OPSO has been a fixture in Marylebone since 2014, serving contemporary Greek cooking. The menu draws on traditional recipes with a modern turn, and the chefs work with seasonal ingredients sourced directly from Greece, so the dishes land somewhere between authentic and inventive. The atmosphere is relaxed and easy. It's as much about the drink and the room as the food. The ground-floor bar pours a curated set of Greek liqueurs and uses them in its own cocktails, chosen to sit well with the plates. In the dining room, a striking marble communal table pushes people towards sharing. It adds up to a genuine taste of Greek hospitality in central Marylebone.

Lita Marylebone is a Mediterranean bistro serving southern European cooking in Marylebone, London. The name comes from "abuelita", Spanish for grandmother, which hints at the kitchen's respect for traditional recipes alongside a more modern approach. The menu changes with the seasons and leans on fresh, high-quality produce, with each dish built to let those natural flavours come through. Open-fire cooking runs through much of it, lending a smoky depth to the classic Mediterranean plates. The setting is relaxed and stylish, which suits a casual lunch, a quieter dinner, or a larger group just as well. Grilled seafood, homemade pasta, and a considered list of Mediterranean wines all feature, and because the menu follows the seasons it keeps shifting through the year. The thread that holds it together is simple, well-made food meant to be shared.

Contemporary Applied Arts is London's original multi-disciplinary applied arts gallery, founded in 1948. It began elsewhere in the city and now works from Marylebone. The purpose is simple: to champion British craft and put people in front of work by leading makers. Expect curated exhibitions and a considered retail selection across ceramics, jewellery, textiles, glass, wood and metal. The space is calm and easy to walk, and staff explain technique, materials and care so choices feel informed. The gallery's depth comes from its membership model and a long history of public engagement, with the team curating across disciplines with an eye on design and making skill. Regular shows and a changing display keep the offer fresh. It is a registered charity and a regulated company with transparent governance, and it recently marked 75 years. In Marylebone this adds up to a dependable place to see well-made work, get real product knowledge and leave with clear documentation, sizing where it matters and advice on display and upkeep.

Honest Burgers sits on the Marylebone side of Baker Street, a relaxed spot for people after fresh, well-made food. The chain was founded over a decade ago and has built its name on local ingredients: top-quality beef, hand-cut chips and seasonal specials. Every burger is made fresh to order, so there is a bit of a wait, but it shows in the plate. The Baker Street location keeps things casual, which suits a quick lunch or catching up with friends. The kitchen prepares its British beef patties in-house, and the rosemary chips are cut fresh each day. Beyond the regular menu there are creative specials built around locally inspired flavours, so repeat visits rarely look identical. Craft beers and soft drinks round out the offer. It is a straightforward, quality-focused burger stop with a clear leaning towards sourcing and sustainability.
