Updated: 2/2/2020 | February 2nd, 2020

There's no shortage of travel apps cluttering up the Android and Apple marketplaces these days - and that's a problem, as most of them are terrible. Sorting out useless ones from those worth installing is not the most fun you'll ever have with your smartphone, but no one wants to pay for a worthless app.

If you've got a trip coming up, rather than wasting a week of your life downloading useless junk, start with these 10 great travel apps instead:

1. LoungeBuddy

I've spent enough of my life waiting around in airports to know that it basically sucks. I usually fly on budget airlines with long layovers and terrible connections, so dirty seats, expensive Wi-Fi, and bad food are a depressingly regular part of my life. The only places that offer any respite are the lounges - but without a membership or business-class tickets, I'm not inclined to wander around and ask random lounge staff if they'd like to let me in.

LoungeBuddy takes the pain out of the process. After entering your credit card, airline status, and lounge memberships, the app tells you which lounges you can access at any given airport. Even for people like me who don't have any of those things, the app still lets you know about any free lounges or ones you can purchase a day pass for. It's slick, easy to use, and free!

Get it for iOS.

2. AirHelp

If you've ever endured the pain of a delayed or canceled flight, or been denied boarding because of overbooking, AirHelp will be right up your alley. Both US and EU laws provide for compensation in such cases, although the details differ. It's a complicated process, though, and apparently fewer than 1% of passengers entitled to compensation ever get it.

This app makes the process simple and something you can do in a few minutes while still waiting around at the airport. Just enter your flight information and a few details about the problem, and the company takes care of the rest. If the claim is successful, they take 25% of the payout and you get the remainder. You also get a referral bonus for anyone else on your flight that you send the company's way.

3. Hostelworld

The Hostelworld app has does all the usual things you'd expect an accommodation booking app to do - searches, descriptions, filters - and looks particularly good while doing so. The full-screen interactive map makes it easy to work out whether the hostel you like is anywhere near where you want to be, while those all-important reviews are only a tap away.

Hostelworld is available for both iOS and Android.

4. Airbnb

Airbnb lets you rent individual rooms, couches, or an entire apartment from locals. I love Airbnb, as it's a happy medium between hostels and hotels. Plus, if you stay with local hosts, you'll still get the social aspect of a hostel. The app does everything the website does but at the tip of your fingers. I find it a lot more effective way to communicate with your host.

You can get Airbnb for both iOS and Android.

5. Skyscanner

Skyscanner is my preferred method for finding cheap flights. The mobile app searches millions of flights from over 1,200 sources and then gives you the best options available (whether it's the cheapest route, or the easiest one). The handy chart feature lets you look at the cheapest days or months to fly to your destination and sends you notification of price changes.

The Skyscanner app is available here.

6. HotelTonight

HotelTonight gives you amazing last-minute discounts on empty hotel rooms. It's incredibly easy to use, and it doesn't take long to reserve a room. You can search by city or attraction, or on the map, and then check out the reviews and photos from other travelers. It also has 24/7 customer support. When I'm stuck in a place and need a last-minute room, this is the app I use.

Available for iOS and Android

7. TripIt

TripIt helps organize your upcoming travel itinerary. All you have to do is forward your hotel, restaurant, flight, and car rental confirmation emails to plans@tripit.com and it automatically transfers all the information to your master itinerary, so that you can easily view all your upcoming plans at once. If you upgrade to the pro version, the company will find you alternative routes for when your flights get canceled, as well as send you automatic notifications from airlines about flight delays, cancellations, and more. If you travel a lot and have a lot of bookings you need to organize, this is the best app to have.

TripIt is available for iOS and Android.

8. OpenRice

OpenRice is the Yelp of Asia. It shows a city's most popular restaurants, ratings, menus, booking numbers, and everything in between. It's widespread in Southeast Asia and a better resource than Yelp. It has listings for Hong Kong, Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore, Thailand, and the Philippines. The app puts the power of the website at your fingertips.

OpenRice is available for Android and iOS.

