1. The London Project
With stunning views of the Marina, good music, great service its very own ‘gin garden’ – there’s no surprise that The London Project has been the talk of the town ever since it opened to the public. If you’re heading there for sundowners, make sure to get there early as the outdoor terrace area fills up quickly.

This new Amazonian-inspired hangout at Pier 7 is filled with greenery, making you feel like you’ve just walked into a rainforest. Mama Zonia, which recently replaced O’Cacti, has a variety of cool tropical drinks on the menu, delicious Asian & Caribbean food and, of course, a fun Friday brunch too.
