"Beautiful building, interesting exhibits, but very outdated. Some exhibits showed present-day as 1990 and still has Pluto as a planet. Worth going because of the amazing architecture and surroundings."

"The classiest, most I-could-get-lost-in-here stores in the world. Every detail is perfected in this department store -- beats Harrods by a mile. Has great coffee and tea selection."

"Hard to get to but worth it. The pub is cute on the outside and in but you must make reservations to eat there. The crowd here is mostly locals so it's more authentic than some pubs."

"Awesome (huge!) pizza and good wine selection. Perfect location near the Notting Hill tube stop and great for a big group meal."

"You can't leave Covent Garden without a cookie from Ben's. And while you're indulging, order the cookie monster. Two warm cookies of your choice with ice cream in the center. To die for!"

"Dishoom is the perfect spot for fast and inexpensive Indian food. The restaurant is bright and clean and the service is great. A wonderful place to stop that's not in the middle of Covent Garden."