9. Detour

Detour is a fantastic GPS-guided audio walk that offers an immersive experience in 17 cities around the world. Each audio tour is narrated by a local who knows the city inside out, so you'll be getting beneath the surface of the place. Currently, they have tours for San Francisco, New York City, Los Angeles, Austin, Washington DC, Boston, Portland, Savannah, Charleston, Chicago, Rome, Berlin, Marrakech, London, Paris, and Barcelona.

Detour is available for Android.

10. Trail Wallet

Trail Wallet is an easy travel expense tracker. I used to have a similar app, but it was too hard to update. This app is now the best. It takes the headache out of expense tracking. You can organize your expenses by trip or by month, set a daily budget, and easily add expenses. When you get a bill or receipt, pull out your iPhone, add the amount using the Quick Add screen and you're done.

Trail Wallet is available for iOS.

11. Couchsurfing

If you're looking to lower your accommodation costs and meet locals while you travel, this is the app for you. Couchsurfing lets you connect with locals who have space in their home for travelers to stay for free. The accommodation is usually nothing fancy (which is why it's called "couch" surfing) but it's free, which will help you keep your budget intact. By staying with a local, you'll get a unique opportunity to learn more about the destination from someone who actually lives there.

If you don't want to stay with a local you can use the Hangouts feature to meet other travelers or locals for coffee, drinks, or to do something like visit a museum. It's a great way for solo travelers to connect and be social. This app is a must for every budget traveler.

Couchsurfing is available for iOS and Android, and you can sign up at couchsurfing.com.

The app world is a constantly changing place, and there are many travel apps out there already that take the pain out of travel. They help you travel better, cheaper, and longer. The above travel apps are some of the best in 2019 and are worth downloading to your phone before your next trip.

Planning a trip can be complicated and juggling flight reservations and hotel bookings is often only the start of it. Fortunately, there are apps out there to take the stress out of things. Here's the best of the bunch to help make trip planning painless.

Whether you're planning a business trip or a vacation to get away from the office and enjoy some relaxation, these apps have features that make trip planning easy-from tracking your flights to suggesting local sights.

TripIt (Android/iOS, Free)

A popular name in the field, TripIt is very straight forward in its execution. All you have to do is forward your travel confirmation emails to the service, and the app instantly creates a travel schedule for you. No more having to piece things together yourself. It'll tell you exactly when you need to be at your flight gate, when the car is ready to pick up from the rental place, and when you're good to check in at your hotel. It even keeps on top of your restaurant reservations.

Alongside that, it's possible to sync TripIt with your calendar so meetings and events like weddings or parties are all included on the schedule too. You hardly have to pay attention to the schedule as the app does all the hard work for you.

The premium service ($49 a year) provides you with real-time flight alerts, seat tracking, and an alternate flight finder. For most users though, the free app does everything you could need. It's available for both iOS and Android.

Sygic Travel Trip Planner (Android/iOS, Free)

Sygic Travel Trip Planner is focused on the vacationer market, but it's also great for business users. It offers information on over 20 million places from famous sights and museums, to parks, cafes, restaurants and beaches. In each case, photos, operating hours, and other pertinent pieces of information are included.

For the more business orientated user, offline maps are available through the app's premium service, as well as an advanced trip planner. The day-to-day itinerary planner gives users estimated travel times and walking distances, so it's ideal if you're trying to walk between meetings and other destinations on time.

The app is free for Android and iOS; premium offline maps access costs $10.

Roadtrippers (Android/iOS, Free)

Roadtrippers is focused on the journey, not just the destination. If you're driving across country for a while, odds are you want to stop and smell the roses every once in a while (or maybe smell the world's biggest ball of yarn). That's the thinking behind the Roadtrippers app, which is all too eager to tell you what's nearby. As you plot out your itinerary, more suggestions come up so you can find the perfect diner on your drive.

For the avid driver, it's a neat way to find out more about what's just off the beaten track, and can make a boring business journey far more interesting than usual. It currently works in the USA, Australia, and New Zealand, for both Android and iOS.

