One of London's best kept secrets, Spiritual Bar is a small and super welcoming live music bar on a side road near Chalk Farm station. Always somehow busy but not too packed, they play host to most of London's best emerging blues, rock and folk musicians, and owner Raf is the nicest dude you could meet. And makes a serious mojito

A station, a stop or two away from London sits a shop that is only open once or twice a year – its specialty are books but it also sells things.

British folk culture inspired pub. Head there on Sunday for a pint and a proper Northern roast.

Fantastic place with great food and natural wine. Lovely energy and ideal with a group of friends or cozy with 2.

Ever since visiting the exhibition space, a few years ago, I don’t think I have ever missed one single show. It is one of the best exhibition spaces for contemporary art in London, in my opinion. The scale and the light feel right. The environment is not too overwhelming and not too small. In addition, the bookshop has a good selection of catalogues, art books and magazines.
