A bustling under-ground vintage market famous for good reason. Go check it out and you won't be disappointed. 

Around the corner from Smithfield meat market, the original St. John is an institution of the British nose-to-tail movement. There’s also a Marylebone outpost, but we love this less formal Spitalfields offshoot as well as the custard-filled doughnuts coming out of its bakeries in Bermondsey and Neal’s Yard. A must-visit contemporary classic.

This historic East End boozer is our fave local spot. Their motto, "brewing beer full of flavours and creating places full of life", couldn't be more true. If you're in the mood for a wild night out, we always recommend The Ten Bells. Pint anyone? 

194Local is one of those hip, meticulously curated vintage shops where you can easily lose track of time. They're so cool we don't even know how to put it in words. It has quickly become a staple in the East London fashion scene for offering high-quality, rare pieces from iconic designers.
