Most of your obvious choices will be found in the centre of London, north of the Thames. Marylebone, Faringdon and Covent Garden are chock full of restaurants and exciting venues for the open-minded. Widen your search keep your most desired feature in mind, and be prepared to read up on the restaurant to make sure you have found what you need.
A quirky restaurant is one in which your expectations will be subverted, and the normal trappings of fine dining are altered in strange and delicious ways. This can include surprising settings, unusual menus, fantastic dinner shows and just an overall sense that the usual commonplace eating experience has been replaced by something delightful and new. Quirky restaurants in London can be a great option to elevate any occasion, from a lively birthday celebration with friends to a special dinner for 2 with a memorable twist.

These types of singular venues tend to fill up quickly, so make sure you have a table when you need it. Also, particular types of these venues may have age restrictions, so double-check for your younger guests.