TripHobo (Android/iOS, Free)

TripHobo is an itinerary building app. Slot in your interests, needs, and budget and TripHobo comes up with ideas of what to do, regardless of where you are in the world. It works just as well for vacationing as it does for business use. It suggests everything from the perfect hotel for your budget to where to dine, and how to get there via the local public transit system.

It lists hours of operation for all suggested destinations, along with maps, and detailed routes. An offline view mode is available too for those times when your data connection is flaky. It's possible to view other travelers' plans as well, in case you need some inspiration in unfamiliar territory.

It's available for both Android and iOS.

Google Trips (Android/iOS, Free)

Predictably, Google has an app for trip planning, and it's pretty useful. It automatically gathers your travel reservations from Gmail (no forwarding or manual entry required) and organizes them into individual trips, right down to day by day plans. at a tap of a button, Google is all too keen to make some suggestions based on what's nearby, with options to filter according to your interests and available time.

Like a lot of Google apps, it's straight forward and intuitive. The ability to see all your reservations in one place is convenient, but it's things like checking out reviews from other travelers that makes it more useful. Editing your plans isn't as smooth sailing as something like TripIt, but it's a reliable option for Android and iOS regardless.

TripCase (Android/iOS, Free)

TripCase uses a more business style approach in its app, and it's all the more useful for it. Like TripIt, you simply forward your confirmation emails to it and the app does the rest. Where things get better is in terms of its flexibility. It shows you where your seat is on the plane, offers directions to your next destination (or the option to request an Uber), and it searches for alternatives as and when needed.

For Apple Watch owners, it also sends relevant notifications to your watch so you don't have to worry about pulling your phone out of your pocket at inopportune moments. Notifications are a key part of keeping informed via TripCase, and it offers them in a convenient manner.

Otherwise free, a $6 yearly subscription offers receipts support for expense tracking. It's available for iOS and Android.

Dog/pet cafes

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
If you're obsessed with all things sausage dog-related and can't stop tagging your friends in Daxie videos, then this could be the café of your dreams.

Created by the people being the Pug Café, The Dachshund Café pop-up is specifically designed for the adorable dogs and their owners, but even if you don't own a puppy you can come along for the doggy extravaganza.

The menu includes plenty of specially-created dog-friendly treats including PUPcakes, DOGnuts, Jammy DOGgers, PAW-ty Rings, BARK-scotti, PAWsecco and lots more.

Meanwhile, humans can tuck into delicious cocktails and light bites while letting their puppies enjoy the quirky outing.

You'll also get a bag of dog treats to share with man's best friend - or make new friends if you don't own a dog.

The pop-up has already appeared in cities including Manchester, Nottingham and Glasgow, with the next event set to take place in London on Sunday 19th August at The Happenstance in Paternoster Square.

However, before you cancel all existing plans to get yourself to the Daxie celebrations, you'll need to book a place - the event won't be accepting walk-ins.

Sessions will be organised into 70-minute slots starting at 10am, 11.10am, 12.20pm, 1.30pm, 2.40pm, 3.50pm, 5pm.

Tickets will be £10 per Dachshund owner and £15 for Dachshund lovers - but your Dachshund will get in for free! (As will children under five).

Booking will go live on Saturday 28th July at 10am when two secret email addresses will be released on The Dachshund Café's Facebook page , as well as the Pug Café website .

To secure your place you'll need to send over the following details:

Full name

Contact number

Total number of Dachshunds plus their name and photo

Total number of humans (specify ages for children)

First and second preferred time slots

Pug Café owner and Dachshund Café organiser Anushka says: "Our Pug Cafe events have been hugely popular within the pug community and now we are spreading the joy to Sausage Dogs!

"Our first Dachshund Cafés were a huge success so we're very excited to bring it to the capital city where we know there is a huge dachshund community! London is a dog-loving city, and we cannot wait to be back at The Happenstance."

