Contemporary art gallery always showcasing interesting artists. Area is great and building is top

My favourite library when I was a student, I still love to wander and look up to its Renaissance sculptures. 

I’m not sure what I like best about this deli: the speck which was so good that I ‘accidentally’ ate the whole package of it before I got home, or the fact the staff are always so friendly even when I ask for my order in my terribly rusty Italian.

Every year I take my 25 year old mini on the London to Brighton run. The views from the start line are always worth the 4AM wake-up.

The best live jazz band I ever heard was at a packed out night in Brilliant Corners. I was happy to be squashed.
