The 19 Best Solo Dining Spots In London

"One of the best ways to spend a solo day in London is to walk over Blackfriars Bridge, pretend that Red Stripe can in the Thames is an exotic breed of duck, and then check out something at the Tate Modern. Once you’re done with your cultured chin-stroking, head to Okan, a tiny, bustling Osakan canteen where saucer-like okonomiyaki flies out to the tables and feet tap along to the Japanese rock music drifting out of the kitchen. We like the tofu and tangy kimchi okonomiyaki best—it has a pleasingly crispy crust and comes with a generous squiggle of Kewpie mayo." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, sinead cranna, rianne shlebak
