Ideas for what to do in London tomorrow?

We're in London for a gig, we have at least 7 hours free-what should we do?
Were staying at Great Portland street, but don't want hours of traveling to get somewhere

Go to China town for lunch! The golden dragon on Gerard street (it’s just down the road from shaftsbury avenue and Leicester Square)

Head to the museums - science and natural history are both over Kensington way (don’t know exact locations though) or take a wander around harrods. Go to the v&a centre (close to vIctoria station) or the Tate gallery.
Camden has some fantastic markets, or borough market is near London Bridge.
Carnaby street is just off regents/oxford street some interesting little shops there. Selfridges has apparently opened the Christmas shop, as has Liberty’s
There’s indoor mini golf up near bricklane (junkyard golf).

Off the top of my head that’s all I can think of 🤷

We tend to get the tube to Covent Garden, then wander round Covent Garden and then up to Leicester Square, Fortnum and Mason, Regent Street, Soho/Carnaby Street and Oxford Street.

There’s plenty of opportunities for food, drink and shopping or to deviate off if you want, such as, we wanted to take a look at the protests in Trafalgar Square last weekend and ended up watching the new JK Rowling TV show being filmed and went into a NFL tailgate bar with cheerleaders and a band.

I've just got in from a day in London and had yet another amazing meal at the Golden Dragon!

A few months ago I went to this exhibition because I loved watching the programmes years back. Not everyone’s cup of tea 😱😂

Then a walk down to China Town and Covent Garden.

I love the river and the bridges too. South Bank has an amazing and vibrant atmosphere or there's lots of restaurants overlooking the marina at St Catherine's Dock near Tower Bridge. Looks like you have a nice day for it too, and nowhere is far away when you use the Tube.

I’m useless at geography but if you like Pokemon, there’s a pop-up Pokemon Centre at Westfields until mid-November 😁

Tower bridge is due to open today at 2pm. That's worth a gander if you are local.

We were so tired from the gig the night before we got an earlier train home in the end 😂
