Unique 18 venues in London : a list

Ever wanted to host an event in an iconic landmark? This one is for you.

Wellington Arch (also known as Constitution Arch to the boot averse) is a spectacular parabolic building that grants sweeping views down Constitution Hill to Buckingham Palace to the East and the green grass of Hyde Park stretching to the West. Few other venues rival Wellington Arch for unique architecture, location and providence.

Think of the average bus ride through London. Chances are, you've invoked a flurry of windows dampened with perspiration, bags occupying seats and psychopathic commuters playing music out of their phone - headphones nowhere in sight. Scary stuff.

Bustronome (a valiant attempt to combine the word Gastronome and Bus, so far as we can tell) reinvents the wheel, so to speak. Combining multi-passenger transport with fine dining, this quirky London venue can ferry 38 diners across London, granting vistas of iconic spots along the way. For 2-3 hours you'll experience British cuisine, heightened by French techniques; expect fresh, seasonal produce cooked well and paired with well-chosen wines.

Other aspects include multi-lingual audio pens that paint a historic context to each location, a transparent upper deck to take in the inky-orange glow of London's night sky, and at no point will you have to squeeze through limbs and torsos, desperately trying to reach the doors before they shut.

If your looking for a different night out, head to Finsbury’s Everyman Broadgate.

With its art-deco interiors and comfy sofa-style seating, this upscale cinema lets you watch the latest films on the big screen in style. Mix the cosiness of your own living room with the comfort of bar service to enjoy a unique and luxurious night out at the movies.

Order drinks, hot food and snacks to your seats to enjoy during the film. Whether you're a thrill chaser, a hopeless romantic or a horror lover (you people scare me), The Everyman Broadgate has 25 seats per screen.

Try a new way to view with plenty of legroom.
