An excellent bookshop by Brick Lane, the interior design is incredible and the selection unexpected. A good place to get lost in!

Great night walks.

A taste of Portuguese cafe culture on Golborne Road.

It is an independent arts organisation in Elephant and Castle. It is one of the best venue for electronic music in London. On Tuesdays Boiler Room, best DJs for free with guest list.

I grew up in Brighton which is full of cheesy bars like this. If you can handle being surrounded by multiple screens playing Kylie at full volume, its pretty much the cheapest bar in central london. The cliental is so varied its great for people watching and completely un pretentious.
