AIDA sets their focus on independent and sustainable brands in their multi-concept store in the heart of East London. They offer anything from fashion, accessories to specialty coffee in their in-store café to yoga classes. Definitely one of our go-to places in Shoreditch! 

Down a quiet mews, around the corner from busy Shoreditch High Street, is a bar that seats 10 at most. This little cocktail joint is from the gang behind the Discount Suit Company and The Sun Tavern, and acts as the experimental testing ground for both. Try a Baklava (made with Irish whiskey, honey, pistachio and orange blossom) and then scoot along to one of its sibling spots for a dance.

This inventive, refreshing take on modern British food is worth the hype; the wine list alone is deserving of a visit. If the fried chicken is on rotation, you're in luck.

Leila's Shop is an eclectic neighbourhood cafe that serves up simple, delicious food using seasonal ingredients from the shop. We adore the ooey gooey brownies.