Social distancing events

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
When the (CNN) - coronavirus pandemic emerged, the music and hospitality industry took a beating. Concerts and events were canceled all over the world as countries imposed lockdown restrictions and stay-at-home orders to curb the spread of the virus.

But as some nations start to ease restrictions, event organizers are figuring out how to restart the music industry and keep fans safe.

A new UK pop-up venue, the Virgin Money Unity Arena, is testing this out. Some 2,500 fans gathered at the outdoor venue Tuesday forwhat organizers described as the UK's first socially distanced concert.

Groups of up to five turned out to watch musician Sam Fender from one of 500 raised metal platforms at the the arena in Gosforth Park, Newcastle, northern England.

Several musicians and comedians -- including Van Morrison, Jimmy Carr and Bill Bailey -- will follow suit later in the year in a series of events.

Distancing is enforced on arrival. Cars are parked two meters apart before patrons are guided to their own platformed private viewing areas, while food and drink can be ordered beforehand or via an app for collection or delivery.

Helen Page, group brand and marketing director at Virgin Money, commented: "We are delighted to play a part in bringing back live music events as we start to emerge from lockdown," according to PA Media news agency.

"This feels like a unique opportunity to celebrate music and all the wonderful emotions that come with experiencing it live alongside other music fans," she added.

Concerts and nightlife that we were used to before the pandemic could still be a long way off.

In the meantime, some organizers are experimenting with virtual events, drive through concerts, mandated personal protective equipment, or temperature checks on arrival.

Meanwhile, some partygoers are opting for illegal raves, with some events attracting thousands of people.

Cocktail bar

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Looking for quirky bars for your next London night out? We've got you covered.

We've rounded up some of the coolest London bars for a seriously quirky night out. We've even listed them according to their location, because convenience.

East London bars

1. Callooh Callay

O frabjous day! Named after a line from Lewis Carroll's 'Jabberwocky', Callooh Callay has drinks that will make you chortle with joy. The intriguingly titled Gorilla Panic catches the eye, whilst the Saint Hellier looks strong enough to take down a frumious Bandersnatch. Find it at 65 Rivington Street, Shoreditch, EC2A 3AY.

2. The Last Tuesday Society

Hidden within Viktor Wynd's Museum of Curiosities, this cocktail bar has a magical menu of weird and wonderful drinks, each inspired by a strange artefact that can be found inside the fascinating museum. The Last Tuesday Society is very big on absinthe, and you'll find a relatively large menu of different varieties, all served the original way with a brown sugar cube, an absinthe spoon and an ice fountain. Find it at 11 Mare Street, Hackney, E8 4RP.

3. Looking Glass Cocktail Club

Another bar that loves a bit of Absinthe, Looking Glass Cocktail Club is Alice in Wonderland-themed and bills itself as a "haven of debauchery". To enter, you'll have to step through a looking glass (i.e. a big mirror) and you're likely to be there until the early hours, cocktail in tow. Find it at 49 Hackney Road, E2 7NX.

Make your way to The Breakfast Club on Artillery Lane and inform a member of staff that you are "here to see the Mayor". They will then direct you to the normal-seeming Smeg fridge, which you'll have to walk through to enter the dingy, candlelit speakeasy. The Mayor of Scaredy Cat Town is filled with vintage furniture and bizarre wall art, while the cocktail menu is brimming with weird and wonderful drinks. Find it beneath The Breakfast Club, 12-16 Artillery Lane, E1 7LS.

5. TT Liquor

Nobody wants to end up in jail, but what if we told you you could come and go as you please and drink as much booze as you like? TT Liquor on Kingsland Road is an old Victorian police station, converted into a three-storey haven dedicated entirely to high-quality liquor and damn good cocktails. If you were just walking past, you'd probably mistake it for a humble old liquor store (and we wouldn't blame you) but, lo and behold, if you had just popped in and made your way downstairs... TT Liquor is more than just a store or a bar, it's a bit of history and a whole lot of fun. Find it at 17B Kingsland Road, E2 8AA.

