Famous London - The Best Places for Celebrity Spotting! by Jon Simpson
Whilst some of the most satisfying places to find celebrities are the unexpected ones; when an otherwise unremarkable day is changed into a sublime experience through a chance encounter with a genuinely famous human being; for the more dedicated and determined hunter, plans need to be made.
Book flights to London and take your own movie star tour of London with this guide to the city's best places to see the stars!
Wine and Dine with the Stars
The Ivy
This is the classic celebrity dining venue of choice. The Ivy, 1 West Street is the Grande dame of celebrity-haunts. Frequented by the most illustrious members of the celebrity aristocracy (George Michael, Elton John, Tom Cruise to name but a few), The Ivy was witness to the Beckham's engagement celebrations. For the most dedicated spotter of the famous, military-style planning is required. To get a table, phone at least 6 months in advance and then spend those months saving enough money to pay for the bill. If that sounds like too much work, just hang out at the entrance for a while!
Nobu
Nobu on Park Lane provides a chance to have Brad Pitt, George Clooney or Kate Moss serving as a visual side order to your (very expensive) sushi. Getting a table here may be easier than at The Ivy, but again, you need to phone well in advance.
Met Bar
While the bar is still very much exclusive and part of the celebrity-courting establishment, its hey-day is considered to be over. The Met Bar was made famous in the late 90s by the cool-Britannia collective. Many of Liam Gallagher's violent outbursts at the paparazzi happened there with the Appleton sisters and Sadie Frost sipping cocktails in the background. However, the bar remains ideal for sizing up your favourite reality-TV star in the flesh.
Chinawhites
Chinawhites is mostly filed with soap actors and footballers. Officially, those not invited to be members need a friend who has a willingness to hand over the £650 annual membership fee, but evidence suggests a small group of sufficiently glamorous female non-members have a fighting chance of getting in.
Celebrity Hunting on the Cheap
If all the expense seems disheartening, it should be noted that some of the coolest celebrities have moved away from club culture and into more proletarian hang-outs. The Lock Tavern (35 Chalk Farm Road) is a beautifully updated Victorian gastro pub with trendy staff that is frequented by the coolest of London thespians including Samantha Morton and Rhys Ifans. It is the perfect place for celebrity spotters who like their music indie, their jeans skinny and their beers continental. On a similar theme, Wednesdays at The Notting Hill Arts Club are Death Disco, a night frequented by Kate Moss, Sadie Frost and friends. The drinks are expensive but get there before 8 and it�¢ï¿½ï¿½s free to get in! Those looking for a similarly cheap and trendy indie celebrity hang out should note that Kelly Osbourne has been seen at The Purple Turtle in Camden and The Metro on Oxford Street.
On Parkway is the Camden branch of Wagamama's which is reportedly adored by couple Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale.
Out Shopping
When looking for a little celebrity with your retail therapy, make like a film star and head for the likes of Harrods (Brompton Road, Knightsbridge) Selfridges (Regent Street), all of New Bond Street and The King's Road are almost guaranteed to provide brushes with the rich and famous, or at the very least the rich, who are quite fun to stare at too! For more intimate celebrity shopping experiences, nose around the boutiques in Primrose Hill Village, and refresh yourself in one of the area's old fashioned and organic tea rooms and just wait for Sienna and Jude (living nearby) to stroll in. Other local residents include Stella McCartney, Kate Winslet and Sam Mendes, Kate Moss,, Helena Bonham Carter, Ewan McGregor, Bill Nighy, Kevin Spacey, Rachel Weiss, Kylie Minogue and Robbie Williams. Enjoy!
At the Movies
Movie Premieres are magnets for celebrities. They mostly take place in and around Leicester Square and in the past twelve months have attracted the likes of Tom Cruise, Keira Knightly, George Lucas, Will Smith, Kirsten Dunst, Katie Holmes and Madonna. Plenty of autographs to be had!
