ENJOY DRY JANUARY:

NoMad London

If you’re doing Dry January and starting to feel a little parched, the NoMad London hotel can help. It’s got a new cocktail menu featuring non-alcoholic iterations of classics like the Manhattan, with all the spice and warmth you’d expect from the boozy version. 

28 Bow Street, Covent Garden, WC2E 7AW

EMBRACE VEGANUARY:

Pastaio x Meera Sodha

Pastaio, the Soho spot known for its fresh pasta, has partnered with vegan chef Meera Sodha on a limited-edition Veganuary pasta dish featuring kimchi, tomato, sesame and a touch of gochugaru for heat. For each plate sold, 50p goes to The Trussell Trust charity that’s working to end UK hunger and poverty. Make a feast of it and dip into the restaurant’s regular green menu – we’re looking at the Aubergine caponata.

19 Ganton Street, Soho, W1F 9BN

BOOK AHEAD:

Mean Girls at Everyman

Get in loser, we’re watching Mean Girls. Everyman Cinemas is taking us back to the noughties with early screenings of Tina Fey’s new musical take on her classic film. It’s hosting ‘Super Fetch Party’ previews on 17th January, ahead of the film’s official UK release a couple of days later. Popcorn and cocktails are included for every guest and – because the 17th is a Wednesday – you obviously need to wear pink. Tickets from £24.65.

Various locations

TRY A NEW WORKOUT:

Reformcore

Maybe a new fitness class will help you hit those new year goals. From the minds behind Barrecore, Reformcore is a reformer Pilates experience that is all about results, with a curated playlist to help set the pace. The flagship studio opens on the King’s Road on Monday 15th January, with more spots to open soon.

EAT HEALTHY:

Bubala x The Salad Project

Lunch hotspot The Salad Project and Middle Eastern eatery Bubala have joined forces to create a Bubala bowl that’s available at Salad Project sites (Spitalfields, Bank, Oxford Circus and Battersea) until 11th February. Customisable to your liking, it features shawarma oyster mushrooms, green tahini and pickles, all loaded with Middle Eastern spice-infused rice.

SKILL UP:

Workshops At Hampton Manor

Starting this Saturday, Michelin-starred Hampton Manor is hosting regular workshops. There are three-hour Bread & Butter sessions (£90pp) where you can master the art of sourdough and learn butter-making techniques – at the very least you’ll leave with a sourdough, starter and handcrafted butter to take home. There are also Cinnamon Bun workshops (£60pp) which reveal the secrets behind the restaurant’s famous sweet treats.

Shadowbrook Lane, Hampton in Arden, Solihull, B92 0EN

GRAB A SPOON:

Ben & Jerry’s

If January for you is all about hunkering down until spring comes around, Ben & Jerry’s might just have dropped your new favourite film snack. It’s launched two new flavours: Marshmallow & S’more is loaded with its famous cookie dough chunks and toasted marshmallow swirls, while Oat of This Swirled is a non-dairy option packed with oat cinnamon cookies – ideal for Veganuary.

BOOK A TREATMENT:

Pre-

Pre- is the new salon in Islington to have on your radar. This one-stop beauty destination offers facials, brow and lash treatments, waxing and nail appointments. There’s also a private room on the lower ground floor for aesthetics, including injectables. At this time of year, we want the HydraFacial to gently exfoliate and add moisture back into the skin. 

325 Upper Street, Islington, N1 2XQ

SNAG A BARGAIN:

Pangaia Sample Sale
