If you have spare time in London, head here for a unique experience

London has a lot to offer. Museums, the Theatre, parks and walking tours - to name a few. Sometimes tourists want to have a bit of "local" time, meaning they want to feel like a local, do as the locals do, and not just hit all the touristy hot spots. 

So, if you have spare time in London, head here for a unique experience:

1. Life-Sized Monopoly

It's as it sounds, a life sized monopoly game. There are three boards to choose from and 6-24 people can play. You and your team will complete escape room challenges as you move around the board, and make as much money as you can.

Ticket Prices start at £49 per person and the game takes approximately 1.5 hours to complete. There's also a Monopoly themed restaurant and bar.

Address: 213-215 Tottenham Court Road

2. Bake a Cake

It's time to bake! This is a mock baking competition with various baking themes. Ingredients are included and a professional baker is there to help guide you through the steps. It wouldn't be a competition if it weren't timed. You have 90 minutes to complete your creation. 

This unique experience costs between £41.50-£47.50. There are two locations in East and South London.

East location: The Big London Bake East, Arch Under the Bridge, Lee Street, London, E84ED

3. Attendant Coffee Roasters

Although there are many Attendant Coffee establishments to visit in order to have your caffeine fix, the most unique of them all is located in Fitzrovia (close to Oxford Street) in an old underground Victorian washroom for men. From their website: "Built around 1890 and mothballed in the 1960s, the Attendant was dormant for more than fifty years. After two-years’ of planning and restoration, the original Doulton & Co porcelain urinals have become an inspired line with green seating to match the original Victorian floor tiles."

They have weekday and weekend menus, with items such as Sourdough Waffles, Spanakopita and Smoked Salmon Croissant. There are also other options if coffee isn't your thing, such as juices, smoothies, tea, etc.
