Nestled in the heart of central London, this post-code is what neighbourhood dreams are made of. The ‘village’ manages to feel both intimate and like you’re at the centre of the action. Marylebone Village is the epitome of what makes London special – with beautiful shopping and endless options to feast and be merry. We’ve chosen a few of our favourite spots…

1. Smoky Feasts and Soulful Vibes at Delamina, Marylebone

WHAT: Delamina, Marylebone

WHY: Nestled in the heart of Marylebone, Delamina feels like a gentle exhale — a space of light, warmth and low-key chatter that somehow channels beachy, Eastern Med sunshine into central London. With charming, attentive service and a menu bursting with bold, colourful flavours, this is food that feeds more than just your appetite. Expect smoky aubergine draped in tahini and zhough, crisp oyster mushrooms with truffled artichoke mousse, and za’atar-spiked king prawns nestled among charred peppers and paprika aioli. The grilled free-range chicken, marinated in ras-el-hanout and paired with a roasted sweet potato purée, is a standout — vibrant, comforting, and unforgettable.

WHERE: 56-58 Marylebone Lane, London W1U 2NX

2. Elevated Mexican Soul at Cavita, Marylebone

WHAT: Cavita, Marylebone

WHY: Possibly the best Mexican spot in London right now, Cavita brings elevated Mexican flair with a reverence and respect that feels personal from Chef Adriana Cavita. This place is a love letter to Mexico – with its ancient traditions, vibrancy and aliveness bursting from every plate. From the richly woven wall tapestries to the clay-toned textures and handcrafted ceramics, the space hums with details that instantly transported me back to the country. Don’t miss the yellowtail sashimi tostada — delicate, fresh and sharpened with soy, ginger and creamy avocado — a dish that balances fire and finesse in one perfect bite. Other must orders are the Cesar salad and classic taco pastor – juicy and explosive with pineapple and habanero. Downstairs, the low-lit sexy bar is where young lovers lean in close over spicy margaritas. Make time for a night cap. Take me back.

WHERE: 60 Wigmore Street, London W1U 2RZ

3. Japanese Tapas with a Twist at Taka, Marylebone

WHAT: Taka, Marylebone

WHY: Taka Marylebone has a vibe as soon as you walk through the door which feels very ‘London Scene’. Something about the atmosphere and fellow diners makes you feel like you’ve discovered a cool, illustrious spot you will immediately tell your friends about. It offers a contemporary twist on Japanese dining, blending traditional techniques with British-sourced seasonal ingredients. The menu is focussed on sharing plates with some stand-out numbers. Like the spicy and crunchy bluefin tuna roll – crispy yet sticky sushi rice topped with beautifully tender fish. Or the addictive popcorn shrimp tempura with spicy mayo and butter ponzu or grilled miso-glazed courgette with yuzu truffle. The restaurant’s philosophy is rooted in the Japanese concept of ‘Shun’, emphasizing the use of ingredients at their peak seasonality. Japanese food is already inherently elevated, but Taka takes you higher…
