Currency to Use in London

Currency to Use in Londonにまつわる興味深い視点を分かりやすく発信ます。

Let’s paint a picture. £10 is about the price of a delicious burger and a drink at a local pub. Or a mediocre sandwich in a glass box if you’re near the skyscrapers. But £5? That’s a warm coffee and a pastry from a small bakery on a rainy day. Priceless. And £50? That buys you a decent ticket to a West End musical—or a ridiculously huge Sunday roast with all the trimmings.

Compare it to New York: in London, your card won’t get declined because you’re three cents short (they don’t do that here). And compared to Tokyo: no need to bow when handing over cash, but a polite “thank you” goes a long way.
