Marylebone Area Guide

Marylebone

Welcome to London x London’s Marylebone Guide: your guide to the best bars, restaurants and things to do in this Central London neighbourhood.

Marylebone sits within the City of Westminster, just north of Oxford Street and south of Regent’s Park, bordering Fitzrovia to the east and Paddington to the west.

Tucked behind the chaos of Oxford Street, the quiet streets of Marylebone feel like a different postcode altogether.

Georgian townhouses, quirky museums and some of London’s best independent shops make this one of the city’s most underrated pockets.

Marylebone is quieter and less showy than nearby Mayfair, often described as a village that got swallowed up by central London somewhere along the way — if that village happened to be built from imposing red-brick Georgian terraces and lined with expensive shops. Independent boutiques and cafes have thrived here for years, alongside some of the city’s most interesting museums and galleries.

It is also home to some of London’s quaintest pubs and most stylish bars and restaurants, a small pocket of the city that somehow manages to feel both historic and current at the same time.

Quiet, well-heeled and full of character
