About Us

What We Do

Established in 2006, The Handbook is the original insider’s guide to London and beyond. With 1.6 million monthly unique visitors and over 260,000 engaged subscribers, we are the UK’s fastest-growing 360° lifestyle platform connecting a discerning, experience-driven audience with the best in culture, travel, food, fashion, beauty and wellbeing.

In addition to our high-performing, SEO-optimised features and top-ranking reviews, our highly engaged social media channels—reaching hundreds of thousands across Instagram, TikTok, and beyond—extend the life and visibility of every story we tell. From reels to reviews, we spark conversations, drive traffic, and build buzz where it matters.

Our content is trusted, shareable, and built to perform ensuring the brands we work with aren’t just featured, but firmly embedded in the cultural conversation. We don’t just cover what’s new we define what’s next.
