Regent Street is one of London’s busiest and most famous thoroughfares, located in the trendy West End district. It connects both Oxford Circus and Piccadilly Circus, so there are a lot of blockbuster London sights nearby. The curved street is known for its architectural design, and you’ll also find plenty of designer boutiques here, along with pubs and restaurants.

That depends. If you’re more interested in admiring the buildings than ducking into any stores, the early morning provides the best photo opportunities—head here just after dawn for the golden hour. Otherwise, to shop, plan on the late afternoon or early evening; shops here stay open late on Thursdays.

Yes, Regent Street is surprisingly kid-friendly. While a busy shopping street doesn’t sound like any child’s cup of tea, families will find several options here. Check out the toys and in-store events at Hamleys, wait out a rainy day at Regent Street Cinema, or pop over to nearby St. James Park to see the pelicans.

Spring and summer are usually the best weather windows for visiting London. Check the calendar for the Summer Streets Festival, when Regent Street closes to traffic for pop-up events and shops for four Sundays during the season. December is another festive time, when Regent Street lights up with holiday decorations.
