Top Things to do in London
What to do and see in London, Canada: The Best Things to do Good for Couples
You’ll see double-decker buses and even the River Thames, but while London, Ontario, has clearly been inspired by its British namesake, this is a distinctly Canadian destination. Attractions like Fanshawe Pioneer Village, Banting House and Eldon House will captivate history buffs. Or indulge your, shall we say, slightly less cerebral side with a tour of the Labatt Brewery.

Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 504 reviews
At BATL, the Backyard Axe Throwing League, we believe throwing a killer party should be fun, simple, and full of bullseyes. Whether it’s a stag, bachelorette, team-building, birthday, or fundraising event, it deserves to be memorable. No matter what BATL location you visit across North America, you can expect delicious food and drinks, axe throwing lanes, expert coaching, and a fun tournament. Boredom sold separately.

I have loved visiting Pioneer Village since I was a child. It's a relaxing, fun day spent outside. You can wander the buildings as you wish and there are sometimes events and extra activities, as well as seasonal events. The staff is great and if you are interested, you can chat with them and learn so many things about history. It's a very good place to go to generate discussions with kids about historical life and show them examples in an accessible way. There are plenty of opportunities for photos of the houses, wildlife (mostly birds) and nature, farm animals, or taking portraits. I have taken my son since he was a toddler and he always enjoys it too. He is 6 and the last time we went, he didn't want to leave even after a few hours! It was not crowded at all (just steady) and very low key, which was great for a hot summer afternoon. The little cafe has just the right number of choices (soups, sandwiches, ice cream, etc.) and the food is always good. The gift shop has so many lovely and fun items in a range of prices that are very fair. It feels like being outside of the city even though it's not far at all. You can also go nearby to hiking trails, the campground, etc. I think almost anyone could have a great time here whether they are interested in history or not!

This is a great place to visit for food and handmade items. There's a lot of vendors that sell fruit, veggies, ready made food, coffee, etc. There's also vendors who sell furniture, antiques, crafted items, etc. It's a very cool place to visit on a Saturday. The Fritter Shop is a highlight!!

Went for a production of Mary Poppins, and was very pleased with the theatre. Very cool place to see a play or show. My only complaint would be that there's not much of a view on the balcony on the ends.