Central London bars

Hidden beneath Covent Garden is London's very own Garden of Eden. This bar is full of temptation, indulgence and hedonism. With a huge list of inventive and beautifully presented cocktails, as well as some seriously stunning interiors, Eve is pretty close to being Heaven on Earth. Find it at 34 Southampton Street, WC2E 7HF, and read all about it here.

7. Opium

Is there any better combo than dim sum and cocktails? Head to Opium; the oriental themed cocktail bar and Dim Sum parlour in the heart of Chinatown. Made up of three bars spread across two floors, Opium is inspired by 1920s Shanghai with a twist of modern indulgence. It's not to be missed. Find it at 15-16, Gerrard Street, W1D 6JE.

Introducing the all-new, all-vintage nightspot in Covent Garden: Blame Gloria. Inspired by 'an opulent nana with a groupie past', the Bedford Street basement cocktail bar aims to offer an eclectic, loose and outrageous vibe. Expect fabrics inspired by Jimi Hendrix outfits and Peter Blake, boho, and Bowie influences; all generating more groovy 'gram opportunities than you can shake a stiletto at. Find it at 20 Bedford Street, WC2E 9HP.

9. Oriole

Not only does this bar boast stunning interiors, but its cocktail menu is also a glorious work of art. Arguably made for Instagram, Oriole is inspired by all things tropical. The walls are adorned with palm trees, and the drinks are made with obscure and exotic ingredients that you may not have heard of, let alone be able to pronounce. Find it on East Poultry Avenue, EC1A 9LH.

Choosing between cocktails and desserts is a thing of the past at Basement Sate, where you can pair your drinks to a decadent dessert. It's a place where a banoffee pie might come with a bourbon and honey concoction, and diets don't exist. Intrigued? Get the full picture here. Find it at 8 Broadwick Street, W1F 8HN.

11. The Escapologist

Once the headquarters of a Victorian Secret Society, The Escapologist still parties like it's 1899. Get some friends together for pizza, drinks and some serious skulduggerous behaviour. Find it at 35 Earlham Street, WC2H 9LD.

12. Reverend JW Simpson (currently closed)

This cosy cocktail bar in Fitzrovia was once a vicarage, and they haven't made much of an effort to restore it since Reverend JW Simpson was a tenant. But it all adds to its character. The dimly-lit room, with its divine cocktail menu and attentive table service, is the perfect place for an intimate date night or quirky after-work drinks. Find it at 32 Goodge Street, W1T 2QJ.

13. Studio 88 (reopening October 2020)

Studio 88 is the late-night spot where the music never stops. A live band will play all night long, and they're taking requests. Want to hear Ed Sheeran, followed by Eminem, followed by Lionel Richie? It's an eclectic playlist, sure, but if it's what you want to hear, they'll play it. Find it at 47 Whitcomb Street, WC2H 7DH.

An air-raid shelter in a previous life, Cahoots pays homage to the Londoners forced to seek shelter underground during the Blitz. As in the 1940s, there'll be plenty of liquor and sing-a-longs to keep morale high. The bar is modelled on a Bakerloo carriage, but, unlike the real Bakerloo line, drinking is positively encouraged on board. Find it at Kingly Court, Carnaby, W1B 5PG, and read all about it here.

15. CellarDoor

This intimate hidden bar is located beneath Aldwych in an underground space that used to be a public toilet, and you can expect live entertainment in the form of cabaret, blues and burlesque shows. CellarDoor even transforms into a secret cinema every Sunday afternoon, featuring a cult movie and a classic silent comedy with a beautiful live pianist. Find it at Wellington Street, WC2E 7DN.

16, 17, 18. Mr Fogg's

Each themed around Phileas Fogg and his adventures around the world, Mr Fogg's bars and taverns are about as quirky as they come. While Mr Fogg's Tavern is filled with beer and various knick-knacks from around the globe, his House of Botanicals is a paradise of greenery and gin. There's also Mr Fogg's Society of Exploration (reopening October 8), where you can drink cocktails in a Victorian train carriage.

