Covent Garden is my favorite place in London! It is located in the center of the most fun place in London, and the piazza is not big but feels spacious. There are performers doing stuff like singing, magic tricks and there are small classic concerts sometimes. The open market has a lot of cute hand-crafted goods. Good for window shopping... more

Covent Garden is a place where I always go when in London. The Piazza itself with the small boutiques and restaurant is very nice. Also there are a lot of shops on the nearby streets so this area is well worth a morning or afternoon spent there.

I visit London frequently so like to go to Covent Garden. The latest performer I have seen is "Covent Garden Juggler in pink pants". This performer was on for about an hour, very entertaining, funny.

The lure of Covent Garden is pretty lost on me I’m afraid.. It is a nice enough place with some interesting (albeit overpriced) shoppes, your standard fare jugglers and street performers and a few good restaurants. With all of the wonderful sights, fantastic eateries and dynamic shopping in this city though, why am I stopping here? It is fine if... more

I have spent 10 days in and around Covent Garden and it's just wonderful! The ares is very touristy and is the best area I've seen in London for shopping outside of Oxford Street. There are nice little restaurants, pubs on every street corner and it's just full of people so sometimes some interesting street performers come out. more
