I can't pass without dropping in, Orcs Nest is a small independent boardgame, D&D etc store that's been around forever(1987)... and has the best logo. Good selection of games for younger kids too.
It has such a special vibe, it is very near Columbia Road and Broadway Market
It is surprising to find a farm in the middle of the city!
Very recommended having English Breakfast there :)
There is a rather beautiful faded glory to these mythical creatures, which flank the steps guarding the ruins of the Italian Terraces in front of the former Crystal Palace, which dramatically burnt down in 1936.
