Hugo's was once known as The Organic Café, and the organic ethos continues today on a menu taking inspiration from cuisines across the globe. Dishes range from pasta, burgers, fish stews and all day brunches to whole tiger prawns seared with olive oil, garlic and peppers, stuffed butternut squash with garlic, leeks, mushrooms and goat's cheese, beef and ale pies and lamb shanks served with rosemary mash, cabbage and a red wine jus. Keep an eye out for daily specials, too.

This is the busiest square mile in the capital over 24 hours. You're bang in the middle of the city, it's neon-bright at night and the pavement cafes and bars are excellent people-watching spots during the day. It's a bit grubby in places but that's part of its unique charm. You can't say you've really seen London until you've had a saunter round Soho
