The Hawley Arms
(Pub Food)
The men behind the Mighty Boosh frequent this legendary venue in Camden and very often you'll find Peaches and her gang huddled into a corner, drinking the place dry.

The Heights
No, this isn't as obscure as you may think. This is where you will catch celebrities off-guard as they grab a bite after visiting BBC Broadcasting House nearby. Perfect for all you annoying autograph hunters out there.

The Lock Tavern
(Gastro Pub Food)
Never mind your glamour girls and your Big Brother non-entities, this is where you can meet the cream of the crop from the British music scene. Buy them a pint after a successful set and chat anally about rare recordings and favourite riffs.

Camden,
London,

Mo*vida
(Modern European)
At Mo*vida, they tend to cater for the soap set, those who appear on the front page of the Red Tops and sports stars with a penchant for ladies with tight skirts and loose morals.
8-9 Argyll Street,
Soho,
London,
W1F 7TF

The second oldest pub in Mayfair has reportedly been snapped up by Madonna and Guy Ritchie due to its already high turnover of celebrity clientele.

The Soho Lounge
If you can get in here, you must be a celebrity yourself. Or a member of an entourage. This place is dripping with fame with George Michael, Jude Law, Jay-Z and countless others treading the lounge carpets in previous years.

Sugar Hut
(Thai)
It's not uncommon to find Wills and Harry in here along with other people who are essentially better than us like Nicole Kidman and Kate Moss. Go down there and start worshipping tonight.
