open up in half whenever a tall vessel has to pass through. Check online for the lift times to make sure that you won’t miss it.

10. Piccadilly Circus

Address: Piccadilly Circus, London W1J 9HS, England
Nearest Tube Station: Piccadilly Circus

Piccadilly Circus is basically the equivalent to New York’s Time Square. The flashy digital billboards surround the area with shopping centers and entertainment. Its a great place to hang out and many use the statue with steps as their meeting point. Go find yourself a theatre nearby to watch a popular musical. It’s one of my favorite things to do! You can walk to Leicester Square and look for some last minute tickets available.

11. Cheval Three Quays at the Tower of London

Address: 40 Lower Thames St, London EC3R 6AG, UK
Nearest Tube Station: Monument, Tower Hill

Do you want that perfect “waking up in London” feel? Well this is your place! What better view is there than the Tower Bridge? Have some breakfast in bed while overlooking the view and start your day perfectly!

12. Platform 9 3/4

Address: Euston Rd, Kings Cross, London N1 9AL, UK
Tube Station: Inside King’s Cross

Ehem! It’s Leviosa, Not Leviosar! Harry Potter fans, you better visit Platform 9 3/4 located in front of platfrom 9 at King’s Cross Station. You can’t miss it because you’ll see a huge crowd in a line (or should I say queue). There is also a Harry Potter store next to it if you feel like getting yourself a magic wand. Fun fact is that there was never a barrier between platform 9 & 10. Apparently, J.K. Rowling admitted to mixing it up with Euston Station’s platform 4 & 5.

Back in 2010, Photo from me! @melissagasia

I remember back when I was studying in London in 2010, there were no crowds at all. Platform 9 3/4 used to actually be next to the train, so you’d have to have a train ticket. You’d see a couple of people actually running into the wall for fun. I guess we can’t get through the secret entrance to Hogwarts Express. Oh the life of a muggle!

13. Portobello Road Market at Notting Hill

14. St. Paul’s Cathedral

15. Brigit’s Bakery Bus Tour
