An intimate live music venue in Dalston with lots of underground and experimental music you won't find anywhere else in London.

Home to hundreds of stray cats and dogs. 

The Hayward Gallery in Southbank center has held my favourite exhibitions in London and each time they are extremely well curated. Definitely a place to visit !

Quiet outdoor garden with bar and pizza meters away from the busy and vibrant Dalston main roads.

Getting lost is an age old suggestion but a good one. Put away your cell phone or your A-Z and just wander around. I still do this regularly even though Ive lived here for nearly 10 years. London is a big city and it drip feeds you its secrets sometimes. You will come across things you wouldn't usually, in amongst the Starbucks and pret a mange there are some amazing sights. Just 'being' somewhere is a great experience and one no guide book can help you find.
