There's such a myriad of dining spaces in the city, London, that you're horrifically spoilt for choice; but that sometimes means you can be barraged by the same ol' stuff. No more we say, no more. As the most eclectic city in the world, it would be a crying shame for you to dine in the same old restaurant twice, and that's where this list comes in. A menagerie of unique dining events and unusual London restaurants, we're here to make your experience that little bit different.

Another of London's forward, tech thinking restaurants, Inamo in Covent Garden provides the ultimate alternative to dining out in the city. Join them not only for stunning Eastern fare, but interactive tables that give your night out in London that added, quirky spark.
Make your way to Richmond to discover Peggy Jean, a cool restaurant and bar on board a boat. You'll find this spot floating on the river in Richmond, providing amazing views from its pink umbrella-adorned outdoor terrace on the top deck.
Their menu is inspired by Australian cuisine, ranging from brunch plates like sweetcorn fritters and fancy bacon rolls to tempura cauliflower and chicken parmigiana for dinner.
Not to be missed, Albert's Schloss Soho is a fantastic restaurant and bar modeled on a Bavarian bier hall and inspired by Prince Albert's heritage (as well as his love for the arts). It boasts an entertainment roster that sees acts take to the stage seven days a week as well as a menu featuring moreish, Alpine fare. Tuck into the likes of currywurst, schnitzel and more, then wash it down with a signature cocktail.
Consider hip hop one of the best styles of music out there? Consider brunch the most important meal of the day? Combine the two at this weird and wonderful restaurant in London. Paying homage to all things urban, join Hip Hop Brunch for wild dining alongside music, karaoke and more.
You may have to head all the way to Hampstead for this unique 70s dining experience, but it's worth it once you get there. Join Bobby Fitzpatrick for kitsch interiors and retro charm alongside a unique food and drink menu.
If you collect unusual dining spots, this one is a trophy. A bright, pop-art barge serving Aussie brunch classics on a working canal? It doesn't get more wonderfully eccentric.
Darcie & May Green blends bold flavours (think chilli-flecked avocado, spicy shakshouka, feta-topped fritters) with playful design and the gentle rhythm of life on the water in London.

The same old routine when it comes to dining is that you wait for your waiter to come to you first; but not at this unusual London restaurant. Offering up diners a unique and tech inspired experience, order your food straight from a digital menu on your table, and play a roster of games should you get bored.