South London bars

Tonight Josephine is perfect for cocktails and hedonism. It's a fuchsia temple filled with glitter and neon, and even its toilets are worth Instagramming. Find it at 111 Waterloo Road, Lambeth, SE1 8UL, or head to a sister spot in Shoreditch if you're out east.

Bar Elba is London's answer to a blissful party island. Embark on a colourful ascension into paradise, admire the arty witticism along the way, and grab yourself a cocktail. Find it above Mercury House at 109-117 Waterloo Road, SE1 8UL.

21. Call Me Mr Lucky

Much like The Mayor of Scaredy Cat Town, this bar is also hidden beneath a Breakfast Club. Only this time you should announce to a waitperson that you're "here to get lucky" and all embarrassment should be left at the door. You'll walk downstairs, through a bustling underground kitchen, and into this secret speakeasy, ready to get up to some serious mischief. Take a date and sit amongst kitschy interiors with a crazy cocktail. And then stay for another. Find it at 11 Southwark Street, SE1 1RQ.

22. Vaulty Towers

This wacky boozer is owned by the people behind The Vaults, Waterloo's incredible hidden arts venue. Adorned with props from previous ventures, this drinkery is about as mad as they come. Think treehouse tables and comically high bar stools, as well as espresso martinis and negronis on tap. You could visit Vaulty Towers a thousand times and still find something new each time you're there. Find it at 34 Lower Marsh, Lambeth, SE1 7RG.

23. Little Nan's

Tucked away in the arches of Deptford Market Yard, Little Nan's is a super kitsch bar filled with one lad's grandma's furniture, ornaments and treasured heirlooms. Known best for its off-the-wall cocktails served in various zany vessels - including teapots and vases - Little Nan's is a firm favourite in south-east London. Find it within Arches 13-15, Deptford Market Yard, SE8 4BX.

24. Near & Far

This Peckham bar boasts wacky interiors, quirky drinks and some lovely panoramic views of London and, as a classic example of that "gentrification" everyone keeps talking about, it used to be an old Peckham car park. Read more about Peckham Levels here. Find it on Floor 6, 95A Rye Lane, Peckham, SE15 4ST, or visit a ground-floor sibling in Camden.

25, 26. First Aid Box and Blinder (currently closed)

Irony at its very best, First Aid Box in Herne Hill makes extraordinary cocktails inspired by medicine. The pharmacy thing is laid on thickly, with cocktails served in saline drips, syringes and plastic lungs. Also, rather randomly, they have a Peaky Blinders-themed bar out the back that is open on Friday and Saturday nights. Find it at 119 Dulwich Road, Herne Hill, SE24 0NG.

If you're done with darts and find pool a pain, The Four Thieves pub in Battersea is surely home to your new favourite pub sport. This much-loved boozer is home to a thrilling games room, and taking pride of place is its own multiplayer racetrack. Reminiscent of the old Scalextric, the Moonshine Raceway allows punters to race against each other with a beer in hand. Under the same roof, you'll find a bunch of classic arcade games, a glow-in-the-dark Plonk crazy golf course, and an in-pub escape room experience they call Lady Chastity's Reserve. Find it at 51 Lavender Gardens, SW11 1DJ.

West London bars

28. Trailer Happiness

Rum lovers should head to Ladbroke Grove, because this tiki-style bar has a lot of it. Filled with 'cosmopolitan kitsch' vibes, Trailer Happiness will amaze you with its cocktail menu and guarantee you a good time. Find it at 177 Portobello Road, Notting Hill, W11 2DY.

29. Evans & Peel Detective Agency

This is another one that isn't just a simple 'walk through the door' affair. You have to make an 'appointment' to see a detective, ring the doorbell to enter, and step into their office to present your case. Not for the anxious or shy, but worth it for the cocktails once you get inside. Find it at 310c Earls Court Road, SW5 9BA.

