Yes we know that this year's Fourth of July clashes with the election, but if you fancy going on during the evening before you go home to binge watch the results into the small hours of the morning, here's where to go.
Crayfish Bob - held every Thursday down at Gosnells Bar in Bermondsey, the Independence Day Louisiana crawfish boil by Crayfish Bob is an almost all-you-can-eat fest of crayfish. Tickets are £54 and include a glass of Gosnells mead.
Smith & Wollensky - you can always bank on this American steakhouse putting on a bash for the Fourth of July. This year's party features Rabbit Hole Bourbon cocktails, canapés and bowl food, featuring the finest U.S. beef and pork and classic American music to get the party going. Tickets are £50.
Passyunk Avenue - All three of Passyunk Avenue's restaurants in Waterloo, Battersea and Fitzrovia are going to be holding Independence Day celebrations with a range of food specials, live entertainment and live sports on the TV too.

Porte Noire - Idris Elba's King's Cross bar is putting on a Fourth of July dinner with dishes that include Philly cheesesteak egg roll, Henny glazed shrimp with deviled eggs and fried okra with gumbo mayo and Old Bay. It's £58 for three courses including a cocktail on arrival.
Darby's - In a perfect position beside the US Embassy, Darby's are making a weekend of it, celebrating on 6 July with WhistlePig bourbon, a big BBQ, crab sliders, picklebacks and music with a New Orleans-style brass band.
Oblix West - to celebrate America's independence from the UK with stellar views over London head to Oblix where for a week (1-7 July) they're serving an American take on afternoon tea. The menu will include freshly baked cranberry scones, apple, pecan and maple tart and red velvet cake with chocolate sauce.
