Classic independent cinema in the heart of Dalston. Good vibes and films. Support your local cinema!

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.

By far the best bagels in London, they are open 24 hours and being just down the road from my flat a bit too local. It is run by a man called Mr Sammy, who doesn't muck about with portion size. It is well worth a visit especially for their smoked salmon and cream cheese speciality.

Open until late night.  Make sure to sit down for the best hand pulled noodles

Built by my Dad and I in the rafters of an old peanut factory in Hackney Wick, I have slept and scribbled in this space for a number of years now. I enjoy being instantly confronted by the days task as soon as I wake. Despite the lack of natural light and paper thin walls this studio is great place to produce work. By far my favourite edition to the space of late has been my hammock.
