Food Scene

This place is GREAT for vegans and veggies. Some of their classics include a full vegan fry-up for breakfast, vegan enchilada, vegan pizzas, Indonesian stew, tofu burger... I eat there way more often than I ought to!

A tiny place nestled on a corner, with friendly owners and fab coffee. Superb piece of street art on the wall outside which forms one panel in a street art comic created by a Brazilian artist. All the other panels are in Rio except this and one other in another London spot.

Super-friendly owners, an eclectic crowd, artsy and musicky. I love the "vegana clasica" vegan sandwich with grilled mediterranean vegetables and hummus. I eat here way too often as it is halfway between the tube and the flat...!

Drinks & Nightlife

A New York inspired tap room, with craft beers on tap and a wall full of fridges of bottled beers from around the world. The taps are identified only by number because the menu is changed and re-printed daily, and the only wine on offer is "sauvignon blanc" or "merlot". If you're a beer fan, this is the place to go.

Victoria Park is officially the nation's favourite park, having won the People's Choice in the Green Flag Awards for two years running. It's beautiful at any time of year but it was only the thought of sunlight hitting the yellow and brown leaves after a rainstorm that got me through my early-morning runs in the autumn! There's a boating lake, a Chinese pagoda, rose gardens, open fields, sport facilities and cafes all set within the park and pubs at every corner!

Entertainment & Activities

Cinema and arts space with exhibitions, live music, comedy, theatre, spoken word, lots of community-based projects bringing artists and local residents together. I saw the midnight showing of the new Star Wars here. A super-cool hub of goings-on.

Arts & Culture

Free museum with permanent collections as well as temporary exhibitions exploring childhood through the ages, from toys and dolls to clothing and customs. Equal parts nostalgic and educational!

Shopping

Fab food market on Saturdays, part farmers' market for fresh produce and part street food market for grabbing a lunch. On non-market days this street is still gorgeous to wander down, with cafes, restaurants, pubs, independent bookshops and a couple of antique shops to browse.
