Near the South Bank so great for the London Eye or theatres on that side of the river. Incredibly cheap, but truly wonderful Thai food served in plain but clean surroundings. And you can also get a fry up in the mornings. Of course you can. Full of locals. Bring your own bottle. A fiver is all you need for a really good meal :-)

Shopping
To call this shop a shop is an understatement. This shop is a lifesaver and a local institution, a West End legend who can fix anything you put in front of him. Particularly good with dancing shoes! Nearly always ready in minutes. Great dry cleaning and repairs and things are always done when they say they will be done.
