J+A is a hidden and unpretentious café/ bar just off busy Clerkenwell Road - with outdoor seating!

Created a fair few beautiful shoot here, place image not by me

It's a beautiful place and the food is amazing.

Key community arts centre, near to Shoreditch High St station. The cinema is handy and the music programming is solid, but they also host a variety of other interesting nights, most notably Jawdance, London’s (arguably) best spoken word night

Probably my favourite building in the city, and right in the heart of it. There are always interesting events happening here, across art and music, and you can drink in the courtyard during summer
