Tip! - At the end of Swallow Street is Piccadilly which is overflowing with up-market shops, restaurants, cafes and bars. Directly opposite Swallow Street is St James of Piccadilly - a famous old church which Byron used to attend as he lived close by.

If you fancy spending some time at the park with the same name as this popular street, jump on a tube or bus and head for Regent's Park where you can also enjoy some great theatre during the summer months.