North London bars

30. Bobby Fitzpatrick

Get ready to feel nostalgic as you step into your nan's living room, or rather this 70s-inspired cocktail and pizza haunt. The decor of this place is so spot on that it'll have you second guessing what year you're in. Go for the banana cream pie and stay for the rum cocktails and deep fried pickles. Find it at 273 West End Lane, NW6 1QS.

31, 32, 33. Ladies & Gents

Ladies and Gents is an old bog turned boozer in Kentish Town, and it's a pretty good place to spend a few pennies on a few cocktails. They serve up a fine selection of cocktails created by master mixologists, including the very sophisticated Rhubarb and Custard, presented in a classic Bird's custard can. Not only do Ladies and Gents boast a fantastic array of drinks, but they also make their own gin in the old water closet. Their Highwayman Gin (or "Kentish Town Gin") is distilled behind the bar using a 16 litre copper still. Find it at 2 Highgate Road, NW5 1NR, or in Camden and Kings Cross.

34. BYOC

BYOC Camden not only gives you the thrill of entering a bar though an inconspicuous, unmarked doorway, it also gives you the opportunity to indulge in all-you-can-drink cocktails made with a spirit of your choice. A slightly different way to drink, this bar asks you bring along a bottle of your favourite spirit and pay a flat fee of £25 on arrival, in exchange for a tailor made cocktail experience. Once you've got yourself settled you'll have a series of spirit-specific cocktails whipped up for you by one of their expert mixologists. Find it at 11-13 Camden High Street, NW1 7JE.

35. Knowhere Special

Knowhere Special is actually somewhere pretty special. Walk along an indistinct corridor just off the high street, down some stairs and through a slightly sleazy I-could-easily-be-walking-into-a-strip-club-right-now red curtain. Behind the curtain you'll find a cosy living room-esque bar, with casual vibes, former jail cells turned to booths, and an ah-mazing list of cocktails - however, due to the coronavirus pandemic, they're operating an outdoor seating area for the time being. Find it at 296 Kentish Town Rd, NW5 2TG.

A stylish Mayfair haunt, this one is all about the artfully displayed maki. Chef Yoshinori Ishii brings skills to his knife work while his side hustle includes being a calligrapher, potter and fisherman. All the fish is brought in fresh from Scotland and Cornwall, where Yoshinori has trained fisherman with traditional Jime methods, and he flies in rare Japanese produce each day.

It's safe to say, you can understand how he's earned the chef has earned his (Michelin) stars. If you're going all out - which you are if you've picked Umu - we recommend the Icelandic sea urchin. Each dish is created with innovative Kyoto-influence perched on bespoke woodblock poems (yes, you read that right) adorned with delicate flower arrangements (it's almost too pretty to eat).

The prices don't come cheap, but you might bump chopsticks with England rugby player Chris Robshaw as the payoff.

Nobu is the celeb hangout spot. Chef Matsuhisa's Japanese fusion-style redefined expectations in the early Nineties and has since partnered with co-founder Robert DeNiro, leading to a sweet marriage of sushi and acting royalty. Need we say more?

For more creds - Kanye West name checked Nobu in one of his songs and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Elton John are regulars. Kylie Jenner even makes a point to chomp the yellowtail Jalapeno dish on a UK visit.

The pricey menu is known for its 'new-style' sashimi and the original famous black cod miso is a must. If you fancy trying this five-star dining on a three-star budget, we suggest heading there for a lunchtime taster.

Raise the sushi sirens because this restaurant is in the deep south - of London that is.

While Clapham might not be your usual spot for top-notch raw fish, Tsunami is tucked away from the noise but still in perfect proximity to the bustling bars, should you have a few Red Dragon cocktails too many. Although, this is not one to try when tumbling out of Infernos on a Saturday night. The sister restaurant to Soho's Yama Momo, has a similarly moody atmosphere.

A menu to rival Mayfair's joints; the white tuna, snow crab shumai and lobster maki have us salivating. And to whet your palette, try the scallop appetiser with Masago and creamy spicy sauce. It is literally on fire.
