Marylebone Village has some amazing restaurants offering delicious treats and promotions, perfect for the ‘special’ day – or if like me you will be celebrating Galentine’s instead, treat yourself and your partner or your friends to one of these exquisite menus, chocolate tastings or cocktails.

Marylebone Village (www.marylebonevillage.com) is a distinct and atmospheric festive shopping destination located in the heart of central London. It is a true urban village, where culture and businesses thrive, and the community blossoms.

Despite being just minutes from Oxford Street, Marylebone Village sits within an oasis of relative tranquillity and is home to a diverse and impressive collection of retailers, galleries, bars, pubs and restaurants all set within a grid of Georgian streets. The celebrated area offers an experience for everyone, from a romantic getaway to a solo shopping trip this February.
