They’re known for their outrageous doughnuts, but now Doughnut Time are turning their hand to ice-cream as they launch their own pop-up parlour Mister Fitz’s Finest Ice Cream. Opening today, they’ll be serving up ice cream sandwiches, because why eat your ice cream out of a cone when you can...
What: Brunch, everyone Londoner’s favourite time of the week, the meal that can cure a hangover, start a hangover and means you can technically eat twice as much as it’s two meals in one, although, not actually advisable of course. When we heard that Sea Containers had just introduced new...
Is your loo Instagram ready? Probably not (the bathroom here at The Handbook is currently being plagued by ‘the phantom sh**tter’, so count us out), but unlike us thankfully the restaurants, bars and hotels of London not only have their loo brush game sorted, but they’ve got a...
When I read fortnight of free cocktails, I stopped everything I was doing and just stared at the sentence for a little bit. Free…cocktails… in what alternate-universe do such things exist? And where can I go to get my on my hands on such an alien concoction? Well, turns out not far away!...

Breakfast. It’s the most important meal of the day, or so they say, but it’s also the one we often “don’t have time” for. We’ve all seen the adverts of someone running out of the door, stumbling over shoes at the bottom of the stairs and grabbing a slice of burnt...
As the country bumpkin that I am, born and bred in the New Forest, I thought I would impart some village dweller wisdom to those lesser informed. The New Forest is a hot-spot for a good old country pub (think pie and ale propped up on a wooden bench). So to help visitors out, as they stumble past...
